Ventricles, walnut steak and a star anise jus: food fit for a finals week nana. MASTERCHEF thread 6

[Halsall]

It's the final countdown.

Dies anyone give a shit about the endlessly tedious life stories? Get on with the cooking!

It's as bad as the bloody apprentice!

Thanks Schaden I know I have let you all down. One phone call would have been all it took

I wish they’d stop replaying Greg’s moronic twatty comments

Seconded Bingle

< yawns >

I dream of Gregg drowning in a vat of custard when he visits a factory during Eat well for less filming.

Squoosh. That sounds perfect. I do hope that your Wispa has been done 'three ways'.

Fuckery Another Kiwi delicacy, it's a fuckload of butter, lots of condensed milk, mixed with crushed biscuits and hard marshmallow-type things, coated in coconut. It's a staple of Kiwi life. You can't have a birthday without it.

Oh yeah, sweets are called lollies in NZ. Ice lollies are called ice blocks.

Thanks Grouchy, sounds most tempting! and only slightly weird.

So that’s ten minutes of waffle so far. By my calculations were only going to get 20 minutes of cooking

I know, bingle , the life stories take up half the damn programme

I made gf pizza with wrap for the base had an orange gin and clementine tonic, now have a bouncing headache. I'm such a lightweight.
Jilly!
Everyone I've spoken to loves her.

Dear lord what is that heaven Grouchy? Please djate a recepie while I distract myself from tedium of life stories.

If you find a coded book in the back of the cupboard, that's probably your contacts - make sure you get a cryptologist to sort it - we'll have a whip round here to pay his/her fee.

Though if they are MC fans, they'll probably do it for nowt!

Jilly is the best. I bet she's a fantastic teacher.

Squoosh My children hate it, my husband likes it a little bit.

Falling in love with Jilly!

Romaine I throw a tantrum if ALL my foods aren't served a minimum of three ways,

I love Jilly - hope she wins - but I would never have had her down as a dachshund owner - I thought a border collie girl all the way!

Is there time to microwave a quick steamed pudding?

Yes

She is fabulous what a woman

The way they're going Bucking you can probably steam one from scratch.

She's amazing

Bingle You can't get the two most important ingredients over here, but you can substitute.

She looks younger than she must be - 16 years teaching so in her late 30s? She has a very fresh complexion and has done such a lot with her life. What a role model.

I hope she wins, and I hope that in triumph she gets hold of Greggg's legs and snaps him like a wishbone!
