as i said yonks ago when i started this thread:
"okey dokey this is guilty pleasures "all grown up" 3D the sequel.no no no vicar,nothing for you to worry about!!.you know what? sometimes life is too short for peeling,chopping,mixing & marinading.sometimes i just don't have the time.sometimes there is stuff out there that i think "y'know what 'arry the ingredients are exactly what i would make that with & it probably tastes just as good as mine so why make it yourself(or should that be myself?)"

I have never seen those little cubes of crushed garlic and red pepper! :ohmy: I would for sure buy some and keep on hand in the freezer - will have to look for them. :)

try wallmart chezza.asda sell them over hear & asda are part of "the wallmart family" worth a try mate!.40 calibre has them in his freezer so they must be available your side of the pond hun.

Where did you get those dry rot cubey thingies from pray tell ?
tesco! is there anywhere else? actually there is,sainsbury's & asda sell them too.last time i looked tesco had them on offer @ 50 shiny pennies a pop.which probably means not many peeps buy them,which in turn means they may be discontinued soon.time to fill ya boots(and freezer)methinks queenie!!you can get the cock soup there too:ermm:!

The ginger and garlic pastes that I have found were full of yucky chemicals. I'd rather whiz up a batch in my Magic Bullet and freeze what I don't need right away.

i know tax & half the time the actual veg it's meant to be is right down the bottom of the ingredients list.i wouldn't buy them either mate.the dorot's only have a bit of soybean oil,lemon juice & salt added,depending on which you buy.i guess they put those in to help them freeze/hold their colour well?

I noticed that the Dorot's only had food (and salt). But, even that one would be a no-go for me. I'm not supposed to have any soy that isn't fermented. It's startling how much food has soy oil.
