Just from my nearest supermarket, their own brand. You obviously won’t get the exact same, but probably something very similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I went French yesterday and cooked chicken provencal Chicken in thyme, salt, pepper, fried, then garlic, no onions cos the wife doesn't like them, no whote wine cos we don't drink it, bit of Worcestershire, chicken stock, rosemary and parsley, then throw in some black olives It was OK, wouldn't rush to do it again I'm OK with spices but not clued up on herbs, need to learn, for example tonight I'm probably going to do a simple pasta in a cream and mushroom sauce, I'll put some black pepper in there but then I'll probably reach for the chilli flakes and the paprika whereas I feel like I should be going for something green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTed Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 My local is having different vendors in for the England matches and for the Croatia game he had a southern fried chicken thingy in which was spot on (see my dirty fries below) I also had some tenders on their own and it came with maple syrup. I’ve seen this referred to on American tv programmes but always thought I’d sounded disgusting. Tried it however and it was absolutely delicious 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I comfortably polished off the Banoffee one, it's one of my favourite desserts. As a dairy milk bar, it's OK, heavy on the banana and nut, not a lot with regards to fudge / caramel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted July 3, 2021 Author Share Posted July 3, 2021 Slightly off topic but what kind of cook am I? I’m the kind of cook that sets out to make beans on toast and 10 minutes later I’m tackling a bin fire. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted July 3, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 3, 2021 Just had a packet of Walkers Steak and Ale Pie special edition flavour. If they haven't just put standard beef and onion flavour in a different bag my name is Mickey Mouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
