Doh

It had to happen. I knew it would eventually. I put some chicken wings in to the oven to bake. A few minutes later i heard a BANG, or sort of the sound like a pan falling or something. Go out to the kitchen to investigate. Nothing on the floor. I open the oven to find...



That used to be the frying pan lid. Glass. It was on the top oven rack right under the grill element. Which of course comes on and off to keep the oven up to the temp. Probably on fairly steady as i hadn't heated up the oven first. Shattered and there's glass all over my wings and the bottom of the oven. Oh well. I'll wait for it to cool off to take it off the rack and clean up the oven. Luckily the oven "floor" is covered in tin foil so it won't be too difficult to get up all the glass. Even tempered glass can still break into big chunks under the broiler element.

Wonder if it startled your neighbours? Anybody phone the superintendent?

What a shame, must have given you a bit of a shock!

Yes but mainly the "oh how could i be so stupid" kind of shock lol and that it didn't happen sooner!

Oh my!! Time for a new lid eh?

I don't know if i can buy one separately from the frying pan but i expect the dutch oven lid will fit it if need be. And it's metal so it won't shatter if i forget it's in the oven lol
