Thank you so much for that, I am going to ask if I may have the lemon drizzle recipe later and will post that here, hope I can make it as well as she can.
I am cooking for my husband and some of his friends at the weekend, would it be ok if I did your trifle for dessert?

Oh, yes - of course. It may be that your owner would like less pink. There is an aniseed variant using aniseed (black) absinthe which is nice with vanilla ice cream. Perhaps in this weather crčme fraîche would be better but I've never tried it and don't think it would go very well with aniseed.
If you can find caraway vodka, that would be nice perhaps decorated with a small amount of dried chilli. This might sound odd, it is delicious though, make the base as a blue cheese cheesecake and build it up from there with cream and berry pulp, you can even top it off with thick sweet vinegar. But if he's OK with the pink, serve it just as it is.
ALTERNATIVE IF HE DOESN'T LIKE PINK
1. BLUE CHEESE CHEESECAKE AS THE BASE
2. BERRY-THEMED LAYER
this was the best graphic I found at short notice (or
use berry pulp / black cherries) & for a single serve
pack some cheesecake underneath it first - in bowl.
3. BALSAMIC VINEGAR OF MODENA

As this is not my place I will stay low on the pasta recipes for a bit. You mentioned the citrus tastes for a bit. And I am pretty sure the people you are cooking for like their red meats. Maybe this can give you some inspiration? It seems pretty easy and besides the tasters not approving the citrus taste it looks pretty good:
Jeremiah 6:21 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his friend shall perish.
Best wishes for the people in Ukraine.

Thank you so much Sir. That looks amazing, I love the idea of doing steak for them but not sure if my budget will stretch.
Definitely tempted to that sort of route but may struggle to get that pepper over here.

Budget is an issue here too. Getting the ingredients like pepper is not. What ingredients do you miss? Maybe this forum can help out.
With a bit of luck the ladies over here will allow me to post a pasta recipe.Those recipes are in general well received and not that expensive.

Still getting used to being given a budget to work with at all lol, everyday is a school day.
Something pasta based had been my first thought, but that steak looked so good and i am sure it would please the men and their sons.

Some here are still interested in your recipes. Would you care to share one of those?

Copy pasting some random recipe? Not even cleaning it up to make it seem your own?

I apologise, you are correct that I cut and pasted but it is not a random recipe, rather one that we use regularly.
I accept that I went for an easy shortcut and that was in error, let me try again.
Alternatively is it just the fact that I use some recipes from the internet that is the issue and the expectation is for more original recipes?
Thank you for your guidance.

Pay no attention, Roland. In London, Sichuan peppercorns are readily available to anyone with the brains to know where Sichuan is and enter the appropriate grocery store.
Vaccinated by the love of Jesus!!!

Indeed you are correct Joanna, I should have consulted Google before posting. I had never seen it before but apparently it is available in supermarkets here.

Oh, my! That does sound delicious, dear Miss Kerry, and I do thank you for sharing this with us. I must say, I am particularly impressed by the maple syrup and pecans atop the mixture of garlic, minced beef, tomato, zucchini, sage and soy sauce. Goodness; I must make this sometime for the girls at my Wednesday Afternoon McGill Street Ladies' Bible Study, Prayer Meeting and Tea & Social. Sister Hortense will swoon over this! Now, is this dish sometimes enveloped in decorative pate a choux cases?

I must admit, that bit seemed a bit excessive to me (especially with the 2 tsp and then 2 tbsp of brown sugar listed separately). And garlic with sweet potato?.... That sounds like an interesting combination although I'm not willing to experiment with it in my kitchen!
I would also like to know what kind of capsicum is suited best for this recipe?... I'm sure Roland would like it to be Naga Morich. I still have a few ghost peppers left from the last growing season. Would these be appropriate to use in this recipe?

I am not sure about that recipe but it looks like something I would eat. Given that all is cooked in an appropriate order and not ended up into some soggy mush.
As for the capsicum, there is a simple solution. If you want sweet with a bite: Carolina Reaper from Caramelz is a quick fix. It is sweet, caramelized and those Carolina reapers have a pleasant heat. And for those ghost peppers, I just toss them in any dish that can have them. I just make sure I don´t have my brother and his family over, they squirm over just about anything.
Picture of a Carolina reaper, not to scale.

And, just think of how economical this would be, dear Sister Basilissa. All one would have to do is to throw those peppers into a cold skillet and then let them cook themselves — no gas required!

I had never considered using anything other than plain old bell peppers to be honest.
I must admit that personally I struggle with the sweetness, but the men love it and that is what matters.
Thank you for your thoughts and comments.
