Hey! Good lookin’!

[Disco]

I know it's not really fit for the goodlooking thread but I'd never post photos on this thread if I adhered to that rule. :lol:

That looks fabulous, Disco. A friend recently made egg mayo sandwiches for afternoon tea, with a bit of spring onion in the mix - I am desperate to recreate it as it was so delicious.

[Disco]

Thanks Abs! Spring onion is usually my go to ingredient as part of egg mayo but I used the cress and chives from the garden today as I wanted the egg mayo to stick around the half egg and thought the spring onion would inhibit the sticking factor.

It’s not the food that’s good looking’, it’s YOU. The food also looks good to me.

[Disco]

I'll take it, Pip!

Loved this one pot pastitsio, Emma. (And had the bns & chickpea salad yesterday and loved that too).

[emma_p]

Ahhhh so glad you liked it! And the bns too

[Disco]

The BNS was great, That dressing. I actually didn't have tahini so used unsweetened peanut butter. I've got loads left so I'm going to zing it up with lots of lime and use it as a coleslaw-y salad dressing.

That looks stunning.

I don't have the right sort of pan/dish to make it but I will buy one especially to make this.

Here’s mine for comparison! I finished mine in the oven because my dish as too big for the grill :))

That looks good.

I did mine in the oven and for full transparency it was two pot because I made a bechamel sauce enriched with an egg yolk instead and I used provolone cheese.

[Topcat]

I could also smash my face into that.

[emma_p]

I was thinking that your cheesey top looked better than mine! I love bechamel. Maybe some feta on the top would be good too.

[Disco]

I prefer the look of yours. It looks richer.

Feta would've been perfect but I didn't have any so the saltiness of the provolone did the trick.

[Pippedydeadeye]

The pastitsio is incredibly good. We followed the recipe to the letter, apart from removing a portion for Squeak before putting the topping on.

[emma_p]

Looks so good - yours has a nice top too. Maybe my pan was too big so it got too spread out.

[Pippedydeadeye]

That was a standard size Le Creuset pan.

[Pippedydeadeye]

I burned my new DOG (double oven glove) getting it out from under the grill.

[Disco]

How big is your pan, emma?

I could eat that right now, Pip.

[emma_p]

The base is 28cm.

Sorry about your oven gloves Pip!
