    You lose. Smiley Person A is James. I used a combination of spinach and normal lasagne sheets.

    Taste-wise, I used a standard white sauce recipe whilst James used creme fraiche which was lighter than I expected it to be. But, he also added cider vinegar and white wine (Huh? it isn't chicken???) so there was a bit of a acidity kick to his version which wasn't very pleasent. *drum roll for James' opinion*

    Nope, it didn't. He added it near the end so I don't think it was cooked into the sauce enough.

    Actually I didn't add vinegar and creme fraiche together  Roll Eyes. I used a splash of vinegar to the bolognes and creme fraiche to the bechamal sauce. I was aiming for a contrast between a tangy bolognes and a mellow, creamy bechamal sauce. And it worked!

    Ferrero's bolognes sauce tasted better than mine before it went into the oven (which I think was down to the stock cube she used) and my bechamal sauce tasted better than hers (which I think was down to the creme fraiche).  When it came out of the oven, I didn't really enjoy either of them to be honest. It was late, so I might not have been in the mood. And Ferrero just warmed up her lasagne for lunch; I had a bit and it tasted much better than last night. Lasagne is one of those dishes that greatly improves when left to mature after cooking. I haven't tasted mine again yet though.

    It didn't work. A kick of spice, maybe. But not an acidity undertone similiar to what you get when you undercook a tomoto-based sauce. Tongue

    I'd use my stun gun to stop you. Then I'd leave chicken bones over your body, so you wake up surrounded by the chicken bones of the chicken I just ate. The roast potatoes wouldn't even last a minute.

     Cheesy

    Durban style is inspired by how lots of Indian families roast their chicken in South Africa, including mine. A combination of garlic, ginger, lemon, green chilli, coriander and cumin powder is blitz together to make a paste. It is then used to coat the chicken and roasted. I used the juices from the chicken to cover the potatoes half way through cooking so they didn't have an english-roast potato taste to them Smiley Yum.
