Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

@jordanscollected easy mistake to make!! I usually buy a big bag and they last for best part of a year, losing potency as time goes by and more and more needed in each dish, I have forgotten to adjust quantity when going to a fresh bag before and it can make a meal a bit crazy

@hjl360 Ah nice one! Cheers for the recipe

@Ikeaparty this looks amazing, I don't think I've ever had Laotian food before but I might have to have a google based on this

My free rice cooker bit the dust (Aroma brand), so I figured I’d splurge for a Made in Japan model. First cook is in.

Ottolenghi’s “The Sauce” for pasta
To make it, simply layer a kilo of tomatoes in a baking dish. Then add two whole heads of garlic with just the tops cut off. Throw in a few sprigs of thyme or rosemary and 200 ml of olive oil. After 45 minutes in the oven, you have a perfect pasta sauce—without having to chop a single thing.

Will def do that.....
