Underrated food & drink

Just a bit of 'yang' to the other thread's 'ying': Costco occasionally have a version of their Cuisinart brand waffle makers that has replaceable plates to become a sandwich toaster (the version I bought wasn't this one) so I found somewhere that sells the replacement plates and they arrived on Saturday morning. We've moved on from cheese toasties to breakfast ones (scrambled egg, bacon, blackpudding and/or lorne); pizza (red pesto, mozzarelli, ham, dried mushroom) and 'bantella' (banana and nutella).

An extremely underrated piece of kit that's producing some seriously underrated food.

Next task will be to work out how to do curry in 'naan' tosaties...

 

The humble chickpea.

 

My god why haven't I thought of this?

My sandwich toaster makes the ideal fried egg sandwich.
Butter the outsides of the bread, push the lower slice into the hollows and crack an egg into it. Little dots of butter along the seams, top slice on and hey presto fried egg sarnie perfectly runny yolk and crispy toast. Beware of burnt lips as the yolk runs out.

 

I see your chickpea and I raise you peas beans and pulses.

 

Right sussed it.

hold vertically length ways, slit along the top (like a pitta) pour in curry of choice. Position in toaster sitting on it's hinge, may need to be chocked up with a couple of useless items, like some fruit.

Pulses, beans and peas, we hear it from the people of the town

Wonderful things, so versatile, cheap and tasty. And good for you too!

 

The most under-rated food ? Molten mature cheddar cheese on toast with a splash of ketchup on top.

 

BEGONE SATAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Cheesy beans on toast with think scrape of marmite.. Its polarising I know but I can't beat that for a tasty quick snack, add a few drops of Worcester sauce ..yum!

 

Nice, might have a bang on that tomorrow morning!

 

You were that kid who wanted a cone filled with 5 tiny scoops of ice cream flavours instead of one normal scoop, weren't you?

Plus a flake. And hundreds and thousands.

And chocolate syrup.

Oh, and raspberry syrup.

 

I offer up lentils.

Been cooking some lentil based dishes recently and they're tasty and very filling. A client of my wife's gave her a pressure cooker lentil dish recipe (she's an eastern European immigrant, can't remember exactly where from) and it's simply outstanding. Can't get enough of it.

 

Oh Yes

 

You don’t even know where your wife is from?!

 

Helps keep things fresh when I can pretend she's something new every night.

 

It what happens with these green card scam marriages.

I speak from experience.

 

I just had a lentil soup for lunch - Greek style. Really simple to make and cheap (I make about 10 servings for about a fiver). Delish and filling.

 

liver - I know it's a lot of people's idea of hell, but I love lambs or calves liver.

I also like a chicken liver.

 

What's the Greek name for this? I must of had it in the past.

 

Lentiliaki soupios.

 

Fakes soupa.

 

One of the best dishes I’ve had in a restaurant is whole chicken livers in raviolis with a butter and sage sauce.

 

I’m eating a salad of lentils and quinoa for my lunch at this very moment.

Fascinating chat guys.

 

Fakes news.

 

I'm sure there's better on the LCFC forum.

 

You don't get this pulse sating conversation on other football forums.

 

Lentils Chickpeas Fakes and Cannellini?

 

I grew borlotti beans this summer. They were delicious.

 

I'd get those seen to if I were you.

Hello Mr. Butcher have you got a pig’s head?

No it’s the way I part my hair you cheeky ****!

 

Marmite and cream cheese mixed together on top of a freshly baked and cut French stick - divine.

 

I’m starting a new podcast called ‘Check my Pulse’ available on Acast from Monday.

 

You monster!
