I made this the other week. I was on a TV show, which involved cooking, this was the night before 'the big day' and a practice of the dessert. It was supposed to be like a creme caramel type thing. It tasted alright.
This is a chicken and chorizo paella. Crap photo though, tasted alright. A bit stodgy though as I used risotto rice. It was much better when I used paella rice.

Don't worry, I'll do a new thread when it airs so you can all laugh at me 
I only signed up because I thought I'd have three girls cooking for me, but they made me a 'host' instead

LMAO I can't wait for that. They obviously decided you were a desperado rather than a player.
And I seem to remember to had an awesomely fit girlfriend too.

what is it with all these semi focused shots of food, if you dont want people to see what the full picture looks like then crop it.
i would like to see what the full meal looks like, not 5% of it.
i cannot believe people actually think those types of pictures look good
i know what it is and it can make some photo's look amazing, but really only a decent photographer will know how and when to use it. some of the best photo's i have seen were from a professional wedding photographer and they certainly knew when and how to use it properly.
seems to be nowadays everyone has an SLR and thinks they know what actually makes a good photo. personally i could have taken better on my phone (nokia n8, best camera phone).
anyway back on topic.
I was going to bite and tear you a new one
- then I read your last comment and burst at laughing AT you 
Tonight I cooked this
Pan fried cod with roast sweet potatoes and stir fried veg.

Took it from a new recipie book
1) Cut 250gm boneless chicken breast into slices.
2) Marinade in 2 eggs, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tbsp cornflour and 1 tbsp oil for an hour.
3) Then coat in dry cornflour and deep fry until crisp and golden brown. Make sure each piece is coated. Drain and keep aside after.
4) Heat 2 tbsp oil in wok. Add 2-3 dry red chillies, broken up and stir. After this, add 2 tsp garlic paste and stir.
5) And 2 tbsp of the white part of spring onions, finely chopped. While you're at it, cut the greens into 1" pieces and set it aside. (I used about 2 lengths of spring onions for this bit).
6) Along with the spring onion, add 2 1/2 tbsp tomato ketchip, 1 1/2 - 2 t tbsp soya sauce and 2 tsp honey. Saute for a few seconds.
7) Add in the chicken from earlier and stir-fry. Make sure it gets coated with the sauce properly. Add in the greens from the spring onions. Serve hot
Made this last night, except I shallow fried it. Very nice, super crispy chicken and the sauce was a revelation! Ketchup really is very verstile.
Thanks for the recipe.

the veggies didnt taste overdone and still had a nice bite, i just tossed them in some herb butter, which might explain the look.

Lol, how he thinks he can tell the veggies are overdone from that...!
