Finally, and this is for the sanctimonious smartarses, I've just has a skim back through the thread to see what you've posted recently as examples of your fantastic cooking skills; quelle surprise to see, oh, not very much.

Anyway, I enjoyed my tinned fish and salad, thanks for caring. Bon appetit, whatever you put in your gob!
Stop getting your pants in a bunch.

Your dinner looked absolutely miserable, and I've no idea what compelled you to share it with the world.
You can’t whine like a baby about people doing what it says on the tin. Your arrogance tastes bitter and your pompous attitude isn’t welcome.

You know 100% what this thread is about and if you don’t like it you know where the back button is. If you want good food and recipes may I suggest you go to some food websites? Not a motoring site that hosts your average joe, well most of us are, who just want to share some photos and have a bit of laugh at their own expense sometimes.

Regardless, CdG, what wine did you pair with your mackerel?

Seyre1972, glad you’re back in the real world. Sometimes comfort food is best, but a distinct lack of cheddar poured all over it!

Slow cooked ox cheek chilli, worked well. Basically MC's receipe with some dried peppers in the base and 5 odd hours cooking.

Is that Feta on top Tony??
It is, the cheapo one from Aldi. Very mild, almost like cheese curds, not very feta like. Tend to use if on anything semi-Mexican, fajitas, burritos etc

Never really thought of that on mexican. Mrs Tickle uses yogurt to take the heat out, will suggest Feta. It's something we usually have in too.

laugh Yes, he was the chap that criticised wine pairings too; I'd forgotten that. Pity he doesn't post his own food - must be epic.

I always thought this thread was similar to the breakfast thread, with some light hearted mickey taking, but something appears to have happened? It’s *show us your*, not *show off your* in the title?

And I like tinned mackerel by the way.

Me too. It's a broad church, with some really lovely looking food, some unusual combinations and, of course, peas. I hope the really good cooks aren't put off.

Glad you're out of hospital btw, get well soon.

All good, but what on earth is a rag pudding???

OK, lmgtfy:


Rag pudding is a savoury dish consisting of minced meat and onions wrapped in a suet pastry, which is then cooked in a cheesecloth. Invented in Oldham, the dish is also popular in Bury and Rochdale, and is eaten across the Lancashire area. Rag pudding pre-dates ceramic basins and plastic boiling bags in cookery, and so the cotton or muslin rag cloths common in Oldham were used in the....

an ex of mine sold glassware for a while and different shaped glasses do taste different! To do with where it lands the drink on your tongue. White wine tall, hits the back of your tongue; red wine more curved, hits the front of your tongue. They ran glass tasting sessions.
