Hahaha, thanks Mm, roast beef with southwest sauce? I prefer an Italian BMT with honey mustard sauceDonFck wrote:
That looks yummy! And I'm saying this after just having consumed a toasted roast beef footlong with Southwest sauce, so it must be true.Thanks Yeah, it's garnished with some coriander (the stalks were also part of it - finely chopped up and chucked in with the onion, peppers, garlic and ginger). That sauce was soooo nice, although I think it could have reduced down a little more.1927 wrote:
Minty - Fucking good on you mate
It looks fucking lush. Plenty of colour, fresh herbs on the top (parsley or corriander?) Its got a wicked glaze to it and Im trying my best to smell it. My mouth is watering aswell. Good skills mate.
How did it go down? Mark it out of 10?
Probably didnt cost that much either did it?
I'd give it a 7.5-8/10. It took a while for me to prepare, and I've discovered just how woeful our knives are (apparently mum thinks that because they were good German cooking knives 25 years ago when my parents got married, they don't need to be professionally sharpened.. ) Also we didn't have a wok, and mum refused to buy one (as I assume she doesn't understand exactly how they work). I ended up borrowing one off a mate, in return for giving him a ride home from work Also, here's a tip - don't rub your nose just after chopping chili. This will result in a burning sensation up your nose for about 20 minutes.
As for the cooking - it's the first time I'd used a wok. Good fun, tho god shit happens fast, so I ended up slightly burning some of the peppers while chucking the other chopped ingredients in.
And the food itself? Pretty darn good, tho I think the pork was a little overdone, and the pineapple seemed a tad soggy. That being said, it fucking aces for a uni student. I'd be happy to live off the quality of stuff I've been cooking so far. Lol, I showed a friend that pic and she said I had to cook for her.lol, as you posted.. why yes, yes it isliquidat0r wrote:

Pair of latex gloves should come in handy. Go back to your bedroom and get them from the bedside drawer and stick them in the tea towel / oven glove drawer. Next time your chopping Garlic, Chilli or Onion they will stop ya hands smelling for when this chick comes round for dinner.
Wouldnt worry about over doing Pork if thats what happened? Its better to be that side of the scale rather than underdone, I also think the flaour is better the longer you fry it for.
I rarely use a Wok. My best Kitchen purchases have been:
Decent Knives
A Green Bean shredder
A hand held electric blender / whisk
Electric Knives, for Roast Beef, Pork, Bread etc
A griddle for Steaks
But most of all a 30" tall Pepper Mill, the wooden kind you find in the Italian restaurant. I do like my Black Pepper.
As I said good on you for doing this and taking these steps, I hope they are the first steps on a long road.
Sunday was alright, no question popping, we haven't had that discussion yet! We got each other cards cos we are skint due to holiday paid for etc... I took her for a walk into Ramsgate Harbour and a nice hot chocolate, got back home and she had sleep and i relaxed, ran us a nice hot bath gave her a massage and we soaked in the tub for an hour or so.1927 wrote:

Oh yeah we made a cake too! I forgot about that, for our friends birthday, was a cracking cake too.

It stinks that companies always yak about degrees. The degree won't automatically make you a pro with different software. I mean with a proper introduction anyone with a little advanced knowledge of computers could probably handle those programs. Like meburnzz wrote:

Oh and fresh Corriander- Fucking lush. never chop it but do as you did, break it with your fingers. Its an excellent garnish on top of most dished, I bung it in salads and ontop of curries I make.
I started when I was about 6/7/8 with my Nan making Pancakes. Had the ex Mrs kids doing Spag Bog at the age of 8. Mollie makes a really colourful salad now already. The school has taught her to use big knives, 'Hows ya nerves Dad'. 'Im shitting it Moll love, ffs be careful'.
Im a right anorak taking pictures of loads of things I cook, even sarnies in my FA CUP thread from 2 years ago. I'll have to get them uploaded.
My most recent thing I have found I can cook is clams. They tasted just like when I was 9 in Portugal with my Mum, I cooked them in white wine, and I almost cried when I ate them, brought back wicked memories.

An hour in the bath, fuck, I bet you looked like two massive Raisens when you got out didnt you? Clean ones but wrinkley eh?

Im not too bad ta, slightly worried about my right leg, the lower bit, I dunno if its shin splints but if it is I need time out from sport and that has never happened. I'll play through the pain, I can her the music now

Yep it were chocolate with chocolate icing, chocolate shavings and Maltesers, i thought it was going to be too rich for me but it was absolutley delicious, i would have saved you guys some but Antonia's fat little brother was there so half the cake was gone before we even got stuck in.1927 wrote:

Id keep the knives and get them sharpened.
Drop a knive onto a chopping block and flex it, if it flex's too much I wont use it, too flexible and wont give me the control I need. Bread Knives do this. The amount of times I catch my housemate cooking with a small prune kind of knife, makes my fuucking blood boil, he slips he's fucked. IMO you only need about 3 knives in the kitchen to get by. Have you seen how chefs hold them sometimes? Same as wooden spoons when they are stiring stuff, this Italian fella's the worst/best for it. Antonio Something or other. Just look at his hands Im like 'How many stars you got then 3'? He has aswell.

So I'm thinking I'll just whack them in a normal frying pan for a bit and then stick 'em in the oven (or grill them) while I prepare the rest of the meal.

That sounds like one nice bowl to lick, I would lick it like Id lick that xbox/call of duty girl from our perverts thread. Id would be all over my nose, all over my face. Anyone else turned on right this second?
My legs just aching from wear n tear I reckon, been playing on Astroturf since I was 8ish. Then cricket in the summer. Its an age thing I reckon / hope. Dont laugh Im serious with this - This time last week it started and it wasnt until the next day I put it down to being flu. Flu in my fucking ankle. I dont reckon it is now, just hope it aint shin splints, which come from playing on hard surfaces.
For the win.burnzz wrote:
