Food

No, perfectly sensible. Christmas food isn’t for me either – I can’t stand raisins/currants/sultanas/glace cherries/mincemeat/marzipan/mulled wine – none of it.

Merry Christmas one and all.

I HATE PEEL! that is all.

Well you know what you can do with that:

I never used to like peel, bt its growing on me.
The best thing about making your own is you get to put what you like in. I'm thinking lots and lots and lots of nuts, cherries and cranberries!

And brandy

Or rum?

Haters gonna hate:

I made the best Lamb I've ever had, last night.
No jokes, roasted for 4h30m... it was melting off the bone.
Roasted potatoes, with the Lamb's fat and spicy fried rice.
Tasted like Xmas.. looked like heaven.

Feeling totally crap with a nasty cold thing so I'm going to make some gingerbread to cheer myself up

I have prunes, dates, cherries, raisins, sultanas, currants, apricots, walnuts, almonds and that might be it soaking in rum right now. None of this 'traditional' stuff.

Good people of LFGSS.

Me ma has bought me this for dinner as she's going out tonight - bless her socks.

What do I do with it? It is a fresh fillet of Blue Eye the size of my femur.

that looks awesome, i've never heard of blue eye before. i wouldnt mess with it too much just simply pan fry it

Take half of it, and make a bread crumb, parsley & lemon zest crust, roast it short & hot with some vine cherry tomatoes, serve with new potatoes and watercress.

I don't want to know what you do with the other half, you sickening pervert.

Sounds lovely...

some minor issues, however:
No lemons
No parsley
No bread or crumbs
Tomatoes are already in a salad
Watercress is fail
No new potatoes

Can I just bung it in flower and into a pan with butter? No messin about?

flour not flowers

Its awesome... its very meaty. I don't dig on delicate fish.

Pan fry is the go, i reckon

So just fucking drown it in butter? Im up for that... its a beast.

Pre-heating.

Yeah I'll rub in some sea salt. Might score the skin first.

Im a fucking shit cook so this will probably be a disaster.

Pick up only, Im afraid.

That's some thick fish - if you choose the fattest part to pan-fry, it'll need a few oven minutes afterwards too.

I'm drooling.
