On the left: a miniature Shrimp Po Boy, which I'm calling a Shrimp Po Baby. Cornmeal-fried shrimp with sliced Roma tomato and a remoulade sauce that I made from Emeril's recipe (I will post that in time).
On the right: Shrimp and Oyster Gumbo <-- see link to newly-posted recipe.
In the background: Sun Tzu's The Art of War...just in case.

In fact this is not a real pizza, but this is called Focaccia pugliese/Apulian Flatbread. In the dough I added a potato.

Here, in North America, that is considered pizza by many. The franchise pizza businesses have decided that they are going to fill people up by selling them more bread than toppings...it is more like focaccia. Thankfully, we have legitimate restaurants that make more authentic, thinner crust pizza. Or, we just make the real version at home...

I like your dish very much...do you mix then rice with lamb+potatoes?

Hello i give the lamb 45 minutes in a basic curry sauce then add the potatoes for another 30 minutes i hope this makes sense ..i did not have any fresh coriander so did not include any ..the curry sauce is very easy to make and the next time i make some (probably next week i will post uploaded pictures of the making of the sauce ) a lot of the times i will eat the curry with a couple of Nan breads instead of rice

Thankfully Pizza Hut & Dominoes both give you a choice of crust here -

"thin 'n' crispy"
"regular"
"deep dish"
"cheese stuffed" - extra $2.50

Thin & crispy for the win.

Except for BBQ chicken or ham & pineapple - neither of which I would ever eat.

#nopineappleonmypizza LOL..

What do you expect for 5 bucks? Little Caesars Pizza pizza.
Never had it don't plan too.

What gets me on pizza places with the same name, how the pizzas and sides can be wildly different.
With pretty much the same ingredients.

My prior knowledge of "semolina" was in reference to pastas, never knowing the grains could be cooked in the same manner as farina. I love farina as a breakfast food during colder weather, and do put fruit on it when I have it for breakfast. But I never thought about it as a dessert food...until now. More options!

I should have also said that, in the UK, semolina pudding is a classic dessert (shades of school dinners). I would never has associated it with pasta until quite recently.
