First ever attempt at making pizza dough.



If I'm being critical it needed a little more crisping on the bottom, either with a nice thick tray or a pizza stone. But overall I'm very happy.

That looks spot on.

Pizza, take 2:



A little less soft in the middle today, so even better than yesterdays.

A bit too windy to get the rotisserie out yesterday so chicken kebabs instead.
Chicken breast marinated in a mix of A&O Big Phat Greek rub, lemon juice and yoghurt. Onion salad and shop bought flat breads. Did the job.

They look fantastic. Is that the stuff ? https://angusandoink.com/collections/bbq-rubs-inje...

Cheers

Juicy Lucy burgers on the bbq today.
Two quarter pounders (shop bought caramelised onion) burgers, flattened out and smooshed together around a nice big slice of mozarella. On a toasted brioche bun (that fell apart a bit with the meat juices)
One of my better efforts to date.

Yep that's the stuff, they do loads of great rubs. For the kebabs I normally go 3.5% weight rub to meat then wing it with yoghurt and lemon juice.

Brill - thanks for that.

Added some Hot n' Hostile seasoning into the basket. Fancy some of that on some chicken.

It was my wife's birthday last week, she requested crab which wasn't available so I did her pan fried fillets of Dover Sole with a shallot, prawn, herb and butter sauce, fresh English asparagus and a special treat of oven chips.

Looks lovely but seeing as it's a special occasion, could you push the boat out and peel, cut and deep fry some chips?

And why did you give here all the small chips no one wants, she only got 2 decent ones and the rest seem odds and ends. Did you eat all the long and thick ones yourself

Sorry to be harsh, but it's chips we are talking about.

Harsh but Fair.

I would have loved to have given my wife the meal she deserved by cutting and frying her some proper chips but we don't have potatoes in the house, we're on this Keto/Low Carb diet and they're unfortunately forbidden.

I got away with the oven chips because there just wasn't enough time to do anything else, they were all that was left in the packet and the first chips we've had since early January.

I'd like to say that I got all the best ones as that's the way it normally is but that's a picture of my plate, she did actually get all the long and thick ones and they were McCains Gourmet Chips, nothing but the best for her!!

Another curry tonight.

This one is chicken rezala, a mild but flavoursome Bangladeshi dish, with poppy seed raita, khichdi (spiced basmati rice and red lentils) and a variation of panch phoran veg, using what I had available in the fridge.

[6th Gear]

Lamb Kofta

Minced lamb, fresh mint, fresh parsley, coriander powder, cumin powder, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, grated garlic clove, green chili, salt & pepper.

Served with a cooling yoghurt dip made with garlic, mint leaves, lemon zest & cucumber. Seasoned with salt & cumin powder.

Bloody good job.

Put your oven rack lower down, bottom cooks quicker, top cooks slower, simples

Leave the oven on max for one hour minimum before cooking and used dried basil when making your pasata instead of burning fresh leaves on top. Even places like Lucali's get that wrong.

I'm a fierce pizza critic but only 2 pizzas in you're already doing well.

Surely an hour’s pre heating is overkill?

Domestic oven?

[Tickle]

Souvlaki, pork tenderloin and chicken thighs.

Also with a Tirokafteri dip and thin cut wedges.

[illmonkey]

Meatballs from the other night.



Made from scratch chicken tikka masala, wonderful dish. With home made Bombay potatoes.



Photos don’t do either justice!

Had a hankering for a doner, had to make it at home. Made the pitas too.

The meat was spot on, just like the real thing!

[craigjm]

How did you make the meat?
