Not sure what to make

OMG, that looks sooo good!  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks all!  Sorry, I went to sleep early last night and have to run out now.  Will have a look when I get back.

(Just making sure these are easy!  I'm seriously not good with more then 5 ingredients   If I have to ask Rich for help, well, yeah. )

How about soup? I made Gordon Ramsey's butter bean, chorizo and red onion soup tonight, definately a company dish; it's quick (like 20 minutes) and really super delicious.

Unfortunately I can't find the recipe on the internet. If you want it I can post it for you.

Definitely interested, if you don't mind posting this one!!

Here it is. This is now officially my favorite soup!

225g Chorizo sausage, skin removed
 3tbsp olive oil, plus extra to drizzle
 2 red onions, peeled and finely chopped
 2 garlic cloves, peeled and very finely sliced
 Few thyme sprigs
 2 x 420g cans butter beans, drained and rinsed
 Sea salt and black pepper
 Squeeze of lemon juice
 Large handful of flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped


1. Chop the chorizo into small bit-sized pieces. Put the kettle to boil.
2. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based saucepan and add onions, garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes then add the chorizo. Stir over a high heat for a few minutes until the oil has taken on a reddish-golden hue from the chorizo.
3.Tip in the butter beans and pour in just enough boiling water to cover them. Bring to a simmer and cook gently for about 10 minutes.
4.Season generously with salt and pepper and add a squeeze of lemon juice. Scatter over the chopped parsley and ladle the soup into warm bowls to serve.

I'm getting some chorizo from the butcher on Saturday and trying this soup on Sunday!  It looks amazing.

As you wish!  It's all about the dressing.  I could eat that dressing on just about anything.

Thank you! It sounds really good. I can't wait to try it.

ooh that chorizo soup sounds yummy!  We'll have to try it when I can have chorizo again!

Crustless quiche?

4 eggs
250g cottage cheese
115 g shredded cheese
115 g chopped up ham
1/2 tsp english mustard

Beat eggs then combine with cottage cheese. 
Add shredded cheese and mustard.
place ham in flan dish (I use a silicone one) and pour mixture over.

Bake in center of oven at Gas mark 5 or 190 C for about 40 minutes (until firm and golden brown on top).

I often tweak this by using cottage cheese with pineapples in or adding bits of pepper or cooked spinach or whatever veg.  Can also substitute salmon, turkey or cooked bacon for the ham.  I've also done it cheese only by upping the amount of shredded cheese and leaving out the meat.

I know we all made fun of Delia, but you might want to try one of her Cheat's recipes if you want something simple with very few ingredients. There are a few here. The spinach tortelloni sounds yummy!

Here it is. This is now officially my favorite soup! 225g Chorizo sausage...

Cheers for that - I think I'll be making it tonight.  It sounds like a dish that is fairly traditional food (home cooking) in Spain, which I have been wanting to make/try - yours sounds fab & saves me the trouble of searching for a recipe!  I may experiment with a different type of white bean though. 

Stacey, what did you end up making? Did you already do it?

Pizza

Thank you all for your great suggestions.  I've copied them down for next time.

Just wanted to say that I just made this using some left over grilled chorizo and pork (pinchos morunos)I had from last night!

I added some green pepper with the onion and some cherry tomatoes halved and a bit of rosemary with the thyme.  I also used a bit of chicken broth.

I subbed white beans for the butter beans.

It is wonderful!  Thanks for the recipe!  I had vaguely remembered it and it was perfect for what I had on hand.
