Soda Jerk Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 I had Gnochi last night. Is that how spell it? I don't know. It's that weird potato pasta stuff anyway, in a tomatic and balsamic sauce. I thought I was going to explode. I'm pretty sure they soak up your stomach acids like a sponge, and expand, until what you just ate is coming back out of your ears. Proper nice though.

Le Stu Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Pad Thai Don't forget the crushed peanuts though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 That sounds fantastic and doesn't look particularly difficult to do!It is really simple and tastes awesome. Probably my favourite stir fry recipe. Get all the ingredients ready beforehand and then it only takes a couple of minutes to cook in a smoking hot wok. As Le Stu says remember the bashed/chopped peanuts at the end to add some crunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Asda used to do an amazing ready made pad thai, for some reason they stopped doing it, gutted. I investigated a recipe once and it seemed far more complicated than that, must try it out....Chi used to do an amazing pad thai....where I first had it...

Le Stu Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 All I can think about right now is Trader Joe's microwave Pad Thai and how it's several thousand miles away from me and how my hob is partly broken and I can't fit a wok on the working element because it's in the corner.

Fast Caz Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Hmm omn nom! The BBC website has some great recipes. Going to make the chilli with chocolate again tonight. It was great last time. This time round I'll use different cooking chocolate and not douse the mince with raggae raggae sauce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast Caz Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Well I got some chicken thighs last night ad marinated them with raggae sauce and diced jalapeos. Couldn't be bothered with any roast potatoes or anything like that so I just had chicken flavoured super noodles and I have to say it was a good meal. Maybe not the healthiest but I was chuffed.

Fast Caz Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Yeah it is one I will keep. Might give the chilli a miss and use the rest of the chicken but makemashed potato with spring onion and garlic. Maybe use some garlic in with the marinade aswell.Hungry now!!

Chris Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 To round off the weekend and feeling like I deserved a fat boost after Saturday's 10k, yesterday was pig roast for dinner Roast pork shoulder, with excellent crackling, accompanied by roast tatties and roasted carrots (both sprinkled with lots of fresh rosemary) and proper gravy made from reduced stock and the scrapings off the roasting tin.It was amazing. I was going to take pictures for this thread but I decided to eat everything instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
