Superfry Guy

My Dear Princess & Dear Fellows,

This is my air fryer. It was a gift from Caro on my birthday, and theoretically I can now healthily fry things.

I decided to road-test it tonight with nature's most perfect fried food, the chip. As you can see, my chips were just resting a bath of water when I took this. 

I decided to make sausage, beans and chips which I don't think I have eaten since I was about 12 years old. Possibly, the last time I had them was in a Little Chef.

Anyway. The chips came out looking weirdarse. You could TELL they were fried "dry" if you will. Caro also reckons they have a "nothing" aftertaste, by which I think she means she misses the oil flavour. I'm sure I can remedy this for next time.

As for me, I think it was a successful experiment. Maybe not the best meal I've ever cooked, but I am just starting out. I think next time I'll give something a crack that has actual oil in it to start with. 

And if that doesn't work, I'll just get McDonalds on the way home and bung it in the fryer. Caro will never need to know our secret.

S.

p.s. I am now having fun watching Cunk On Shakespeare. In the show, Philomena explains how Shakespeare wrote material that would appeal to royalty to increase his prestige and power, "just like Gary Barlow". 

As usual, she interviews experts:

CUNK: Are Shakespeare plays suitable for children? Because there's that one about the dairy maid with the special pump.
EXPERT: I don't think that's a Shakespeare play.
CUNK: She lives on a farm. She's got a special pump.
EXPERT: No, that doesn't sound Shakespearean.
CUNK: It's disgusting.

She then bemoans the fact that, despite the fact Macbeth contains witches, most of the murders in the play are boring and ordinary. She suggests the play would be better with "magic murders, where a hand comes up from out of the toilet and pulls someone's arse inside out".

Finally, she asks a Shakespearean expert about the words Shakespeare famously invented, but is disappointed to find he did not invent the words, "omnishambles", "bromance" or "titw@nk".

I'm just saying, you can learn a lot from Philomena.
