Look forward to the pics

I'm making roast chicken again I think.

Do some yorkshire pud Satnav and stick us some pics of your splendiferous plateful

Quick n easy lunch.

Tikka Masala with rice, nan and sour cream.

^ Nice mate ,, had one of those myself Friday night ,, micro wave ready meals ,, all a bit sad now really cooking on me own most nights

Sorry about the photo quality, I'm using my phone as my camera seems to enjoy hiding from me.

Just had chicken and pork kebabs with roasted veggies - bloody lovely it was. I'll take a photo in the morning as I forgot before I ate it all.

^ Kebabs, How do you make yours MTD?

My brother sent me a picture of his dinner last night (Bastard knows how much I miss the 'elephant leg' kebabs on the way home from the pub back home!)

I just shout "kebabs for tea tonight, love" and they miraculously appear a little while later.

I think the chicken was marinated in a natural yoghurt and shwarma spice mix and the pork in a salt and lemon combo. She cooked them over hot coals on the barbie. The aubergine, peppers and onion was also bbqd, coated in a bit of olive oil and then drizzled with balsamic vinegar. She did some potato wedges in the oven with a light coating of oil and I drowned them in salt & vinegar before scoffing. The pitta bread was homemade as all our bread is.

Drool.... Sounds lovely


I need to get out side and use the BBQ more actually, I might give something like that a go during the week.

Blimey Sat ! thats one huge plateful , you must get hungry doing your woodwork

MTD you must be ( the lucky one ) in Udon to have an oven

We have 3.

The potato wedges were done in a little convection oven.

Pork Carnitas (thanks Satonic) A bottle of JW and a bottle of Dewwars (Thanks Jonnie and some Scottish dude) and The Godfather Part 1 (Thanks Pacino)

If anybody can think of a better Sunday them please let me know.

I couldn't get any Taco seasoning mix at max value so I made my own from this recipe.

• 1/4 cup instant minced onion
• 2 Tbsp. chili powder
• 2 tsp. paprika
• 2 tsp. crushed dried red pepper flakes
• 1-1/2 tsp. dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp. dried marjoram
• 1 Tbsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. pepper
• 2 Tbsp. cornstarch
• 1 Tbsp. instant minced garlic
• 1 tsp. ground cumin

It tasted great.




The rest of the awesome meal. Thanks Satonic (And ultimately AO)







The corn tortillas that the wife bought were fucking gross. It was much better with potato salad and pork. Stick with the flour tortillas that I asked her to buy when she went to the shop and always try to limit the decisions that they have to make when they are out on their own.

^ Looks great - And I bet you have some left for a nice sandwich tomorrow!

And fire the wife

Nice one FP a man after my own heart ( remote on table )


Anyway apologies for my forgetfulness today ,, a classic English roast ruined by a nagging Thai wanting her University grades converted into English equivalents ,, " can't it wait love ?? " total silence ,, so I guess that means a no ,, so I got diverted to piss around filling in online forms + printing em ,,,, not happy !


So here we are beautifully slow cooked tender roast topside with the veg ,, minus the forgotten yorky puds !

Glad you enjoyed it mate.

Yes, I like my yorkies. Sometimes I make a large one and serve the roast in it. I think I have a pic of a roast beef I made like that I'll have a look. I also sometimes make and a cup of gravy to dip them in just as a snack.

Edit - found a (bad) pic of the roast beef - Just before filling it with gravy

Nowt moist?

^ yeah it does look overvooked but in reality it was just right. It's probably my inability to use a camera that makes it look worse. But I do like my beef cooked, I'm not one that enjoys it still mooing on the dinner plate. (In the pic, apart from the yorkie, was the left overs from the day before reheated)

It was smothered in gravy soon after that pic too
