A regular favourite of ours, also the Hairy Bikers version is without bones and skin, so less calorific, but with lots of whole roasted garlichttps://www.nigella.com/recipes/spanish-chicken-wi...
I don’t ever recall eating a Chorizo as a sausage, but as a base for many Iberian dishes, its an essential ingredient.

A heads-up: Intermarché currently have chorizo à griller in store and it’s much more chorizo-y and flavoursome than Leclerc’s.
Also Intermarché now also do an own brand extra mature cheddar. Win!
Ha ha! Yep like I mentioned to you they would have later in the year. But thanks for the chad far tip.Also Intermarché now also do an own brand extra mature cheddar. Win!

This begs the question as to how Auchan, for example, are still selling cheddar. I assume bacon and sausages are out, but the stupid thing is that one can still order sausages, cheddar, beef, gammon, pork and bacon delivered by Bacon by the Box because they are in Eire.
I bought some 'British Cheddar' from Aldi here in Germany, and noticed it's from Northern Ireland, so that's a bit of a loopholeHugo a Gogo said:

Not really. It is alright to import meat and dairy products from the UK commercially but not as an individual. All down to elf and safe tea differences now the UK is no longer in Europe.
Think the comment had more to do with NI not being in Great Britain hence not strictly British!Rushjob said:
