Jack Monroe #119 She says lots of things, many of which are false

[People-huv-tae-know]

I assumed it was something she’s knitted

Poor tummy would be in knots trying to purl those 'stitches'!

It all just looks so.....rubbery. Vegetable peelings - just why?

 

[Into_the_tunnel]

I am ready for some more pictures of rankness.

I don’t know who I am more angry at right now, Jackanory or Williamson. Mrs Tunnel is going to need some cheering up when she gets home from school so I am going to veganise the gravy buy a Greggs vegan sausage roll for her.

All is quiet on the western front. My guess is that either she is knitting in neither a focussed nor precise manner OR she is reworking the recipes for a 3rd time to make even less waste and is using the packaging for Christmas decs. Lard wrapping paper anyone?

Anyone?

 

[TillyMiffin]

We all saw a brain with sparklers floating in a bowl of puke and heard the Lost theme in the background, right? Right?

I don’t know what that was supposed to be. Dessert?!

I genuinely thought it was a haggis/faggot

 

[Captainmouse]

Has she dipped that in her mug of tea

I did wonder that earlier, but was charitable with the armpit comment

 

[Walkdengirl]

That has just confirmed many christmas dinners will be ruined this year thanks to JM.

I don't think they will, as I don't think anyone will make it

 

[live laugh loathe]

Does anyone follow Elly Pear on Insta? She’s very much about zero waste, her recipes are often vegan and are tasty.

24 hours later I can’t get the thought of gravy made from blended raw onions, lard and “baking spread” out of my head it’s proper sent me under

Ella Pear, and her book Green, is fantastic

 

[FlorenceFlutterbucket]

Hasn't she asked this before

Numerous times

 

[HotesTilaire]

Everyone’s experience of the Rona varies, I didn’t have the high temperature (but I was sweating despite a low temp?)
I would not have said I had a rattling cough though. Not something often reported.

Lard definitely has its place.....just not in gravy.

My late grandmother used to roast her potatoes in it, I prefer beef dripping. Hiwever with lard my Nan used to add her saved fat which had a lot of flavour.

I have lard in the fridge but no baking spread or I might consider taking one for the team and making the horrific sounding gravy.

Many pages behind, but surely this is rice pudding? After Southend constabulary have cracked our case of the century they’re gonna have to look for the missing person in this dish - where the fuck are the prawns?!

Looool someone beat me to it! X

Looks as if she's plonked it on a bed of lingreenie.

 

[emmer_moans]

I've never seen roast vegetables look so greasy before A cook, Jack is not.

 

[Into_the_tunnel]

Then came the dramatic "because reasons".

I hate this almost as much as her “because, science or something”. Used in the Christmas cake recipe and shows why, so perfectly, it will taste absolutely rank.

 

[Ladderedtights]

There’s a show on Channel 4 right now called Chefs vs Corner Shop! Right up in Jack’s niche!? Or what COULD be her niche if she bothered her Mediterranean arse!

 

[Captainmouse]

what if she does a chaos at the same time?! wouldn't that be amazing!

I just hope she doesn’t gatecrash! She'll probably try to steal slopbot, so she won’t have to think of another recipe ever again, especially now he’s using tinned fruit.

Dear Ninnies,

Love, Jack xoxo

Where did she stick the probe to get that temperature reading though

Is the twist that the dog ate it earlier?

Also I (probably) had Covid (there were no tests) I could hardly walk or speak. Certainly wasn’t tweeting and knitting.

 

[Smeghead]

She knows she has a massive challenge to try and direct attention away from 'The Sloppies' later on. I don't rule out an A&E lady doctor being involved.

What odds can I get on this episode inevitably resulting in a 'Long Covid' self-diagnosis that will be wheeled out to excuse any future failures to deliver?

Bookies have closed the market on it.
