·This week I will mostly be avoiding... gluten, with surprisingly good results. I won't bore you all with the details, but I thought I'd share a little handy hint that I've discovered when it comes to packed lunches (it's always tricky eating on the run AND managing a ridiculous taste free diet too). I discovered that if you're avoiding gluten and you want a quick, non-messy packed lunch - basically YOU'RE BUGGERED. But, never fear, for after spending countless hours in my lab (well, the kitchen) the 'geezer has discovered the answer... read on for enlightenment.My new trick is to make little thin pancakes using rice flour (or buckwheat flour), an egg and rice milk (or normal milk if you prefer). They take literally about a minute to prepare and cook. I make loads of them and stick 'em in the fridge. They make a good alternative to sandwiches since you can put (or roll up) anything in them that you want; sweet or savoury. They keep for at least a day in the fridge, and if you freeze them then they defrost in seconds in the tucker fuc..., er, the microwave.My favourite is the 'breakfast pancake' that invloves frying up little bits of sweet potato and banana before putting in the mixture. MMMmmmm. Right, I'm off for a.... pint. Only joking, a pancake really.Enjoy.
