Food

True. I think it's an interesting concept.

I think depending on how you can modulate the dosing, it could help with weightloss.

I'd love to try it. I also like the environmental aspects, and also how it could be used as a basic food aid.

BTW, piqued my interest.

Dinner last night and breakfast this morning has been dressed crab, multigrain toast, butter, a squeeze of lemon and a dash of paprika. Last night's with a nice chilled white and this morning's with fresh coffee. Fantastic.

Ive just come back from Norfolk - and am already missing the ease of eating crab/lobster.
We went to town and bought 4 lobster on Tuesday (£35) and just grilled them on the bbq.

Made Hollandaise using Delias blender technique earlier and have to say it really was easy, will do that again. Made duck eggs benedict.

Tonight I'll be chowing down on 1kg of bavette steak - in preparation of going the next month pescatarian.

Just made a lentil, haloumi. And tomato salad. So quick and easy and so tasty, made plenty extra for lunch tomorrow too.

For anyone that is interested here is the recipe.

Halloumi with anything is win

Last night I made a risotto primavera which was a bit meh, but the accompanying beetroot carpaccio was incredible.

Cooked beetroot topped with fresh feta and crushed walnuts, with a basil and citrus dressing. Totally yummy.

It was a bastardised version of this recipe:

Oh my... salivates

GBBO.

20 August.

Get in.

Fucking love that programme!

Aye massive Paul Hollywood man crush - best thing to come out of Liverpool since Cilla Black.

Other half is Scouse, I have a soft spot for Liverpudlians.

Last night - the schweinshaxe which I had pre-roasted overnight for about ~7 hrs. Finished off with a heat through and a grilling for the crackling to come up.
Made a what's-in-my fridge/freezer coleslaw - praise & kewpie mayo, cabbage , peas, corn, carrots, flat leaf parsley.
Great stuff. Having leftovers for lunch too and I can't wait!

Bake off, schmake off. Raymond Blanc for the win.

"Oh la la"

*drops something and giggles maniacally,

*shouts "Adam!"

*makes incredible looking food

etc.

GBBO & Raymond are not mutually exclusive.

I watch either when I'm on the turbo.

I have a serious man crush on RB though.

Raymond Blanc is a little nuts. It would be nice if his show about techniques would be more about the techniques and less about RB being RB.

I know. Burn the heretic, etc.....

TW2 are you Andrew who comes to south's?

Adem, Adem! bring me a insert kitchen thingie here

I love Raymond Blanc as well, he is hilarious.

In fact no, you aren't, that is dumps.

Confused.

Didou know Manu at Le Reej trained with Raymond?

Just knocked up a very successful rice noodle dish for lunch... Green beans, black fungus and eggs... Cooked up with loads of kecap manis...

Nom! No pix, too greedy...

I did not know that. In fact, I think i've only eaten the Reej once. Slack, very slack.

Meh, I'm just not a big fan baking and don't have a sweet tooth at all hence limited appeal of GBBO.

This.

fuck yeah
