Made it for years sir. - To make the base, 200g of flour (00) teaspoon of salt and yeast, half a teaspoon of sugar. Add tablespoon of olive oil and 120ml of warm water. Bring together with a wooden spoon and then knead for a good 10 minutes. - Cover with a bowl and let to prove for an hour. - Then roll out nice and thin.

I tend to use tomatoe paste and lots of oregano as the base layer. While the dough was proving I would have boiled 2 or 3 eggs which I then peel and slice onto the pizza, accompanied by mozzarella and black olives. (Add a sliced green pepper if you are feeling fancy). - Cook in a very hot oven for 12-14 minutes.

Enjoy. (Preferably with a side of potato wedges and sour cream).

shared with orcas from the side of the boat
i like simple, ramen noodles raw
the nutty, crunchy, crispy cracker munch

but i do culinary entirely in the buff

Carbonara I stole and adapted from a chef at work years ago.

Italians cry when they hear carbonara and cream in the same sentence.

I throw a mix of 8-15 organic chopped vegetables into a pan and gently sauté with extra virgin olive oil / rape seed oil, sometimes adding chillies, ginger & garlic, spices & rock salt etc then top that with grated Parmasam, feta, seeds or nuts and serve it with brown rice or pasta for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

It’s all about eating real food, no additives & low sugar to protect my liver, feed my gut microbiome and improve my immune system to try and stay drug free for as long as possible.

Barring Drewnogal it's a very Italian vibe so far,where are the national classics,the roasts, soups and stews?.

I like doing a stir fry. Whatever meat is available cut up into bite sized bits and browned in olive oil. Add in this and that (herbs) and a cacophony of veggies, all served on a bed of rice and if available, some sake.👍
