Steak, Onion-flavored chips, chocolates along with a bit of wine was very, very good.

Of course that could have been due to the fact that I didn't eat lunch nor breakfast that day, but hey...try it

Chili with tamales and hot dogs slice up in it.

I'm eating strawberries and peanut butter because I didn't have any custard. It is surprisingly delicious.

That's actually quite popular over here.

Not an issue. If it were I'd probably give birth to Mini Babybelles.

Marmite and cheese spread is also very very good.

Whats a tamale?

@j2k4 Your nation is wonderfully peanut-butter obsessed. Jars of ready mixed peanut butter and jam? That's inspired.

I like syrup and tahini on my popcorn. It makes a nice halva-type coating.
I'm not a fan of beef. Would chicken suffice?

It's a hispanic inspired dish, normally made a corn 'paste'. Using a corn husk the paste is spread inside, then a beef, pork, or chicken filling is place on of that and the husk is rolled sort of like sushi, except the tamales are steamed afterwards.

You can get fresh tamales at a nearly any hispanic corner shop, or they also come in cans at your local grocery store. Or make them of course, but that counters the "quick fix" part of it. :)

Yes, yes, and yes, it is.

It must be said, though, that the mixed variety is eschewed by the true purist, who believes if one hasn't adequate cupboard space to store separate jars, one has chosen to suffer, and must surrender his/her spreading knife. ;)

Also, that ready-mixed "jam" tastes dreadful.

Uh, when I was little I'd eat peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. Though I don't eat those any longer, apparently I do still eat strange combinations. However, I don't personally think they're strange, so I'm going to have to wait until my verifier comes home to update you all. ;)

Wholefood peanut butter, made from unhusked organic peanuts and shelled by tribeswomen of hard to reach and far away climes,* is horrible.

Peanut butter in pancakes is glorious, even better is peanut butter and melted cheese on toast.

Any stirfry can be improved with a dollop of peanut butter. Add some to your steamed vegetable for an instant Thai taste.

The best way to eat peanut butter of course is with a spoon, from the jar.

Tamales consist of a finely chooped beef with a large variety of seasoning (usually hot) wrapped in a corn husk.

Tamales are a staple food here in Texas. :)

Chunky peanut butter goes rather nicely in soup.

4 cups chicken broth
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter

1. In 1-quart saucepan add broth and chili peppers and bring mixture to a boil. Stir in bell pepper and onion and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.

2. Reduce heat to lowest possible temperature; add peanut butter and cook, stirring constantly, until peanut butter is melted and mixture is well blended.

No offense, but the day I begin taking "hispanic" recipe tips from an Australian will be the day you can drag me into the street and shoot me. :wacko:

I live in Texas bro. Whites are a minority here to the Mexican population, so I think I know what I'm talking about. I eat/prepare/cook just about as much mexican food as the average Mexican here.

This "corn paste" you're referring to might be how they do it down in Australia, but here we do it the right way with shreddered beef, jalepanos, (or bell peppers if you're a sissy) chile sauce, and maybe some onions if you like em.

It's corn masa. kinda essential to holding the tamale together when removed from the husk.

I was refering to barbie calling it corn paste. Masa is not a "paste".

And speaking as a hispanic person, I have never seen or heard of them not being made without masa.

So when you say corn husk you mean the leafy bits around a corn-on-the-cob. Do you eat the husk or scoop the filling out? I'm puzzled (seriously).

Toasted cheese, well done to bubbly, with black pepper on top. Then a fried egg atop that, with salt aboard.

Or a roll (Mortons) with plenty of butter. Containing a Scotch Pie.

Both more fantastical than you can possibly imagine.
