Rabs Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Scored with fork, parboiled then roast in olive oil m'lud? I believe that is the Michael Caine way...not a lot of people etc etc. Yes sir.. Of course :) But a better trick is too just shake them up a bit in what ever you use to drain the water that does a good job of roughing them up. Also one of the tricks is to pre heat the roasting pan with oil.. When you then put the potatoes in you get a nice sizzle and you should pour the oil over the tops of the potatoes.. 200C for an hour or so (or when they look good)... They were almost like very large chips.. YUM :) Edited September 15, 2018 by Rabs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdgm Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) Last night an easy one; plaice in breadcrumbs and onion rings. Wonderful. Tonight - roast chicken, sweet potato, parsnip (they didn't roast too well), carrot, cabbage, gravy. Half a lemon, 2 limes, 3 oranges squeezed into a pint glass and topped up with water.

Digger Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Those spuds look sensational! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) Those spuds look sensational! They were.. Even though I actually ate them, looking at the picture makes me want to eat them all over again (its literally making my mouth water)... So good. Id eat them every day if they wernt so bad for you :) I think it also comes down to choosing the right potato.. Those ones are maris pipers...

Retired Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I ordered a Bison burger out and got some barbecued beef burger with pulled pork on top instead. Then the waitress never came back while I was eating the salad first and didn't notice the screw up at first. I tried it and it wasn't bad though. Quite sure it had much more carbs though.

jdgm Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I ATE HAGGIS FOR LUNCH TODAY!!!! First time I've had that; a supermarket mark-down, comes in a tube with a clip either end and you wrap in foil and put it in oven with a little water for 75 min. Turned out really good with spinach, carrots and gravy. Like mince but...different, I'll definitely have it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
