What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[sojourner]

Bbq-flavour mushrooms on brioche topped with melted mature cheddar, with wedges and salad.

Vanilla cheesecake.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Pancakes with lemon and sugar.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Ditching the idea of having soup - it's too hot. Having some raw carrots instead - fancy organic multicoloured ones (orange, yellow and purple).

eta - and some sweet onion ryvita with mature cheddar

 

[moose]

Tacos with assorted veg, salsa, mayo, corn, 'Mexican' rice.

 

[Elpenor]

Ramen with eggs, lime, hot dog and whatever else I can find

 

[nottsgirl]

Potato-fennel gratin. Perfect day to have the oven on, although saying that the oven doesn't really leak heat.

 

[nogojones]

Refried beans, guacamole, salad and flatbreads

 

[shakespearegirl]

I love orzo. Only discovered it recently.

Tonight - takeaway veggie curry - in the garden!

I just demolished a cherry tomato, sun dried tomato, basil, red onion and orzo salad. Defuckinglicious.

 

[shakespearegirl]

I did something similar a week or two back, just in the oven with onions, garlic, chorizo, the orzo at the bottom sitting in enough stock to cook it and create a little sauce with chicken legs on top with their skin out of the stock so the skin crisps up and baked it in the oven until the chicken was cooked through - was very yummy. Will add olives next time, good suggestion.

Orzo cooked cooled and then fried with some lightly steamed asparagus is a form favourite here

I’ve been camping this weekend so Friday night was bbq stuff. Sausages, ribs, burgers and a nod to salad.
Last night we collected Dominos in town because it was blazing hot and no-one wanted to shop and then cook in a campervan.
I’m home now and despite having a massive pub lunch of brisket roll, chips and onion rings, we’ve just ordered Chinese.
Mushroom curry and rice for me, pork in black bean for Mr Looby. Thought I should be nice as he’s been joke gardening and doing housework while I’ve been swanning around.

 

[RubyToogood]

Some mushroom tortelloni from the freezer, panic bought from Lidl in Penge on the eve of lockdown #1. It was pretty much the only thing left in the chiller cabinet, probably because it was imported from Italy.

With kale, mushrooms, garlic and lashings of parmesan.

 

[Epona]

I got a chicken leg out of the freezer last night not sure what I wanted to do with it (but aware that I had to get something out of the freezer to eat!), but I have no fresh veg other than onions and garlic so am at a bit of a loss. I am sure something will come to me. It's going to be a bit beige, but I have a ton of herbs and spices.

EDIT: Oh I know, I do have orzo, chorizo, and olives and was discussing just such things on this thread, that should sort a decent meal no worries.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Pork sarnie.

 

[sojourner]

Feta and spring onion fritatta, potato salad, baby leaf salad.

Tiramisu.

 

[Elpenor]

Grilled chicken with lime, salad, lightly toasted gnocchi

 

[Badgers]

Chorizo Sausages topped with a warm mushroom and tomato salsa I made yesterday.

Boiled buttery new potatoes and salad on the side.

 

[BoatieBird]

Salmon wellington (frozen one from Aldi), new potatoes, carrots and broccoli.

 

[Numbers]

BBQ again, we’re gonna wrap some cod in foil with cherry tomatoes and red onion and BakeBQ it, probably corn and halloumi on there too + salad.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Half a dozen boiled eggs (maran island ones).

 

[nogojones]

Curried corn fritters, potato salad and a blowtorched pepper and French bean salad

 

[Orang Utan]

Dull and rice

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Curried corn fritters

That sounds nice - is it shop-bought or home made? If the latter could you post the recipe?

Decided to have some dry organic bran sticks for health too, washed down with water. Only 38.6g fibre per 100g so will keep me healthy.

Half a dozen boiled eggs (maran island ones).

Are they a decent egg? For shop bought I’m a Clarence Court, especially Burford Browns and the Legbars, man.

Yes, they've got nice bright yolks and beautiful brown shells.

 

[miss direct]

Making salmon fish cakes with herby new potatoes and green veg.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Bored at work, so thought I'd do some proper cooking. Mutton curry, chicken tikka, spiced potatoes, rice, flatbreads. I'm now seriously full.

Homemade. Rough recipe:

Cup of gramflour (or wholewheat if you don't have it)
tbls of cumin seed
tsp of hot curry powder
tsp of corriander powder
bit of salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
(I also added a tbls of milled flaxseed in an effort to be healthier)

beat all that lot together, then add:
1/2 finely chopped onion
2 or 3 cloves of garlic
As much sweetcorn as you fancy (Maybe 2/3rds of a cupful)
Some chopped chilli if you like it hot

Dollup tbls of it into a frying pan and shallow fry for 5 or so minutes each side, til they're a colour you like.

Those bransticks will counteract the 6 eggs

 

[Epona]

Laughing about the bransticks comment btw

 

[kalidarkone]

2 beyond cheese burgers with fried onions, tomatoes, lamb's lettuce, mayo, mustard, tomatoe sauce in a wholemeal bap.
