Not cooking a main course,  but a condiment: Chilli Tomato Chutney, made with a neighbour's chillies. They are real beauties - fiery but full of flavour.  The ingredients of chillies, tomatoes, onion, garlic, vinegar, brown sugar and spices are now simmering for a couple of hours before bottling. This brew was very popular last year.

Nice Jenny,

You can't beat home made products, especially sauces, chutneys ets, apart from tasting good it gives you a sense of achievement as well, much better than the supermarket stuff.

Good looking chillis.. I'm not sure what they are, looks like a harbanero hybrid of some sort 🤔. Sounds like a very tasy sauce!!

nd here it is. Slightly overdone for me, but it’s not my kitchen (oven) and we overdid the apéritif a bit…

Touch of the Doris Day there Mick, sorry about that 😝

You are excused oh Saintly one - no home ground advantage - but you still managed to kick goals. Well played. Doris Day filter suits the occasion extremely well I'd have thought.

Pickled Pork covered in a honey, Dijon mustard and  cracked pepper - in the oven at 100 degrees C until internal temp hit 70 C and then well rested until cool.

Went well on sourdough toast with smashed Avo, egg, lettuce, and mayo.

Mate I did this in the oven, but if you have a smoker (or charcoal weber) even better. Normally on the smoker at about 110 degreesC until internal temp hits about 68 - 70 then wrap and rest.....knife cuts through it like butter.

Looks beautiful and moist mate 👍👍👍

I try not to overcook pork these days, the “safety temperature” was brought down a bit a few years back (by the Yanks that is) to 63 C

Yeah, I agree 63c is safe but sometimes I don't mind a few crispy bits, the most important thing is to rest it.

Yeah take it off the heat at about 68 deg C. Rest for ages covered....seems to work well

I’m getting embarrassed posting the same pics of dinner… 
I will be shamed into making new dishes every now and again.

Anyway, Züricher-style veal with Rösti, then (on a separate evening I hasten to add), crispy chicken with tomatoes, olives and green beans. Probably has a better name but in the book it was named after the bloke’s aunt. And a drop of French red
