Hi Jamie

mine isn't a cooking question, its a product one  , hubby said he would buy me a mixer for my birthday - but which one, I like the look of the Kitchenaid, but have always used a kenwood before, which would you advise

Thanks

Kate

I can't get things crispy when I roast them, like chicken, or potatoes. I think it's because my oven is electric, but even when I use the old, heating up the fat in the oven and then putting the spuds in- trick I can't seem to get them to go crispy. My friends suggested I cheat and do roast spuds in the deep fryer but it's not the healthiest option. Everything I roast ends up looking poached.

Nice to hear from you Deb. Here is my fav recipe for the perfect roast potatoes with a few tips on how to get them extra crispy

Hi Jamie,
I am obsessed with cooking and can't stop talking about it! It is the thing I believe I can go to if I have had a bad day at school! ( I am bullied alot) I am only 16 but was chosen for your Food Revolution Day! It was an honour to be part of it! I have a few questions I know they are not about cooking but any way:
1.What is your youngest childhood memory?
2.Would I be able to study with you in 3 and a half years old?
3Have you ever thought about doing a show or demonstration in South Africa?

I am sending a package to Danny via the post please make sure you get it. It is about what I have done to get involved in Food Revolution Day as well as all my atchievementss in my cooking life!

So excited can't wait to hear from you!!

Thank everyone for your questions - forum members, please do what you do best and answer as many as you can. Keep the questions coming please and I will check things out here next week. Couple of good questions on cooking the perfect pizza, I am going to ask Danny to get some answers from my good mate Chris Bianco, there's nothing about pizza making that he does not know!

Have a great weekend everyone wherever you are. Post up some pics of what you are cooking in the blogs if you get a chance.

Nice one
