Love love love your recipes! Quick tip for oxo cubes, if you pull the flap bits out to make it like a rectangle and gently crush the contents, you get a little sachet of powder stock! So easy to then sprinkle over food 😊😊 xxx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh yes I do that with my cubes.. never used to until someone told me this trick.. I didn’t even know that was what you were meant to do!! I love this new revelation:) xxx

[@ayeshamumplus4486]

OMG all of those dishes look amazing, will definitely be trying as I’ve notice I seem to be repeating meals quite a lot, I guess you just get in to a rut and it’s easier and no thinking involved. You’re an amazing cook x

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh yes it’s so easy to get into a rut.. I really try and make different meals each week but mainly because I enjoy cooking and get so bored of eating the same things all the time!!!xxx

[@Sarah-ft8jr]

Lovely ideas, especially the lettuce as wraps and the salmon dish. Thanks so much for sharing x

[@KerryWhelpdale]

the lettuce instead of the wrap is delicious.. so much crunch and you feel much healthier eating it :) so glad you like these meals :) xxx

[@wallacelawrence8234]

pro tip: you can watch movies on Flixzone. Been using them for watching a lot of movies recently.

[@adonisignacio1100]

@Wallace Lawrence Definitely, I have been watching on Flixzone for months myself :D

[@luciekate1448]

The salmon looks amazing! Gonna try that for Friday night 😍

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh my goodness.. honestly that ( oh and the curry) are my favourite xxx

[@kellyjackson5512]

Doing my meal planning for the week, means Kerry viewing xxx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yay.. ruddy LOVE this comment 😘😘😘😘

[@MrsHRPufnstuf]

Thanks for these ideas Kerry. My favourite hack for lasagne is using crème fraîche scooped out of the tub and put on the ragu sauce rather than make a white sauce. Tastes so yummy and less washing up too. Also I reckon it is less fattening - especially if I use the reduced fat version.

[@kellydsw4740]

Another fab video Kerry!! Always love watching them!! You always give me such inspiration from your cooking to your DIY projects!! X

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Thank you Kelly.. I’m so glad they inspire you and you like watching them :) xxx

[@brittanydummett4116]

Try before you put the liquid in for the curry add the spices so the fry a little it makes it more fragrant:)

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yes I do that now and it definitely makes a huge difference.. thank you 😘😘😘

[@jonip83]

Break up your stock cube while still in the wrapper, it saves you getting it all over your fingers 👍🏼

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yes someone else told me this a while ago and it’s such a good hack.. I never knew this :) thank you 😘😘😘

[@binglebelle6267]

If you cook with spices a lot consider getting them at an Asian supermarket. You will get much more for your money than in those little jars. Love your channel

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh yes that’s such s good idea.. I didn’t think of doing that.. I do cook with spices all the time so I will definitely do that from now on.. thanks for the tip xxx

[@binglebelle6267]

Kerry Whelpdale along with the spices you use regularly you might discover new ideas. Keep y9ur old spice jars and reuse tuen

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yes I actually did that today for the first time! Bought a big bag of cinnamon and put some of it into my jar :) xxx

[@binglebelle6267]

Kerry Whelpdale I use a lot of cinnamon and turmeric it's so good for you

[@KerryWhelpdale]

It really is :) xxx

[@UktiJuma]

Oh the risotto is perfect for baby food idea with texture too! 👍

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yes definitely.. it’s perfect for the whole family :) xxx

[@lucie.houchin]

THAT SALMON THOUGH!! So yummy x

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh my gosh.. soooo damn yummy 👌👌👌

[@jules_1980]

Just been to the shop and bought some Garam Masala after seeing the chickpea curry recipe in your 2 pound meal video. I love that 99% of the ingredients you use are store cupboard items that I have on hand already

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh that’s my main thing.. I have to have the ingredients at home or the dish won’t be made! The more simple the better for me :) xxx

[@traceyzvirblis4909]

Hi Kerry, im new to your channel, stumbled onto your meals for £2 video & have watched a few others too. Gosh you have some amazing looking meals & make them look so easy. Love that they are frugal too. Think youve just got a new subscriber here 👍😊 Cheers from North Queensland Australia 👋👋👋

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Aahh thank you so very much for subscribing and I really hope you like my future content too :) xxx

[@Foodielaura]

I'm so with you on buying a side of salmon it makes it much cheaper

[@KerryWhelpdale]

So sooo much cheaper :) it’s defo the way forward! Xxx

[@ayshakhatun6669]

I am new to your channel, I am loving all your foodie videos. Very simple varied meals can't wait to try some out. X

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Thank you so much for subscribing and I am so glad you are enjoying the meals too :) xxx

[@stefaniereeve]

Trying all of these this week! Thanks for the inspiration lovely! xx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yay :) let me know how you get on xxx

[@baetoulk5888]

you should put a layer of pasta down in the pan first thing for the lasagna instead of the meat layer, it'll hold everything together much better. also the béchamel sauce would taste much better with salt and pepper especially added.

[@KerryWhelpdale]

If I ever put pasta down first then it gets stuck to the bottom of the dish!!! Am I doing something wrong with it sticking?? Xxx

[@baetoulk5888]

i like putting down a layer of butter and garlic first, then some of the tomato sauce on the bottom of the pan, then the pasta overtop! that'll stop it from sticking!

