  • Pinchos - amazing. Crossed the border into Spain today after many awkward little climbs on shitty roads around Biarritz in 35 degree heat. Have just got back from a stroll around San Sebastian where I've had dozens of little bites, mostly involving anchovies and peppers and olives. But all of them delicious. And lots of this really strong and dry cider they pour from very high up in the glass. Finished with ice cream which seems to be the late night non alcoholic alternative to bars. Absolutely awesome city. I approve.

    Reminds me off egg eyes I used to make.

    Get a slice of bread, make a hole in the middle.
    Fry the bread for a bit, then break an egg into the hole.
    Flip when the egg has set a bit.
    Yum.

  • Internetz help, please...

    I remember making a fig cake some time in the distant past. It was delicious. Only problem is I have lost the recipe, or at worst I am too hungover to remember where I've stored it. I've found nuknow's recipe which I may fall back on but I quite liked the cake with chopped figs in it.

    I remember soaking the (dried, I think) figs in either Madeira or vanilla extract or both before adding them. Does anyone have a recipe like this? Please...

    It's for mummy spybot and she deserves cake. With figs.

    Right.

    ***Fig Cake ***


    **

    • 2 cups of Flour
    • 1 1/2 cups of Sugar
    • teaspoon of table Salt
    • " of Baking Powder
    • " of Ground Cloves
    • " of Ground Nutmeg
    • " of Ground Cinammon

    • 3 large Eggs
    • 1 cup of Veg. Oil - Olive Oil* (half-half)
    • 1 cup of **Yoghurt ** (Greek like Total)
    • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (or pods)
    • 1 cup of Fig Jam
    • 1 cup nuts (optional)

    Method

    7 first ingredients all combined.
    Separate egg whites from yolks, stir the yolks in.
    Then Yoghurt >>> Veg. Oil >>> Fig Jam >>> Egg whites (whisked to solid).
    180º for 45 min. I usually cover the cake for about 30min with foil since
    the dough is quite thick, it helps cooking the inside quicker.

    *I use Olive oil because I prefer it to Veg. Oil... and it's healthier.
    **As you can see I don't use nuts and mine got a bit toasted on top.

  • Get some Fig Jam and Bob your Uncle.

    ed? do WHAT?

  • Your Uncle + Fig Jam = Bobing.

  • I never fry onions firstly when making burgers. Makes the patties too greasy and they don't bind together with the meat anything like as well as if they were left raw. Just chop them finely.

    you wouldn't cook onions twice before you used them in anything else why would you do that with burgers?

    A friend told me to do it and I liked it. It helps to coax most of the wataer out of the onions and stops the meat from looking grey. also, slightly browned, the onions give a much nicer (IMO) taste

  • Just heard a recipe for carnitas involving my favorite ingredient- coke:

    Chop a pork butt in large chunks. Put in large baking pan. Throw on:
    2 cinnamon sticks,
    1 whole head garlic (end chopped off to expose it),
    several bay leaves, torn,
    a can condensed milk,
    a can of cola,
    salt,
    Then water to nearly cover. Cover with foil and simmer 2 hours.

    I'd probably add some chili and stuff... but it seems so simple- i'm going to give it a try in nottingham

    Looked fucking ace.

  • Oh that is full of win.
    Have some rep.
