The cooking thread

Lamb roast in the smoker yesterday.

Herb salt rub with some soy sauce over the top.
2hrs uncovered, 5hrs wrapped in baking paper, then butchers paper. Cooked around 90-110 degrees.

Ok this one’s left of centre. I work in a youth justice facility. Juvie.
And I didn’t cook it but it’s worth a mention.
Anyway the boys in my unit get vanilla ice cream. I notice that one of the lads ) a Thai/Karen) lad is eating light brown ice cream.
‘What the fuck is that’ I ask.
‘Taste it’ is the response. Nope. Fuck that.
He says its ice cream mixed with Soy sauce. I say that sounds fucking disgusting. Noooo. He says. Try it. So it tried it. And fuck me. It was amazing. That was some gourmet shiiiit! If I walked into a swanky ice cream shop on Brunswick st and got this I’d be pretty happy.
The trick is a very very minimal amount of soy sauce. It tastes like salted caramel.

Go on. Give it a go.

I could imagine that combo working, but yeah getting the balance right would be key!

Reminds me of an ice cream shop in the middle of Adelaide where my HPV teamies would go after the main post-race pub dinner. They'd have a lot of the usual and not too unusual stuff, but occasionally produce some real "WTF?" stuff. Their blue cheese & fig ice cream was one of those "da phuq?" concoctions, but unexpectedly delicious.

I could see that being quite delicious actually.
 
Bought 2 bachelors handbags last night, one the standard chicken variety and another in less seen pork version for a quick dinner last night, way too much for 3 people but that was plan.
Currently all the leftovers have been diced, some rice has been boiled now chilling in the fridge, shortly I fry up some onions with a few whisked eggs, add some peas and corn all in the wok, add said meat & rice then it’s fried rice time. If I had worked from home today I’d have cooked the rice earlier, as it always seems to fry up a bit better when it’s been chilled for a few hours.
If I remember and if I can access the forum 🙄, I might try to get some photos, if I haven’t already eaten it.
 
For home-made fried rice in a hurry, those microwave rice packets make rice that is surprisingly effective for fried rice. I still cook it per the usual instructions, then let it steam off on a tray while I prep/cook the rest of the stuff for the fried rice then chuck it all together. Comes up pretty good.

[EDIT: Gotta have some Chinese sausage and chopped up egg in fried rice IMO]
