What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Badgers]

Dunno yet.

Got someone from the #grimnorth stopping over so Brawn, Gruel, Gravy or Pies and wot not

 

[sheothebudworths]

I bought a jar of reduced but still VERY expensive 'lobster glace' as an early birthday present to my son so am going to do sea bass in lobster cream sauce - and a fried egg for the girl - with jersey royals and asaparagus.

We didn't have the Angel Delight yesterday cos there wasn't enough milk, so that but with proper cream since I've bought a pot for the fish!

I was so fascinated to see Brussels sprouts the other day during a heatwave that I bought some. The world has gone wrong.

Drastic! I wouldn't buy them at any time of year. Satan's testicles.

 

[danny la rouge]

Satan's testicles.

 

[tonysingh]

Faggots and chips.

 

[Epona]

Faggots and chips.

Ooh nice, do you make the faggots yourself? Not had a good one in ages

If you're in the area go to the tripe shop in Stalybridge. They sell rag puddings too if memory serves.

Goodness me no. unless a box tells me explicitly how to cook something, i don't bother. I likes me some clear steps.

Nah, it'll be the supermarket stuff.

Yeah I used to like the Mr Brains ones ok but last time I had them they were a bit disappointing and not how I remembered them
Need to find an alternative to try.

I've invented the sausage, mash and pea salad!
Sausages, purple sweet mash potato salad, with garden peas and red spring onions, garlic, mayo, bit of mustard, black pepper and some salad leaves and beetroot.

That sounds and looks lovely (it looks very you too), I'd have to have veggie or chicken/turkey sausages with it tho'.

 

[Numbers]

Masala infused Macaroni Cheese + a frilled turkey breast steak for me.

 

[BoatieBird]

Steak, chips and salad

Steak, chips and salad

Will you have your steak blue or will you ruin it?

 

[Aladdin]

Too hot..
Had a banana and yoghurt.

I will not ruin it, it will be rare

 

[UrbaneFox]

I've got some burgers, so 2 of those and some salad.

 

[Ron Merlin]

Merguez x 2, homegrown radishes, avocado/cucumber/tomato/red onion salad and a bit of seedy baguette.

 

[moose]

An orange tea, scavenged from freezer and pantry: M&S veggie Kievs, rösti and ratatouille.

All the wines.

 

[Maggot]

Water melon to start. Penne bolognaise, made with Plant Pioneers mince.

 

[RubyToogood]

Mindless chef frozen veggie shepherd's pie. This was ok but a bit salty and a bit insubstantial. Afters of a little bit of muesli with Greek yoghurt, stewed plums and honey.

 

[Elpenor]

Bbq stuff at my friends house.

some sort of lamb kebab and salad

a lot of wine

 

[LeytonCatLady]

A Bernard Matthews turkey steak with potatoes, broccoli and carrots.

 

[danny la rouge]

Disappointment and ennui.

 

[May Kasahara]

Last night: rather a lot of drink, then a couple of slices of cold pizza when I got home.

Tonight I am thinking of attempting the aubergine and lemon risotto moose - anything I need to know, is it a faff?

 

[Looby]

Chilli and nachos.

The Ottolenghi one? Only the prep of the aubergine 2 ways is a faff, really. I do the blistered one directly on a gas ring (with foil round the base of the ring to avoid mess). Or you can just shove it in a hot oven as he suggests. It needs to be proper collapsing. I just use my usual Kallo stock cubes as I CBA making stock. I add an extra squirt of lemon at the end because I love them so.

Don't forget the rules state that whilst one glass of wine belongs to the risotto, the rest belongs to the chef and should be consumed on the job.

 

[nottsgirl]

Pad Thai.

 

[RubyToogood]

Posh farmers market macaroni cheese and a slightly elderly courgette with the remains of the pesto I made last week. I say posh but actually the ready meals I get from that stall are both much cheaper and much nicer then the subscription ones I've been getting. I'd quite happily live off them except that they're a bit calorific and she doesn't have much variety. Chilled satsuma

I had to google lobster glace. The top result wasn't particularly enlightening:
