Anyone here grown watermelon before?
I think I planted mine too late, despite it stretching out several metres on several, er, tendrils and loads of flowers, which initially became a watermelon the size of a marble, only 1 has grown (is almost as big as a bowling ball) I have had pumpkin go mental and end up with 20+ off the 1 plant, and pumpkins grow similarly.

@Hooroo Meal report?
It's funny as yesterday I went to write a post taking the mickey out of you for telling me not to overcrowd the pan. But I deleted it.
I overcrowded the pan...….
It was really yummy all the same but that really was a rookie mistake as it was getting late.
Will definitely do again though as flavours were bangin!!

Ha ha. Melissa Clark has a recipe for bacon and egg pie, so she is at least somewhat familiar with NZ.
I had an F/O (a Kiwi) who ordered the quiche for his crew meal so I instantly started taking the piss that "real men don't eat quiche". His defence was pretty good - " it's bacon and egg pie!"

How did you do them? Looks like chilli and parsley?

Don't overcrowd the pan.
Ingredients
6 baby lamb chops (1 1/4 pounds)
Salt
pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 anchovy fillets
3 tablespoons drained capers
15 sage leaves
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Lemon wedges, for servingPreparation
Pat lamb chops dry. Season them with salt and pepper, and let rest for 15 minutes.
Over medium-high heat, warm a skillet large enough to hold all the chops in one layer. Add the oil and when it shimmers, add the anchovies and capers. Cook, stirring, until the anchovies break down, about 3 minutes.
Arrange the lamb chops in the skillet and fry, without moving them, until brown, about 3 minutes. Turn them over, and toss the sage leaves and pepper flakes into the pan. Cook until lamb reaches the desired doneness, about 2 minutes for medium-rare.
Arrange the chops on serving plates. Add the garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute, then spoon the sauce over the lamb. Serve with the lemon wedges.
So I cooked a couple of Waygu porterhouse tonight and did this sauce again. I forgot I had used up the rest of the chilli flakes with the lamb chops so I chopped up one of my dry smoked habaneros and I kicked a goal from half way. Fucking amazing.
Love this sauce.

@Hooroo I have some rib-eyes I might try that with if you think it would suit?
Look. I loved it but my favourite sauce with ribeye is chimichurri sauce I’d you have plenty of leafy green herbs and nice fresh chilli.
