I didn’t have an oven, so I cooked my dinner in the dishwasher – it was delicious, now people ask me for the recipe

A WOMAN has revealed she cooked her dinner in the dishwasher when she was left without an oven, but claimed the meal ended up delicious.

Angie Matthews found herself with just a dishwasher in her kitchen while she was in the middle of moving.

Instead of ordering takeout or going to a friend’s house for dinner, the 53-year-old decided to take a look online to see if it was possible to cook salmon in the dishwasher.

Out of pure curiosity, she decided to give it a try, and it turned out great.

Angie, from Telford, Shropshire, served her salmon with potatoes and peas, which she asked her neighbor to put in the oven for her.

She said: “It was more of a test to see if it would work.

“I was stressed at the time and wanted to make myself laugh a little.

“I first wrapped it twice in foil.

“My dishwasher was set to Heavy because I forgot to turn off that button, so it was way overcooked by the time I took it out.

“But it was still quite good and I ate it!

“I didn’t really expect it to work, if I did it again I would use a shorter cycle.

“But I was surprised that it worked. It wasn’t inedible after all!

“It was more of an experience: I now own an air fryer and I fell in love with it.

“But I wouldn’t rule out using the dishwasher again if I had to!”

Angie tried her dishwasher salmon recipe in February 2023, but shared the story online last week after thinking others might find her story amusing.

One commenter joked: “If you close your eyes, it’s pretty.”

Another said: “I bet even Oliver didn’t ask for more.” »

A third joked: “Please send me the recipe.”

Angie said: “The comments are hilarious – it’s really lifted my spirits!

“If there’s one thing I’ve learned in life, it’s to laugh at myself, there’s no point in being too serious, is there?”
