Just married and I cooked a roast dinner for Sunday lunch and wanted to do a rice pudding. Asked my Mum how to do it and she said "It's easy just use 2 to 1." So I used half a pound of rice to a pint of mile - had to throw the dish away!!

I remember cooking a casserole type dish, but the dish I cooked the meal in was not oven proof and cracked with an almighty bang with the food all splattered everywhere in the oven.
We ended up getting fish n chips.
