Just has a thought, when they pop around for a free meal which is not uncommon I should give them some blue cheese in a Heidi choc sauce lol. Tell them it is traditional UK delicacy and I will be deeply offended if they don't eat it.
That should stop it😛

349kcal each. You can reduce the amount of oil & increase the water to lower calories, but the result will be a bit drier.

That made me laugh! 20 minutes, good grief! We were out for dinner last night and I chose fillet steak and asked for it medium rare, which is how it like it at home but find quite often restaurants cook it more medium but I must say it was cooked perfect. Think maybe about 3/4 minutes, if that. I think you need to give your bro some cookery lessons @Mark Parrott!B: Mackerel in tomato sauce on low carb muffin
L: Ham & mustard mayo
D: Fillet steak, 2 onion rings, peas, mushrooms & chips
Pud: Pancake with cherry pie filling & ice cream.
Was at Bruv's as usual. He nuked the steak! Fried it for 20 minutes! I'm not a rare steak person, but this really was ruined.
