Default Sticking platerboard to plastered wall

In my kitchen the wall resembles the Himalaya
Range of mountains.

I would like to stick some plaster board onto the wall to cover it all up
and then put some tiles on. Length approx 19' (foot) x 18" high (inches).

The only bags of plaster that I can purchase from the local builders
supplies is quite large and most of it would be wasted. No DIY shops for 8
miles.

I was thinking of stick plasterboard to wall with something that I can put
in my sealant gun. I know this would probably cost more than plaster but at
least none would be wasted.

Your suggestions as to what to use would be most welcomed.

Kindest regards,

Jim


As has been suggested, I'd just plaster it before tiling, but no need
for any sort of smooth finish, just run the trowel over the surface to
level it. A rough finish with pockets is fine.
