My wife has been promising me lots of things for ages, some of them culinary. So does anyone have a recipe for chicken and apricot in a white sauce; liver and bacon; admirals pie (white and smoked fish)?

Can't help with the chicken or the fish, but can tell you how i do liver and bacon.

fry the bacon rashers in a pan with no oil, bacon has enough itself. take out and then fry the liver, onions and mushrooms in the bacon fat. Cut the part cooked bacon and liver to desired pieces and put all ingrediants in the pan and simmer for 2 mins.
Take all the ingrediants out of the pan and put into oven proof dish and cover.(to keep the flies off)
Pour a little water into the pan you cooked the liver, etc in. Make a quick gravy. ie, oxo/bisto. and pour the gravy into the pan with the water, stirring so that you can get all the juices from the meat.
pour the gravy into and on top of the liver/bacon. Cover and place in oven for approx 30/40 mins. Giving you time to do mash/chips etc...
take out of oven and serve.
i find that doing the liver and bacon this way gives you a great tasting gravy and the liver is succulent and tender.
mmmmmm.... enjoy!
