Did you eat most of it before taking the photo?

No mate I kinda misjudged the old portion size, it's from that hairy biker diet book but everything else I had tried was alright but this was really stingy on portion which was a pisser as was bloody nice

Last night I made rice and chick peas in jalfrezi sauce(from the bottle. I know it's cheating but I'm Indian so I don't need to prove anything) with chopped tomatoes. It was all mixed together into a not-too-watery risotto, with yoghurt and tomatoes on the side. I'll put the photo up tomorrow but it's not much to look at. Tasted nice and my flat mate enjoyed it. Tonight I'm going to turn the leftovers into burritos. I've got the wraps, cheese and kidney beans, and some salsa. It won't be the least bit Mexican but hopefully it won't taste too bad

I'm going for a homemade Chicken Jalfrezi tonight (from scratch )
Wish me luck

Loads of effort - was good if a bit hot (used a wax chili with the small greens) hence my reward



Mmm solero

Hehe nice going as usual.

Today was the holy union of bacon & eggs, plus crumpets!

Behold crumpet french toast with bacon & maple syrup, the egg transforms crumpets into something amazing when dipped in beaten egg & fried the inner texture is all fluffy. Might try topping them with chilli jam next time.

Bacon... Good
Egg... Good
Crumpets... Good
Maple... Good



That is a glorious heart attack on a plate. I want it

I don't know who invented it originally but they were a genuis in choosing crumpets, the tiny holes soak up the beaten egg so when cooked the egg is inside the crumpet as well.

Yeah it's not remotely healthy but it tastes so nice LOL, if i stop posting then you know it did me in hehe

Btw, i noticed the shovel with the spoons i take it when your really hungy you do use that to eat?

The shovel... Oh you get them at the cinema when you buy a Ben and Jerrys core Sunday (the missus)

That curry looked ace. A lack of cooking for me as I am visiting my dad up in north Wales. He views food as fuel, so no fancy food here. However, I am off to Barcelona on Tuesday for a few days to see some friends, and I fully intend to feast away on tapas, sausage, fish, etc.

Wait a second, we've had our fair share of these over the years and have never, never been given a shovel. Want!

Also those crumpet bacon things look awesome.

Made a tasty tea tonight. I had a bash at Tandoori Chicken as I have never made it before and it was great

Well happy

Everything about this goes against convention



Turkey meatballs with a spicy marinara on a bed of jasmine rice with parmesean

Turkey meatballs are so much better and also leaner than pork/beef/veal!

In fact the entire plate (7 balls, 50g rice, marinara and parmesean is only 500 calories!)

Yus the pancake god was at my house this morning

Mini American pancakes with lurpak and maple syrup... Yum

There is a lot of Fried Breakfasts going on in here, how much do you all weigh?

Said the man that posted a pic of a 7 stack burger king

All of the breakfasts I have made recently are all under 450 kcal so less than a mars bar and a coke, it's how you make it and what you cook it with that determines how bad it is.

My pancakes above this morning have exactly the same calorific value as 4 belvita biscuits (or one packet of them) I just know which I would prefer
