"Parsley will help with bad breathe "
I am not worried about that this time. I am not going to be doing any kissing until I see my partner at the Weekend, & I am sure I will not be so garlicky that I can deter vampires from a hundred metres away by then! |

"Put a dish of water with a cut up lemon in the oven on a low heat.
Or leave out bicarbonate of soda  "
I am trying the onion first.
If onion hack is not good. I will try this! |

"As a son to a Mother who constantly cooks Indian food... Burn the kitchen down and rebuild. It's the only way 
Sensible advice  "
Of course, failing that then the yankee candles for Mother's Day and Birthdays always come in handy too |

Excellent idea too. Get bread scented ones and you've got garlic bread. No need to thank me  |

Stock pot, water, lemon cut in half, heat on full.
... I suppose out of context that sounds kind of kinky... |

I have made more than just a garlicky error in this recipe.
I did the old trick of salting aubergine to draw out the excess liquid & prevent the bitter taste, and well.... overdosed on the salt.
I thought rubbing it off of the aubergine slices before cooking would suffice, but they must have absorbed a huge amount of salt.
So unfortunately my meal has not only made my kitchen stink, but the meal is so salty even with the aubergine picked out, that I can't really enjoy it.
Lesson learnt.... listen to my partner and follow recipes to the letter.
If I hadn't salted the aubergine and doubled the garlic it would have been a lovely meal. |

"Oh dear OP! I hope you have a handy tin of soup ready for emergency consumption?!"
I ate just enough until I couldn't stand the high salt level any further then had a cheese sandwich! There is always a back up plan. It was just disappointing as I hate wasting food, plus it took me a while to prep and cook.

Yes, I'm similar when it comes to waste. Oh well, you know for next time... |
