I must say, the Panang we had last year, cooked by Mr & Mrs Dundee, was bloody gorgeous.  If you are unimpressed by high street Thai restuarants, as I am, that will change your mind!

There may well be one thrown up prior to getting to Newent this year, rather than cooking on site, once I know the numbers and speak nice to Kate ::)

Perhaps we should have a competition.......cook your speciality dish and bring it along  :y

I can do a reasonable chilli con carnie.......but depends if my mate has got any 'special tomato soup'  :D

Ive run out of his last batch........ok i can get it 'warm' using chilli powder.......but tastes so much better with chilli powder left out and 'special tomato soup' added  :y ;D

Err no  ;D

My mate originally caught me out with it.......he was cooking it one day when i popped round.......he asked me would i like to try his special tomato soup......that was still cooking on the stove......i said sure.......so he dipped a soup spoon into the mix......it looked like tomato soup to me  ;D At first it tasted nice......10 secs later my mouth was on fire  ;D .......His missus rushed to my aid with a jug of water and told him off  ;D For playing that prank on me.....

BTW hes Italian and knows his chillies, you know the small evil red ones....and he can eat them raw  :o :o :o

Yep - at least 6 jalapenos in a chilli - with seeds and all. Fresh chillis have a softer 'heat' and add something to the taste you can't get with powder.

They are also chock full of vitamins A and C and are a good source of fibre.

If Mr & Mrs MikeDundee are planning on doing another, perhaps we should have a small whipround to help pay for it?

Deffo, there was an awful lot of meat in that last one for starters!

iirc there was an emergency trip to the butchers for another shed load of pork?

Maybe we could do a small 'subs' thing for bigger meets?

Curry's
Whisky
BBQing stuff etc?

Pork? One chinese recipe i've got somewhere involve slowly boiling the pork joint, leaving it to cool in the water, slicing off what you need then frying it off with ginger,garlic, chillies, green peppers, soy sauce...can't remember anymore but the twice cooked pork or Bang Bang pork as it was called really gave the meat an authentic texture. :P
