That end product looks better than the pic on the packet. I can see mushrooms too, although this new found rioja does seem intent on premature blindness Lu

Is there any other top drawer food feast that will cook itself to perfection with such minimal effort while a fella attends to his festive bubbly consumption needs?

Mine was a cottage but not sure what the technical difference is.
Coincidentally tried to get one this week after a hankering came over me but they were sold out so I got a 1.8kg lasagne instead
Looks like this balls out 15% rioja is medically classified as a prophylactic too according to the labelQuote:

I believe that the technical difference is that shepherd's pie is made using lamb and cottage pie is made using beef?Quote:

^ which'll be even harder to find than lamb:)

Nope. Can't get this curry to look photogenic.Quote:

Remove from plastic tray and place in oven.
Remove from oven 55 minutes later and serve with a spoon.

Eat direct from foil tray to avoid washing up.
^ You can't microwave them?
I would call something as fancy as an oven baked lasagne a 'Dinner' rather than 'Blokes cooking'!
And is that a submarine over by that jug thingy on the left?

New bloke-batch of Indian curry knocked up this evening for a week and half of top nosh and will have me smelling like the char-wallah from It Aint Half Hot Mum by Christmas day
Attachment 61251
This batch is a more radiant tandoori orange colour since I did not add turmeric this time. I also used out of date cream that had been abandoned in the freezer for months. It smelled fine but was a bit curdly looking which has oddly been an improvement since regular cream tends to neutralize the edge of the spices and vinegar a bit. The curdly cream has left the curry with a tangy sharp edge. Might switch to coconut cream instead of double cream for the next batch.

The minx is not fan of spicy food so she brings her own vacuum-sealed peking-flavoured bat-wings from wherever these strange kind of things can be procured in the ozzie
More/updated images of the minx are required.Quote:

Based on your past posts I assume that is a ready-made meal? I am considering doing a scratch lasagna and could use one of those trays. :)
You can buy then at the supermarket Subs, no need to wash Loopers one and reuse it

Bit of an odd shape to fry so I sliced this odd looking thing length ways.
Attachment 61477
I was not sure how to tell when one of these fellas is burnt since it starts of black.
Attachment 61478
I thought they needed to be cooked like sausages so I erred on the side of caution and gave it a decent fry.
Attachment 61480
Not the most photogenic dish but quite yummy.
Attachment 61481
I then googled it and apparently they are already cooked during production so you are only really heating it up when you fry it.
Oh well I will know next time although I just noticed in the photo that it is 10 days out of date so the long fry was probably fortunate.

It is the bloke's cooking thread, things like expiry dates are scoffed at here. I would be curious as to why the store didn't remove the out of date product from their shelf.Quote:
