trust you,ahem, defrosted & cooked 'em first rock!!Block of frozen squid that was my dinner a few months back...
Hello, Harry. Long time no see.
Thought I'd contribute and help resurrect this thread. I LOVE to see member food photos!
Speaking of shellfish....I grilled some beautiful prawns recently. Marinated in a little olive oil, chopped garlic, lemon juice, and cracked black pepper.
Breaded and baked Alaskan cod and salad.
OMG!! now those are what you call prawns cheryl "how would you like your prawns madam?" "just pull out the harpoons & send 'em over!!" all looks fabulous & super tasty as always hun!see you're still eating watermelon...i'm seriously thinking of buying stocks in your watermelon company...gotta say i'm hooked on the stuff myself..very good for you apparently.Mexican style fiesta. Chicken enchiladas, refried beans and Spanish rice.
got to try it cj.i get the the small ones from tesco if i'm using them in pasta or stuffing them(oooh errr missus!!)and the big boys from my local chinese supermarket for frying or stewing.deelish & cheap as chips.you've either got to flash them on high heat or long slow cook them.anything in between & you've got yourself a new spare tyre for the car!!here's some i prepared earlier as they say-ground pork stuffed squidRocklobster, I have never had squid before. I would be willing to try it, though.
wayyyyyyyy too modest bunny....firstly the photo is fine & the food looks great.secondly,sometimes only a burger will do & your's looks & sounds screen lickylicious!!Just wanted to pop in and show Harry I'm "on board" with the "resurrection" this is a photo from this summer, but it was a really tasty burger with grilled onions served with a yummy macaroni salad.

Afraid my photos are no match for Cheryl's....positively professional looking!
And presumably, by the time you'd photographed it and then got round to sitting down to eat it, it was cold.cooked this tonight:vietnamese beef with rice noodle,sour green mango,peanut,pomegranate & chilli salad
well good for youAnd presumably, by the time you'd photographed it and then got round to sitting down to eat it, it was cold.
I'm sorry but have little patience with all this nonsense of decoratively plating up food. I don't want it to look a mess but there is a world of difference between a neat serving and "artistic plating". If a dish is described on the menu as having a sauce I don't want merely a couple of drips or a paint brush streak of said sauce decorating the plate and if it's supposed to be accompanied by mange-tout, I expect more than two pods balanced on top of a piled up collection of food. And I particularly don't like it if they've spent so much time making the food look pretty that it's cold - or worse still has been microwaved to reheat it.
Rant over.
Squidsicles....trust you,ahem, defrosted & cooked 'em first rock!!
ah ha!!Squidsicles....
That photo was taken the minute after I popped them out of the box into the sink. That was the bottom of the block.
