Watch out McDonalds
I've been addicted to cookin shows fer some time now and Discovery Travel and Living channel has been the fuel for this addiction. My personal fav is Jamie Oliver and be it "Puka Tuka" or "Oliver's Tales" I simply dun miss an episode. Despite my love fer cooking shows, there are programs which I absulutely abhor, mainly any show helmed by Martin Yan! His accent is so fuckin irritating but thats not the worse thing about his show, the honour belongs to how he counts along with every single slice he makes with that bloody knife of his. One more thing, if you notice carefully, he'll throw in ingredients impromptu jus cause he likes the look of things so I highly suspect certain dishes are inedible. Now you know the reason why he speaks so fast, he's hopin you wun be able to catch up and thus give up on takin notes and actually tryin out his recipe cause its really inedible...
Ok nuff bout Martin, dun want my appetite affected. More on Jamie, where one of the recent episodes saw him makin burgers fer him and his mate. Those burgers looked especially good and it really made me want to try out the recipe. Sooo after days of indecisiveness, I finally got down to actually makin em today!
Went down to cold storage and after blazing through the aisles like a seasoned pro, all the ingredients were in the basket. Headed to the cashier and whilst my mum did give me money to pay fer the stuff, I, being the nice guy that I'm *ahem coughed out the money from my own pocket. Fer the record, the bill came up to 70 bucks partly cause I went fer the most expensive option fer every single ingredient, heh. $8 on sea salt, when the economical choice would've set me back 35 cents.
Upon reaching home, I asked the maid to take out the blender and as fate would have it, it was no where to be found. How a blender disappears into thin air I have no idea, but my mum came to the rescue and gave me money to buy a new one. Yesh, headed out yet again to purchase a blender and had an encounter with a FUCKER(unfortunately I fergot to take down his license plate no., so that I can piss on his wheels if I ever see his car again), who die die also didn't wanna give way to me on the way back. Later, intentionally not lettin him into my lane causing him to miss his turnin, saw that revenge was sweet, Ahhhhhh.
A sign that you've been driving too often is when the sucurity guard lifts the barrier fer you when you havent even turned into the condo yet cause he recognises your car. Yes, I've been gettin ample practice.
After all that trouble, I could finally get down to makin those burgers and havin formed all the patties and leaving em in the fridge, I realised I fergot to add the ingredient at the very top of the list, sea salt. Hur hur, I really enjoyed mixing all the formed patties together jus so I could add salt and den reform em again. Fuckin fun I tell ya...........
The burgers turned out well enough but t'was a pity I didnt make fries from scratch cause I was too lazy to. Can't wait to dabble with my next recipe, "roasted sweet garlic, thyme and mascarpone risotto with toasted almonds and breadcrumbs". Sounds nice, no?
