Marmite & associated recipes

[james_tigerwoods]

There's no dedicated thread to this and I feel it's warranted - What are your uses and associated recipes for it?

I'll start - I am a marmite fan. I have it incredibly thick on toast where I think the correct amount is just enough to burn the roof of your mouth coupled with a cooling cup of tea.

This is what I have on my desk at work:



I tend to see what I can add marmite to, to see what works, to name but a few:

Marmite in bolognese gives a slight extra tang
Marmite on chicken skin gives a nice taste and extra crunch
Marmite with Peanut butter is awesome
Marmite with Peanut butter, grilled with cheese is even better

And today I've just tried adding Marmite to a homemade salad dressing (Olive oil, vinegar, pepper and marmite) - It's good too...

Over to you...

Water down some marmite(and mustard if you feel like it) and brush it on potatoes before you roast them, and on a chicken before roasting

Put some pasta on to boil
Melt a good spoonful of butter in a pan.
Add a heaped teaspoon of marmite to the butter and stir together.
Add a ladle full of the pasta water to the marmite/butter to emulsify.

Drain pasta
Pour over marmite butter mixture
Add grated parmasan.

It's awesome and my kids go mental for it.

I like the marmite pasta - My Dad used to do Marmite rice:

Cook rice (basmati works best)
Once cooked, drain and return to pan
Stir in 1-2 desert spoons of marmite
Serve....

God it was good...
