Ooohhh La La....It's MasterChef! Options

[Bluerain]

Better tonight, but that bald chap with the goatee seemed a bit intense.

Big chap like that, crying. It's not right is it? But whisky crumble is.

He looked scarily like Ming the Merciless, until he started crying that is, then he looked like a big girl's blouse. Good cook though, could go all the way.

There was far too much couscous being bandied about in last nights early round for my liking? I thought Ming the Merciless (played by Charles Middleton I believe in the fillum?) was by far the better chef and a contender to our Dennices furry crown.

Just had a sausage and butter bean casserole prepared by Rainy and I'll tell you what siblings, nobody on MasterChef is beating that shit, not even Ming?

I've got organic pasta with a roasted peppers/red onion combo accompaniament mixed in with a soupcon of green pesto for my tea. But it doesn't end there, no, because i've been to the goats cheese purchasery store and bought me some of the finest goat curd this side of St brelade's bay and I've only gone and sliced it thinly and placed it atop of the pasta/peppers/red onion/pesto quad-combo and grilled it for five minutes until extra bubbly..


Yes my friend, shit was made to be beaten..

[davekermito]

I've just had a deliberation of spiced lamb, with a myxmatosis of spicy chilli infused salsa, topped with a troubadour of seasonal salad all served in an Eastern Mediterrenean unlevened bread.

The wife is at the in-laws.

The shit to be beaten will be laid in a few minutes. Hurrah.

[lobster]

That's good Panj, that's very good. Let me elaborate a little more of the delights that Bluerain has just prepared and plated up in the alotted 50 minutes from scratch...The Casserole was infused with the wonderful flavours of dijon mustard, tomato passata, brandy, red wine, pancetta and finished with fresh thyme out of our own herb patch! Shit not beaten yet bonnie lad I am afraid!

[Panja]

Let's be honest for a minute here, lads, eh? A sausage stew and a kebab is not beating organic pasta/peppers/red onion/goats cheese is it? even if we do have the mediterranean away goal rule..

I'm about to preparedessert. Mediterranean fruits with a blackberry jus served in a bowl with a drizzle of plain yoghurt worn atop as a doffed cap..

Extra time and penalties not included..

[davekermito]

You can get Muller Fruit Corners in Jersey then?

Be off with you.

[Panja]

You can get Muller Fruit Corners in Jersey then?

Pretty much.

I was quite impressed with the standards of cooking by last night's three contestants at the Santori restaurant and bar (book early to avoid disappointment, group discounts available on request). Cooking scallops may look simple enough but to get them just right and thus avoid getting that flowery tatste often associated with overcooked shelled fruit de mar isn't easy..

But..

The skinny black girl's steaks looked magnificent didn't they? Cooked to perfection and displayed so beeyowtifully as to make this semi-vegetarian's mouth salivate with anticipatory delight..

[Bluerain]

A sausage stew

That 'sausage stew' was a cassoulet comparable with anything you might find in the finest establishments in Toulouse mate, your cheese and crackers/muller corner combo just doesn't come within a country kilometre!

Haven't seen last night's episode yet but it is safely stored on Sky+ so we have the delights of a full hour and a half of Masterchef this evening. Heaven!

[Panja]

You leave my cheese and crackers/muller corner combo delight out of this, young lady. I'l have you know my appreciative stomach has got three michelin tyres around it..

To cook those steaks to order and to perfection every time was a true show of class.

Yes but her choice to serve pork with melon in the final cook off was the stuff of a madmans dreams.

I still think the brummie girl (Denise?) is a wafer thin biscuit ahead of the rest though.

Twasn't pork she was cooking, Suss, twas rabbit.

I can see why your mind would drift off to the word pork though, watching a woman handling raw meat an' all..

I quite like the idea of a pork sword and melons combo meself.
