The Foodie thread

[s(k)aturation]

I'm thinking of having a rump steak for lunch. Pepper sauce on the side.

Only $16 at The Railway Hotel.

[celeryBADboy]

It appears last day of the month i get paid so wont be doing this till Wednesday

[celeryBADboy]

Not the best but heres what i cooked tonight

 

Braised Pork, Sanfire and bacon Gnocci, Salted Pineapple Chrisps, Basil Courgette Puree Ginger beer Jus, With Roast Potatoes.

 

Flavours worked very well not the best looking thing though

 

[Anny Road]

Haven't tasted it obviously but seems to much going on there mate.

Pork and bacon gnocci with potatoes. Sounds ott to me as does courgette puree and jus.

Not slagging it mate but it's like two dinners on one plate.

Did you mean samphire?

 

Despite his butter-related heresy over on the beans thread, I agree with Anny on this. To much going on there.

[celeryBADboy]

Worked quite well the Roasties wasnt my addition was what i was asked to put with it, Like i said it worked very well all complemented the pork and worked well together, Was one of mhy brightest dishes ive done for friends or family, very nice the Jus was Phenom.

[Anny Road]

Braised pork, samphire, pineapple crisps with the jus sounds ace

Bacon gnocci with courgette puree sounds nice too.

Together with roasties doesn't do it for me mate.

[celeryBADboy]

yeah as i said the Rosties didnt give anything to the dish i bought the ingredients the after they decided to put some roasties on, As i said all except them worked extremely well.

I'd say she's a right cunt alright. You ever meet her LF? She looks fit as fuck but her accent is annoying.

There is something annoying about her; it was the reason I stopped watching but I can't for the life of me remember what it is

It is indeed her accent which is annoying. I don't know if it's the normal dialect for her part of Ireland (wherever that is) or whether she's had some elocution lessons, but it comes across as a little bit snooty. I can't think why else she would pronounced 'off' as 'orf', or over-emphasise the letter T in every single word. If you've got the patience or inclination, listen out for it - 'eat' becomes 'eatttttttt', 'fruit' becomes 'fruittttttt' etc. I've got a friend who was a bit of a Rachel Allen fan, but when I pointed out the above, she suddenly cannot stand Rachel Allen! She also smiles as if something fetid has been put under her nose.

Mate I'm Irish and I wouldnt be able to tell you where she comes from with that accent, it's that ridiculous sounding. I think you may have something there with elocution lessons.

[Champ]

There's something about her manner too.....reminds me of Delia Smith....a bit tied up too tight and humourless.

 

Are we spoiling this for you, Vlad?

[Paulie Dangerously]

Lady Dangerously just cooked two whole trout with lemon and parsley. It was the best fish I've ever tasted. It even compensated for the ball ache which is the deboning exercise.

 

Don't think I can eat none whole fish again now

Where did you get it? Ask them to fillet it for you. Even the supermarkets will do it if you're buying from their fish counters

[Paulie Dangerously]

Asda fish counter. Only £1.60 each and they were big.

 

I reckon the visualization of the whole fish tricked my brain into e enjoying it more. I wouldn't risk that sensation on asking Jonny Hair Net at Walton asda to fillet it for me

Well it would save you having to store fish guts in this heat until the next bin collection.

 

Did you read back that we'd got mackerel and cooked it on the barbie? They were fabulous and what a bargain at 5 quid a kilo!

Mackerel was what we were going to get as they were a quid each but we saw the trout on special. I'll have a look back

 

I'm off to southern France in a week or so will be up to my eyes in fish soon

There's nothing much to see really. We discovered it as I had a hankering for sardines and Sainsbury's were out of them and I was recommended the mackerel. Superb they were with crusty bread and salad

How did you do them, whole or filleted? I reckon lemon and chilli would be a winner

[Champ]

The first time they were filleted and the second time, due to a mix up at the fish counter, Mr Champ did them whole (reckon he should have filleted them; they were quite bony). They were just cooked with some lemon juice and a drop of olive oil. The simpler the better for me

[celeryBADboy]

Morrisons do huge Mackerel down here. But the ones o got the other week were unusable of what they filited so next time ill do that myself..
