RE: I made a curry
um jock... you are starting to sound very 'ghey', lol
nah that finished curry looks bloody awesome!! Just haven't seen much of this 'domesticated kitchen Jock' before, lol ;)
Btw waitrose meat is damned good for a supermarket tho. i buy waitrose organic meat IF i eat meat (which is rarely). Their organic meatballs are super value and quality. Knock those up in a tomatoe sauce, chuck in a 1/2k packet of petit pois and serve with pasta! yummy! their free-range organic sausages rule too
also waitrose own brand veggie moussaka is excellent too for a packet food. Mind you, there's no local butchers, greengrocers etc in chelsea unless u wanna pay 25 quid for a slice of bacon from some posh butchers in chelsea village. But i dont think you are allowed to purchase from them unless you arrive in a Range-Rover Vogue or Disco 3 with an asian nanny in tow... so waitrose it is.
i been so busy recently desperately trying to finish this next round of logic tutorial videos that i'm livin on falafel wraps lately. There's a load of arabic shops round the corner so i get the flat bread, falafel, yogurt, corriander leaves and some cucumber etc and make veggie wraps, tasty!! for a side dish i get humous and pour tahini into it & mix it all together for that extra seseme hit ;)
i swear tho, when this videos is done i'm gonna have a bloody great 16oz fillet steak!
ooh i tell you what i had the other day - fresh grilled mackerel. I'd forgotten how good a simple grilled mackerel tastes, bloody delicious AND cheap as chips!
so i'm in the supermarket and i say to the fish assistant "Mate, grab that mackerel there and hold it upright by the tail", and he's like "what"? It took me like a minute & a half to explain & get him to do it.
That's how you tell how fresh a mackerel is - hold the bugger by the tail-end so it's head points upwards vertically - the more it droops over the less fresh it is. it should be stiff & firm (oo-er missus!) tip! ...yes i used to work on a fish counter as a saturday job when i was a kiddie *sigh*
