You ever tried a dish called “chicken ding”? It’s basically chicken cooked in the microwave…
I’m guessing Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain wouldn’t understand that honking old joke as – hold on to your Findus lasagne, folks – she has NEVER used a microwave oven! (Unlike my favourite US comic Steven Wright who claims he put instant coffee in his microwave and went back in time.)
I love my microwave – I use it to make the best scrambled eggs in the world, bar none – but, as someone with a (cough) healthy appetite, I’m ashamed to admit I keep looking through the wee glass door and shouting: “HURRY UP!” Tragic, eh? Hands up, folks, I’m a self-confessed fat, greedy b*****d (it’s a brave man who’d agree to share a fish supper with yours truly) and I must confess there’s only one thought on my mind ahead of the Queen’s funeral.
