Experiments With Food

^ I’ve made with smoked paprika and Leffe before

 

‘Twas truly scrumptious

 

The spiks make truly wonderful paprika it myst be said.

BWG's Bolognese Bonanza:

 

Steak mince from the butcher - about 1KG (Don't buy packet supermarket shite. It's too watery for this and will end up just boiling in the pan).

Tinned San Marzano tomatoes - about 400g per 500g of mince  (can use any chopped tomatoes really but the better the quality, the better it will taste).

Tomato Puree - however much you want

Red Onion - chopped roughly

Carrots - chopped roughly

Garlic paste

Chicken Liver - chopped quite finely, almost into a paste.

Whole Milk

Chicken Stock pot

White wine

 

Fry up garlic, carrot and onion until soft and set aside

In the same pan, brown your mince off and make sure it's well worked and you don't have any clumps through it.  Nobody wants a nugget of mince in their bolognese.

As soon as your mince is browned, pour in some milk and reduce it a bit, but not completely.

Chuck in your livers and stir them through the mince

Put in the puree and stir it, as soon as it sticks to the bottom of the pan, pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the pan

Stir the vegetables back in

Pour in the chopped tomatoes, chicken stock pots and stir

Reduce to the lowest heat possible and leave to simmer for 3-4 hours uncovered.  Stir every 15 minutes or so to stop anything burning on the bottom of the pan.  If it looks like it's reducing or drying out too much, just top it up with white wine.

In the final hour, season with salt and pepper and with herbs.  I use Basil, Oregano, Thyme and Parsley.  I put in quite a bit of balsamic vinegar as well which really sharpens it up.

 

You're welcome.

Milk and Chicken lovers???

 

Well never!!

 

I put mushrooms in mine - anyone else?

 

Sometimes do.  Sometimes I also put in some Paprika or Cayenne if I'm feeling wild.

[Redforever86]

Fuck yir milk Maggie.

[Reed or deed]

would experiments with food not involve trying to use it as a substitute for mortar or something rather than posting recipes?

 

Fucking right.

 

I used Philadelphia to grout tiles last week.

I used fake jars of mango chutney to create a home made explosive device. When the unwitting cuckold husband of the bird I’m shagging removes the cap, his body and heart will be exploded into tiny pieces and so will those of his Indian cementer sweetheart.

Tried once again to make restaurant style chicken tikka masala last weekend.

 

Tasted nothing like chicken tikka masala. 

 

All these online recipes touting theirs are tasting "just like the restaurant" are full of fucking shite.

Right thats you and RF off the dinner party guest list. You're going to feel pretty glum when we are all having a rip roaring time eating bolognese and drinking milk without you. There will also be drugs.

[Dons79]

Drink gallons a milk a day, nae broken bones in ma life, might be a correlation or a might be a jammie bastard, point is milk is brilliant

[Poodler]

Soya milk isn't from an animal

[Parklife]

Bizarre that we drink another animals milk. Can only drink milk if it’s freezing cold . Anything anywhere near room temperature and I may as well be downing a pint of jizz.

You should drink breast milk. Milk from the human cow. Luxury milk.

[Parklife]

Neither you or parkie have supped boob milk in your adulthood. No way.

Oh because that would be weird? Where as drinking milk from another species, some cow you've never met, that's normal, yeah?

[Bluto10]

few on here prob had a good few pints of mans milk in their time

[Hewitt a the pies]

Certainly have . Fucking bogging.

Do you get many good Indians over you're neck of the wood?

 

A UK-style Indian was something I missed when I first came over here... but the standard has improved dramatically over the past 10 years.  Some cracking UK/Indian food now available. 

[Bluto10]

Indians and Chinkies are rubbish here.

 

always get my feed of them when in the I’m to compensate

[Parklife]

Correct.

Freak

[Parklife]

When Parky was a young gender neutral Jimmy fixed it for him to milk a cow blindfolded

Good original joke, m8.

There's been one decent Indian restaurant I found in my time here, but it closed down a while back so I'm left eating what the Yanks consider CTM. It's a far inferior product to the British version. 

 

Actually, there's another good one in Kentucky. I lived there for a while... but came back up the road, so getting to that particular Indian is problematic. 

 

If I can find a close enough recipe I can make my own. That's the plan. 

 

So if anyone has a bona fide British CTM restaurant recipe... 

[Ke1t]

Here you go Corey.......I mean @@Ke1t

 

This is tasty

 

INDIAN BUTTER CHICKEN

 

 

I usually cook it longer on a low heat

 

 

I'll print those off and give them a go... do you, by any chance, have a recipe for Chicken Tikka Masala? 

[Sonoftherock]

Chicken thigh works much better than breast in a curry too I find... breast can really dry out.

[Bluto10]

^^^ course you notice.

 

it gives it all that taste ..., sorry I mean, that oily greasy look, texture and flavor.

[Ke1t]

Do you not have to use tons of  Ghee butter for the authentic taste?

 

@@Kelt @bad_delia

 

Fuck knows. 

 

Those wee Indian lads think they're Willy Wonka... point blank refusing to give up their secret recipes.  And anyone trying to get hold of their formula ends up inflated like a poppadom,  or wheeled off by Oompa Loompas. 

 

I imagine.

 

[Bluto10]

Aye ok, Galloping Gourmet

just call me Atul.
