Culinary accident that turned out good

[robjh]

I boiled a pan of chick peas dry this evening while in the next room consulting an online cycling forum, and after retrieving what I could, was left with a mess of dried-out, mushed-up and slightly charred legumes at the bottom. What to do?

Answer :

Bit of tahini, olive oil, garlic salt and pepper, some blending and it made a pretty good hummus.
Mmmmm...

That looks like a meal fit for a ........ @robjh

It would be better with a courgette though.

Raw cauliflower

Raw cauliflower

I thought I was doing well rustling up tahini, a lemon and some celery from the recesses of the kitchen - I didn't have access to a whole greengrocer's shop!

I did a Vietnamese marinade for grilled chicken thighs once (I think it was brown sugar, soy, lime juice, fish sauce), but it was just too wet and ran clean off the chicken. I threw the lot in a pan to reduce it a bit, forgot about it for about 25 minutes, and the marinade had turned into a fab Asian flavoured sticky caramel glaze.

I never make anything that has a name. That way it never goes wrong.

This is how all posey "cuisine" started

Someone makes an error and passes it off as a "signature dish"

Looks like something perfect to eat whilst reading The Guardian.

Raw cauliflower

How do you make that?

Lol, I meant I'd load that lovely looking dip onto raw cauliflower (and maybe some pretzels)

Nothing is ever better with a courgette.

Raw celery should be used for decoration only, then swiftly binned....

Couldn't agree more. I was referencing a bike ride I did with @robjh once upon a time when he suddenly yelled "STOP!!!"

The issue was a courgette for sale at a garden gate.

The dog made something like that the other day.
