On my walk to work this morning I got absolutely drenched, I was freezing cold and it felt like winter. I find that what I want to eat is really affected by my mood, and the first thing I craved was something creamy, hot and comforting.
It is really simple to make, and is also extremely delicious! A hot pot is basically a casserole with sliced potatoes on top. I also added some cheese on top of mine to may it extra delicious!
The trick to using Quark or Fat Free Fromage frais when cooking is to add it at the end of cooking and to make sure that it doesn't overheat or boil.
