The first BBQ of the season. 2 hours of deep cleaning then fired up. I now feel complete.
Steak, fried potatoes and onions all on the griddle. Accompanied by Asian slaw.
OK, I still need to sort the BBQ area but I have a cunning plan. I have a local tradey who is going help me build a covered area so that I can utilise the Weber and pizza oven all year round.
WTF is Edward VII doing at your house?

Japanese/Chinese takeaway, a mixed banquet, Sushi, panko prawns, some very good spring roll type things, all kinds of stuff. Surprisingly good, from a takeaway I’d always suspected was a money laundering operation…
No fucking tofu in sight, fermented or otherwise. 
Forgot how pungent wasabi is, like mustard on steroids…

I’ll check it out anyway but I hate mushrooms. Unless it psilocybe mushrooms and even then I would make a brew!

Meant to be doing beef rendang tomoz, but can’t for the life of me think where I’m going to get galangal, tamarind pulp and kaffir lime leaves in Wigan on a Sunday… 
Ask @NAM, his wife just ‘Orders’ stuff. I’m sure he could get it delivered for you

Proper lasagne made with a 12 hour ragu. Served with garlic bread and a simple lettuce, cucumber and spring onion salad.

Got everything for the Redang except the kaffir lime leaves, so just used a lime instead.
Cooking away, smells great. Was a lot of pissing about though, grating coconut ffs.
