How much were you paid to eat that?

Salad cream and cheese or apple sauce,hmm!

It's a tough call but i'd opt for the "apple sauce"

Steak Looks yummy!

Here is our dinner being slow cooked - spaghetti...

caramelized onions, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper...
lightly brown the mince - then add ripe tomatoes and 1/4 cup red wine
some chili to give it some kick... brown sugar to reduce acidity
then slow cook/simmer on 62c all day...
consume rest of wine, while awaiting t-rak to come home lol
smells sooo good... comfort food.

P.S. That finely chopped garlic is to chug down separately (to kill my flu)... already added to the spaghetti... 90% back to full-health now (thanks to garlic!!)...

That looks good Dick ,, its good to see some of us on here not rocking up as the stereotypical male who has to wait for his other half to cook his food for him .

I would say in our household we share the catering about 50/50

bloody oath they wouldn't. A horrible plat of glop.

Probably tasted OK though, just missing the pasta.

Cheers Nigel, mate :-)

I love cooking, it's not a chore for me... a pleasure to cook for the one I love.
Her favorite is lamb, Kiwi style..

Yup, certainly not 'al dente'/bit of a Kiwi-twist on a great classic..

pics with the pasta (of course) to follow..

The missus liked it... licked her plate clean.

Not proud Nige, no

Disappointed yes, no one pays for all inclusive and doesn't drink Amstel for breakfast.

Wow, that looks awesome mate!

I'm just a basic cook... but I wana improve!

(yes, I'm drinking now)

To be this good takes a lot of practice Dicky

If I could bottle my culinary talents, I'd sell you some

haha... I save my talents for the boudoi

Well NZ, what can I say...Looks delicious!

Dilly wouldn't know how to open a fookin' tin o' beans!

Now. Look at this little beauty from Hurdy Gurdy Land.

So...Guess what I made?

Here's a clue.

Cheese on toast ?

Cheese and onion pie. Probably the latticed one.

He's baking his pastry blind.

Cheese and chic peas pie filled with natural jelly?

^^Nearly...We call it, Quiche!

That was the 'blind bake.'






That's wee bits of ground black pepper.

Now, the finished article.

Are you going to have a cream pie

Edit
Quiche it is then !!

I knew it, with all the iFacetime going on it was only a matter of time before Charlie's English Pies turned into Charles' Metrosexual Quiches...

Dilly...Give me a ring on your iphone!

Sorry Chaz, we all like a laugh and a joke, consider yourself blocked

It started with a Quiche

Never thought it would come to this
