What did we all have for lunch?

[Burney]

You might credit a chap.

Of course! You're quite right! wd Nigel Slater.

Charmed, I'm sure :sniff:

The szechuan pepper was my twist.

[Burney]

Yes, there's a sort of... piazza there, all post-apocalyptic-looking. It was odd to realise that, having lived within 5 miles or so of the place since 1976, I had never set foot there before.

I know where you mean. When it's empty, you can imagine Alex and his droogs stalking across it prior to performing a bit of ultra violence on you.

You should have popped into The Lullingstone Castle for a swift half.*


*N.B. This is a joke. No-one reading this should ever go into The Lullingstone Castle. Should you do so, Burney Enterprises accepts no responsibility for your well-being.

Charmed, I'm sure :sniff:

The szechuan pepper was my twist.

I know. And a splendid twist it is. I refined it slightly with the addition of drumsticks and also the business of cooking it for a good long time at a high heat to counteract the liquid produced and create the desired stickiness.

All in all, though, a splendid recipe.

I haven't done it for ages, actually. I've been all about the buffalo wings recently. Franks Hot Sauce has me under its spell.

I've ended up with some veal mince needing a home. I don't fancy pasta or cottage pie... can't get my head around veal burgers. I wonder if there's a beef kofta thing going on anywhere.

Fry it up with onions, garlic and ginger paste, green chilli, a teaspoon each of turmeric, coriander, cumin and chilli powder if you haven't got any green chilli in. Add half a cup of water, cover and eat it with flatbread. You will be happy.

Ideally, you'd do this with lamb, of course, but it'll still be nice.


I went onto the buffalo wings for a bit, but have gone back. I prefer the lemon and pepper jobs.

Will do something like that.

[Burney]

Will do something like that.

You might want to up the chilli a bit.

I've got some bird's eyes keen to be used up.

Yeah, that came across a bit Ed Gein-y.
