I started the Ragu yesterday at dinner time and cooked it for 4 or so hours and then left it in the oven with lid off while it cooled then put it on the hob tonight to warm thorough really low for a couple of hours, the bone just slipped out the meat. I wonder if the beef haugh would be shin of beef? I asked him for shin and he had none but gave me that instead. Next time I'm in il find out. Your right about cheeks too tho. I'd forgot about them, and they are probably best of the lot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won’t look back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our local supermarket for some reason had a few bags of them and I decided to sell a kidney and buy a packet. They were shite. Worse still I had bigged them up to the wife and son who had never tasted Scottish crisps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah In water first then pan fried in some garlic butter to get a little crisp on them. I think I could have done with a little bit more flour to firm them up more perhaps allowed the potato to cool completely before shaping, they were delicious though and a good alternative to mash or pasta ( polenta was knocked back at first suggestion) 15 minutes ago, Venti said: al forno is 'oven cooked' Living in Italy I'm pretty sure he knows that. Its the Roman variation of gnocchi he's referring to, alla sorenttina gnocchi would also be baked In oven except in a tomato sauce Edited October 27, 2023 by Don Diego De la Vega 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 (edited) Had a Korean chicken burger and an order of Korean fried chicken (tossed in a gochujang sauce) for lunch, from Kimchi Cult, just off Byres Road at Chancellor Street. Was outstanding. Burger was perfect with a crispy coating and bit of heat from the sauce. Fried chicken was crispy and the sauce was spot on for me. Not too spicy but a nice flavour. Loads of sauce too. £18 (£9 each) so not the cheapest but I enjoyed it. Edited October 30, 2023 by jagfox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimchi cult was tremendous the only time intrude it. the guy had just opened as I was moving away from the West end so popped in to try, I had the exact same order as you, sat and listened to the owner about how he got into Korean food and his travels while eating my lunch. There seemed to be explosion of Korean food places opened since then but none have matched up to his kfc although el perro negro's sauce was close to being as tasty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Patterson Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Made a belter of a stew the other night. Couple of Beyond Burgers. Cut into chunks and fried in a bit of stock until they caramelise a bit. Then in the air fryer to firm up. Onion gravy with a load of McEwan's Export in it. Load of onions, carrots & parsnips. Wee dod of Marmite and some rosemary & thyme Lobbed it all in the slow cooker for a few hours. Tremendous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
