A delicious recipe which I made in the crock pot, and it worked beautifully this way! Used Bordeaux wine and fresh thyme from my garden and used two onions as we like onions. I served this steamed potatoes and carrots with peas. Made for Thyme, the January Herb in the French Forum and Two for One leftovers in the Photo's Forum, many thanks for posting. FT:-)

I'm an American living in London since I got married in 1994 (except for a brief stint in New Jersey, and then Luxembourg). I work part-time for a national charity and also study social sciences part-time with the Open University. Keeps me busy, but I still find plenty of time to cook and search for 'zaar recipes!
Over time my cooking has meshed English and American customs together, especially at holiday time. I make a mean Christmas fruitcake complete with Fondant Icing and marzipan, but I still have a Christmas cookie party for my friends where I introduce (or subject!) them to all my favorite cookie recipes. My husband and two kids will happily eat Shepherd's Pie or Sloppy Joes, cheese and onion or grilled cheese sandwiches. The comparisons go on and on...
