Half leg of lamb. Veggies. Garlic. Red wine. Slow cooker for about 4 hours. Roast spuds out of view in the oven.

The leftovers are going in a pie tonight.

I am both disgusted and a little aroused such a thread exists.

Between you and I, I dare not post this in the fancy thread, for fear of being torn apart. But, alas, savvy me takes a left over lunch from work, goujons (hereafter to be referred to as gouj) and potatoes, combine some out of date small wraps, a questionable onion, the end of my jar of jalas and of course CHEESE. Combine for several minutes and you’ll end up with something a pissed head could only dream of after a weekend bender.

You may be surprised to see a drought of potatoes only the Irish could be proud of, but relax my little munchkins, for I will be joining our superior drunk overlords and partaking in school night drinking this evening, saving the remaining of the golden tatties and a singular gouj for afters.




Disaster struck as we lost a Murphy overboard, but I rose to the challenge and polished it off without haste, for I am an unpretentious fool.




Good morrow

Tonights dinner....

My take on fish finger sandwich. It was a roll and it was battered fish fillets, however the original plan was to have 2 potato waffles with it but after cooking (and then checking the best before on the box) they had to go in the bin. They basically disintegrated into waffle dust. Shoving the fish in a roll was a good save.



I'm not fussy on what plates I use.

Same as last Tuesday, Iceland fish and some oven chips, but this time done in the air fryer hence the fish having to be cut in half. Fish is probably a bit over-done, but the chips are better than they were in the oven last week.

The fish looks good. I should get me an air fryer one day, everyone raves about them! BTW ..Your glass plates are very 1970's!

The fish wasn't bad, it was a bit over but better than have it dropping to pieces for that kind of meal IMO. The air fryer is pretty good, even though it's a fairly basic one - 14 minutes as opposed to 23 for the same stuff last week in the oven, and the chips came out better. Plate is just one that's been lying about the house, probably since the 70s, and the only thing I can't use it for is the Aldi "Detroit Style" (a.k.a rectangular) pizza because it hangs off the sides.

Lunch today, two small omelettes from my omelette maker. Nice, as usual, but I wish the plates in the machine could be removed for cleaning.



Some bits of tomato, chilli, onion and cheese. Must remember to get some ham next time. Mains cable for scale.

Is that a euphemism for 'frying pan'?

My gf often picks this up from some place near portobello. I'm not a foodie really but I like tasty grub.

Half price from the Coop £1.75 bargain. Box said 'microwave' only but we don't have one so had to decant into a dish and sprinkle some water over the top and Ali foil it - so much hassle, felt like cooking rofl Bloody lovely might even do some instant mash next time hehe

Edit: When it comes to food I have no shame so will probably cross post this into the 'posh' thread as well spin
