Got an epic hangover today. Started drinking at 1. Got in at 12. So to celebrate such a momentous occasion I’m going to a Chinese buffet restaurant.
Had this Tartiflette stuff last might, regional dish. Very nice; basically potatoes, ham and melted cheese in a dish, roasted. Thought I'd lose a bit of weight here as they days are ****ing knackering but a 3 course meal every night with some beers might scupper that. The desserts are bloody lovely, had chocolate fondue last night. No idea what's on offer tonight, will soon see.
We had pork. The pig was raised and slaughtered by someone we know so pretty much from the farm to our table via the oven. It was exceptional.
I'm cooking a form of sweet and sour.. It was born from the six cooked sausages i did last night and wanted to use. So basically, i fried loads of garlic, carrots, mushrooms, onions, and sliced new potatoes, added pork, as i chopped up a pork loin steak. Added the sausages which i sliced, then a pack of chorizo. Hoyed in a jar of sweet and sour, plus some water, added a **** load of noodles... Let simmer, until i can be bothered to have it...
Yeah, was ****ing hot though. 600,000 scovilles and meant to be used as a cooking ingredient, not as a sauce to pour all over your dinner. Wish I'd read that before. I've got the next one up from it as well in terms of heat, **** trying that. Need a pippete, gloves and goggles for that ****.
Tonights meal has already been decided. I've got a lovely looking rump steak from asda. It's marinating in soy sauce and steak seasoning as we speak (i know some don't approve of this) Gonna go with a creamy mash, not bought, but actually real spuds. Fried garlic mushrooms, and carrots.. With a gravy Basic, simple,
