Thread: Lunch ... the second course

Got a lot of fresh herbs in the fridge, so baked cod with a herby crust for lunch. The herbs are two kinds of parsley, tarragon, coriander, dill and basil. A large red chilli to add a bit of a kick, and a couple of garlic cloves.



All chopped in a small electric hand blender and some olive oil added.



A good handful of freshly made breadcrumbs added to the mix.



Get the cod as dry as possible.



Then cover with the herb mix.



15 minutes in the oven and they're ready.



Some garlic mash and buttered peas complete the meal.

Very nice Pag.

This afternoon I'm out for a bottomless brunch.

20quid for an hour and half.

I've worked it out and anything over 4 pints of Strongbow dark fruit to go with the full English and I'm winning.

I reckon I could manage 6 or 7, maybe 8

I'm all for Strongbow but that dark fruit shit's sweeter than sugar itself and basically right up there with Blue WKD and Tropical Reef.

Don't forget the lunch pics tho.

Fuck it, I'm gonna upgrade then

Pick your tipple and enjoy 90 minutes of bottomless drinks:

• Carling

• Foster's

• Strongbow

• Strongbow Dark Fruit

• Prosecco

• Fruit Juices

Upgrade to Pornstar Martini, Pink Gintini or Aperol Spritz for just £10

How much for that then?

Strongbow for me.

£20 with gay drinks, £10 for extra gay

Dill, why don't you sit on the barge, get deliveroo and buy your own drink, then you don't have to try to get drunk on that fizzy pish

^ I think we're banned from that barge

Had some white bread that I'd made in the freezer, so defrosted and threw into a processor for a minute, so yeah, freshly made breadcrumbs.

Gotcha. We normally use stale bread for breadcrumbs and any other leftovers get bought cheap and sold in wee bags down the fish pond.

I managed 6 pints of Strongbow in 90 minutes yesterday, together with this amazing Mac n Cheese quarter pounder with bbq sauce.

Well done, PAG!!
Quite imaginative and tasty, I'm sure.

My only petty critique might be shame thrown your way - one can easily grow all those fresh herbs [and better quality] on your property, instead of giving way to the store bought plastic encased variety.
Otherwise, all good.

Cheers!!

Pussy.....the burger looks great though.

Imagine the indigestion from 6 pints of fruity cider and a dirty burger.

Bet the fooker was suffering all night.

0.631 ml per second average.


That's a smidgen less than 7 of those 490ml cans they sell here.


Good man.


At that rate I imagine one doesn't even talk. One just sits there with a glass glued to one's lips without a break. Possible two glasses, right hand and left hand, until the buzzer sound at 90 minutes.


Talking's overrated anyway.

My wife doesn't drink alcohol, but she will make an exception for dark fruit.

Just sayin' like.

Maybe Simon can engineer a contraption with tubes and shit for next Sunday's 90 minutes.

Fooking lightweight is still in bed with a hangover!

That's dark fruit cider for you.
