      I had bit of a talking to from the Doc when I had my recent medical. Basically I am ridiculously fit and healthy (fuck knows why), but I could improve some of my data points by eating lass red meat. So I am on a chicken kick.

      Today I am doing a first for me, Pakistani chicken pulao, and here is the stock - boy does it have a ton of aromatics in it....

      Tomorrow, I am going to try making a cottage pie (one of my stand out faves for a supper with friends) but reimagined (sorry, swallowed a thesaurus) with minced chicken....

              What with the cost of living bullshit, and me not catering for a massive family 24/7 I’ve started doing stuff that suits my tastes and wallet.

              Once a week I find cheap tomatoes and dump 2kg in a pan together with a little sugar and salt, chili flakes, thyme and the peeled cloves of three garlic bulbs. Slow roast on low heat for 2-3 hours.

              It keeps for a week and is perfect for a pasta sauce, bruschetta (especially useful for me, because baking), and a thousand other things. It also tastes glorious and the smell it gives the whole flat is wonderful and lasts a day or two.

                @neph93 sounds fantastic and reminds me of an Ottolenghi recipe we like to do, spiced cherry tomato sauce

                    Steamed spicy chicken balls. Before being steamed. They look really anaemic when cooked, but taste amazing....

                            @endo oysters and cider are never boring!

                            I’m not sure if I’ve been here long enough/have enough cred but my humor won’t let me pass up the opportunity for a “nice balls” joke
                            (Kidding aside those look incredible)
