MindCrime Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Ever listen to a song about food but think, hey, thats not what they are talking about? What songs do you know with food titles that are about something completely different? Brown Sugar - Rolling Stones Ice Cream Man - Van Halen Lemon Song - Led Zeppelin Pour Some Sugar On Me - Def Leppard Savoy Truffle - Beatles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blind-fitter Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Conversely, the song "Purple Love Balloon" by Leeds indie-stalwarts CUD appears, from its title, to be about something else entirely, but is actually a reference to that splendid vegetable (in both taste and appearance), the aubergine.

blind-fitter Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 ew aubergines. Aubergines are ace. You, (or whoever cooks for you ) obviously have no idea how to treat'em. A speciality of mine: Cut the aubergine (*across its width, not lengthways) into slices, so you end up with about 8 discs; each should be about 1.5 cms thick. Pour some olive oil onto a plate, and turn each aubergine slice in the olive oil, so that both sides get a moistening. Put them under the (pre-heated) grill, turning them over after about 8-10 minutes, by which time, they should be nicely browned. While they are browning under the grill, get out a jar of pesto and a round of soft goat's cheese. Slice the latter into appropriately proportioned discs. When the second sides of aubergine are also nicely browned under the grill, take them out, spread some pesto onto each disc, then top each with a disc of goat's cheese. Give them another couple of minutes under the grill, until the cheese is melted and slightly toasted. Prep and cooking time 25 minutes, max. Scrumptious. Mrs Fitter also does something nice with aubergines. (Ooooh, er, missus. Titter ye not.) Cutting the aubergine lengthways into thin strips, she makes an excellent lasagna, in which the aubergine strips are layered in such a way as to replace some (or all) of where you would normally expect the pasta to be. Not sure of the fine detail: it's her recipe, not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Aubergines are not 'ace' unless you are counting 'ace, 2, 3' and not 'Queen, King, Ace.' I have only ever liked them in the form of a stir fry in HK and in the form of mousaka in Oz. So appalled was I when I found out that this stuff was the evil eggplant I dread that I immediately confessed my sins to my mother who proceeded to LOL at me. You are English so I am a bit wary of what you consider 'ace' (from the Queen, King perspective) in terms of food. From my POV the goat's cheese and pesto are excellent additions to eggplant only because they drown out the taste of the dern thing. It does have a rather fetching colour scheme, though. I would love my room to have a similar purple/green layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
