Pineapple Upside Down Pancakes - Fail

I love making breakfasts, and above all I love making pancakes. I leave hearty buckwheat creeps or delicate pancake day pancakes to Pete, my domain is big thick American ones. Now, I've perfected my American pancake method, afteer trying a few I've settled on a method taken from a now very batter splattered recipe in a Jamie over cookbook.

I did have my eyes opened a little with the pancake laboratory section of a cookbook my friend brought me, partly I thin because eh knew I loved pancakes, and armed with the knowledge that things like the milk can be replaced with fruit juices and it still walks. Handy if you have a lactose intolerant house mate.

Anyway, you'd think being armed with all of this knowledge I'd know better then to trust a slightly confusing recipe for pineapple upside down pancakes (to make good use of the pineapple corer I got for my birthday) that involves banana in the mix.


Anyway, here is a massive pint rest fail (but a win on the caramelised pineapple, I might just do that anyway in future



They were still tasty, but that batter just wouldn't behave. I also think I need to invest in some silicone pancake rings...

The Fish Graveyard

I suppose I should update you on the fish - we've currently got 3 Isambard*, Nietzsche , Vince - they seem fine. The extreme cold did a few in and they probably need some proper TLC. Anyway - Pete and I were trying to recall other fish we'd had over the years so I started scanning the blog for fish related posts and I came across the fish graveyard from an old bit of my website that still floating around the tubes of the internet... So here it is - in memory of of the valiant pets of old. And for the ones that don't have little grave markers (or dates) Darnell Bertrand Pushkin Heisenburg I should possibly make a marker for the tomb of the unknown goldfish because I'm sure we've forgotten one... .. time for some more fish? Any ideas for names?? *We were slightly uncertain for a while if it was Heisenburg or Isambard that had survived

Man, I'm tierd. I know it's only been my usual weekend at Nero but with such a busy week preceeding it and such a busy day Saturday (stupud Lord Mayor's parade - I've more civic pride then most, but parades annoy me in SimCity where they keep centering on them, they annoy me even more when they drive past work wth loudspeakers blearing). In work again tomorrow - Amazingly the one or two days promised by my boss whern she was away has morphed into 2 solid weeks of work. GRRR - Wish I wasn't so weak willed, and I could say something, but lord knows the money will be helpful. I just keep hoping it won't hurt my project, and I have to be better at making myself work. At least I know more or less what I'm doing with my project. Been on my own this weekend as well, Pete's popped back home to proudly show off his Barista of the Year finalist t-shirt (he came 3rd in the region, lots of calls of Eurovision stylee tactical voting and thewrong shaped jugs - Pete...

Tofu Recipe Round Up

More for my own benefit then anything else I'm going to round up my favourite go-to weeknight tofu recipes. This is different from my pinterest board which is full of things I haven't necessarily tried yet but look yummy. Vegan Tofu Taco Crumbles Vietnamese Fried Tofu w/ Tomato Sauce – Dau Sot Ca Chua  (I airfry the tofu for this one) I also like to slather it in BBQ sauce and bake it for about 40 mins with peppers and onions before adding it to wraps with some salad. I've also found it's a great substitute for paneer in things - it's not quite there but it's close oh, and if I do need to press it, and I haven't got time (which is almost always) I used the microwave method from this chirpy little video
