I know I shouldn't laugh but have to say I do find it a little unfortunate that in just one short page we have gone from the highs of Doc's magnificent Japanese pancakes to oven chips, microwave rice pouches and DIY McMuffins. :DD

I mean it is food AND cooking, guys - it has to be both. (Man alive, if any Chinese I went to tried to palm me off with that "curry", I'd likely chin them :D )

So you've gone from "not being a snob" to "being a snob" in one page. Congrats.

If you just skin a couple of sausages and form it into a patty before shallow frying, you'll be most of the way there. Although I think McD's seasoning blend isn't quite like any other sausagemeat I've ever had.


These have the seasoning, texture, everything of the McD's patties I think 100% bang on: http://m.tesco.com/h5/groceries/r/www.t ... =289706028

Yeah, sorry for liking fine food and good cooking; I don't feel the need to reinforce my working class credentials by taking exception to the use of 50p's worth of dried Kashmiri chillies or whatever. I'm not that insecure.

I realise I'm wasting my breath but even when I was utterly skint and a bachelor, even then I made the effort to source healthy food which I cooked myself, because you know, by and large I didn't want to eat shit then, any more than I do now.

By and large I don't have any problem with people living off McDonalds, microwaved chips or whatevs but don't call me for making the effort to source interesting spices or whatever else. I wouldn't feed that shit to my dogs, personally (which is just as well, because if I did, the RSPCA would likely be on to me)

"Snob".... lol. I mean really, just listen to yourself.

Each to their own perhaps? I'd genuinely rather eat my fab Chinese style curry than your crab linguine or that uncooked steak that DocG posted a pic of the other week.

Oh I agree, but if you're honest, you certainly had quite an issue with the humble Kashmiri chilli didn't you! (you mention it multiple times in multiple posts - bizarre). I find this funny yet sad; if only people tried these things they'd realise, as I did many years ago, the dusty shite you get in a Schwartz spice jar (assuming they even get this far), packet mix or whatever is a pale imitation of all the wonderful, CHEAP spices you can actually source if you're bothered; it's just so easy now with the web, too.

I don't like snobbery, but I dislike chip-on-shoulder inverted snobbery and the attendant insecurity and wilful, crass philistinism much, much more.

That is hearthly contextually referring to Kashmiri chillis.

This is hearthly having quite an issue with something over multiple posts. search.php?keywords=Parktronic&author=Hearthly&sf=all&sc=1&sd=d&sr=posts&st=0&ch=300&t=0&style=26&submit=Search

I haven't accused anyone, least of all you of malice; I am merely mildly bemused and have pulled your leg (ever so gently) over it.
You've commented loads of times before about my "foody" stuff; when I mentioned I'd cooked humble fresh scallops some other place or other you positively went into overdrive IIRC, same goes for a Vongole. I may be mistaken but there does seem a bit of a theme, which if so is a shame - for you, not me. I'm as happy as Larry!

It doesn't make me angry, I was laughing about it - but seriously I think you're missing out? It's your call though obv.

I wouldn't eat that, only as I don't like peas and curry is one of those things I'll eat happily but wouldn't be top of my list to make. The chips no problem!

I do put a bit of effort into our food, its maybe the one thing my wife and I agree on. I get the best meat and fish I can find, also get my veg when in season from a local pick your own place as well as growing some stuff in my greenhouse\garden.

I also have a couple of sous vide and a big green egg and will do a lot of cooking with those time and weather permitting, also make all our own bread via a bread machine (so not that impressive), will use it for pizza dough as well, also make my own pizza sauce from scratch.

Sometimes I like to eat fish fingers, oven chips and beans though because its nice :) Tonight's dinner is a tuna pasta bake which my wife is making, my son loves it and its easy when you have a busy day with a 3 year old.

The other day I cut a lot of the effort out of pizza, I bought some flat breads that my sister in law recommended for bases and used pre made sauce. It was a much nicer experience, instead of me running around covered in flour and focusing on the cooking we were able to be more relaxed and have my son help make them.

