Mi mates Fabrice an' Papou

These are mi mates from the Saaf of Fraance. They own a wittle bistro in a shitole taan cawled Tarascon. But their food is great an' I've been able to nick a few recipees offava them in the paast.

These are just a couple of them. 
Fabrices simpul but delicious salad.

This is really cheap so this why Fabrice givs it to you foa noffink. Wash an' shake several leaves of lettice; place in a bowl. In a glaas jar mix too teespoonz of walnut oil, one teespoon of olive oil, pinch of salt , black peppa, Dijon mustard an' a too slivas of Garlic. Shake until mixed, pour ova the greens. If you want to spike it up you can use a collection of different lettice but that awlways looks a bit pussy.

Lamb chops Provencal.

Buy the best lamb chops from a respectable butcher such Jean Pierre in Fontvielle. In a very 'ot fryin' pan wiv a wittle oil place the chops. Go outside foa a fag an' let the lamb cremate. Turn the chops an' 'ave annuvva fag. Chisel them out of the pan an' serve wiv wilted buggered vege. Believe it oa not the chops 'ave a wonderful flavva, cunchy texture but are sweet as.
The lamb are so puny in the saff it is the only way to cook these very fin chops. Incidentally it is the only meet that Fabrice buggers: he awlays refuses to serve steaks 'bon cuit' especially to the norvern 'erberts oo work locally in mi mate Braddies blanchesserie.

Too's up

This is Julie an' 'er best mate Saandra. Arfta a meel I sometimes asks Julie to bring raand 'er mate Saandra foa too's up, minge munchin' oa a bit of strpadictomy. She's a genuine too bagger but arfta a couple of bokkles of Gevry, several 6 inch spliffs a generous 'elpin of German Pawn it don't really matta. Hey mate, don't knock it if you aint tried it.

Time now foa a quick norvern recipee 


First walk into Wigan taan centre to the CPD (central pie district). Then purchase too Greenhalges Potato an Meet pies. Cross the road to gain access to the Market Hall to purchase too Edwardses balm cakes. Walk home quite quickly so that the pies don't go cold. Slice the balms in arf an' generously butta boff sides. Squirt on some HP, to taste, then place the pies on the bottom arf  an' then top wiv the uvva. Enjoy.

Pat Butcha

Favourit piece of furniture. That’s easy; it’s got be mi noo HD ready 52 inch awl raand saand flat screen. 

Best gift received. Without doubt it’s ‘elf, wealf, ‘appiness, good fawtune, an’ a Venetian glaas chandelier that mi first wife gave mi. It’s ‘and blown and was probably made in the firties.

Favourit item of clothing. There’s noffink better than slippin on a smart whistle. Paul Smiff, Christian Dioa, Gabbanna, Givenchy an’ that Japanese fruit who lives in Dublin, I got ‘em awl. But, mi favrit garment is a pair of old ‘Levis’ that I just hangs offava mi ‘ips, revealin a temptin’ inch of crack: that sends the girls wild.

Favourit films. Evri film that Michael was in, plus, King Kong, Olivier’s Richard the fird, The Dirty Dozen, The Bridge ova the River Kwai (cawse, one of mi Tie birds lives near there an’ it reminds mi of jungles, wautta an’ big leaves), the Rocky an’ Rambo series (but not that American ‘Get Carter’ becawse that was shite), Mrs Robinson, that film where that bloke says “Go on punk do you fink your lucky” an’ laastly Godfarva too. I don’t like noffink arfta 1990.   

If you were to die and come back as another person who would it be. I would want to be a cross between Michael, Ossie Ardilles an’ Pat Butcha.

Not just Mexico

 

Tortillas.

The daily bread of Nicaragua, Guatemala an’Mexico it is lightly milled, pattid by ‘and an’ cookt on a griddle oa a ‘comal’, an erfinware tawa.

Ingredienz

Imperial                                                         Metric

One paand of  maize kernels                          500grms of maize kernels

Too pintz of wautta                                        1ltr of water

Too teespoonz of quicklime                           10ml of quicklime

Soak the maize ova night in the wautta. Bring to the boil an’ cook foa one ‘our. The skins will turn bright yellow an’ loosen. Rub off the skins, rinse thoroughly, puree the resultant mush, ‘nixtamal’, in a ‘metale oa blenda until it forms a dense mass. Knead until a soft dough is formed, smoove an’ flexible. Divide into sixteen walnut sized bawls.

Flatten the dough bawls lightly an’ covva wiv clingfilm to keep them soft whilst you are workin’ on the pancakes. Pat an’ roll each bawl into a thin pancake about five inchis in diameter. Dampen the ‘ands in warm wautta an’ pat the dough alternatively ‘and to ‘and to thin out the tortilla. Pre-‘eat a griddle oa fryin’ pan an’ wipe wiv a cloff dippt in lard. Cook the tortilla one minit each side until the edges begin to curl. Save in a warm teetowel until awl of them are done.

To soften by re-‘eatin’ in an oven, wrap in tin foil, about six at a time, foa twenty minits. Anuvva meffod is to simpli re-‘eat on a griddle placin’ one on top of the uvva  until they are toasted on bowff sides. Serve wiv mashed avocado, affectionately cawled Aztec butta.

'Ow to draw Nick

'Ave a bit of fun tryin' to create Nick. It's a break from awl of his wonderful recipees but moa importantly it can be the ideal time to bond wiv yoa disfunctional kids.

First start wiv a simpul line drawin to sketch out the basic feetures of the face. then gradually build up the light an' shade to complete Nick's craggy yet 'andsome visage

These stages of drawin's will 'elp you oa yoa Feral kids to recreate me perfectly. It's a much betta option than playin' wiv computer games, smokin' dope, swiggin' cheep vodka oa shaggin' when you are underage an' producin' yet annuva generation of baarsturd sprogs oo will finish up rampagin' the streets of Britain unchecked by our toofless bobbies.

The ten faces of Nick

Becawse time has not been too kind to Nick his craggy ravaged mush is a cross between Richard 'arries, Oliva Reed an' an' old levva shoulda bag. thus is the cost of fame, riches an' birds.
