Dusted the beef chunks in seasoned gf flour rather than the beurre manie. Was immense. The meat was still in chunks but soft and falling apart. My kids loved it. Put a wee put more liquid/tomato in so it was a bit more of a ragu. First night with mashed tatties. Second with the macaroni. And I ditched the olives. Looks nice will try it. Would normal flour do in place of gf flour and did you use a slow cooker /oven instead of the hob and if so what temperature ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Creuset pot in the oven after the first hour on the stove top to reduce liquid a bit. Was still fairly liquidy at this point though. You can always reduce it later but I didn’t need to as it turn red into a nice gravy sauce after 5 hours in the oven about 160. Did a stir and check every hour. The secret is using beef shin. Only trim the outside sinew. The internal connective tissue melts to make the gravy. It’s pretty foolproof but comes out like a masterpiece.

Tiny Tim Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 I’m going to risk a bit of flack here but anybody tried HelloFresh? I scoffed at the idea but brother in law uses it and he sent us a code so we tried it for a few days. Every one a winner. Won’t continue with it because normal price is a bit steep but for anybody that spends a bit of cash on takeaways and wants to try some easy cooking it’s no bad.

Dave78 Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Bought an 130 euro Italian pizza oven at the start of lockdown. Been trial and error on the dough. My magnus opus (so far).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have never tried it but I imagine it is popular with folk with busy lives and a decent income. Its like the kind of thing you would see on Dragons Den, aiming to capture a niche market . Like you, I would maybe give it a try , but the prices would be too steep to use on a regular basis. Even M&S is a treat to me 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Och, people are usually much nicer in person, dont be too harsh. I dont think we can invite Killaefaetheferry into the competition as he is too experienced a cook. He has however been an integral part of this thread so maybe he could be the taxi driver . 🚕 Big Ramy could be good fun with his bagpipes , and his inclusion means I may not end up in last place. He lives in Canada right enough , that might be a bit too far a drive for Killae, plus I doubt my Entertainment in Isolation budget could afford the petrol cost . Maybe Ramy could swim across those shark infested waters instead 🤔 If he agrees we may have to edit out him browning his meat in case there are any children watching. Piak , Dave and Tiny Tim are also too far away . Are there no cooks left in Scotland ??? That said, I am taking their word for it. Every one of them could be living at the end of my road . This whole messageboard could be The Tidy Show, like the Truman Show. I might sail down the Clyde tonight to test it. So. What about Lairdy, he’s a good guy. I am pretty sure we could sign him up if we bung him a few Begonias for Mrs Lairdy. Daviebee can make a good Thai Curry and we could bring Fringo along for the jokes. I dont know about you but I think this could take off. And better still, we could premier the video on my Entertainment in Isolation thread. Any TAMB cameramen or women out there ???
