Possibly, maybe, one day...
All my eggs come from the chickens on the farm, super tasty, proper shells that actually require some force to crack, properly yellow yolks, etc. I don't think any of the farmers around here have any quails, but I could ask around, someone will probably have some somewhere and if not the question may prompt a little investment!

When you're eating breakfast at 1pm because you had beers the night before... this breakfast roll is the best way in my book:
Mushrooms fried in butter with chipotle, top quality smoked bacon - oven baked to perfection, a fried egg - yolk still runny and the edges slightly crispy, and HP Sauce on a lightly toasted oven bottom muffin
Oh. my. god.

Oh my... a friend brought me a chilli plant, laden with chillies and neglected to warn me about the heat until I was half way through cooking this chicken & cashew nuts dish, I'd already added half a dozen dried Árbol chilies and a Bhut Jolokia - eek!!
Sweating, eyes watering and mouth tingling almost but not quite to the point of pain, and a myriad of flavours from the staged cooking process - 9/10!

Thank you
I am particularly pleased with this one, especially as Thai food is not really something I do very often or feel particularly confident with, definitely going to do more though. I had a bit of a realisation last night about how to make the hot, spicy, sweet and sour flavours work together and how to create those sticky sauces that coat the meat and veg - it's actually really simple once it clicks, but like a lot of things it's only easy once you know how. This one involved 8 distinct stages in the cooking process, all simple in their own right, but overall the result is very complex. Good stuff.

Had another Horse Mushroom left over from last night which needed eating today, so for lunch I prepared:
A bed of cavolo nero dabbed with hummus and drizzled with olive oil...
Then stuffed the mushroom with garlic, red onion, thyme, cheese - topped it off with panko breadcrumbs and za'atar and baked it in the oven until it melted... utterly delicious!!

I know, I know, I spend far too much time in the kitchen, but we have to eat and I believe that food is one of the greatest pleasures in life... so why not make the most of it if the desire is there? It can be a hobby as much as any other right?
Beef truffle with red onion and mozzarella, served with hand cut chips cooked in the air fryer in vegetable oil but finished off with half a teaspoon of beef dripping for extra crispiness, and peas! I love peas!! Give peas a chance!!!

I like pizza a lot.
Got bored in lock down so built a pizza oven. 90 mins to heat to approx 600 c. Cooks pizza in 90 seconds.
Next day we usually slap in a leg of lamb or pork joint (I keep sheep and pigs on my small holding) to slow cook for many hours.
Mutton pie. Shoulder slow cooked for 4 hours on bed of onions and bottle of wine. Falls off the bone. Boss made the pastry.....

Very nice. A serious brick-oven like that would be nice to have. I'm jealous!

Thanks.
I now consider them essential and when I leave this little slice of paradise I will build another.
We grow a lot of peppers and tomatoes etc and roasted in the oven they just taste amazing.
I understand there are some very good gas pizza ovens that sit on a countertop that get very good reviews and don't require such construction.
Building a smoker next as we love smoked meats and cheese.

Yeah, but it just wouldn't be the same.
For example, I love the convenience of my George Forman grill in the kitchen. I use it all the time. However, it in no way comes even close to a real charcoal and/or wood grill.

Awesome - if I lived anywhere where 'outside living' were possible for more than a couple of days (okay it's usually a few weeks) a year I would do the same! One of my neighbours did this through lockdown too, and I think I have seen them use it twice this year? It's just too damn cold and windy here!
In a completely different vein to pizza, here's a feta and olive salad
