I’ve got history. With graters that is…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This picture happened recently. Its like a crime scene, you can still see traces of the cheese I was attempting to grate. Oh the horror! Me and my Jamie grater had 6 magical years together<\/a>. I already owned two rather shiny microplanes (and still do but their handles annoy me) but my beloved coarse grater survived 4 house moves and grated a hell of a lot of cheese. And carrots.Probably more. Then one fateful night OH THE HORROR IT SNAPPED!! I almost cried. What shall I do? Do I replace? I was scared in case the horror happened again….<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So I went shopping… I tried to look for the JO one *just in case I changed my mind* but couldn’t find on the high street…it was late..I was tired…weary…still saddened …and in a moment of madness I purchased the below lime flecked one for a whole pound. I like a bargain but its not the one for me. The bottom cover thingy seems entirely useless other than to fall off and its unsurprisingly not sharp enough. It doesn’t have a good prognosis.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But then a rainbow appeared on the horizon of my tears… and it was a welcome hello to my OXO Good Grips ‘Complete Grate and Slice set<\/a>‘ and we have fully bonded. Those who follow me on Instagram <\/a>will testify to that! The set consists of four removable grating and slicing slides – and I used it almost daily ever since receiving it! It has pride of place at the front of the cupboard rather than being abandoned towards the back in the mandolin graveyard…..<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

As I’ve had ‘issues’ with my PC and the odd health one to throw a spanner in the works, I have not been very good writing down any recipes but this one is fairly close. My oven temperature is still wrong and I still share a kitchen so blogging is tricky! I have posted pictures of a similar dish a few years back here <\/a> with inspiration from Hampshire Cook<\/a> but this is the updated one with an actual recipe! <\/div>\n

Sorry if the pictures fuzzy – my PC is still trying to break all my images!<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
The fine slicing blade in the Good Grips set is awesome – as well as graters, this is my 3rd mandolin set too and its perfectly thin and sharp, oh and easy to use! Which is the main thing! I have slightly wonky joints and ease of use is high up on my agenda!! I used both the fine mandolin and coarse grater for this recipe and it took moments to prepare for a big bowl of comfort food! The gripper tool is strong and hold the veggies well when slicing, to protect your fingers!<\/div>\n
