Well normally yeah. Just mulling over a menu for dinner out next week. I always go the veal..
But the fettuccine with prawns & chorizo sounds awesome too

Decided. Will go the veal and make the pasta, prawns and chorizo at home.

Managed to get my hands on some awesome Snapper today. We're so lucky over here (RAdelaide/SA)... So much good produce.

My methods depend on the pan.

1. Good quality pan
2. Heat it to high before adding anything (you don't want to go too hot in a coated/non-stick pan or you'll ruin the coating though)
3. Season the thing you are frying with shit tonnes of Murray River pink salt (this is a vital step).
4. Add the fat to the hot pan (If using butter add some oil to temper it so it doesn't burn).
5. Let get just to smoking point.
6. Add well seasoned thing you are frying.
7. Give it a quick jiggle around initially to ensure it has fat underneath it, but don't agitate it after... Just let it sit heating for a bit to seal and contract away from the pan.
8. Flip (if required) or turn as needed (once sealed).

If all else fails add bloody tonnes of oil and deep fry the thing!

Sometimes I wonder back in the day, how peeps decided that stuff like truffles or bird nest soup was edible.
What makes someone decide that yes, I will eat this lump of fungi buried underground?

I have those exact thoughts! Why would you eat that???

How can something that looks so terrible taste so good?

Squid (I caught myself) fried with chorizo atop my fennel, pear, mint and walnut salad

Looking slightly more attractive than my last photo, but equally tasty, is tonight's flourless almond and tangerine cake.

The remainder is going to work in the hope that someone wants to eat it.

I'd eat it... But I'd eat just about anything.

I made up a orange juice /mustard seed/honey glaze for the beef chipolatas last night. 3 ingredients punching above their weight is all I can say.

Recipe for the glaze can be found here: https://www.harveybeef.com.au/recipes/honey-mustard-glazed-chipolatas/

A nice addition to give those plain beef chipolatas a little something.

Nice!! What's in the quiche?

 

[BloodySwan]

Nice!! What's in the quiche?

Spinach, cherry tomato, and some cheese called "pickled onions" along with 6 eggs beaten with a bit of milk, salt and herbs. Took 10 minutes to prep and 30 minutes in the oven so was extra pleased with how quick it was!

That moment when you ask for chorizo at the deli & the lady says, 'sure, I'll just get some from the smokehouse out back'

Fair to say Wallabies of all forms have been forgettable recently. Add this one to the list.
