This gorgeous Asian chick taught me everything I know

sorry no such thing as a gorgeous Asian chick

Doesn't she  mention you at  1.20 as well?

Nice chick

First of all, select a suitable cat......

1-20! I'll have to listen again Mmh.

A very sad limp carrot

I'd add coconut cream at the end and no sugar. Looks nice though, simple and quick to cook, I may try it.

It was only a pinch of sugar, O',although I'll leave it out too. Not had any added sugar for years. Do you know if the spuds were raw or pre-cooked?

It was all raw and why she cooked the spuds and carrots the longest. I'll give it a try later, I have all those spices and ingredients except coconut cream but I'll go by her method.

I'm a meat eater but love my veggies, I bought a mixed bag in Tesco yesterday (carrot, turnip, onion, leak) so it's good timing. Thanks for the link.

Kenny if you avoid sugar try a little syrup (not the toupe type )

Ta Kenny, will look at her other stuff.

I might do that hector'.

You're welcome chaps. She really does make it very simple.

In theory, that is. With my culinary skills nothing is easy.

She is very good at explaining and making things look easy.

Just had a look at her cooking chicken curry.

Good stuff.

I made it but found the heat very tame. I'm not a heat lover BTW but I added some chilli oil which gave the required kick. I also used a full tin of tomatoes. I covered it with foil and let it simmer for 10 minutes but the veg still have some crunch to them. I added parsnips 5 minutes after potatoes but I should have added them at the same time. Parsnips usually go to mush if cooked too long but instead I never cooked them long enough.

It's pretty nice, I'll serve it with some pork chops later.

I'll try extra chilli powder in that case.I'm determined to use exactly the same ingredients as she did and cook in the same way. Should be a laugh.

What CAN go wrong? lol

Yeah, follow instructions but taste it first before you add any chilli. It may not have been as spicy as I used a full tin of tomatoes.

Yes, that's the reason I would imagine.

Might be stating the obvious but, what is mega important is to add spices and herbs, and particularly chilies, a little at a time and taste, taste, taste.

What CAN go wrong? lol

What can easily go wrong is treating it too casually, and trying to do other stuff at the same time. If you must leave it, always set the timer.

My daughter bought me chilli oil at XMas and I didn't have a clue what to do with it.

I've found it's use, feckin brilliant!

Keep topping it with more oil as the heat just seems to go on and on.

I have a bottle that is many years old but, admittedly, I do keep adding a chilli or two.

What CAN go wrong? lol

I was thinking more in terms of setting fire to the kitchen, not is the taste a bit out.

about making a vegetable curry.

Chilli oil is great. Keep it for as long as you like.  Nothing can live in it.  Adds a kick to everything and you know, gut-wise, exactly where each meal is/was inside of you.  And chillis, in moderation, extend life-spans.

Hi Libido ...did you get over that Bronchial ****..I've been contemplating death since New Year.

It was really bad.  Ironically I had the flu jab for the very first time recently but, apparently, it was only 3% effective. They picked the wrong strains but given the time it takes to make up the mixture they only get one shot at it.  I'm amazed it didn't kill my mother but I suspect previous flu-jab mixtures covered some of it. 

Anyway, now I'm peachey.  And I hope you are too - or soon.

Getting to the point where my mind percieves a better day  but it' been really hard.

I keep getting offered the Flu jab but have to keep telling them I never Actually get Flu , maybe they'll Listen Longterm

Why offered?  You ain't 65?

Not Keats.  You want Ernest Dowson.  Accelerated decrepitude but beauty regardless.

eep in the shady sadness of a vale
Far sunken from the healthy breath of morn,
Far from the fiery noon, and eve's one star,
Sat gray-hair'd Saturn, quiet as a stone,
Still as the silence round about his lair;
Forest on forest hung about his head
Like cloud on cloud. No stir of air was there,
Not so much life as on a summer's day
Robs not one light seed from the feather'd grass,
But where the dead leaf fell, there did it rest.
A stream went voiceless by, still deadened more
By reason of his fallen divinity
Spreading a shade: the Naiad 'mid her reeds
Press'd her cold finger closer to her lips.

Not sure but have been offered the last couple of years bodil
I assume I actually have to Pay , I assume that's why they so Kindly offer

OK Boss...I'll check that out.
