Grandad goes Hungary
Grandad February 10th, 2008
I decided to cook last night.
I have a varied selection of interesting recipes, but none of them are written down and all rely on instinct so I can’t pass them on to The Humble Housewife or Our Grannies Recipes.
I thought I would go for my version of Hungarian Goulash.
I nipped down to the village for some ingredients, but, damnit, do you think I could find any Hungarians anywhere?
No.
There were Poles, Estonians, Bulgarians, Chinese and a clatter of Americans.
And an Italian.
We had my version of Spaghetti Bolognaise instead.

I was serious about that guest post!!!
You seriously want me to give you the secrets of one of my road-kill recipes??
Give us your best shot at your mum’s Boston Baked Beans!
Or your Dogfood pie, that’s always nice in emergency situations.
Grandad - why go Hungary when you could’ve impressed them with a Grannymar special?

I can vouch for her Broccoli and Almond soup - simply delicious!
Tune in tomorrow (Monday) for her next recipe.
K8 - Strange you should mention Baked Beans…. Just found the recipe!
Steph - Nothing can beat my Bolognaise [except maybe my curries, or my roasts, or my chicken and brocolli...]
Grandad hurry up with the Baked Beans I’m stareving.
Steph whist or Grandad will sell my soup recipe to Cully & Co!
Grannymar - I said I just found the recipe. I didn’t say I was cooking it. You’ll have to open a tin. [Quite good on toast?]
It’s one of those ones where haricot beans have to be left steeping for years in advance, so I wouldn’t advise a wait.
I’m vegetarian, myself.
The local population of physically disabled people is dwindling at an alarming rate.
of course, that might be a bit /too/ out-there…
Naaah!
