Did you know you can buy a 24 carat Gold Dildo with a (real dyed pink) fox fur tail on the end Now, how does that stack up against a 2 bed flat yield ? Nette:-S

We cooked this on a large scale (something like 2000+ portions over 3 days) last year The rabbit is way too boney to fiddle about trying to fillet, so this is how we did it Portion the carcass into saddle and fore plus the rib and belly, cut these again in half down the middle. Total =6 pieces. Coat the meat in Flour, Mustard Powder plus S&P. Then brown in a tray with mirepoix (inc celeriac) Button or wild mushrooms + a few smokey lardons Ale or Cider is good, as is a flash of cream as d_c suggests Once braised, slip the meat from the bones (close fitting rubber glove do well here) Proceed as you will to Pie Making... Flat Leaf, Thyme , or Sage is my pref Oh and ....."What time we eating..(?)" Netts(tu)

Sabadiego A sausage so revered it has its own army of sorts Knights of the Order of the Sabadiego sausage (there's even a Order of Sabadiego sausage journalism prize, I kid you not) Anyway I cooked and ate this last-night/tonight. The dish originating from the San Sebasti?n area of Spain Pork on the bone with Octopus and the Sabadiego sausage, slow braised with white beans, celery, carrot in a rich tomato, paprika and molasses stock It isn't for the faint hearted but it is incredibly good. Dark, earthy, with the Octopus and the almost peaty taste of the blood sausage coming through, all backed up with a little Cayenne heat to make your lips and tongue tingle If you see any, try some A perfect "saturday sausage" for the unpredictable seasonal weather Nette(tu)

Curtain's Classic Dry Roasted Spuds Par-boil some chunky spuds until nearly soft through with 2-3 cracked but not skinned cloves of garlic in the salted water. Drain off, but be careful as they are delicate when hot. Turn out onto a couple of plates and leave somewhere to cool well ( this firms them up & alters the starch structure in the spud ) Take a pan and heat olive/rapeseed oil mix until hot. Place the spuds in batches in a large bowl with some of the hot oil in the bottom, drizzle the oil over the top and then gently toss them ( this coats and roughens them ) I also scatter some rosemary over them at this stage A light twist of salt & pepper Take a baking flat covered in heavy baking paper/sheet ( screw it up, then pull it out flat-ish so it catches any loose oil in the crinkles ) and bake/dry roast the spuds in a hot fan oven at 210 ish. They roast to a really golden but light/crispy outer ( and virtually oil free ) In fact, they are heavenly. Rabbit Look up the Kent Game Dealer who trades at Brockley Market. He'll shoot you some Rabbit or Hare to order. Veggie Pie. Make a short pastry crust case with a herbed/cheese Veggie suet cobbler top. Pre-roast a chunky selection of carrots, Butternut & the blue skinned squash, with banana shallots thyme & garlic until firm but not yet ready. A little balsamic works well here. Leave the veg to cool Grilled mushrooms add intense flavour Make the liquid with pearl barley cooked in a good veg stock like Kallo until thick and glossy ( carrot, celery, onion & bay ) Add ale or a little sherry, a little cayenne heat maybe Assemble, glaze and bake the pie Other than that....dunno Netts:-S

Ooo oo miss *puts hand up* I did a job there once, gosh yes, lovely house at the end of Lyndhurst Sq David and erm....can't remember her name, but I do remember him coming to the door wearing a short blue silk ,Japanese print, dressing robe. I said "Hi Karate" as he opened the door, he said "Sorry" in that way that very bright but completely un-self aware people do Next day I set the alarm off & the Police turned up in minutes "Do you know the owner" "Yes, his name's David and he wears a blue silk Kimono" I said The neighbor confirmed this and the Police went away Very nice job it was Netts:-$

...and you thought YOUR family were weird?
Annette Curtain replied to katie1997's topic in The Lounge
The house where-time-stands-still is just down the road from me. I would give anything to have a tour of the place, but alas they are very private Mind you not so private that, they close the curtains at night Not so private that, you can't see years of christmas cards, easter cards all stuck to the walls, mounds of VHS tapes, clothes on hangers in every door way. Not so private that, as you walk by (straining not to look too hard) their three ghostly faces are all lit by the flashing light of the TV and they sit waving out at you. No scratched out eyes though, that's proper weird. Thankfully, my lot here are just plain-old-fashioned-Odd-Balls (I think) Netts:-S -
