Bored with Butties phase 52b – the Grand Finale
Posted: Fri Dec 24, 2010 2:56 pm
For the final episode in this culinary adventure, it’s a shame not to do a proper Christmas lunch in the Bongo 
I was contemplating just doing this
but having put the sprouts on at Easter as tradition dictates 
(while I was doing the stuffed squids with cous-cous) they’re now just about ready to eat 
Oh, I haven’t got an oven in the Bongo so a roast turkey is out of the question. But I do know a suitably delectable substitute for turkey when I see one
Spam, pigs in blankets, spuds, parsnip, sprouts, carrot (& pancetta, gravy, oil & parsley)
Peel & quarter the spuds & parsnip, peel & slice the carrot....
....then boil the spuds & carrot....
....add the parsnips after a few minutes
....add the sprouts to the carrot with a few minutes to go. You’ll notice I’m struggling to keep this boiling, it’s -4C outside and my butane is either nearly run out or more likely not boiling itself
Drain the spuds & parsnips and chuck them in a pan of boiling veggie oil (beef dripping would be much better but I’m on a diet )
Fry some pancetta in a little butter with the pigs in blankets. You can roll the streaky bacon around the sausages yourself or Asda do ten for £1.00 at the moment if that’s too much effort ....
....add some breadcrumbs & chopped parsley....
....add the drained sprouts to the pancetta mix, keep the pigs in blankets separate....
Happy Christmas
Well I do hope I’ve tempted you to try cooking in your Bongo when you otherwise might not have, I’ve enjoyed preparing this little lot and, dare I say, eating it as well. Best wishes to you all for a Spamtabulous Christmas and a Bongotastic New Year from Team Muz HQ
