Thank you WDKYMYS.

I think I can do that recipe.

I might work on a savory version as well.

I made some batter and had north west snapper tonight.

I used rice bran oil and it does not spit much at all.

I cut potatoes into chips and while they were damp put them in a plastic bag with a tiny bit of flour and some Moroccan spice, I shook it around until the flour has stuck to the spud and had left no free moisture.

I placed them in the hot oil for a short time then moved them onto a rack in a baking tray and put them in the oven to crisp them up.
I also had sweet potato chips, but not coated with anything.

Add some steamed broccoli and that was dinner.

It was very nice, probably better than it sounds.

OK, the sofrito for tonights paella is done. Let that cool off then put into a container and put in fridge, flavors can infuse and mingle for hours.

I have a Spanish–style black pudding: pork, spices, pigs blood. No barley or wheat as in “normal” black puddings or bloedwurst (blood sausage.) That will go into the paella as well as an aged chorizo and some big prawns, also some very nice pine mushrooms. Buuurp!!

Reply #33 - Apr 18^th, 2014 at 11:43am I smoke my ribs (yeah yeah, have to keep relighting them) 105°C in cooking chamber, takes 2 hours to cook the ribs. Best ribs are from feral boar but they must be basted—not much fat on them.

Bit early for dinner.
It's lunchtime here but I have a very nice cheese toastie....

fine dining at its best.

Last week outside the Milano Duomo my choice was a McDonalds.
I'm no food snob.

no food snob doesn't describe it , lunacy is a better suited word

whats wrong with you?

I still dream of the pizza I had in Florence, frutti de la mere, cooked in a woodfired oven, superb!

In Paris I made friends with a bunch of American students, one of who bought and complained about, a Big Mac EVERY NIGHT! Surrounded by wonderful food this idiot bought fast food every night. Another one got wasted on Algerian plonk every night—need to be 21 to drink in the land of the free.

If I was in Paris, my fast food choice would be Moules aux frites (Mussels with chips) or possibly a Sandwich Tunisien or Tunisian sandwich.

A Tunisian sandwich is consists of half a baguette (or one of those square rolls, smeared with harissa (hot chilli paste), finely diced tomatoes, cucumbers, green capsicums, red onions, pickled radishes, chopped potatoes, tinned tuna fish broken up into chunks, green and black olives, red pickled chilli peppers, pickled vegetables known as torshi, olive oil, salt and pepper and a hard boiled egg chopped into chunks.

They usually add a splash of fresh olive oil right at the end.

A Paris - if faut chosir un bœuf bourguignon - toujours.
