What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[moonsi til]

Scored in reduced section in Waitrose with the following for 25p each , chickpea /peppers mezze, black olives, potato salad, hummus, smoked padron peppers plus prawns which my partner had. Served with a veggie quiche & salad.

 

[Detroit City]

We ended up with 5 large pizzas, 3 sides and 2 desserts. I don’t even like pizza that much.

hey Looby send some of that shit over here

 

[sojourner]

Gorgeous tesco ham, mushroom and mascarpone pizza for me, spicy mushroom and veg vegan pizza for him, olives, garlic bread and salad. Currently the size of a beached whale!

Ben and Jerrys choc fudge brownie soon.

 

[Little Piranha]

Got a gilt headed bream for me and a posh burger patty for him. We're staying at my MIL's while she's away so we can have a bbq (no garden at ours). Red cabbage, chilli, parsley and coriander salad on the side.

Still a while off being cool enough to eat though...

Oh, bream, I love bream

 

[Little Piranha]

Oh, bream, I love bream

Me too, although I don't think I've cooked it before. Any tips?

 

[Orang Utan]

a very strong gin martini

Bolognese with tagliatelle

red wine

Is it whole or fillets? Either way, I'd do it very simply, BBQ will work well, maybe brush the skin with olive oil or a little melted butter, season it and be very very careful not to overcook it. A pat of herby butter melting on the top of it once you serve it. It's a lovely fish. Not sure about BBQ cooking times, I've not had outdoor space for nearly 30 years so I would suggest checking to see what google says

Sounds great, there's some herbs here so I'll make up some butter and maybe stuff some in the middle too.

I'll check the time, I normally get so nervous of overcooking fish on the bbq I end up with borderline sushi. Fine with tuna, not so great with white fish...

E2a: no gas in the bbq, Franco Manca delivery instead.

 

[Badgers]

Probably a day for a light salad. Perhaps a cold buffet with Olives, Feta and such things.

But no...



Defrosted it and it needs cooking. With mustard mash, peas and herby onion gravy

That is my favourite pie in the world so will be glorious but still, a bit hot for this weather.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Just had some mackerel pate and oatcakes - now going to lie down on the settee with the fan running. Have got some soy and chilli salmon that needs cooking today, but it's too hot so I'll do it for breakfast in the early hours.

I love blue cheese with beef, there's not enough of it in my life.

 

[fishfinger]

Pork stir-fry and rice.

 

[Orang Utan]

Pancetta and Parmesan risotto

 

[Looby]

Last night was a random collection of beige food from the freezer as we needed to defrost it.
Tonight, I’m not sure. I’m off to the beach shortly so probably something there. There will definitely be ice cream and gin.

 

[onenameshelley]

Home made Pastéis de Bacalhau with a nice green salad. Baby spaghetti hoops and pepper strips. Mini milks for pud.

 

[wayward bob]

freezer tea

= hash browns, fishfingers, peas, limoncello

 

[Ron Merlin]

Fried halloumi and red pepper with Greek salad and seedy baguette.

It was fucking brilliant

 

[Epona]

Fry up tonight (I think it's a bit too hot for that sort of dinner but OH wants it and as he has been back at work today I am ok with it - my choice tomorrow though!)

For me, pork sausages, for him fish fingers - with fried eggs, mushrooms, baked beans, fries, and toast

 

[May Kasahara]

A big bucket of ice.

 

[sojourner]

I'm actually doing ironing tonight (only happens in the summer), so will be having easy tea of chips and cheesy omelette.

Clotted cream and bramble jelly on scones for afters, with a brew.

 

[danny la rouge]

I’m hoping for a veggie hoagie wrap. But we’ll have to see.

 

[Epona]

I think since he won't be home until gone 1am and has to be up and out at 8am that it is a ready meal from the freezer type day. He has a fish pie in there, and I have either a cumberland pie or a sweet potato topped cottage pie. All foraged from the Morrisons reduced to clear shelf at some point of course

 

[colacubes]

Pasta with courgettes broad beans, tender stem broccoli and chilli

 

[MrCurry]

Greek meze today. Chicken souvlaki, bifteki, Greek style potato wedges (must be a Greek name for that?!) with Greek salad, pita bread and tzatziki.

Ah that is perfect for this weather. I love that sort of meal in the summer but I do feel it is a little wasted without either retsina or ouzo or both

 

[platinumsage]

Peas, with rice and eggs.

Was going to be egg fried rice with a variety of vegetables, but I accidentally poured 10 servings of peas into the pan so went with it.

I've done that more than once when adding frozen peas to a rice dish
