Ooops

[Polly1958]

Ovens been on for nearly an hour and the meat's still sat on the side!

[sara3]

that'll be on the rare side then!

[4getmenot]

did you think when it said 'fresh' it may walk in itself?

[askyourgran]

What time do you reckon you'll be dining tonight then?

[Polly1958]

I don't think i'll be eating it anyway.It's belly pork with about 3 inches of fat on it!Cooking it the Jamie Oliver, I can never get my crackling crispy and used his recipe before, it was good,it didn't have so much fat on it then.

[askyourgran]

I got some spare ribs, I've put garlic, ginger a few chopped spring onions on and will roast gently coated with honey. I intended to put them on for tea with salad and quiche lorraine, but the OH has tempted me to go to our local fish and chip restaurant for our meal instead. I'm feeling a bit peckish now and he hasn't arrived home yet. The ribs are covered in the fridge now.

[Polly1958]

That sounds lovely.Enjoy your fisn 'n' chips.

[rowanwitch]

Slice halfway through the fat so the bit with skin comes off in a sheet cook it separately for double the scratchings gets much crisper this way....

[Polly1958]

Thanks rowanwitch,i'll try that.

[smurfchops]

Can we call that your first Senior Moment Polly ?

[Polly1958]

Definitely not my first smurfchops!

You just reminded me .I hadn't taken the lamb chops out. But should not take long as I have one of those defrosting trays.
