Recipe

This is what I had for a snack tonight, it was quite edible but far from recommendable. I suggest finding something better, but I wanted something simple to make which included meat as a primary ingredient so the staple soup or nachos were definetly out.

- Thaw out a steak, feel free to use the microwave if you are impatient like I was. While it's microwaving pre-heat the oven to some sort of warm temperature, the exact setting depends on your patience and how dry you want the meat.
- Cut off any bits that the microwave somehow cooked while leaving the rest half-frozen - toss to cats.
- Pound, stretch, massage, pull, rub, and otherwise assault the meat
- Go into the pantry and find some herbs that look good; I used basil, oregano and two other kinds. I don't really know what they were, but they smelled good so I used some. Take these herbs and massage them into the meat.
- Splash a little bit of olive oil onto the meat and massage it in.
- Trip over cats
- Curse under breath at cats
- Find good tasting things in the fridge to add to the meat, I used a teeny tiny bit of garlic, a few drops of HP sauce. Splash a little lemon juice on your hands and then rub in the garlic and HP sauce.
- Salt the whole thing.
- Put a little olive oil on a cooking sheet, put your well pummeled steak onto the sheet and throw it in the oven.
- Check in on it every now and then to see how things are going. When it looks good enough to eat, take it out, let it cool a bit then eat it. If you didn't add enough stuff to it already then add more salt or other vices.
- Throw any fatty or otherwise unpleasant bits to the cats so that they stop bothering you and let you watch Casablanca in peace.


Cheers,
