Take that delicious looking shit to the baking thread

Boy I better step up this weekend then.

Spent 4 months travelling Vietnam a few years back and aside from all the foods being epic my favourite thing that I ate was a dish call Bún Cha, Vietnamese meatballs, normally served with Angel hair rice noodles, a very herby salad and the meatballs with dipping sauce. It’s not quite as good as the real thing but it’s a very good compromise.

I peeled some carrot and cucumber very thinly and pickled them with the goodies from the girlfriends stash of Chinese supermarket goodies. There’s fresh coriander in there, crushed peanuts, fresh chilli, sesame dressed pak choi with a dressing made from coriander, fish sauce, lime juice, rice vinegar, soy sauce, Chinese cooking wine, sugar and sesame oil.

The meatballs have lots of fresh mint, coriander, garlic, lime juice ginger and lemon grass.

Made a Thai Seafood “Pie”* yesterday

*“pie” because people who label something a pie when it doesn’t have a pastry base and sides are fucking frauds who should be sent to re-education camps

So damn true :joy::joy: Every traditional British watering hole in the city serves a pie like that. Those poor tourists who have been served an absolute lie

I’ve stopped ordering pies when I’m eating out due to the amount of times I’ve been served slop in a ceramic bowl with a measly layer of pastry sat on top lol

We’re off to a friend’s house tonight for a mini dinner party. Italian themed so thought I’d do my bit and knock up a sun dried tomato and goats cheese focacia. East choice as I already had all the ingredients in the cupboard.

Came out ok I think!

Great for you having an official excuse not to be able to use the gym.
You can feign guilt but your smirking inwardly be honest.
