Best Scran

Chilli taco's
Bacon baguette done in air fryer
Eggs made in the George foreman grill

Looking for a change as I eat the same things all the time

What's everyone else's best scran ?

Good chicken wings are very easy to do.

Dab them dry with a paper towel.

Dry rub of salt, pepper, smoked paprika, cumin, onion and garlic powder.

Give them a light spray of cooking spray

Put into an oven at 160C for twenty minutes (line your baking sheet)

Turn

Same again for twenty minutes

In the meantime, put in half a bottle of Frank's Hot Sauce and a of tablespoon of salted butter in a pan and gently heat until made into a buffalo wings sauce

Take the wings out (give them three or four minutes at the highest temp if you want some gnarly charred bits)

Toss them in the sauce

Done.

Home made lasagne is also very easy and can be prepared the night before, make a bolognaise type sauce (I use a mix of a small tray of beef mince and the inside of three or four pork sausages crumbled and browned with the beef). If you make it the night before you don’t even need to pre cook the pasta sheets, just layer it up.

Cook for the first while covered in foil then add cheese and finish until browned.

Chicken in buffalo sauce is lovely! Had nice wings like that as a starter for a pub meal recently and they were the best part of the meal.

Never occurred to me to try and make them myself.

Home made fish and chips for us tonight, absolutely banging. Even better in panko breadcrumbs but the wife prefers golden.

Garden peas need to be Hibs green - anything else is overdone, a good rule of thumb for cooking any green veg - and finished with butter.

Aw man, that sounds amazing.

My wife hates chicken on the bone in any format so if I go for something like this they’re all mine.

Some great slow cooker recipes if you have access to one:

My favourite is a Brazilian chicken curry.

1 kg Chicken breast
Red onion
Can of coconut milk
Zest and juice of 1 lime
Heaps of tumeric
Heaps of peanut butter
Salt
Pepper
A chicken stock cube
Good pinch of chilli flakes
Good dod of garlic
Cornflour to thicken

6 hours on high and serve with rice.

I thought about contributing to this thread pointing out that a slow cooker is a friend! I don’t do a lot of cooking really, but I did a chilli recently in the SC and it went down extremely well with the missus!

While I wouldn’t turn down chicken on the bone.. I do get your wife’s point. It’s preferable being able to eat everything in front of you rather than gnaw round bits 👍

How does the chicken turn out with this? Anytime I’ve put chicken breast in the slow cooker it has gone stringy.

Of course 😅

I have the recipe saved in my texts, I can remember the ingredients but not the quantities:

1 red onion
100 grams peanut butter
Zest and juice of one lime
10 grams of garlic
15 grams of chilli flakes
1 chicken stock cube
1 can coconut milk
1 tbsp Tumeric
1 tbsp Cornflour

I always put in more tumeric and chilli than the recipes calls for.

I did try it with chicken legs a couple of weeks or so ago but it was ****. So breast all the way (ooh er).

That’s for 1kg of breast which has fed 4 adults and 3 kids previously.

It goes pulled pork style, which I quite like. Like I said above, I tried with on the bone chicken the other day and it wasn’t good, too much fat and juice came out the bones and killed the flavours.

On the bone meat tastes better, imo.

Garlic salt and smoked paprika is magic in a egg mayo mix

I cook the beans in a pan with butter, reduce the sauce right right down and add as much cheese the mrs will allow and then a drizzle of sriracha. On toast or a tattie.

Sounds lush

I attempted homemade bruschetta earlier on , Grill bread , Give it a wee rub with peeled Garlic clove ,Kumato tomatoes ( i find them pretty sweet ) seasoned with salt & pepper , Let that sit 5 minutes , Add wee bit olive oil , Some Parsley and just basically spoon the tomatoes on to the bread


wee tip that work for me , I don't refrigerate the tomatoes


Was super tasty

Just battered and deep fried some large gherkins sliced length ways into four, a bit of salt and chipotle dip……lovely.

I'd scran that :thumbsup:

Corned beef hash. Fry some corned beef in butter with chopped onions. Add baked beans once the onions are nearly soft and keep stirring until the tomato sauce has reduced. Add lots of freshly ground pepper and enjoy.
