to use chrunchy nut cornflakes

[agedknees]

Just watching dinner date and one of the meals is pork rolled in cornflakes (egg and flour as well, then pan fried).

Now, I only have chrunchy nut cornflakes in. What do you think? AIBU or not?
DD (22) thinks I am - past history of mega meal disasters due to experimentation.

Not a good idea imo! Crunchy nut cornflakes are incredibly sweet and normal cornflakes aren't.

[agedknees]

Thats what my dd said.

Have you not got Rice Krispies ? At least they are a 'plain' flavour ?

[agedknees]

No, cupboards are bare. It's going to have to be grilled pork then. Mind you, after last nights disaster the plainer the better.

I want to hear more about these other disasters

I want to hear more too!!

OK, will tell you one disaster story. Was doing a bolognaise in the slow cooker. Something made me put a tin of tuna in the slow cooker as well as mince, sauce, mushrooms etc.

We had chinese takeaway that night!!!!

I thought I was doing a sort of turf and surf dish.

[peggotty]

Ah it was fusion cuisine then (putting positive spin on it!!)
I like your culinary maverick style!

Been rescued by dd who is cooking dinner tonight (he he he).

I've done this, but with a crunchy topped pasta bake. We had take out that night too, it was just too, too strange!

[Tinkerisdead]

Oh god my mum used to make dinners like this and call it 'concoction'.

Turkey soup without stock = pearl barley water

Or mince, onions and gravy with drumroll .... Pineapple chunks!
