Making a pot of Asian chicken soup. part Thai, part Vietnamese part, WTF.

Got the remains of a cooked chook, a dozen chicken necks, some roast onion, garlic and ginger, some lemongrass, birdseye chillies, star anise and a bit of fish sauce, fresh coriander and brown sugar all simmering away in the pot.

Once it's cooked, I'll strain it and poach a couple of left over chicken thigh fillets in the stock.

I like the iceberg too. Love the crunch of a fresh leaf, and finely chopped iceberg is the best in a salad roll.

The baker shop in Toc does amazing salad rolls, they make them up before lunch time using their own fresh baked rolls. Turkey, Ham, Chicken, Salami and silverside are the options I've seem, along with iceberg, tomato, onion and beetroot. You see the tradies in there around 11:30 getting them 2 at a time.

Done jack shit today, my little personal rebellion against Mondays, the most hated day of the week for the M-F worker.

What i have done is put a brisket in the crock pot. Coles have them.

3 brown onions, halved, sliced and caramelised chucked in the bottom, some stock and seasoning, season the brisket before browning it and into the crock pot for 7 hours.

Slice across the grain and serve with mashed spuds and steamed veges. Yum.

I rarely use the PC but the crock pot did a great job. Chuck it all in and forget it for 7 hours.

No kids so I'll dial back the volume. A bit.
