A MUST Try Quick Ham & Leek Pasta! 

Let's go full pedant and add another for the water! P.S. A belated happy birthday.

@@neilpickup237 haha thanks matey

I think this is gonna be a regular on the 'I'm knackered but I hafta cook something' meal rota. Loving the fancy rolling wine rack 😄

Hope you enjoy mate!

Cheers pal

Thank you Poppy x

Thank you Jane x

Enjoy!

I love it!

I love recipes like this because they are so easily adaptable. You can use different flavoured cream cheeses, add disgusting mushrooms if you want to 🤣

@@Adam_Garratt Love it! Rape Seed Oil, Chopped Ham with chopped Button Mushrooms, Grated Cheese, and some slivers of Garlic and Chilli, together with a choice of Spaghetti, Linguine, or Tagliatelle, and loads of freshly ground Black Pepper Corns, make a tasty Italian for me, any time of the day...or night!...LOL...😊...😊...!

Bacon would be fab in this. Or gammon too

I think I was just being impatient with the thing 🤣

It was a challenge to find something that would fit under the counter top, but yeah it was a great purchase. I can wheel it out and use the top as prep space when I need to as well

Handy for a tripod too! ​@@Adam_Garratt

True that

@ttabood7462 same mate same. In fact I've just sautéed some off just now for another recipe I'm working on

Type in 'costway serving trolley' into amazon and it will come up. £89 for the white one. You'll need beer and patience putting it together though. It was a pain in the arse for me. 🤣

Yep! 😋

Wadge! 😂

Thank you mate

Spiders they are called. Bloody brilliant things they are.

lol @adam testscreen

adding the pasta turned it immediately into a meal for eight. Just sayin. :-)

I'm easily pleased 🤣

I do get offered a fair few, but I rarely accept them. I have got a cheeky product review coming though which is a bit of a fun thing.

@cherbeatTX59 I don't know why I thought this, but for some reason I thought you couldn't get leeks in America 🤣

​@@Adam_Garratt we aren't that uncivilized 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank you! Cheers!

Glad you like them!

It's getting there. Still need some more shelving really, and I need to do something about the ridiculous plastic back splash behind the hob. But I love it, it's a cosy little kitchen. Thank you lovely, have a great Sunday x

I think I'm going to get a manual one next time. Never had an issue with those

Yes mate 😉

You're welcome mate. You can also experiment with the different flavours they do. Sweet chilli, chives and they even do a salmon one. Swap the ham out for tuna maybe for that one

Hope you enjoy mate

Aww thanks! Turkish barbers near me. They always do a fab job with what little I have left these days 🤣

@@Adam_Garratt Don't tell Reform!

@Lindapevs such an exciting game wasn't it! Sweet Caroline bah bah baaah! ⚽️⚽️

@@Adam_Garratt sure was. I'm so looking forward to Sunday. I'm absolutely going to be hanging Monday 😂😂 I need a good hangover cure.

You can do so much with it too

@steveday4797 oh bless him, I'm so sorry he's going through it! Hopefully better times ahead mate

@@Adam_Garratt thanks Adam

You noticed 🤣

@junebenson01 Thanks June. Plus, it can hold 9 bottles of wine! 🤣

@@Adam_Garratt Not for long in my house! haha

Thank you Lisa x. I'm not sure if it's available in the U.S (I imagine it will be). But this exact type was called 'Costway kitchen serving trolley' on amazon if you want the same one. I paid £89

@@Adam_Garratt Thank you, Adam! I was just perusing the different types of trolley available, but I will check out that brand as I might be here too. Thank you, again!😊 🙏

Thanks Joanne x

Thank you Andrea x

😋

Cheers pal

@jonathanbailey1810 that's a lovely thing to do. Hope you both enjoy

Same. Or hendersons relish, I love both

You're welcome Pete

Thank you Louisa

@simonbaker5972 thank you pal

Enjoy my friend!

Thank you

You can also experiment with the different flavours. I think they do a chilli one too

That's a lovely thing to say mate. Thank you so much!

@@Adam_Garratt My pleasure, mate. Oh, and another thing. I have the very same digital kitchen scale. That "unst" thing used to drive me up the wall, but the solution is actually very simple. Luckily, you don't need to replace the batteries as it's not about the battery. The scale does this when you switch it on while already having placed a heavy-ish dish or bowl on it. I know you do that because you want to measure only the things you put in said bowl without the weight of the bowl. So you can fix the "unst" thing in two ways. Either switch the scale on without anything placed on it, and when you put your bowl on it, it will display the weight of the bowl, but just push the on/off button lightly so the display will switch back to zero. Or if you have your bowl on the scale and you switch it on and the "unst" thing appears, just lift the bowl up momentarily and push the on/off button lightly to make the display show 0 instead of "unst" - and when you put the bowl back down, the display will show the weight of the bowl but just push the on/off button again to make it show zero. Hope this helps :)

@justneedalogin ahhh! So that's what it is! Thanks for that mate I'll remember that for next time

@@Adam_Garratt No worries, happy to help :)

@Mike_5 thank you mate!

@@Adam_Garratt You are very welcome Buddy 🙃

John! 🤣

Cheers fella, enjoy!

Awesome stuff. Would work in this recipe too

Ah good spot mate, thank you! Added it in

Can't say I've noticed that mate

Swap out for something like savoy cabbage or broccoli Tina x

@@Adam_Garratt that sounds good, thanks Adam x

No, it's used cooking oil from a fried chicken recipe I'm working on. I didn't want to throw it away 🤣

These were from asda mate

Aye you can do that, it's just not a habbit I'm used too

Easier to just bung the pasta in cold water and turn the heat on - and probably a bit quicker and cheaper too. Exceptions are fresh pasta and (for me) long pasta such as spaghetti. I find that the water is more starchy at the end as well so better for adding to the sauce.

@@andyleighton3616 Do you boill water for tea and coffee in a pan rather than a kettle?

@@martinspencer1618 Kettle of course. Not that it has anything to do with things. Cooking pasta is partly about hydration which doesn't require the water to be boiling, and partly about getting it up to temperature. So putting pasta in cold water means that it starts to hydrate as the water heats, and so needs less time at boiling.

​@@andyleighton3616 I'll split the difference then and start with lukewarm water

I actually have successfully grown peas this year as well. I should have added a few in
