I decided not to have lamb sandwiches. Instead I had it rechauffee with peppery tomato sauce and mash.

I've just cooked and eaten a hearty pilaff of brown rice with black beans and tomato puree.

Yes, black beans (what they call crabeyes in the West Indies I think) have started appearing in the shops quite bit at the mo’.

by Fangirl Three Thu Aug 13, 2020 5:51 pm

Also pinto beans. I think both may be connected to the upsetting lack of kidney beans on the shelves.

I made a sort of pilaff with fried peppers, almonds and that mild green pepper tabasco sauce, and brown rice.

It was OK, but I think peppers are a bit too watery for this application. However well I fry them the texture is always disappointing.

I think that, at some point, I may try to make crisps in my microwave.

How do you intend going about it?

Is there some Youtube cheat doing the rounds?

Apparently, you just cut the potato into thin slices, put them in water for half an hour, dry them out on kitchen paper, brush cooking oil on them, put them in the microwave, and then take them out when they're done.

Then you sprinkle them with whatever flavouring you want them to have.

I don't currently have a slicer. Colbert

I have water and a microwave. box

My gas cooker's on the brink of death and I can't afford a new one. Nor do I really have need of such a large cooking implement. So, I'm thinking of getting a toaster oven.

I am currently researching them.

I need one that can accommodate a 10" pizza, as that's what my local Heron sells.

Equipment Review: Toaster Ovens. Excited

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Nov 10, 2020 6:14 pm

I'm definitely not getting one that costs over $200. Colbert
