In fact, it looks a lot like this Cuisinart model.
Ah, beetroot on a burger. Fantastic, but like TFP points out, they can be quite messy. (In Australia, it's typically pickled beetroot from a tin, but the roasted beetroot does sound interesting.)
LoCo: The recipe at bill's calls for
2 eggs
1/3 cup (2 fl oz) cream
Give that a go, and see what happens.
It's kind of weird to turn lack of research into a virtue.
I'm completely fine with the egg. Could do with some pickled beetroot, though, and I'm not sold on the doughnut.
Anybody know what Donald Link did to deserve the Crazy Bastard Special Achievement Award?
P.S. Isn't it "Chef's Chef", not "Chef's Choice"?
My mum, myself, and far too many cookbooks.
You can still buy Space Food Sticks in Australian supermarkets.
The best meat I've ever eaten was a whole pig (I saved a little for the other guests) slow roasted on a spit and this sounds even juicier. I love your word crispification. I think this pig would be even more crispificatious than mine.
Now, that's a seriously creative cake from a devious mind ...... fondant-ify away, but get some therapy!
Down on the bayou, it's called a "Cajun Microwave."
Perhaps a little Spanish is in order here.
"The La Caja China Box"?
That would translate into:
"The The Chinese Box Box"
It's a lovely concept though.
I have a very small apartment, and I use my egg cooker like crazy in the summer. I can boil eggs for a week's worth of lunches without heating up my entire apartment with a boiling pot of water.
I received an egg-cooker as a gift years ago. Mine is white plastic, looks like a chicken, and "clucks" (OK, makes a poor imitation of a cluck) when the eggs are done. You can see a similar one here.
I don't know why using this makes me lazy - instead of repeatedly checking for the exact moment the water comes to a rolling boil, a la Shirley Corriher, I can be off doing something else!
Definately tinned beetroot on a burger. Messy and delicious. Hold the egg for this Aussie though please. And avocado and mayonnaise? I don't think so. Where's the sliced tomato & lettuce? Where's the tomato sauce?
Yeah gmerall, I want to know what happened to Vegemite in the US. I have not seen if for at least a year. I stopped buying sliced bread, because what's the point?
I realize avocado is not used on the "genuine article" but I need to say that the use of mayo anywhere in proximity to avocado is just wrong, wrong, wrong. Otherwise, this looks pretty interesting. I love beets.
Yes, tinned beetroot it is, and the same here in New Zealand. When we put pineapple on it, however, it's called a Hawaiian Burger, and it'll often have a bit of ham in it as well. Those beets you have look kind of pale too - our tinned ones are dark dark red, and stain everything you drop them on.
Oh dear lord. No no no! Aussies *do not* substitute. Goodness me next you'll be telling us to eat a vegetarian meat pie!
Right then. Your beetroot must be sliced canned beetroot preferably from Golden Circle. It'll be something like this. For some reason my usual US based Aussie products site doesn't have them in stock.
I think bacon is optional but it should be a good sized piece of middle bacon. Not those weeny strips like leather. The egg is a must and then just lettuce and tomato. BBQ sauce like this
if you want the Kiwi experience use Watties Tomato Sauce and add a pineapple ring.
I'm a Kiwi but live is Aus. If I'm sending stuff to my mates I use Simply Australian to order my stuff.
And editors if you're reading this please please please do a piece on Vegemite and Tim Tams - but not at the same time! Now lets talk Tim Tam Slams shall we? :)
