AFCON Final tonight - anyone watching?

[RIP]

Sitting with 3 Nigerian mates. Enough food to feed a whole team. Brought my green and white flag.

All Cote D'Ivore then suddenly Nigeria score with an imperious header.

Might buy a Nigeria strip - excellent style.

Ivory Coast still attacking. Squeaky bum time trying to hang onto a 1-0.

[hibsbollah]

My relatives live in Abidjan, vive les elefins! Hardly surprising Oshimen is wearing a mask , this has been one way traffic.

[andrew70]

Yes, not been exhilarating but good nonetheless.

Nigeria fortunate to be 1 up.

Enjoy your night.

[LunasBoots]

Yes, hope Nigeria win it.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

If ivory Coast win it they're bordering on Portugal levels of major tournament wins with how jammy they've been

[gaz1875]

Great header for the goal. Interesting Stat mentioned, 5th Ivory Coast final and first goal.

[Hibeesdaft16]

Mon the Super Eagles! They have an amazing defence, just keep disciplined at the title of Champions are hopefully theirs again. :aok:

[hibsbollah]

Some of the goals of the tournament have been a bit special!

[ErinGoBraghHFC]

Sat here smashing through a six pack of snowballs, the football is a sideshow to my dessert this evening. Got profiteroles in the fridge as well, may come in handy.

What a moment for Haller

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

One?

I meant in the manner, sorry not very clear.

Maybe even Greece levels this. Madness

[hibsbollah]

Oh that’s tremendous.
2-1 CIV.

[Hibeesdaft16]

Very well deserved if it stays this way.

Joe Aribo to save the day :greengrin

[Jim44]

Haller …… great striker’s opportunistic goal.

[Jim44]

Ivory Coast ……. African Champions.

Good man, both of these 'snacks' were my late mums secret treats, loved them as well:greengrin

The grub these Nigerian boys served up was legendary. I swear I'm still fu' days later.

Tempura prawns and prawn toast with Chilli sauce.
Nachos in Hot Sauce.
Lamb Bhuna with Nan Bread
Mixed Kebabs

They were all off to the gym at 6am. That's dedication. After a defeat too.

Ghanaian and Tunisian lads in my work were high fiving the morning after. Both say Nigeria are like the England of Africa with their constant arrogance and belittling. Told them always liked them due to their cool strips which went down poorly

Sounds amazing food. I love hot spicy food, and add hot chilli flakes to virtually everything. :aok:

Ever make your own Indian food? I learned just over a year ago when my wife bought me curry books by Misty Ricardo and Dan Toombs. It's all me and the boy want to eat now, stroganoff and the likes are off the menu now lol.

Unfortunately, I've not learned the art of authentic curry making. The nearest I've got is frying off chicken, and adding curry sauces, the hotter the better. However, I appreciate there is a lot more to it than my simplistic but tasty cooking. I admire you taking the time to learn Harry. Good on you.

There's a product called Mr Naga Hot Pepper Pickle in a jar you can buy, put an 1/8th of a teaspoon in your sauce and that'll put some heat in there lol. Careful with it though, Jalapeno peppers are around 5000 units on the Scoville scale, Naga Chillis exceed one million.

Thanks for the tip Harry. Looks as if its in stock at Iceland. If I can buy some this weekend, I'll certainly let you know how it goes. i was planning a simple curry this weekend coincidentally. Some of the sauces aren't as hot as advertised, the best one I normally use imo, is the Tesco Finest Vindaloo sauce. Easy to make, chop up chicken breast fillets or buy ready chopped, flash fry, into pot with sauce, bring to boil, simmer for 12 - 15 minutes, done, serve with rice, and hot nan bread. Probably makes a curry connoisseur wince, but I like it. Simple and easy for a Saturday night meal. :aok:

Hope it's delicious, just be careful with that Naga pickle :greengrin My Saturday will involve knocking out several dishes, all from Misty Ricardo recipes. For this coming week I have a Beef Karahi, Shrimp Karahi, Butter Chicken, Rogan Josh, Kalimirch and a Saag Paneer for my veggie wife :aok:

I will definitely be cautious with the Naga pickle, at least at first, I will certainly let you know what I think of it :aok:. Your meals sound delicious bud, I've always wanted to be a better cook. Maybe one day, I'll have a real go at it. Regards to you and the wife Harry, thanks again bud.

Bypass volumes one and two and go straight to the Compendium. It has every recipe from the first two and a few more..

I'm the opposite, not much of a Chinese food fan but I did make this Chinese dish a few weeks ago on request and it was pretty damn good to be honest and not at all difficult.

Have you tried the mayflower powder that you can get in home bargains/B&M’s. I really like it.

Yes tried that, it's OK but just not the same as it is from a Chinese takeaway.

Just a wee follow up on the Mr Naga pickle Ghost Chilli's I tried Iceland, and couldn't find it, spoke to a worker there, who looked it up, completely out of stock. I'll maybe have to order it online. While I was in there I bought 3 for £5 Patak's madras sauces, and used one of them instead. Added Chilli flakes and black pepper, not that hot but still very tasty. Looks like I'll have to try it another time mate, but thanks very much for taking the time to let me know about it. Nice one.

You'll be able to buy from the website I posted earlier in the thread.

Sorry mate, I hadn't noticed your post with the link, saw it now, and it does paypal. Nice one, thanks Hutchy! The hotter the better, have you tried it?

Aye, it's very good. Take it easy initially would be my advice.

Another option to chilli flakes is to look in Asda for Thai chillis - you'd need three + per dish but they have a nice flavour if they are available. I think they are also known as Birds Eye chillis.

I've still got half the 'curry' left in the fridge for tomorrow night's tea Harry. I'm not far from Asda, and will look for that tomorrow to add to it. Thanks mate. Lovely :aok:
