I had Oysters for the first time in my life a couple of weeks ago, really fresh, locally landed ones, I ordered a 2nd helping, much to the annoyance of Mrs Bleep. For my 50th I also tried Razor Clams, they are amazingly good, considering you can pick them up on the beach for free.
Mussels grom on tghe rocks down here and if you so wish (& I do), you can harvest them at low tide (although sometimes you have to fight the Gulls for them.

I'm making curry goat at the weekend, something I've always loved to eat but never cooked. There are loads of recipes on t'internet for it but they differ massively - has anyone got a definitive version that works well?

I tried one. It might have been one attributed to Levy Roots, it takes bloody ages though. http://uktv.co.uk/fo...cipe/aid/636225 oh and the timings don't add up - cook time 2 1/2 hrs, but recipe says 45m + 45m + 45m + 2hrs :rolleyes:

This might be ok http://www.channel4....and-peas-recipe haven't tried it though so dunno if these times add up

Nice one Andy, ta very much.

Start early, and don't get impatient like I did. Otherwise it's a bit chewy. Try the channel 4 one, no niche ingredients like all-spice berries - which simply don't exist in space and time.

And then you can tell me how it went.

Something like Curry Goat would probably benefit from being cooked the day before, refrigerated and re-heated the next day.

Got a slow cooker? Pretty cheap, as they are very simple things, but give superb results without needing regular attention. I did slow-roasted lamb with Moroccan spices on Sunday, and it was out of this world. You can, if you like, finish the meat on the barbecue to give it a bit of smoke. It was beef and black olives in Theakston's Old Peculier the previous time I used it, which was very intense and delicious.

Now i've found those I will be attempting the channel 4 recipe...

I don't have a slow cooker but I'll try and borrow one, as it seems the best way of tenderising the meat and retaining the sauce.

Ta folks.

Slow cookers are also good for spare ribs/back ribs. Start them off with a dry rub of spices and leave for an hour, then into the cooker for several hours. Finally, take 'em out, slather with barbecue sauce and finish in a regular oven (or on the BBQ) for about 20 minutes, just to get everything hot and sticky (ooh!). The meat just falls off the bones.

It's a good job I just had a peice of some cake randomly brought in by a co-worker. Somehow 2 slices of bread and 1/2 tin of tomatoes didn't quite cut it.

I can't remember what the conclusion was and I've no time to search this thread or any other but if I had a deep fat fryer, and I wanted to have, for example, homemade onion bhajis and homemade doughnuts for tea, both in veg oil, could I do one after the other? Or would the oil become tainted by flavour? And secondly, if I wanted them two days in a row, is the current oil ok?
