Someone asked for his pasta recipe and James has replied. ;D Here it is then: Cheesy pasta for 2 Ingredients: 2 big handfulls of pasta tubes, grated mousetrap cheddar, knob of butter twice the size of a matchbox, approx 1 heaped tblspn plain flour, full fat milk, bits of bacon. Method: Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in the four gradually until you get a goo. Cook this for a minute or two. Put the pasta on to boil at about this time. Add the milk gradually to the goo, stirring constantly. Don�t put the heat on too high. When all the milk is in and bubbling a bit add the cheese, with more stirring. Strain the pasta, rinse it with boiling water, add it to the cheesy sauce, serve. Frying scraps of bacon in a pan and adding them, with the fatty juices, to the cheesy sauce improves all of this hugely. LOL - bless him. One to add to the recipe thread then...James May's Cheesy Pasta for Two... ;D |

Someone asked for his pasta recipe and James has replied. And that someone was me! James certainly does know how to excite a woman. In several different ways. |

Aah, someone was bound to ask for the recipe sooner or later! Just the luck of the draw. I love to cook so this will definitely be on my to-do-list. Cheese and pasta - two of my favourite things  As a side note: James has also commented on an older column this morning. Perhaps he has been busy and finally has a chance to catch up. I complain about working a 38 hour week...I dare not even think how many hours James works. www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/columnists/jamesmay/3415903/Theres-no-need-to-reinvent-the-wheel.html |

That does sound yummy, but I'd have to improvise since I have high cholesterol. Like I posted there, I'd love to try it for pot luck dinners.  Congratulations, Aaurora and Astolmaid.   |

I know he's got big hands - well, you can tell just by looking - but I use five of my fistfuls for the two of us and that's about 4 ounces. So by my calculations it was a massive portion for one - and what a faff if it's just yourself; a normal portion and a mingy one for two; or his hands are really the size of shovels!  |

Sorry. I'm rubbish at poetry. He'll have to settle for short stories from me. |

Especially when they're trying to relax and enjoy the best thing in the world - a pint. EDIT - I think I know who you're talking about. I just checked DT. That's horrible to be under constant watch and not have any privacy. I just hope it doesn't go any further or this person leaves him alone. He doesn't deserve this. |

That is conduct above and beyond. I read the short ones and only when I recognise a name do I venture into something with more than 5 lines! |

Lew, is that comment now gone, because I don't notice anything incriminating. I admit to reading a lot of the comments (but I do skip over the squee and unbridled lust) and I rather enjoy Fat Banker and Fusker's comments very much.
