Shot a brace of Canadas

Plucked and dressed

Burgerised the more shot up breast meat

Burgers for tea

Canada Goose has a dreadful culinary reputation but if you know what to do with it - delicious
Its nice to see all the steps from the whole bird to burgers!

What do people says is wrong with the meat?
Gonna be hated here, and say

He did all that and stuck it in a burger ...


rolleyes


And that's from me, the guy who does the doughnut burger.... and other crimes against the palate




If you have a Canada goose at least make it a once in a life time experience that is different, not turn it into McDonalds


And the end result looks fking horrible to boot .....


Blackened bits and a Heinz ketchup bottle in the background as well ...

The pork shoulder is £3.85 per kilo... it was next to this

worlds most expensive off cuts at £30 per kg laugh
Not really a valid comparison! Beef stir fry done with fillet can be sublime, and the tips are the cheapest way to get it!
I'd rather use Ribeye offcuts for any beef dish over fillet steak to be honest.

And they are still off cuts ...

I decided on the Instagram favourite of smashed Avocado, Eggs on a Brioche Flatbread. Probably the healthiest thing I've ever made myself.

Sorry but that sums up everything wrong with the modern world, save us from smashed avo and brioche please..... frown

Pret has gone from my favourite to my least favourite sandwich shop because of intolerable food groups like this biggrin

This is from The Samling in Ambleside, a few miles away from where I live.

It was bloody incredible, and how they did it for £27.50 per head for three courses I have no idea.

(having said that, their top whisky was £2,250 per shot, and a glass of glacier water was £250)

Last night's homemade Chicken Dopiaza, done restaurant style using a premade curry base. Genuinely better than I've had it from most takeaways and actually pretty easy to make if somewhat time-consuming.

Naan is from the Asian corner shop, three huge ones for £1.50!

Absolute lifesaver. Half that recipe will make enough for 2x 3 or 4-person curries depending on how hungry you are.
I tend to use vegetable or chicken stock for about half of the water as I like the extra richness it adds.

There's a range of very good recipes using the base on that same site.
I've done the dhansak, chilli chicken and now dopiaza and they've all been excellent.

Wasn't sure about posting as it doesn't look anywhere near as good (or as much) as it was, but might as well.



Sauerkraut seemed a good thing to have in at the moment. Small onion and 2 big garlic cloves fried in ghee, then green peppers oregano and fresh thyme, half a jar of rinsed kraut in + chicken stock and cooked down a little, then in oven with sausages on top (some nice pork ones from local farm shop). Tasty with honey mustard lick

Today I used a pack of braising steak and a couple of chorizo rings to make a big pot of chilli. Prepared this morning and slow cooked in the oven for about 6 hours, resulting in tender steak and overall deliciousness.

The photo was taken after having fed a family of 3 (accompanied by rice); what's left in the pot should be good for the same again at least 3 times over. Good thing really, as the canned tomatoes and beans that went in to it - kidney, borlotti, haricot and black - are probably unobtainable at the moment, at least without breaking into a hoarders' kitchen...

Best thing to do in a lock down, roast dinner and champagne.



Whilst roasting I also knocked up a Chili for some mid week dinners and a freezer batch
