Hi John (and Louisa who i’ve never met)…

I have to ask the big question now – what’s the best way to cook rice? about twice as much water and let it boil dry (hate that way), or loads of water for about 12 mins, then rinse with boiling water in the culinder after!!! (my preferred way, obviously getting rid of the scum at some point too)

Cookery classes eh… now that does take me beyond my “how to boil an egg” cook book that I got as a gift just before I went to Uni…

Sure, Aagrah’s and Akbar’s might still be (not really) pipe dreams but I guess now we’re overqualified for Omar Khan’s, since we know how to a) serve a meal in less than three hours and b) add spices to make something slightly more spicy than Ragu pasta sauce.
It’s, what?, a year since we ate there and I’m STILL pissed off.
