Topic: Seekh kebabs

[Peripatetic Phil]

It is probably at least six weeks, and maybe more, since I last made and cooked seekh kebabs, but the hotel needed to evict some of my minced lamb from a hotel freezer so I ended up making seekh kebabs this evening.  My starting point was Syed's recipe, but when I read my transcript I knew immediately that I had made some changes, so sought out and used my updated version.  But I didn't read it thoroughly

Very odd.  The post above just stops in the middle.  What I had intended to write was that whilst I read the ingredients, I did not read the method (thinking that I knew it), and blitzed the lamb mix in my 2kW jug blender rather than mixing it in the Kenwood Major using a K-blender as I should have done.  Total disaster, nearly burnt out the 2kW jug blender, and ended up with more of a paste than anything resembling raw kebab mix.  Ah well, lesson learned — next time read all of a recipe, not just the bits you think you need !

It was all there originally Phil.

"Curiouser and curiouser !", cried Alice.

Yes, I remember seeing the whole thing originally too...

Yes, the whole monologue was definitely all there. Thirty minutes of my life I'll never get back

It took less than five minutes to write, Garp, so if it took you thirty minutes to read I would suggest making enquiries at your local adult education centre as to whether you qualify for remedial reading lessons ...

I had to stop to look up the dictionary a lot.
