One that got away

I've been pretty ruthless as I have gone around my house, giving away unused stuff and slinging broken stuff, but I haven't been totally ruthless.

In the depths of a dark cupboard in the kitchen I found my Czech cooker, an impulse buy about six years ago and never used.  Shame on you FC!  It was offered on a shopping channel for £69.69 but it is very like the Remoska sold by Lakeland at £149.99. 

And it really is shame on me.  This little beauty runs at 450watts and cooks a wide variety of foods.   Today I cooked a lamb chop and sauteed a few potatoes and they were delicious.  It didn't make my kitchen hot, it is easy to clean and my food was lovely.

It will not be going back to the back of the cupboard and it will not be going to Sally Ann.

  1. That's an exciting find. I love when I find something in my house that's really useful that I had forgotten about or hadn't realized was there. Totally great that you found it, recognized the error of your ways and put it to use right away. Well done FC!

  2. It sounds like its going to be an economically sound find in your cupboard. Is it like one of those pans that cooks everything?

    1. Yes, I shall be doing some experimenting. So far I've just done chops and beefburgers and the like but I shall be trying more things

  3. I think you got a real bargain. I thought about a Remonska last year but the price put me off and I think they slightly changed the lid which people weren't keen on.

    I hate cleaning the big oven in our cooker! anything which avoids that is a bonus. ( ok, I'll be honest, my husband now cleans it)

    1. If we're into confession time, I had my oven professionally cleaned this year! I felt really ashamed of myself when I booked it but the results are superb. I normally clean it myself and shall continue to do so but every year or two I think I shall have a treat.
