I use a wok, not too deep. Boiling water with plenty of vinegar. Job done!

That's an interesting way to fry eggs.

The one on the right came out ok I thought. The egg yolk was still mostly soft and runny when I bit into it. It all starts fine, its when it comes to flipping them that it often goes pear shaped.

Don't flip them, keep the heat medium and they'll cook enough on top without burning the bottom or if you use a lot of fat/oil spoon it over the top.

No picture so I'll steal the one on Serious Eats but I just made Mapo Tofu again with this recipe:

Upped the chilli bean paste content. Utterly delicious.

Thought so myself too, not sure why but this comment actually had me laughing out loud.

Lacks butter. Needs at least 250g per 4 person serving!

Heinz tomato soup and cheese toasty.

Omg Heinz soup is nasty have had one in years, is there any tomato in it? And any more sugar in it and it'd would be a sugar cube, fit for any horse.

Really should have gone to some effort and made a chowder instead.

Clearly he struggles in frying, so my suggestion is an easy way of poaching eggs. Your sarcastic comment is not needed.

Just had the new Pulled pork wrap from McDonalds, rank Won't be having that again.

Wow someone is stroppy this evening!

I had Heinz Soup tonight with buttered rolls Glaucus, I agree a lot of sugar though but they are tasty with a twist of black pepper on top

Does that work? I season crackling well with salt and it always comes out nice

salt draws all the moisture out, my dad even stabs the skin hundreds of times and rub salt into all the holes. Leave it overnight and then dust off all the excess before cooking.

I haven't had pork for months as I'm away at a place where they won't serve any - so you get turkey bacon and beef sausages for breakfast, it's all quite rank.

So I've put the order in to the gf, when I'm back home next month I want bacon and sausages for breakfast. Pulled pork or belly pork for lunch then a nice roast Ham for dinner

So not so much what are you eating, but what I will be eating is pig three ways, I'm that excited I had to post about it. God I miss pig.
