Grasshopper Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 1 hour ago, Mess said: We are about a hour away from our Easter feast. The turkey should be ready in about an hour. Since it's only Lynne and I this year we only bought a small 12 pound one. We are having my famous chorizo sausage and pecan stuffing, roast carrots and turnips along with garlic roast potatoes. Yum! Happy Easter Everyone. It all sounds very good, but the turnips, never liked them, although I would try them now, but sure not as a kid.... Enjoy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I’m thinking this bank holiday would be nicely rounded off with a curry and a glass of crisp white wine. Someone told me Spain (and all other countries) dont really do takeaways like we do here? Is this true? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure it tastes better if you’ve worked your socks off prior and don’t have em very often! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can even take your own nice recipient instead of having to use crappy take away plastic. It'll be a mystery as to why you would prefer to eat soggy food instead of fresh from the kitchen, but to each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tym Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I dint mess around, i had mum teach me how to cook all the stuff i ate as a kid, down to her apple pie, made up a folder on mums home cooking. I must not be very good at it cause i dont weigh very much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Not blowing my own trumpet (except apparently I am ) but I have a pretty good reputation on the food front. I rarely eat out because a couple of mouthfuls in I wonder why the hell I’m paying for the rubbish being served but after a long weekend of cooking Im happy for a takeaway curry- something I think the 1st 2nd and 3rd wave generation immigrants do better than uk based plebs (if you go to the right places) and certainly not second rate fodder. This weekend Ive made hot cross buns three times, a course Brussels pate, smoked salmon (more a cured gin/salt n sugar denaturation than a normal ‘cure’), rare roast beef, cheese board with quince jam and grapes, scotch eggs (made with good eggs and decent sausage meat), marmalade cake, coconut macaroons, and millionaire shortbread just for extras. Main course was slow cooked lamb (big joint, 12 hours cooking with plenty of herbs), roast potatoes, honey roast parsnips, brussel sprouts and chorizo butter, potato and spinach gratin, shallots and garlic roasted in lemon cream, wee sausages roasted in marmalade n cranberry and obviously some fine gravy. oh forgot I also made eggs benedict and pancakes n crispy bacon for breakfasts. Tomoz itll be lobster Thermidor. But this evening the curry and a day off has been excellent 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
