I far prefer eggs to be fried in butter

Random fact.

I am the best fried egg frier this side of the river Soar.

please explain your technique.  Do you cook the egg in lard or oil.  do you cook it quick so the white bubbles up or do you cook it slowly and splash the white gently with oil so the white remains flat.  you cant just come along claiming to be the best egg frier this side of the river soar without further details!

Fair enough. I do 3 types of fried chukky.

1: In oil slowly, splashing the white (and yolk) as you describe. This is my 'Egg & Chips' method.

2: Oil or lard, very hot, fry until white is brown and crispy around the edges and the yolk almost, but not quite hard. This is my 'Egg Banjo' method.

3: Non stick pan, spray fat. Break eggs carefully into pre-heated pan, cook until underside is done enough to stay in one piece during phase two.  Phase two, toss eggs like a pancake, fry for a further 30 seconds to seal the yolk, and serve with wholemeal toast. This is my 'Healthy" method.

 

brilliant.  I'm a method 1 man myself, might give the second one a go today as after reading this I eally fancy a fried egg!

any update on the moles?

[RED-DOG]

OK. I'm starting my bucket list. It's in no particular order, I'll add things as they occur to me.

See a glacier and an iceberg.

Bag a nice Munro.

News of experimental mole deterrent later today.

EDIT: Do not try this at home.

Worcestershire sauce, the popular English sauce, is made from dissolved anchovies. The anchovies are soaked in vinegar until they have completely melted. The sauce contains the bones and all.

I hope this isn't true. Was starting to quite like worcestershire sauce as well

Thankfully, I don't like peanut butter.

[Claw75]

The FDA allows an average of 30 or more insect fragments and one or more rodent hairs per 100 grams of peanut butter.

This reminds me of a tale I was once told by a colleague who used to work at a McVities factory - apparently there was an acceptable 'head and leg' count for fig rolls.

the hair and insects aren't compulsory. you'll probably find most jars don't have the full amount in

presumably because no amount of heads or legs could make a figroll less desirable

Nothing wrong with a fig roll mate, or an Eccles cake for that matter.
