WHAT THE............?!?

If you are going to parboil something then surely you chop/slice/whatever it first?

no need for any parboiling. grate, squeeze, fry

no, not if you're frying, but mandolining or finely slicing parboiled spuds ain't going to work is it?

Wrongness of the first order I'm afraid. Tsk.

So you never cut or slice anything before parboiling? How do you make yer roasties?

Parboiling MANDOLINED spuds? Would that not result in an equally sticky unworkable mess?!

different to bigger roasties

Shouldn't do if you do it for a couple of mins. But tbf I wouldn't parboil them if I'd mandolined em, they're thin enough to roast/bake/fry without it - but I would do that rather than parboil then mandoline

 

[mrsfran]

I am making goulash

I love the fact that I can now cook again, I really missed it.

Hehehe You know, I bloody well AGONISED over whether to parboil or not on Sunday. I am going to try again and not parboil this time.

Friggin mandolin's really scary to use, for a clumsy twat like me

My dad took the end of his finger off with one just before Christmas.
My mum took him to the hospital when the electrical tape he had stuck over the end had failed to stem the flow of blood

Home-made chicken korma, Uncle Ben's rice, and I'll get a naan, chutneys, poppadoms and maybe another side dish from the indian takeaway round the corner.

Not sure what to have tonight...something snacky as tother half is off out to rehearsal

Maybe poached eggs on cheese on toast. Did have a fuckton of eggs and cheese yesterday though. Hmmm...

I was thinking about beans and cheese on homemade (bread) toast or pea, ham and cheese omelet on the same but after seeing the rosti recipe I may change my mind....

slow cooked chinese beef (that I slow cooked a week or so ago and took out of the freezer this morning), rice and stir fried cabbage with garlic.
