CaramelMy friends always take the piss out of my non-existent cooking skills, so i decided to show them, by cooking them a 'special meal'. I decided to cook pan-fried duck with a red wine sauce. Needless to say, i sliced a huge chunk out of my finger and ended up drinking most of the red wine (for medicinal purposes!)
Anyway, by this point i'm really quite drunk, and low on materials to make a red wine sauce, being the pikey that i am, i decided to make the sauce without the wine! i threw honey and onions in a pan, and guess what i made? yep charred caramel with onions! (nice). I also burnt the fuck out of the duck - my friends haven't stopped taking the piss out of me since. They reckon without cooking skills i'll never find a husband! but hey, i have fabulous toast-making skills!
