One ring on my cooker is stuck permanently on a medium-to-high setting, I’m coping with it (and it’s getting replaced soon) but I feel bad when I switch on the cooker and don’t use that ring. Think of my carbon footprint!
Today I needed to heat up a couple of pita breads, but I didn’t want to use just the grill and waste the hot ring.
So I opted to cut the pitas into thinish slices, fry them in butter, flip ’em, drench them in Parmesan (still in the pan, let it melt over them), and drain on a kitchen towel.
Throw over a bit of salt. Amazing.
Sometimes, it really is better just to fry it.
