Hi abi,

Thank you so much for your kind response.

I've seen many recipes with the word 'no' or 'nos' in the ingredient list and because  I'm used to seeing it written as "1 onion, sliced" , I thought it might mean the "size" as in small, medium or large ...however, that synopsis didn't fit in all occasions, which left me baffled as to it's true meaning.

I found this site quite by accident just a few days ago and finally managed to register successfully last night. I'm delighted to be a member and look forward to many happy hours perusing the recipes and reviews of others.

Thank you again abi and thank you too Mullai, for a wonderful site.

Barbara
