Best thing I've watched in AGES. Dark, slow, black comedy?, simply brilliant.

I’d say teenagers might be ok, 15 or 16 with “parental guidance” 😬 but not younger

DontBeAPrickDarren · 20/09/2023 08:04

I think it would be wasted on younger ones anyway. Definitely a 15+ where they can hopefully understand the nuance to the episodes.

@Crinklycut I made the omelette! Boursin, crisps, chives, sieved eggs - oh so good! (Did take about three supermarkets to get cream cheese and chive crinkle cut crisps though).

Willmafrockfit · 20/09/2023 09:47

did you sieve the eggs?

hanahsaunt · 20/09/2023 11:16

@Willmafrockfit yes - did the whole thing just like Sydney and it did taste fabulous. So much so that I have made it that way several times since just to quality control.

Willmafrockfit · 20/09/2023 11:43

thank you, might have to buy boursin today!

Crinklycut · 20/09/2023 12:26

Yes! I’ve done the omelette, too. It might become a Sunday night staple.

hanahsaunt · 20/09/2023 13:09

@Willmafrockfit I did it with boursin the first time for complete authenticity but another time with a local hard cheese which tbh I preferred.

Willmafrockfit · 20/09/2023 19:35

tesco was all out of boursin today goddammit!
i got tesco own,
will update later

Do chefs really go eugh that much when creating recipes?

I loved some of the insight and chef language but wondered about that part

Willmafrockfit · 20/09/2023 20:48

i imagine they do as they have taken advice, from Fak, who is a chef.

the omelette was indeed delicious!
i did have doubts that the boursin type would be overpowering but it was not at all.
i couldnt get all the egg through the sieve though

Willmafrockfit · 20/09/2023 20:49

might need a quality control too @hanahsaunt

superoz · 21/09/2023 00:21

I need to try to make this omelette! To those who have made it did you pipe the Boursin on?

Willmafrockfit · 21/09/2023 05:50

no i didnt, just a line of boursin

hanahsaunt · 21/09/2023 08:23

Likewise - just a line but I think that I used too much. Oh no! Might have to make it again 😅. The crisps are essential.

superoz · 23/09/2023 15:14

Thank you @Willmafrockfit and @hanahsaunt, sounds delicious!

I need to get a new sieve first and finding those sour cream crinkle crisps is a bit more tricky than I first thought.

MoiraRosesBaybay · 23/09/2023 15:20

I tried the first episode but it just seemed to be a lot of busy people swearing at each other.

TheBeef · 23/09/2023 15:24

Behind!

I absolutely LOVED The Bear. Watched it with DS, them again with DH.

hanahsaunt · 23/09/2023 15:27

@superoz I found Seabrooks crisps which tick the crinkle box and the flavour box. They are from Yorkshire - don't know how widely they are stocked.

Willmafrockfit · 23/09/2023 16:53

yes i can get seabrook crisps from asda,
although the recipe i found doesnt stipulate which flavour crisps, and just says potato chips.

Willmafrockfit · 23/09/2023 16:53

@MoiraRosesBaybay you need an Antacid!
no it absolutely gets better

Crinklycut · 23/09/2023 17:03

I have basically just started frying Boursin and eating it. There is an omelette somewhere in there, but it is mostly Boursin these days. Delicious.

In the US they don’t have flavours like we do, or certainly not as many.

Oh I loved this so much, best thing I have watched in ages. Ritchie! Tina! Uncle Jimmy! Francie Fak! I even grew to love Pete. The fact they all hated him because he was so boring and straight 😁.

We have a small kitchen, so 'corner' and 'behind' are now in regular use.