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Ohhh ok.. I’ll try that next time I make it :) xxx

[@jules_1980]

Kerry Whelpdale I was taught to do white sauce first then pasta to start the first layer as the sauce gets absorbed into the pasta sheets and it never sticks (unless burn)

[@cm-ft8wd]

This used to happen to me all the time!! Now I spray my dish with fry light (any flavour) then put a layer of lasagne sheets on the bottom. Life saver keeps the lasagne together and it saves time on the cleaning of the dish 😃. Great meal ideas Kerry. Thanks ❤️

[@brittanydummett4116]

I’m a new subscriber love the meal ideas 💜💜 from Australia c

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Aahh thank you so much for subscribing :) I hope you like my future content too 😘😘

[@biancalawrence3178]

First visit. Lovely to see someone who uses vegetables. I am not a vegetarian but do love my vegetables and so many of these other meals of the week channels contain no vegetables and are heavy on the starches. (Except for What's for tea - she's brilliant). I also cannot believe how much stuff you can buy like chopped onion. We don't get that here. Must save a lot of work. I want to try your chickpea curry this week. Thank you for the ideas.

[@charlottem255]

That curry looks lovely xx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh my gosh.. it’s amazing I promise :) xxx

[@mariahtr]

Does anyone else find the portions small?? 😋

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh really?! I always think I give huge portions as my kids are utter beasts and eat sooo much!!! Maybe it’s deceptive on the camera!! Lol xxx

[@tipoftheiceberg1793]

Maybe it's because we eat too much lol

[@claireyoung7568]

Great meal ideas. im still oven less so will try out some of these for sure. Did you know that an oxo cube packet is made so you can unfold the corners and squash the cube then open it up and the crumbled cube just pours out- i thought i had learned that from you ha ha but maybe not. xx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Yes I did know that but for some reason I never do it! No no u didn’t learn that from me because even though I know that I never do it! Hahahah xxx

[@claireyoung7568]

Ha ha not sure where I saw that then?! Your meals always look so lovely and tasty 😋

[@KerryWhelpdale]

They really are!! So delicious and very easy to make :) xxx

[@christinejames5286]

I know I am two and a half years late watching this, haha, but wondering why you use soy sauce in your red sauce for your lasagna? I've never once heard of this before and I'm beyond intrigued! ♥

[@KerryWhelpdale]

I don't actually know why I started adding this into my sauce but its super delicious with it in... adds a little something to the sauce and gives it more depth too :) xxx

[@belladigitalworld]

LOVE your food videos doll! x

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Aahh thanks lovely.. so glad you do :) xxx

[@ClaireD79]

These were all such amazing ideas I can't wait to try them out! I've found if though you can make the the white sauce even quicker by using hot milk though! prevents the sauce going lumpy and it thickens up a lot quicker! :)

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oohh that’s a good idea with the white sauce.. I’ll try that next time.. I do t know why but I just love making white sauce.. it’s so therapeutic to me!! Am I weird!! Lol xxx

[@ClaireD79]

Yeah it works really well!! Aw I totally understand I always make my own sauces, much easier and cheaper!😂

[@KerryWhelpdale]

So much healthier and cheaper.. and then I know exactly what I’m feeding the kids too :) xxx

[@jaydeybaby5022]

I’m hungry now 🤣 great meals x

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Haha they are all so delicious:) xxx

[@jeorgiacook]

These all look so delicious! xxx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh my goodness.. they totally are I promise😘😘😘

[@hayleyrichardson3343]

Lasagna should be made with lamb mince

[@nurseystn9321]

Oh God, I love your videos. Sorry if it seems like arse licking but you are so likeable and relatable xx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Aahh thank you so much and I am so so so glad you like my videos :) that makes me sooo happy 😘😘😘

[@LaraJoannaJarvis]

Loved these twinnie. You should try the "pregnant jools' pasta" by Jamie Oliver, it's a sausage Ragu and tastes divine!!!! Xx

[@KerryWhelpdale]

ohh I've never heard of that before.. I now need to go and find it! xxx

[@tiredmummy7739]

Great ideas x

[@KerryWhelpdale]

So glad you like them :) xxx

[@katiesmith7645]

I think the first meal was supposed to say "sausage and fennel risotto" not "sausdage and fennel risotto" 😅😅😅 lol

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Haha oops!! I didn’t even realise that in the edit!!! Xxx

[@olearymiriam]

Great video Kerry

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Thank you :) so glad you like it :) xxx

[@emmag6255]

Brilliant video 👍🏻

[@KerryWhelpdale]

So glad you liked it :) 😘😘

[@lizzyahill4481]

Hey Kerry Do you have a link for the curry recipe? As I didn’t see quantities of spices, etc?? THANKS

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Hi Lizzy.. if you go to my last Sunday’s recipe you will find the quantities in that video there :) it’s under vegan meal ideas :) xxx

[@lizzyahill4481]

Kerry Whelpdale I could only find your lentil curry!

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oh no I’m so sorry I thought that was the one you wanted.. I promise I’ll put the ingredients list on this one for u this evening xxx

[@reiyak7849]

New subscriber here. You really remind me of Emily Norris!

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Thank you so much for subscribing and watching 😘😘😘

[@pbf2681]

You must get through so many stock cubes!

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Hahaha yes I do!! I do love a stock cube in my meals.. they add so much flavour! Lol xxx

[@kellydsw4740]

Try putting half a vegetable stick cube in your scrambled egg when cooking, honestly, it sounds iffy!! But I assure you it’s so yummy!! X

[@KerryWhelpdale]

Oohh I bet that would be amazing.. I’m going to do that tomorrow morning.. thanks for the tip xxx

[@antoninajucovscaia8439]

I love bulgur, it is so good and filling!

[@KerryWhelpdale]

That’s my favourite :) and it’s so healthy for you too :) xxx

[@sadiafambam4996]

I am coming Kerry 😜🤣😂its so yum.

[@KerryWhelpdale]

😂😂😂

[@Martha-xr8yc]

What is a vegetable venal? 🤔

[@KerryWhelpdale]

It’s fennel.. it’s not a very well known vegetable but it’s totally delicious :) xxx
