Can't say I've ever noticed a proper chippy that's run by Chinese-English. Seems to be a bit of a wild assumption. It's just the norm, nothing to do with who's running the place. I’ve seen a fair few to be fair. Oh, and whilst arguing - I’ve not been impressed by Fish and Chips in Oz. When I visited it was with a mate from Melbourne going back after years away who was all excited for it and we got what he called shark and some weird shit that I think was called something similar to dim sum but wasn’t - some deap fried abomination. |

I grew up with half and half with curry sauce from the Chinese too as the standard post pub snack. I miss those days of being a skinny fuck and yet having that most night after a load of pints. Since moving back up north last year I’ve started the fish and chips and curry sauce and it’s great. I got suckered in as the English chippies now do loads of different ones - Irish, English, Chinese and another that I forget. Irish curry sauce?...is it potato soup? |

Good god some of the comments about fish and chips in here are making me feel deeply nationalistic.

Ireland fast food deserves to be heralded just for Abrakebebra. The food is shite (or was when I last went many years ago) but what a name.

Ribs.
Dry rub on, they're getting a braise in cider+the rub then making my own bbq sauce with the liquor, ketchup, maple syrup and soy sauce which goes on to caramelise them in the oven.

Sounds awesome. Takeaway for me tonight but I’m making a lamb stock today and using it to slow cook lamb leg in the slow cooker for tomorrow’s dinner. I’m quite excited so hopefully o don’t make a cnt of it. |

I have a dinner dilemma. Do I
* reheat the tasty tri-tip and taters leftovers that are on their last day
Or
* grill up the thick ny strip that is singing at me every time I open the fridge door

ALSO share your steak cooking techniques and it’ll probably sway me. I almost always sous vide and then finish on a raging hot salted pan. Perfect mid-rare every time.

Kenji's reverse sear method ftw. Gets rid of more surface moisture than a sous vide would, so a slightly better crust.
Goddamnit. Now I want a steak. I'm working today so Tesco finest pizza in the oven and a well needed beer!

Lunch is already taken care of, there’s a turkey and brie baguette that I’m considering eating now at 10am.

I'm fussy with steak these days. Needs to be a piece at least 1kg and 2 inch thick, has to be reverse seared on the bbq. Anything else and bin it.
I am being overly dramatic but salt and pepper on 15 to 30 mins before cooking and that is my preferred way to cook one. You can do it indoors in a pan and oven too if you must.

Shouldn't salt go on either hours before or after cooking? |

Ma-La Duck That celery can wank itself into the nearest non Milky Way galaxy along with all other celery that is not in celery salt. Looks great otherwise and Ma La is awesome |

Looks great otherwise and Ma La is awesome I’m usually a wee bit meh with celery but it was lovely in that dish. What did poor wee celery do to danno? It's excessively crunchy, sprays itself into your mouth as you bite, the strings are horrid and the overall flavour is redolent of piss. As a stock veg, or celery salt it's fine. For actual consumption naw. No. Never. Not ever. |

If you snap the ends of celery you can get rid of most of the stringy bits. I bloody love the stuff. Amazing raw with a little bit of salt.
