What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[farmerbarleymow]

Paella. Probably too much for one meal so will save leftovers for breakfast.

 

[sheothebudworths]

Kipper kedgeree with green beans for me and my son, kimchi* fried rice, with Fry's 'chicken' strips for the girl.

Almond fingers and a bag of Revels for pudding (just the Malteasers and Minstrels for me, obvs - my daughter is the filthy one ).


*The veggie version - the only one that made it through my lockdown attempts (I may have been a bit heavy handed with the fish sauce AND the shrimp paste on the non-veg version, even for me).

 

[Looby]

I finished late last night so we had chippy dinner. Mr Looby had fish and I had a burger. The portions are massive so we agreed to share a medium chips. Except he had some sort of brain fart when ordering and bought us a small to share which is basically a cone of chips. I was furious. The burger was actually quite filling but there was no way I was telling him that.

Cottage pie tonight, clearly it’s a beef and spuds week.

Hello all.

I'm eating well again, and thought I would jump in on the thread.

I walked up to Deptford Market today after some fish. I want the freshest fish so dont have a plan, it could be turbot or sardines.

I get two big red mullet. They were stiff with rigor mortis, iridescent skin. Yum. These are big fish.

I'm ready and almost primed to light the BBQ but will have to wait. When big love returns from cinema trip I will stuff a few herbs from the garden in the gut cavity, brush each fish in good olive oil and roast whole over charcoal for 30 mins.

I'm thinking veg and some lemon.

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

Sorry, missed this - I made it for the boy's 12th birthday (his request) It's really delicious. Recipe is on the Good Food website.

 

[May Kasahara]

We're having beef stew with potatoes and veg.

 

[Epona]

Frozen pizza tonight - cheese for him, ham and pineapple for me

 

[miss direct]

My frozen sausage and mash was actually quite nice. I feel far too tired to cook and it meant I got a dinner down me. Pimped it up with some sundried tomato, yellow pepper, loads of black pepper and mustard. Tomorrow I'm cooking for my landlady so have to make more of an effort.

 

[RubyToogood]

Yesterday - chippy dinner - shared a small cod, a saveloy and a roe with my son, breaded mozzarella sticks for the girl, large chips between us and curry sauce and mayo.

Today - curried sweet potato, carrot and apple soup with a part baked ciabatta with added garlic/herb/cheddar butter. Fruit for pudding.

Your chippy does breaded mozzarella sticks? Fucking Brighton

I've just had a roti with channa, spinach, pumpkin and potato. Lots of tamarind sauce. It's been too long.

 

[fishfinger]

Sausages, mash and baked beans

 

[20Bees]

Traybake of pancetta with potatoes, tomatoes and courgette from the garden, dressing of olive oil, garlic and balsamic vinegar, with avocado and buffalo mozzarella.
Windfall apples and pears with blackberries, stewed with a slosh of homemade rhubarb gin

 

[moose]

Still no oven, so brought out the Remoska to cook garlic bread to go with rigatoni and tomato/chilli sauce.
Eclair.

Big up for pineapple on pizza...

 

[nogojones]

A sort of ratatouille, new spuds and cheese

Yes! BRightOn! We got halloumi fries in the last one

 

[Detroit City]

baked beans; green curry coconut milk thai with chicken and half a pastrami samwich

 

[Aladdin]

Binged a bit. But it was my birthday.
I decided I wanted a break from cooking so I got pizzas, wedges and tiramisu.
Paying for it now ...

 

[BoatieBird]

Happy belateds Sugar Kane, hope you're feeling better soon.

Last night was a post-yoga ready meal of mushroom linguine. It was adequate.
Tonight we've got chermoula chicken and zhoug couscous from the recipe box.

 

[sheothebudworths]

HB for yesterday Sugar Kane - sorry for the punishment following your treat - hope it didn't ruin your day!

Boil in the bag fish in butter sauce for me and the boy and 5 minute veggie noodles for the girl, with peas and sweetcorn for us all - I cba with anything more than that Dunno about pudding either - biscuits and apples maybe.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Shredded duck croquettes with a cherry hoisin dip.

 

[sojourner]

Himself has had a late evening call forced on him, so we won't be having the feta-stuffed roast peppers that I'd planned Probably go for either chippy tea, or penne with freezer-foraged veggie saus and bean stew. With cheesy garlic bread.

Jam and cream slices and a decaff tea for afters.

 

[sojourner]

Shredded duck croquettes with a cherry hoisin dip.

Posh!

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Posh!

From Marks - not seen them before so gave them a try - they're really nice.

 

[Roadkill]

Sweet chilli sausages, chips and steamed vegetables.

 

[Epona]

Fry up tonight! Sausages and bacon (pork for me, veggie substitutes for him), fried eggs, fried mushrooms, baked beans, fried potatoes in some form (either shallow fried or in the air fryer), toast or bread & butter.

 

[Zorra]

Sticky baked salmon plus fried rice with spring greens and prawns. 7/10

 

[RubyToogood]

Continuing yesterday's theme with a home made spinach and chick pea curry with brown rice. Delicious.

 

[Epona]

The fry up didn't happen, by the time washing up and laundry were done it was late and I was tired but my sausages still weren't bloody defrosted so we had breaded pollock fillets, fries, mushy peas and garden peas (mushy for him and non mushy for me) and tartare sauce. Was pretty nice. And I can put together a fantastic tartare sauce in an emergency

 

[sojourner]

The feta-stuffed roast peppers we were meant to have last night! With garlic and chilli couscous, iceberg salad, tomato salad.

Ben and Jerry's peanut butter cup ice cream for afters, and then a few cheeky Krakens.

 

[BoatieBird]

Lamb shish, smoked rice and salad.
