[colacubes]

GENETIC MUTANTS!!! ( )

What can I say - I fucking love asparagus

 

[sojourner]

It is PISSING it down here. I'm fucked off at being back to reality. And I have no idea what to cook for tea.

Oh it doesn't smell like asparagus though - it's just a bit farty and rotten - makes you feel mildly ashamed of yourself, even if no one else is there

It's like chemical warfare really. Fucking honks.

Anyway, having the remaining half of the watermelon tonight - so I'll be up all night pissing. But no asparagus so that'll be OK.

 

[Thimble Queen]

The boy is making me some cumin and sea salt roast broccoli. There will be other things later.

 

[sojourner]

Asparagus makes my piss smell fucking disgusting too. Shame cos I love the stuff.

Might make tomato biryani if I've enough toms.

 

[Biddlybee]

Quiche I think, with new potatoes and salad.

 

[Rebelda]

Small wants sausages, beans and potato windows.

I have a load of nice leftovers to choose from and I can't decide. Soup, biryani, chilli, sausages...wah.

Had broccoli roasted for first time last night. Put a balsamic glaze on it. Was delicious.

 

[Rebelda]

Thali of all of the above?

Lentil soup and a couple of sausages

 

[Beats & Pieces]

Spicy meatballs, rice, and a salad. Made by my own fair hand.

 

[Thimble Queen]

So we had a big seedy salad with a harissa dressing and half a roast sweet potato each.

 

[pogo 10]

Spinach and ricotta tortellini with garlic, onion, pepper and mushrooms. Shortbread biscuits for puddo.

 

[RubyToogood]

Spinach and ricotta tortelloni with the slightly odd combo of spinach and tatsoi in a bit of garlic butter because all of the above needed eating.

Bit of Ben and Jerry's.

Last night was fishcake, chips and mushy peas from Olley's on the way home.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Visiting my family at the moment and my sister cooked roasted celeriac. Don't think I've ever tried it, but was dead nice. Although I put sriracha on it.

 

[ringo]

Me and the littlun did huevos rancheros.
Tonight is leftover Chinese take away - salt and pepper squid, Cantonese roast pork, crispy seaweed, spring rolls, bean curd in chilli sauce and Singapore fried rice.

 

[Biddlybee]

Creamy courgette and bacon pasta

 

[Thimble Queen]

I liked that cos I was in a similar state yesterday.

I still don't know what we are having for tea *but* Im going to the shops after work so I get to choose whatever I like. Hopefully I'll have made my mind up in time

 

[colacubes]

We ended up going out for grub last night cos it was our anniversary I had a burger and he had steak

So pulled pork tonight instead.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

I'm doing a roast with a Pork Fillet. Want to marinade it in honey, soy sauce and mustard, but it appears that there is no honey at my Dad's house. I've already gone to Aldi and Morrisons today. Ball ache.

 

[sojourner]

I'm feeling a little bit better today Thimble Queen , how about you?

The plan is to make potato salad with spring onions, and have with seasoned/fried halloumi, and a green salad, but my body keeps demanding a fuckton of pasta so it might be tomato and chilli sauce with fusilli, and some feta mixed in (and black olives). With garrrrlic bread.

 

[DotCommunist]

I've had a peppercorn grill which is basically a steak sized burger with lots of pepper bits on one side. Shallow fried, 5 mins each side on medium gas then five mins on low. Garlic phili cheese big dollop on top to offset the peppery ness.
potato waffles to go with.

 

[sheothebudworths]

Weird combination of using up leftovers and doing a fast day here - a sausage each, with a steam/fried egg, griddled courgette and broccoli - and the kids will also have fried potatoes.


Strawbs/meringue/yoghurt for pudding.

Last night, after coming up with a blank on Tesco I Googled Dalepak Chinese style pork ribsteaks.

I first had them in 1991, when I worked at the market at St Martins in the fields, in a cafe up the road that used to have them as an addition to nice healthy granary bap along with a load of salad and some mayo. OMFG! I had one EVERY DAY for lunch.

Didn't even discover the frozen ones until a while after that, too - but I knew it was them as soon as I saw them given their fairly unusual shape...

OH LOOK! IT'S A RACK OF RIBS!

So I have always sporadically remembered them and bought them again (still always had them in a roll, or a pitta, with some leaves/cucumber/whatever, mayo and more recent additions of mustard and a plastic cheese slice) and I delved into search on the thread and it appears I've not had one since 2011 - WTF?!

ANYWAY - turned out Asda still do them, but with a string of negative reviews, lamenting the loss of the original Chinese style pork ribsteak - apparently replaced with an inferior tasting replica. I could weep

Tbf, the urban search gave some more recent results, too - Dalepak being one of the factories that was sending out horsemeat - so perhaps the explanation for the lack of flavour lies there...

So you enjoy your peppercorn grillsteak with garlic philidelphia while you still can, Dotty

Glad you're feeling better, lovely. I'm ok ta. I've got a rubbish cold and I can't tell where hayfever ends and the cold begins Your tea sounds nice, both options.

Weather's taken a turn for the rainy so something warming and comforting on our end

 

[moonsi til]

Last night was a veggie chilli made with quorn mince which I don't normally do. Had with tortilla bread baked in the oven and a fab carrot & cucumber salad.

Tonight is chaana & butternut squash curry (2 separate dishes) & basmati rice.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Cheese and pickled onions.

 

[Rebelda]

Pasta with pancetta, chilli, garlic, grilled pepper, parsley, lemon and broad beans. Tingly!
