Me and the wife are cooking for each other on Saturday. She's doing starter and dessert, I'm doing the main course.

We've just moved house and our oven is *terrible*. What can I cook that just uses four hob rings? (I also have a steamer, if that helps).

Suggest away.

whose in charge of the afters ?

Steak and proper chips.

Fajitas. Simple to make and I think they're a fun food when you serve up in a build your own style.

Any chance of you getting good fish down there?

Spaghetti Bolognese

Ali, what does Mrs H like?

What sort of meals? Light, hearty, meat, fish, summery, Mediterranean, spicy etc etc

What would she order in a restaurant?

Pork chops or pork belly, creamed cabbage, bacon lardons served with mash potatoes and any other veg of your choice.

A very easy dish and very very tasty.

Thanks all.

Mark, she has a very varied taste and likes most things. She'd normally order something that we wouldn't necessarily think of cooking at home; perhaps some unusual fish or game, something 'exotic' (Thai or Indian).

Her favourite local restaurant is Greek.

A nice lamb tagine on the hob?

You could cook some heart shaped pasta to go with the bolognese, if you're not happy with my suggestion of spaghetti bolognese

Assuming you can buy heart shaped pasta that is I know you can buy penis shaped pasta

I love bolognese, but it's something I'd cook fairly regularly and not too much of a challenge.

I'll probably pass on penis shaped anything!

Something different and Indian - Google Simon Hopkinson's tomato curry - replace the large tomatoes with cherry tomatoes (and don't peel or prepare, just bung in whole - makes life easier). Curry leaves make a difference if you can get them.

It's red so Valentines'ish, and tomatoes are also known as love apples.

Raita of mint (sauce) sugar and yoghurt (maybe a bit of turmeric for colour). Quarter or two of lime on the side.
