What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[wayward bob]

How did it go?

just put them on to boil now, so will take note of adjusted times. i thought they didn't sound very spicy, but should do nicely for the kids, i'll do some as per the recipe and some with extra cumin and prolly some paprika. ooh maybe a bit of powdered garlic too.

<tentatively> how did the cabbage curry go qog?

 

[wayward bob]

Chilli

i sometimes leave the chillis out completely when i'm cooking for the kids, then add them for us, it still tastes pretty good if you put plenty of cumin in, but without the heat.

It's the other way round in this house. I don't like chilli.

 

[Biddlybee]

This but with chopped toms, more mozarella and no breadcrumbs

i know, i was suggesting you serve yourself first

The heat or the dish in general?

I just have a tiny spoon of it on some rice. It'll be ok. I've got that weird thing at the moment where my body is saying it's hungry but I don't want to eat.

 

[madzone]

The heat or the dish in general?

The heat. I don't see the point of eating food that hurts and I get a rash after I eat it

 

[wayward bob]

lots of sour cream and a cucumbery salad helps too.

I don't do food that hurts either... make the chilli up with spices, but don't put the chilli powder/chillis in until you've taken a portion out for yourself (like bob said ) - will still be tasty.

 

[madzone]

I find just not eating it is most effective

 

[Yu_Gi_Oh]

Tuna pasta bake for dinner tonight. Done in the microwave using the non microwave setting. I am highly suspicious of my microwave claiming that it works as an oven too.

Last night's jar of carbonara was minging, I must redeem myself tonight.

 

[Numbers]

Doing my 1st Tapas tonight even got some proper little brown bowl type things too.

Menu consists of the classics, patatas bravas, chorizo in red wine, lovely tender beef strips in a lovely stock sauce, chick peas, fried breadcrumbed chicken strips, olives with feta cheese and sliced herb egg.

I even have a little 'T's Tapas' backdrop on the laptop I'm gonna display onto the telly box.

 

[Kanda]

Minted Lamb chops, maybe truffle mash.

 

[dynamicbaddog]

Was gonna have some veggie burger and chips but I popped into Lidl on my way home and now I'm having pork/garlic/pepper sausages, spinach and spuds. Plus I have mini lemon cheesecake bites for snacking on later

Ooohhh 'Lamb chops'?

If they're those fucking things you get from Iceland consider yourself defriended.

The lamb you bought up

 

[moomoo]

The children are having McDonalds. I'm going to have a Philadelphia and salad sandwich.

 

[madzone]

The lamb you bought up

Have you had any of it yet or is this the first?

 

[Kanda]

It's thy first.

 

[madzone]

Blimey - hope you like it.

I'm on the case about your birthday present - waiting for someone to get back to me

Had to go into town after school, so we had a KFC - mini fillet burger, two hot wings and chips for me, fillet burger meal for the boy (who'd prepared for the event by having nothing but a small bunch of grapes at school, the twat) and a popcorn chicken snack box for the girl.

I have to say it's quite nice to be home and all fed by half five, with no cooking and washing up needed too.

veggie toad in the hole

Just had an amazingly tasty, incredibly healthy tea - something I would have believed an oxymoron at one time.

Runner beans, courgette, peppers, chick peas, onion, chopped tomatoes, cumin, & mint out of the garden, cooked in a veg stock with a bit of chilli. With rice.

My 25 yr old self would have been asking where the bacon and cheese were.

 

[mrsfran]

Peanut butter on toast. Things to do, places to be.

 

[100% masahiko]

Dried salt fish on layer of pork mince.
Ung choi.
Steamed egg.

 

[wayward bob]

was planning a chilli but couldn't be arsed - sausage, chips, beans

 

[tarannau]

A roast duck crown, with a slight char sui/hoisin marinade, on top of pakchoi and mustard greens in oyster sauce, on rice. Nice and simple really - just got to wait for an hour, bung the duck in the oven and then wait for the better half to arrive after Pilates really. I'll practice with my rice cooker on finger, but everything else can be ready in minutes really.

 

[gentlegreen]

Two of my own super-sweet corn cobs - lightly steamed.

Yummy, coconutty flavour.

 

[cesare]

I just bought some eggs. I'm not that keen on eggs although I need them for baking ... but I might do some sort of baked omelettey type thing with roast veg and chips.
