I think the risotto looks about right tbh. That Dundee cake looks lovely as well

First attempt at portugese egg tarts tonight!

 

[randomshenans]

Good effort, they look great. Tasty?

Very tasty yeah, admittedly its just a recipe off of 'Jamie's 30 minute meals' but they only take 10mins or so to prep. It's an orange flavoured caramel over the top again that I'd use again quite happily on other bits I think.

jesus this is not the thread to read while my chicken is roasting

Very nice, I made some earlier after seeing yours. I didn't use the orange caramel though as I don't think my teeth could take it!

Made myself a Thai green curry earlier - with a couple of differences. First difference: For some reason the plump, juicy Jalapenos I bought from Morrisons appear to have disappeared so I had to substitute with some of my emergency frozen Cayennes from last year's crop. Secondly, I normally put some sort of green veg in the curry; such as green beans or frozen peas or asparagus. However, when I was in Morrisons, they had a selection of exotic veg and Lotus Root caught my eye so I got some of that to put in it. Doesn't have a huge amount of flavour but, if it isn't cooked too long, it gives a nice crunch to the dish and does have a slight nutty flavour. I enjoyed it and would buy it again if it was available.

Forgot to take an after picture - difficult to cook as the steak on the right was pretty uneven! Had it with heart attack mashed potatoes, braised white cabbage and bacon, and garlic green beans.

Wine was corked though

Hardly a gourmet masterpiece, but I made some rather spiffing NY Deli sangers today. om nom nom

Ammeg, damn those pancakes look tasty! I can never get mine to colour correctly.

And nice job on the calamari! Love the stuff.

Looks amazing, calamari food of the Sea Gods.
I jsut don't eat it another.
America last year was good, eat it most days and their starter portions where massive.

I caught my first trout of the year the other night, a nice 2.5lb blue.



Filleted and pin boned.



Then grilled with a little salt and pepper, lemon rind, spring onion and lemon juice.

New potatos are in a 50/50 mix of natural yoghurt and mayonnaise with capers, finely diced pickled cucumber and spring onion.

My mouth is watering.

My dad was a keen angler while he was still able. Him and my uncle used to go trout fishing every Saturday during the season. He would quite often drop a trout or two off to me on the way home. Used to love having grilled trout on a Sunday morning for breakfast. Just did it filleted and grilled, like you, bit of salt and pepper and a squeeze of lemon; served with brown bread and butter. Perfect way to start the day.

That burger.... NOM!

 

[Glaucus]

That's one tasty looking burger thing.

 

[randomshenans]

Man that's a tasty looking burger.

Last night I was bored, so I made a cake. Now, I never make cakes, as, well, I live with the Mrs who makes the best cakes. Why would I?! She wasn't in though, so I made an apple and cider cake, with an apple and cider glaze. Since I pretty much made it up, I was massively impressed. My god it's nice.
