[Epona]

Runner beans (also sometimes/regionally known as string beans, although here string beans are green beans)

 

[danny la rouge]

no

Well, they are flat and green. As the name suggests.

 

[wayward bob]

yes runner beans. of all the random shit in my kitchen drawer i don't have a bean slicer. so i cook them in lozenges but it's not the same as slices

Runner beans (also sometimes/regionally known as string beans, although here string beans are green beans)

You can get flat french beans as well and hybrids of french beans and runner beans . Runner beans only do well in certain climates as the flowers don’t set in heat.

 

[sojourner]

Laziness always wins when it comes to peeling and deseeding tomatoes for me. Plus that bit of extra roughage has to be good for you

I only ever use tinned toms

 

[nogojones]

Garlic mushrooms on sourdough toast, Polish cucumber salad with sour cream and dill and a grated carrot salad

 

[Looby]

Here you go Looby

Thanks! I’m a bit pissed so Mr Looby is cooking but will do this another night. Looks gorgeous and I’m eating shitloads of tomatoes at the moment.

 

[UrbaneFox]

4 veg samosas that had been in the fridge for ages.
They were ok.
Tea

 

[Aladdin]

Made a load of cottage pie with cheesy mash on top and mushy peas on the side.
Apple sponge with custard for desert. Proper winter food really, but tonight is chilly and it felt nice having such a solid meal. Fell asleep on the couch afterwards.

 

[RubyToogood]

Just a tin of soup.

 

[BoatieBird]

Just put a piece of brisket in the slow cooker with some shallots, garlic & red wine.
Will roast some potatoes and steam some veg to go with it later.

 

[Badgers]

Three bird roast
Some potatoes (boiled or mash)
Greens
Gravy

 

[pogo 10]

A tin of pea and ham soup, a ham sandwich, got Jaffa cakes and Turkish delight for puddo.

 

[Looby]

Chicken and chorizo paella. I want a a Chinese takeaway but unfortunately Mr Looby remembered to get chicken out of the freezer so paella it is.

 

[May Kasahara]

Cod, roast vegetables, rice. Additional green vegetables for the fusspots (and me tbh).

 

[sojourner]

We had a gorgeous tea last night - cheesy baked spuds (Maris Piper, proper fluffy inside), leftover brown rice, sour cream and 3 bean chilli, eaten by the fire in the yard

Tonight's tea is pizza. Ham, mushroom and mascarpone for me, 4 cheese and balsamic red onion for him, garlic bread, and mixed salad. Quite fancy a grated carrot salad, after seeing nogojones post about theirs. Will dress with dijon, olive oil and lemon juice. Nom!

Tiramisu and blueberries for afters.

 

[fishfinger]

Haggis, neeps and tatties.

 

[Badgers]

Unsure. Wine is a certainty but some light to eat after five days of heavy eating if at all.

Picked up some nice Salami and such from Lidl so perhaps a mini platter

 

[wayward bob]

Cor, that sounds lush May Kasahara - did you make or buy it?

 

[sojourner]

That grated carrot salad was fucking well fit - apparently a staple in French restaurants, dahling. Fancy!

Tonight's tea is matching the weather forecast - mashed spuds, Richmond veggie saussies fried with onions, broccoli, peas, and onion gravy.

Wholenut choccy for afters.

 

[Badgers]

Lidl crispy duck with hoisin and pancake rolls
