What hell have I come across. It's the most uneventful thread ever.

I often cook stuff without recipes but based on what I've seen online. Most end up costing more than shop bought variants (which clearly taste better) but I yearn for minimal "chemicals".

So knowing i photo food i cook, if it looks dodgy, I scrolled back and came across a loaf. I used some old seed packets and yeast I thought was dead but clearly not once warmed up. I did most things wrong and the family spurred it but i had it over the weekend (only toast days) as it cost real money.

I 'raise' you your loaf and give you an even flatter one....

I think the yeast had gone off.

Yes, that was supposed to be a loaf of bread machine bread.

Thst is stew with a pastry lid.
Pie has been much discussed on PH.
It was decreed that pie is only pie if it is fully encased in pastry.
Shortcrust, puff or hot water crust pastry are all acceptable.
Ceramic/glass stew dishes are not.
Shepards,fish and cottage pie with mash lids are also not true pies
Stop being so pretentious hehe
And wrong....

Made from scratch baconburger. I put too much chopped onion in the beef patty and the bacon didn't crisp-up until the beef was over-cooked. Not the culinary success I'd hoped it would be.

Touch of mayo in the patty mix makes a big difference too

Are them chips tiny or is the plate huge?

That surely must be the extra special range? If so, that’s pretentious.

Hold up.

People make toasties without a Breville? How do you get the crunchy burnt cheese bit where the sandwiches are separated?

Was no-one going to mention the pre cut meat?! You'd expect triple cooked chips in a little metal basket, served on some driftwood to accompany pre cut meat.

However, I appreciate the overall down to earth presentation of basic chips on a basic plate.

Because having the money to be able to afford to roast anything other than batter is pretentious
