[sojourner]

[Orang Utan]

Ah now, isn't Orang Utan from Yorkshire too? Maybe they're just too posh for them?

In any case, they aren't exclusively Northern. I was just pointing out that if you ARE Northern, then you probably existed on them for at least part of your childhood

I just had parents who were into nutrition. I'm sure that's not true of any particular area. But sugar and sauce sarnies are just wrong, esp for kids unless you're poor or summat.

These were 'snatched' butties though. Something you could make really quick, and then sneak back out the house again without being caught.

Last night the most delicious veg biranyi cooked by friends. The husbands family are from Gujarati and his wife has learnt to cook from her in-laws. Pudding was homemade gulab jamon & ice-cream and conversation turned to chapatis which he can't do! So as he has a food delivery business he pays his cousin to do them but he really wants a rotimatic...a roti breadmaker!

His cousin makes 60 chapatis an hour and his wife 20.

 

[ringo]

Just about to brown some beef and get a stew going in the slow cooker for tonight. Olive bread rolls defrosting.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

A mozzarella and tomato pizza tonight, from the Waitrose TB. I'll have the rest of the bottle of wine from last night with it.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Tonight it will be szechuan orange lamb with noodles and some sort of greenery. Can't wait!

 

[mrsfran]

Got some meatballs out of the freezer, not sure what I'm going to do with them yet.

 

[cesare]

Making lasagne today, with veal mince and lasagne sheets that were on offer. Some salad to go with and maybe some chips.

 

[Thimble Queen]

What do you mean maybe some chips?!

 

[Treacle Toes]

I have taken some steak out of the freezer. I WILL have chips and salad.

 

[Thimble Queen]

It's one of my oldest friends wedding today. So lots of delicious food and wine all day. Will report back.

 

[cesare]

What do you mean maybe some chips?!

I have to see if I have enough and if not nip round to the corner shop

 

[Thimble Queen]

I have to see if I have enough and if not nip round to the corner shop

So what you really meant was definitely chips

 

[cesare]

So what you really meant was definitely chips

Yes

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Changed my mind about the pizza (which I'll have for breakfast instead).

Now having chicken thighs and drumsticks with Ras el Hanout, preserved lemons and apricots casserole, with chopped tomatoes and chickpeas. In the oven now

 

[dishevelled]

Oh dear... oh dear me. Lots of thunder going about, so I'm just eating for the sake of eating, in case I have to dash for the tent for a Netflix evening.

Packet of cheese and onion crisps, small tin of sweetcorn, a tin of tuna, a satsuma, salami, small wholemeal loaf and blackcurrant and liquorice sweets. Oh... and a bottle of wine in the tent for my Netflix moments.

Actually... it's the kind of meal my twelve year old would choose and I'd say no to Apart from the wine, obviously.

Footnote: it's only a three man tent so I don't eat in it or cook in it. I could cook in the low small porch, but why would I want to in the pissing rain. And I've seen a snake, and don't fancy sharing the tent with that. No fucking siree.

 

[nogojones]

A big fuck off proper paella. Just got some of the best chorizo and morcila that I know of. I also have some squid, haddock, big shell on prawns and a bucket of mussels that I'm about to start scrubbing.

This continent.

 

[polly]

I made Vietnamese summer rolls with a ginger, chilli and lime dipping sauce, which I then poured over some rice noodles with more prawns and coriander. Really fresh and light, but I'm now reaching for the biscuits

 

[dishevelled]

There's no point in me looking at this thread anymore... I'm permanently hungry now.

I'll come back when I've something decent to offer you gourmets.

 

[Plumdaff]

He made paneer jalfrezi with lemon raita. Very lush.

 

[iona]

Roast vegetable couscous, mackerel and spinach.

Scotch egg.

Cottage cheese with peanut butter and cinnamon.

 

[May Kasahara]

Husband made pizza and it was fucking great.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Got loads of spuds in the fridge that really need using, so a big pile of buttery chilli garlic mash tonight I think.

 

[BoatieBird]

We got the bbq out last night: jerk chicken & sweet pepper kebabs, harissa lamb & mushroom kebabs, a few sausages that were lurking in the freezer and a tuna steak for the boy. Potato salad and green salad.

 

[moonsi til]

Veggie lasagne, potato wedges & salad last night. Today is quorn roast, new potatoes, mixed veg and gravy.
