I'm going to cook the dinner I planned to last night (beef with cashew nuts). I didn't realise I had to do the beef in bicarb overnight to make sure it was really tender, and once I cut it up I realised I hadn't bought enough 😔 So I ordered fish and chips and it was unfortunately the worst fish and chips I've ever had in Melbourne! However I cook tonight's dinner, it will not be anywhere near as bad as that!
Sorry about my food styling but I'd started eating 😆 The kids didn't like it much, and Mr P "did (his) best" eating with bung/absent teeth. It tastes awesome to me, but if everyone else in the house is lukewarm about it then that's a fail unfortunately ❎ I look forward to eating it at work and being praised by my colleagues, who seem to appreciate my cooking better than my family 😌
Edit: my MIL had a bit and she loves it and said it looks "pretty" with the colours 😀
That looks delicious!
Thankyou! I'm enjoying it very much for my lunch today.
bicarb overnight
ooh you'd get away with 30mins!
I thought similarly; one suggestion I saw said an hour, but Mr P insisted overnight 🙆🏼♀️
Velveting is absolutely worth it.
