What are you eating? (food porn)

[grollies]

If I ate half of what is posted here I'd be a right fat bastard.

 

I could really go a hot sausage roll right now though, my missus was expert at them back in the UK.

Gentlemen, that is a treat. Old-fashioned apple cake

 

http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/old-fashioned-apple-cake-with-brown-sugar-frosting-recipe

 

Changes I made:

Reduced the sugar to 1/3

Used fresh ginger finely chopped

Lemon icing on top instead of the frosting

Used Cashew nuts instead of walnut or pecans

An MK Restaurant style set up at home. All veg, of course.

That's always a fun way to cook.

But the down side is it leaves little room to eat. I find my table gets cramped when I cook at the table.

Cramped? Really? 

Sure does! We only had everything up for the pic, then pulled up the coffee table and offloaded some.

You are a hero to use wine glasses with stems and not spill it.

I could have plated this more nicely but didn't intend to share it until I had tried what it is. Pork loin in a mustard marinade with apple vinegar sauce. Roasted sweet corn which I ended up smearing with a aioli mayo and a simple greek salad with wildly odd shaped pieces of feta. 

 

The Feta was one that came in actual brine and better than most I have had in Thailand i think it was My Choice Waitrose brand available at Tops. It is the first time I had that particular make in Thailand. Much nicer than the usual stuff wrapped in plastic or the cubes in oil. 

 

The sauce is not yet on the pork in that pic but shared this anyway because it is a new recipe for me and I thought it is a keeper.

Grabbed some rhubarb at the Royal Project Store.
Time for cake I would say [emoji16]

I personally hate that stuff but give you a like as it reminds me of my Grandma. She loved it and had a patch of it. I will grow a patch on my land when I return to the USA later this month. Just in case guests want some. Easy to grow. It is also a pretty enough plant around the edges of a house.

There is also a more commercial variant you can buy in the supermarket and bake at home. Not really recommended 

 

 

Not really recommended?  My Thai better half and I regularly visit the Netherlands and I can tell you that half the contents of an Albert Heijn store are regularly transported back to the UK and half of that again is transported to LOS on our subsequent visits.  My wife also has a severe kroketten and bitterballen fetish. 

 

The above pictured worstenbroodjes would disappear in one sitting.  I don't know where she puts it all.

an old favorite is whole pork loin generously slathered with dijon wrapped in foil and oven cooked...the dijon combines with the juices then just add a little cream for a nice sauce...

 

sure would be nice to find any salad greens and any feta where I live...then with a convenient bakery with fresh arabic bread twice per day I'd be back in hog heaven...

The apple vinegar is what made that one good.

Let's agree to disagree 

 

But why don't you make your wife happy by making these things by yourself (or teach her how to do)? Much more convenient as importing them to the UK and then to Thailand. This proves only that Albert Heijn knows how to use preservation products to make this possible...

 

Recipes for bitterballen, kroketten and other fried snacks you can find here (in Dutch). 

 

Below a pic of home made 'bitterballen'. The taste of the sauce is similar as the ones from Mora etc, the big difference is that mine actually contain some meat. Best consumed with some Dijon mustard and a beer

Bit of bacon and mayonnaise and that would be decent. Are those sauce bottles just for show or do you drink them using the cups either side too? Only joking looks decent but yes a touch of bread amiss.

recently found some HYDROPONICALLY GROWN curly leaf lettuce at our small local tescos...and I unearthed my 'built like a brick shithouse' salad spinner bought in the middle east years ago...

 

chopped local tomatoes and dressed with locally available olive oil and red wine vinegar recently purchased from foodland in BKK...but no flatbread available to eat it with; gonna havta coordinate better next time and make some...maybe next time with tahini sauce homade from local sesame seeds (they gots loads down the market, 500g bags produce of thailand)...

 

maybe better with some french bread, french bread is better fer wiping up the dressing left in the bottom of the bowl...who's got a good recipe? the ones I've seen on the internet look too simple...

I'll put you out of your misery, Naam.  

 

A utensil like a spoon or fork, or both, whisked around in a circular motion and occasionally tossed, or, alternatively, tossed and occasionally whisked around in a circular motion, would achieve the same aim.  Whilst this is a highly complicated procedure it will certainly save you some money.

I think you forgot the colander, otherwise no water is going to drain off.
