My DH is a trained chef, he trained at the Savoy.... He hasn't done it for about twenty years though.

He does most of the cooking when he's here. I am a good cook, cook from scratch and bake.

I recently bought an amazing cheat Thai curry it's honestly as good as some I've eaten in Thailand for about £2.50. You just add veg or meat or whatever, go and buy it if you haven't!!

Anyway this kit is perfect, good balance of ingredients and quick. I had some garlic butter on the side for the kids pizza crusts. Husband picked it up, please don't use it, I say. Then I go to put it on the table for the kids and it's gone.

He's put it in the Thai curry, you know those Thais and their butter heavy curries! This is not because he didn't know he shouldn't use it, it's because he's a know all about cooking and thinks he's still a bloody authority on cooking.

AIBU in thinking he's a bloody idiot???

I've just made spam and pickle sandwiches for lunches tomorrow following this thread. I found it lurking innocently next to some tuna in brine in the cupboard. I bleedin love spam. The other half (1/4 😳) of the tin is on a plate in the fridge. It will be fried with an egg in a soft morning roll on Saturday with brown sauce. I ignored the best before date of Dec 15.

I love spam, did i mention that.

Is Spam like luncheon meat? (My vegetarian for thirty years now sister used to love that!)

Interfering know it all!

Did you tell him that it was for something else?

PosieReturningParker · 03/03/2016 20:38

Yup! It's alright now I have wine WineWineWine

And PMT therefore susceptible to being enraged over garlic fucking butter.

Have to say yy to the pp who said about taking over in the kitchen!! To be fair I now just make him finish whatever I'm cooking when he interferes. Now I'll have to hide the garlic butter, just in case!

That spoony fucker!! Angry

I would be most angry because it meant the kids went without, AND you deliberately asked him not to. Is he one of those people that puts their hands on the plate when the waiter says it too hot?

Bet it tasted loads better with the garlic butter it's not like he's putting strawberries in your curry is it? Confused

And a blue dragon curry mix? Eugh

PosieReturningParker · 03/03/2016 21:33

Bum. I'm not lying about the taste. I've been to Thailand lots of times, it really is good.
