Lovely video of Nonna making carbonara. The comments section is the usual "that's not carbonara" storm.

Brother in law came over. This is what Newari pre-dinner table looks like.
I was asked to do a carbonara. As I've said before, guanciale is not easy to source here, so I used pancetta made in the UK. Pecorino Romano and Parmigiano Reggiano. I was winging the proportions based on Rachel Roddy's recipe.
I chose bucatini for the pasta. It turned out well.
As well as it can without guanciale.

Last night's dinner, Mother's Day here in the UK. One daughter wanted lamb, the other pork, so I did both.
The main development is that I finished the crackling in the air fryer. Guess what? Light, crispy, crunchy. The missus said it was the best ever.
It's still not what I'm looking for, but it was good.

My local Taiwanese grocer has a selection of cleavers ranging from $15-$30. Am I asking for trouble by spending this little?
This might change in the future, but, right now, I'm just looking to make separating wingettes from drumettes a little faster than using a chef's knife.
Go for it. Grandmas in Taiwan are not spending $220 on a cleaver. If only such a choice were available to me!

Welcome, Gastrique! The restaurant you're working in sounds like it would be a great place to eat!

Anyway, thanks for the reminder about Pi day. I can try and sneak a steak and kidney pi into the family meal...

It is literally 300g of raw smoked haddock, salmon and cod. I've bought separately in the past, but the quantity is just right for a family meal. Of course, I add a pack of prawns or scallops. So - convenient!
Sorry, Shelby, I couldn't edit you out for some reason.

Ah, thank you @dcarch
Joke makes sense. Sorry to spoil it for anyone else.

Sorry, @Kim Shook
Please explain this like I'm 5 years old. Uh, looks like bacon, not allowed... next step? Feeling like an idiot.

Im interested. We have a microwave at work.

I really would not worry too much. Lifelong habits make a difference. Occasional indulgence or carelessness in the last 20 years, not so much.

Of course we are hugely fortunate in having health care free at the point of delivery. That said I am certain that a properly motivated manager could transform the catering without increasing the budget.
Forty years ago when I worked as an auxiliary the patient food was good enough that staff would eat any extra orders. It wasn't great, but it was at least as good as I ate at my English friends' houses.
Our poor NHS has been stripped to the bone. There is neither the money nor the interest to provide palatable food for patients.

Dover sole.
Not a proper salmon en croute.
