No, not seen it before.  I wonder why he uses outsourced images rather than provide his own ?

Hi Phil

Thats a very interesting read.
Ive never tried to cook rice in a microwave. Must give it a go.
Seem to  have a bit of spare time at the moment lol
Reading your article reminded me of a ridiculously over complicated gravy recipe I tried about 10 years ago.
That included a spice stock to be added to the gravy at the latter stage of cooking. I seem to remember it completely ruined the gravy. I know the stock had another name so I googled it and found this recipe instead from Dan Toombs. Might be worth a look

Akhni stock?

Yep - thats the one!

Well, all credit to the man, he acknowledges his sources, but I would have a teeny bit more faith in his prose if he provided photographs of his own work rather than that of other people ...

I am sure that the honourable member for Bos Nobilis will amend his own post once he realised that whatever he intended to say did not appear !
