Well he's made one chook last 6 meals, do an Ethiopian proud that would....

I also think he is using utensils he has nicked from a airline to make the meal seem bigger......

Is that a holed out grapefruit on the top right? Looks like he has 10 minutes until Jan's back too

There is enough mate , well for me anyway , I think personally we all eat too much meat , just my opinion

Last night,

Slow cooked ribs that the meat was falling off the bone.

String beans sauted in butter and homemade Italian dressing

Brown rice.

Sorry, no pictures.

Tonight we're doing cabbage rolls slow cooked in marinara sauce. I'll try to remember to take a few photos.

That all sounds very nice CS but we do need pics in this thread , are you Italian BTW ?

About as Italian as you Nigel. I honestly meant to take pictures but I just couldn't wait after trying to pick up the sets of rack o' ribs without them falling apart.

Well hello there Tuesday evening...

It's been awhile since I've had a deep fill pie.....

Yeah fair enuf I wasn't being funny , I was merely gonna ask you to recommend me something to eat out there on my upcoming holiday .

From what Ive see of Italian food so far I should be able to shed around 50 kilos in our 17 nights out there

You're kidding aren't you?
If you can't find something you want to eat it Italy you're a strange bird.

They go well with pints

I,m open to ideas / suggestions Nek as to what to eat .

Basically I wouldn't want to eat any of that rubber stuff whatever shape it comes in or that stringy white stuff ,, so mabe some fish ?

Dunno never been there

You can find them pies in Poundland sometimes Somtum

When they are having a sale I,m gonna buy one

I have to agree with Necron here. Italian must be about the most varied food there is.
If pasta and pizza is not for you you will find lots of inexpensive fresh meals in small restaurants everywhere - meats, fish, vegetables, grains , desserts. whatever you fancy
Just google a bit to see what there is.


I am pretty certain you will come back with a changed opinion

You can get pizza by the metre. We were a crowd of six people and ordered one once!!

Yes Nigel. We need that to happen.

Yesterday I had spicy baked beans and meatballs. They were, how shall I put this, 'fucking disgusting?'

I still reckon the humble roast chicken takes a bit of beating for value .

Yesterday this little beaut provided us with roast dinner , then chicken salad for both our work food today ,, then tonight dinner for me plus another chicken salad for the wife tomorrow plus chicken sandwiches for me .

Marrows supplied by a kind neighbour along with courgettes now cause he,s grown too many potatoes out my garden Tesco Blue + white label carrots

Very cheap eating here if you work it out right

Is your watch slow or do you usually eat Dinner at 4.50 (PM I assume!)?

Patrick

Cod and chips for two £4.95p Gert got the small piece of fish.

Bit of an experiment.

Take a nice bit of fillet, smash it out a bit.
Mix up some big red chilli, garlic, woster and oil and coat.
Add salt, pepper, bit of cumin.




Add some chopped spring onion and corriander.


[Picture missing because bat mot]


Roll up the steak and wrap in bacon, use a toothpick to hold it together.

[Picture missing because phone charging]


Season and Pan sear the outside, baste with woster and oil and into a 200c oven for 15 min or so.

[Picture missing because forgot]


Result - damn tasty, but because it's a small bit of meat should have turned it every 5 min

Picture out of focus...Why's that?
