Think my wife homemade today’s but we generally need to check anything for dairy or soya.

I’d be disappointed with those potatoes, nowhere near crispy enough.

[PestiRed]

Just noticed that those roasties have their skin on. Can I have my rep back?

I’m not a fan of skins of roasties, but regardless of that, they needed to be left in for longer. Best part of the meal, in my opinion.

Understandable - @lifetime fan can you work up a pud recipe for the daughter?

 Not off the top of my head. 
 

As Scott had said the recipes are shite.

A lad I trained with now runs a vegan restaurant in bath. I’ll ask him.

My wife has reliably told me the potatoes had another hour after that. 
 

She took that photo at 2.17pm and we ate a 3.30pm.

Yeah, to be fair, that joint would need to be rested for at least 45 minutes which is when you finish your roasties and make your gravy. It looks great that.

That crackling looks amazing. I’m always disappointed with my roasts

Roast cauli, broccoli & carrots in the oven.

 

No puds, my daughter can’t have dairy & when we use another type of milk (oat, coconut etc) they are pretty gross.

 

She gets upset when we have them & she doesn’t so left them out altogether.

Coconut milk rice pudding is very good

Meat free sausages anyone

I'm in the roast potato skin on camp. Got to have those extra crispy bits and flavour that only the skin can give them

[Tony Moanero]

Nah, skins off for roast potatoes, skins on for new potatoes and, obviously, baked potatoes.

[Evelyn Tentions]

That demented American female is now making British fish and chips.

Batter includes. sugar and root beer and slathered onto the fish which is then microwaved for 20 minutes.

I haven't linked it, it should not be watched. That's how she makes money.

Been in France for 3 weeks and fell off the pescatarian train. 

 

Yesterday I went to a medieval village and had goose breast. It was fucking phenomenal.

I don't mind them with the skin on but it isn't the only way to get crispy, flavoursome roasties. Par-boil, rough them up with salt and semolina, throw in to hot oil, high heat for 20 minutes then a lower temperature for 40 minutes or so. 

 

It's all a bit Nigella Lawson, but it works!

Nice, prefer goose and duck to chicken anyday.

Just about anything is better than chicken. Chicken only good is you stuff the breast or smother it in something that tastes. Only think chicken beats is turkey

 

Pigeon and partridge is good too

Prefer the thighs to breast - I like coq au vin and chicken w hot sausage and peppers, but you are right, it is probably cuz it tastes less like chicken then.

Southern style spicy fried chicken is also enormous.

[Lee909]

Yeah thighs are better. But as you say it's the added tomato, chorizo and peppers that make the dish.

I always go for the things in Nandos. Delicious.

Think I'm one of a handful of people that's never set foot in or ordered from Nandos. 

 

Bought the sauces but they are bang average to be honest.
