cooking one today all on my own (and my first proper roast)

 

wanted to know if anyone does anything in a special way to make things extra nice and they would care to share it wwith me

 

I'm sure Ian would appreciate it!

Make sure you let the meat rest for a bit before you carve it so that it relaxs and is nice and tender

oh cheers i will do...

 

I've written a list of things to do and at what time coz I really don't wanna fuck it up

 

5 mins long enough to leave it before carving??

par boil your spuds then shake them up together then lightly dust with flower before roasting them and you'll have the best roasts ever.

I find that a tea spoon of english mustard in the gravy gives a nice tangy taste.

But only if you cook the spuds in with the meats after you've boiled them and shook them about a bit

Parboiled them and shook em up.. (ian had no collinder so had to do it in a bowl) but cooked em in sunflower oil - they were scrummy

 

as were the honey roasted parnips

 

in fact it was all yummy - went down a treat

 

also asked Ian if he has a measuring jug and he was like yeh i do! i said where is it.. he said in the bathroom holding his shaving stuff

 

needless to say I didn't use that....

never attempted a roast yet but sugar on your carrots so I'm told

 

girl here always says roasts are so easy she uses all the frozen stuff that you just have to heat up we can all do that

I got put off roast dinners at an early age cos my dad used to make really lumpy gravy and the lumps reminded me of blood clots for some reason

ewwwwwwwwwwwww

Get on all fours two fat cocks either side. Enjoy.

Roast dinners ARE easy to cook, I use to do it quite alot.

 

I use to love having Bernard Matthews Turkey Roasts every few weeks when I was married. Fookin de-lish.

 

IMO, the worst thing about sunday roast is the washing up afterwards.
