What's the most interesting or complicated or scrumptious thing you've made recently?
I confess, much as I do love cooking (and eating) good food, I've not been very adventurous lately for one reason or another. I really need to make a batch of the famous ragu but can't be arrised at the mo.
I have some Swedish meatballs in the freezer so may make a sauce to have with them this week, don't hold your breath though.
Not a foodie but I am sure a self confessed one will be along shortly. But I had a seafood platter today consisting of scallop, prawn, mussel, langoustine, crab claws and lobster tail.
Oh Islay, that sounds delicious. You can eat all of that can you?
I once had a seafood platter on the French coast that would have fed a family, I have photos of me with a huge plastic bib on, dripping butter down me, on my birthday. You've just reminded me of that ;)
I'd say you were a foodie, why don't you think you are?
There you go Tilly, scrumptious is very important, more so than interesting or complicated really. I love home made rice pud but as I'm the only one who likes it, I never make it as I'd end up eating the whole lot.
Watch “man vs food” or “ diners drive ins and dives” and I dare you not to be hungry after watching what our American cousins eat and their portion sizes.
Jackdaw you are a miserable old devil and the nature of this thread is blindingly obvious from the title why piddle on others parade?
I’m cooking one of my favourite dishes tonight Catalan chicken, it has a marinade of garlic, cumin, honey and lemon juice that is finished with white wine and cream to make a sauce.
