She has a version of feijoada that uses tinned mandarins as a replacement for the oranges that, er, are not used in the traditional recipe.

(Sliced fresh oranges can be served on the side, which is not the same thing at all as dumping a tin of mandarins into a pork and bean stew #JackVsBrazil)

She also has a recipe for "Roman" pasta, with mandarins, yogurt, basil and parsley...

hooefully she does something not completely tit as Ifeel sorry for her followers when they replicate the slop.

mandarin tarte Tatin could be alright
Sugar and butter and some mandarin juice to make a caramel
Place the mandarins nicely (don’t just bung)
Pre-bought puff pastry.

I might actually make this at the weekend to see if it works.

My money’s on a manadarin cheesecake, possibly purchased from Iceland with a tin of Del Monte on top for authenticity

ah, yes, what allegra was promoting from the cluttered kitchen this morning

and didn't someone say fred was up himself upthread? him and george clarke being horrible irl has made me sad 😔

to keep on topic, I keep thinking I'm getting grey hairs, but on closer inspection, I'm not, it's just the way my hair lies and the light catching it. many chin hairs tho
 
Fraus... a food question since I don’t know any experts.

I made carbonara tonight and have loads left. I’ve refrigerated it. Don’t want to poison myself but do you reckon I could flatten it and fry it in a pan tomorrow like a hash brown shape for lunch and it won’t kill me?
otherwise I will just have it chilled but I thought that would be nice but not sure about the egg factor in there if reheating.

Problem was that those in charge didn't clamp down on this sort of thing, too - at my school you'd get a real bollocking for swearing but I honestly remember a kid using the word 'fa--ot' in a classroom and our teacher just laughed it off. I was born in 87 so this was probably towards the end of the nineties/early 2000s.

I think things are a lot better today in terms of prejudice in schools, thank God.

Please don't triangulate me, but the school I work in has a zero tolerance policy on anything like this

Readers, I feel honour bound to tell you that I have just found a recipe in Veganish which includes tinned prunes. In a SOUP.

I also saw a picture of a smoky vegan cheese sauce from way back on her Instagram that she said she had been perfecting and had eaten 2.5 batches in a week and the picture was a monumental tease. I rushed to see what was the elusive method and flavours that she worked so hard to find. It’s a roux with shop bought smoked vegan cheese slices.

Hang on, HANG ON, am I wrong in thinking a roux is butter, flour and milk? Is she adding vegan cheese to a non-vegan recipe like she did with the vegan cheese egg?

It will be fine, Italians make a fritata type thing using left over cooked pasta, pop it in the frying pan and then add the eggs, cook slowly

:sick: Whats this weird obsession she has with adding tunned fruit to everything?
It reminds me when i went through a phase of only eating food if it had strawberry yogurt poured all over it?
Edit to add i was 3 years old at the time!
For someone whose whole life revolves around food she doesn't seem to have a very well developed palate or taste buds!!

Have only just come across her liver and sultana casserole (why did i google?) i'm feeling more than a little nauseous right now!

She should bring out a diet book?
Recipes to put you off eating!!
