Trick is no milk just eggs. Fork slowly wisk add half melted butter. Slow cook and add more butter. Folding eggs over. Butter prevents eggs getting too hot.

I learned to improvise, so: 1. when baking, I found that using a trivet to stop contact with the direct heat of the base reduced burning the bottom of roasts, cakes, bread etc. 2. likewise, I...

Not too bad, at $8.85 for the piece, just did a basic brown it in the pan and then a slowish roast. Gravy from the pan with a bit of help. Left overs for lunch the next day. Might get a bit fancy the next time.

Some how it has changed, tastes the same but has the consistency of liquid nails, hard to spread and not like it used to be, not sure if I like it due to difficulty in spreading on fresh bread or toast for that matter

Quite often you are requested to preheat the air fryer before inserting the food, after you pull the basket out to add the grub, the heat has gone, stupid instruction/ Do you use a silicone or non stick parchment liner or none. we have both but tend to use the parchment mostly. Have you tried making toast...

Here's a tip I picked up recently from Nagi Maehashi. Sprinkle meat with carb soda at least 15 minutes prior to cooking, rinse it off then pat dry with paper towel prior to cooking.

First step, set traps & catch yabbies. Next, boil yabbies in a large pot. Peel yabbies while loaf of bread is cooking in camp oven. Place yabbies on generous slice of fresh bread, sprinkle with salt & make sandwich. Take a large delicious bite.
