- but was persuaded, & did a test piece. 15 mins & it was great.

So - stuffed courgette tomorrow! White Volunteer. And we've got the seeds as well.

I'm fairly broad minded, but the flesh looked a bit washy and was also rock hard. And it had been sitting out on a bench for a month or so!

In fact, it cooked up really well. So AGA Baked Marrow today.

So - here it is!!

But a caveat - if, in the AGA recipe, you use ground/minced steak - as opposed to the s/market beef, you need oil to fry it all in.

But if you use steak, as I do, omit the first action - see above.

Actually, now you mention it, I forgot the cheese this time. Still nice.!!

Tim - you have inspired me to follow your example. Have several monsters lying about the place which I would probably end up dumping otherwise. Thank you.

Love oyster sauce, Yuet!

How do you steam 8 large rings?  On a rack over a large pan? But does the filling not fall out?

There's always another way!

Chopped chicken/bacon/roast peppers/soured cream/parsley.

And I remembered the cheese this time!!

Well - it worked!!

Meat pre-cooked, of course. You might want to mince the bacon if you find it a bit bitty just chopped.