Overall our goal is to be a fresh as possible with our food, but I don't mind cutting some corners to save some time, or even the odd Domino pizza its all about moderation really.

We never eat pre made supermarket food and my son has never had a single pre made baby meal either. Whilst I would never judge anyone on their eating habbits as it none of my business I don't get why some people would rather heat a ready meal in the oven over something like some chicken pieces and vege etc

I was dreaming last night about growing my own tomatoes (exciting times). Haven't done it for a few years. Might make the effort again this year.

I would make sure you get F1 hybrids, I get these from Suttons normally, they are a pain for delivery as they just say "May" or "June" and they turn up on your door at some point that month.

Last year we were on holiday for a lot of May so I bought some plants locally, they were not F1 or super disease resistant, the crops were ok but not as good as I had previous years, also had disease on the fruit and plants as well.

Do you have a really sunny garden, Jem? I'd love to grow tomatoes but they demand full sun and we have hundreds of overhanging trees like birches, willows and mature oaks partially blocking the light esp. during mornings and evenings when the sun is lower in the sky (and filling the air with moisture via their transpiration, nothing dries on the washing line lol). It's also a terrible blight area, I get very little luck even with so-called blight resistant grafted varieties, let alone seed-grown. Gutted, as there's nothing as gorgeous as fragrant, freshly harvested ripe, red, organically grown garden tomatoes on the vine. :( Bizarrely, I've found out that cucumbers *love* it here though, I grew one as a 'lucky dip' last season and it went berserk, cropping about 30 beautiful, sweet-smelling ridge cucumbers off just one plant plonked outside in a patio pot. Just kept watering the bugger.

Jamie Oliver does a great tomato salad recipe:

http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/jami ... ecipe.html

All that lovely Vitamin C etc. and bursting with goodness, makes you feel great. :)

Once we hit about March, the front garden and the back half of the back garden get a LOT of sun. My problem is more the rabbits that I have free ranging in the back garden in all weathers ;) Little buggers destroyed all my strawberry plants. To get round that, I'm thinking I might line the wall in the front garden with grow bags and grow up the dividing fence.

Sounds like a plan, Jem; from what little I know (I am no gardening expert) ensure fence is south-facing and gets all the sun (obv) and good, Levington growbags with Suttons grafted plants, securely staked, well watered and regularly side-shooted, should go like the clappers? :)

(I'd be surprised if rabbits went for tomato plants but I don't actually know tbh)

Mmm, the smell from tomato plant leaves. Bring on the summer.

We should have a gardening / home growing thread.

Do mine in a greenhouse, the grafted plants are usually good had years where I was supplying 2 house each side of me with cucumbers for a month and still had too many

Also found you can get unlucky with either a weak plant or bad graft, had a variety of small cucumbers last year and whilst I got fruit, it was not as good as previous years.

Might consider growing stuff at the new house (we move house this weekend), depending on light, soil etc.

But realistically probably won't!

Am currently making more food though. Current favourite snacking food is getting a shitload of cherry tomatoes, cutting them in half and roasting them at a low heat for a while, with some salt, pepper and a drop of balsamic.

Make for excellent snacking food. So full of flavour. Om nom nom.

One of my faves! Try roasting them whole, on the vine, with cracked sea salt, ground black pepper and good olive oil drizzled on (ideally with a nice, whole wild-caught seabass whilst you're at it, with caper fruits and good green and black olives thrown in as well :D ) Heaven.

Don't reckon that would work (not that you were being serious.) You need some Maillard reaction and to boil some of the water out.

One of my favourite dishes is roasted salmon (with sliced chorizo layered on top because have we met?) with cous-cous that has tons of raw veg through it. I usually do olives, cucumber, tomatoes, avocado, and celery.

That sounds awesome, Cras.
Chorizo and salmon ... sounds intriguing and excellent. May well give that one a go.

Or it can get cooked of course.

Maybe it's one of those Asparagus Conundrums*, where some people can smell it in their wee, and others can't.

Styrofoam is also a low-carb alternative to real chips.
