Ok. Its lunchtime and you are a little hungry, what would you make for yourself?

When I was wee I used to eat sugar sandwiches, or peas in a cup  (A cup of mushy peas with butter and vinegar over them).
Title: Re: Quick tasty meals
Post by: ONeill on August 11, 2009, 05:09:50 PM
Yes, I remember sugar sandwiches.

I had a brother who would eat his annual sandwich - he'd raid the cupboards and put a bit of everything there into it - lentils, sugar, salt, rice, ham, egg, beetroot, salad cream......

He's now a ladyboy in Kildress.

Some pubs only do the plastic bottles...i take it they must be cheaper than the smaller glass bottles in wholesalers.

I might head down to makro to buy a few bottles, cheers.

Some of you are ripping it with the quickness of these meals, I think Fred is talking instant here...

If I needed something instant I normally just have toast with loads marmalade and a glass of milk.

Scrambled egg is good for a quick fix also.
Title: Re: Quick tasty meals
Post by: full back on August 11, 2009, 05:50:52 PM
Agree ONL,
Some of these arent quick at all
Best IMHO is poached eggs & toast - less than 3 mins

Gordon Ramsay-esque there HWAH.

What would you specify as quick Nailed On?

If you have 5 minutes or so, its hard to beat a few poached eggs with some wheaten bread.
If you have 10 minutes or so, pasta with bacon and some of the stir in sauces is the way to go.

Take some chicken and pour red sauce on.  Distribute sauce evenly  with an upside down spoon taking care not to leave any extra red sauce on the spoon.  Turn spoon 180 degrees  and eat chicken with spoon.  Named red chicken by the perma drunk student who created it.

That's the best one.  - It's making me crave a crisp sandwich.


What's also really nice, I've been eating a lot of lately - those baguettes you bake in the oven yourself, only takes 5-10 minutes to bake, yum with a ham tomotoe and cheese.

I'm fascinated with this sugar sandwich idea which seems to have been prevalent in the oul daze- how much sugar are we talking here?  Say for 2 white medium slices would you talking 3/4 tablespoons or wha?  More sugar than that would send a kid haywire surely.

For a quick feed- fried egg and 2 slices of bacon on white bread with a lock of red sauce
Title: Re: Quick tasty meals

Twas just a light covering of sugar over the butter on both sides.

I'm on a real Humous kick at the moment.  Handy as frig to make if you have a blender and lovely with baked crisps, pitta bread or naan bread.
Plain or mixed with some jalapenos for a bit of a kick

cheap as hell too

Not the healthiest but quick and OK for a wee treat now and again....sounds boggin to but dont knock it till you've tried it.


Wee knob of butter in a saucepan, whack in a tin of beans, large dollop of brown sauce, two or three slices of freshly cut cooked ham finely chopped and finally a handful of mature grated cheddar. Put it all together in the saucepan.......heat until the cheese is melted, mix well and dump most of it onto a couple of slices of hot buttered nutty crust or if thats not available a soda...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

f**king animals in Down!

Fellas I used to live with in Belfast had some strange ones. Pasta with tuna and salad cream was one and another was a Fray Bentos mince pie cooked in the oven. When it was cooked take the pastry lid off and pour over a tin of beans before putting the lid back on!

I'm partial to an auld chili chicken wrap at the minute with lettuce, chicken, mayo, tomato and some chili sauce. Tasty. In a real hurry a crisp piece.

Peel a full onion and put it in the water with super noodles(mild curry preferably).

Cook

When the super noodles are cooked your onion will also be cooked with the flavor of the super noodles...
