3 Blokes, a blender and a bag of chickpeas, learning to cook.
Last weeks MCC consisted of phat phajitas, with home made guacamole and this ‘ere salsa. This salsa is blindin’ and with the unexpected spoon of honey plonked in, it transfomed into a dish that can be used in a variety of ways; a dip, part of a salad, or a facial scrub.
Quick and easy salsa [...]
Ok, it’s not pickled, I’m not Peter, but it IS Pesto. I adore pesto. It’s simple, it’s easy to make and easy to use whenever you want a quick meal. To be honest I like pesto out of a jar, but there’s something about making your own pesto (like mayonaise) that just feels right.

Pine nuts [...]
We’re slacking off. It’s bad. I’m ashamed. I haven’t posted a recipe in a while, I feel hollow, empty like an egg that Delia Smith’s pricked with a pin. I want to post, I want the knowledge that MCC Sensi has passed down to me to expand into the void of the interweb. I want [...]
The last of last weeks lovely summer hummer salads. This was my fave, although I think that we added a little too much of the old purple onion for most peeps, so watch that.
Segmenting the orange was a strange experience that you would think is easy, but again like most of these things is “easy [...]
Another night, another MCC, the summer hummer is upon us. This potato salad rocks and in no small part thanks to the home made mayo, which I’ll cross post another time (I’m getting fed up with saying that, still got some Tuna and Sardines to write up…). Stupidly I got so excited (really) making the [...]
Tie this up with the summer hummer salad vibe, and we’re talking a flavour filled Thursday night, following the Russian from behind. Embarrassingly simple and tasty, just like your favourite Baywatch superstar.
As part of last weeks MCC, apart from the Piri Piri Prawns we also did Tuna teaks with salsa. How to cook the Tuna I’ll save for a general fish steak tip as opposed to a full-on recipe. The salsa was rocking and is fully worthy of its own entry, so here it is.
I did the shopping this week, so when I hit the supermercado and saw the sexy black, shiny aubergines, it had to be rat-a-tat-touille all the way, nephew!
3 Men and a Cupboard (or Reggae, Steady-Cook)
We, the fine gentlemen of the Bristol M.C.C. decided to wing it. After rummaging in the cupboard+fridge we came up with chilli con veduras (a.k.a.veg chilli innit? My good readers).
We measure in pinches, punches, seconds and bra sizes. We love food, we just need to learn more about how to cook it.
