They're watching him in the front room now.

He has that certain je ne sais quoi thing.
I rather liked that tropical fruit ravioli he did. A bit involved though and definitely more time-consuming than opening a tin of Ambrosia creamed rice.

Not my kinda thing. Turns out I know more about capsicums than Raymond does. The show should really be called Monsieur Blanc's Holiday — Raymond and his pals have a giggle, swap herb stories, and make some pocket money. |

Pasta.
Well, not all pasta. I'm not keen on it at the best of times, though I will eat it (potato is much better all round), but I can't stick it when it comes in sheets.

Oh, what, lasagne? I love pasta! So do I, especially lasagne, especially the green one. My favourite is a lentil lasagne dish, but it never turns out quite right for me, whereas my daughter and her mother, using the same recipe, make it perfectly every time. I seem to suffer the Curse of the Lentil. (No, not that one.) My daughter practically lives on pasta. The worst spaghetti bolognese ever we got in a "restaurant" in Clervaux, Luxembourg. You wouldn't believe just how vile bolognese sauce can be in the wrong hands. And the spaghetti was overcooked. Nearly caused an international incident.  |

Oh, you just reminded me - undercooked pasta.
Probably invented because someone screwed up, and pretended he meant it to be like that.

Raymond Blanc - I was told - had a bit in his programme where he said he was going to rub his pork - his assistant raised his eyebrows a bit and tightened his lips.
Next week he'll show us how to beat the meat (with one of those small mallets that they have).

Oh, Raymond is usually a leetle bit saucey every week. He says something that can be taken two ways and someone in the background usually sniggers.
