Bane,

With regard to your response, thanks for the offer but not while there are mad dogs on the street.

Yeah it sounds gross but it's actually ok. It caramelises the outside of the chicken and has a light sweet taste. Thats why I do it if there are kids at a barbeque, it's a bit different from my usual burnt sausages in bread rolls.

Bane,

Sorry, got a bit carried away there.

Those Thai burgers look good.

I agree with what you say about the mince. I always get the steak mine, you don't get all the fat running out of it and it tastes better too. (If you're doing a chilli or bolognese you don't get the scum crusting on the surface either)

 

[Bane]

Everyone who's tried those Thai burgers seems to like them Tony.

Definately trying your cola/ketchup ones but I WONT be telling people what's on them first!

 

[mdshunk]

mdshunk I thought it was just a Hollywood film thing, just sitting down & saying "give me the special"

Nope, but it might be something peculiar to USA diners. The "special" at lunch time is usually around a fiver, and a pretty good meal for a good price.

 

[tony.towa]

A recipe with Spudmeister in mind.

Baked sage and pepper potatoes.

What you need

4 baking potatoes
1 red pepper
12-16 Sage leaves
3 tablespoons of olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
Half teaspoon salt
Half teaspoon white pepper

What you do

Slice the potatoes to about quarter of an inch from the bottom and continue slices about quarter of an inch apart.
Quarter the red pepper and cut into fine strips.
Put one strip of pepper into each slice cut in the potatoes.
Put one sage leaf into every third slice cut into the potatoes.

Crush and very finely chop the garlic.
Mix the oil, salt, pepper and garlic together.
Brush the mixture evenly over the four potatoes.
Wrap and seal the potatoes in silver foil.
Bake for about an hour, or until cooked.

 

[London Luke]

let wife /gf cook whatever
just make her wear some sexy panties and have a good "help yourself" whilst she is cooking

 

[tony.towa]

A bit desperate that Luke.

Why noy run her a hot bath (put some of those smellies from Lush in it) and then while she is in the bath prepare a meal for her. You will not need to help yourself then, she will do it for you!!!!!

The next recipe set will be "THE SEDUCTION SURPRISE"

Venison Steak Recipe

Ingredients

1 bottle of red wine
1 carrot
1 red onion
2 cloves of garlic
6 bay leaves
1 sprig of thyme
half teaspoon of black pepper
2 shallots per steak
Butter
2 tablespoons of cranberry jelly

What you do

In a large dish put the carrot (grated), the garlic (crushed and chopped), the onion (finely chopped), the bay leaves, the thyme (finely chopped0 and the black pepper. Pour in the red wine and mix . Marinade the venison steaks in this, in the fridge, for 24 hours turning the steaks over occasionally.

After 24 hours remove the steaks from the marinade.

In a frying pan gently fry the shallots, which have been cut in half from top to bottom. Do not allow the butter to burn (if you are worried about this add two teaspoons of olive oil). Allow the shallots to “melt down and add the cranberry jelly.
Pour the marinade through a sieve and add the liquid to the frying pan. Mix and reduce down to the consistency of tinned custard, stirring as you reduce it. Add the steaks and fry in the sauce fo 1 to 2 minutes on each side (1 min rare, 2 mins well done)

Serve meat with sauce poured over it.

New potatoes and broccoli go well with it
