Guest guest Posted March 14, 2005 Report Posted March 14, 2005 Simon, I get my fresh vegetable curries from Asda (patting my back pocket). I also like their fresh tuna steaks, nicer looking than Tesco's. I marinade them in 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, some mediterran spices (from Tesco's finest range)and crushed garlic for 40 minutes while I grill (all sliced) 1 fennel bulb, 2 red peppers, and 2 courgettes (zuchinni for my American brethren and the peppers are bell peppers)that were sprinkled with olive oil. I panfry the steaks in the final minutes and it makes a beautiful meal.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2005 Report Posted March 14, 2005 LOL! I guess it must be a really long time... btw, isn't traditional American food what the Pilgrim Father's introduced and wern't they British? So isn't this a case of pots & kettles? These days, British cuisine is so cosmopolitan, like the rest of our society. Asian, European, South American, Caribbean, all are blending together to form a very ecclectic mix. Saying that, I'm still partial to black pudding, homemade sausages and a nice steak & kidney pie from time to time ....and I wouldn't get any of the Brits here started on beer... having sampled what passes for beer over on this side of the pond... yuk! > I'll admit that it has been a long time since I was in the UK, but I remember that the food there was pretty dismal. If anyone had told me that there was a law against using any seasonings except salt and pepper--particularly the former--I would have been inclined to believe it. It seemed that a British cook's first instinct for preparing anything was to either boil it or fry it. > > Not to mention WARM BEER. Quote

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 Arghhh....

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 And then there's Spotted Dick. How anyone would want to eat something called that I don't know. It sounds like a symptom of an STD. Quote
