L*rd, glorious l*rd!

[reddragdiva]

It's not l*rd, though, if it's butter, is it? Good.

• Eight sausages (the mid-range line from Sainsbury's)
• What started as 400g mushrooms (in the fridge two weeks; a bit dried out)
• Two large baking potatoes
• Two half-cobs of corn
• Butter. Mmmmmm.

Bake the potatoes for about forty-five minutes. You've all got your Bee Nilson to hand, haven't you? (By the way, has anyone checked out the update?) So you know they're done when they're softish to the slight squeeze (with a teatowel).

Around this time you should have the water for the corn boiled. Put the corn in. Prick the potatoes - beware the little jet of steam - turn the oven off and leave the potatoes in there.

Start the sausages and the mushrooms - which you will have cut into fairly thin slices, since they're getting dry - frying in butter. A fair bit of butter. Don't fry on the highest heat, because you'll take a bit of time over them - about twenty minutes instead of the usual ten to fifteen.

Serve yourself and your sweetie. More butter on the corn and the potatoes (which will need a fair whack, actually). A bit of salt on the potatoes and corn.
