To think it will be ok

[ItalaItala]

I was making a beef pie today and DH defrosted some stock to put in it.
As I plopped it into the pan (where I had sweated off some onions/ garlic/ herbs and the browned beef chunks) I realised that it was the basis of a fish soup (very fishy but tomatoey too).
He went potty and washed the beef chunks (I refried the onions etc and kind of started from scratch) but I thought it would be ok... You know... Surf 'n' turf...

Was HBU

Hard to say for sure but it sounds a bit rank.

When you say he went potty, do you mean he was was angry? There was definitely no need for that...

I'd have kept going, probably. Depends how fishy it was, though, and how much I cared about the meal I was making.

When I said potty I meant he was outraged and jumped up and washed the beef himself. He then suggested it was a bit Fawlty towers (with me as basil!). We fell about laughing at the image with plenty of (very bad) impressions and as I insisted it should be ok he suggested I put it to the MN jury.
Dinner was a success and the kids did not detect anything fishy about it :-)
