Delicious? Darn tootin’, it’s delicious

Posted on | July 19, 2009 | 2 Comments

Last week, I made some chutney.  Just a simple type of affair with some red peppers and a bundle of chillies and stuff.  It was the first time I made it but I was pretty sure I’d like it.  Stewed it up in a big pot and dipped in with a spoon every now and then and was pretty impressed with how it tasted.  When it cooled however, it was twenty times better.  It was double-bastard delicious.

So, now, I’ve got a couple of jars of mouth-watering chutney in the fridge.  Too, too tasty.

Really, too tasty.  It’s so damn tasty with some nice cheese and a bit of crusty bread and a beer or two that now, even more than usual, I’m sitting up late and eating cheese and crusty bread and drinking beer just so I can have some delectable chutney.  I figure, at this rate, I have about a fortnight’s supply before it’s all gone or my liver gives out.

Better make a bigger batch next time.

    Oh my, sounds mouthwatering! Did you use a particular recipe or did you just make up your own version?

    It’s one from a Jamie Oliver book. I’m not embarrassed to have a Jamie Oliver book. Why would I be embarrassed to have a Jamie Oliver book? Nothing wrong with it. Perfectly all right to have a Jamie Oliver book.

    It is fantastic chutney, though.

I mostly sit around all day and drink tea. Occasionally, I write stuff and send it to strangers so they can humiliate me and debase my efforts. Other than the self-harm to dull the shame of failure, it's not a bad life. Like I say, there's tea.

    • Effectively, Bear Grylls has made a career of exaggerating stuff and eating crap that scuttles. He'd clean up on I'm A Celebrity.
    • I do love Bear Grylls' ridiculous hyperbole: "Anyone who underestimates this Death Chasm, will be dead!" It's a bloody kerb, Bear.

    • It was a lot of crisps, to be fair. I feel a little unwell.
