[MrCurry]

Vegetable curry & boiled rice made with frozen wok mix veg, cream and creme fraische (and some spices), onions, soy sauce, etc

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Chicken curry again. It was lovely so I'm really looking forward to it. The recipe was a little more time consuming to make than I remember but it was worth it.
might try to find some poppadoms on the way home.

 

[BoatieBird]

Berbere tempeh with a creamy lentil/veg side dish.

It's from Cooking Like Mummyji....I'm at work and the book is at home but I can post it later.

 

[fishfinger]

Was it good?

Not bad. First reasonable curry we've had in a long time. We'll be trying them again in a few weeks.

We tried a Chinese place that we'd never tried before for my birthday. It was fucking rank

The chow mein was so sticky it was like it was overcooked Super Noodles

Hope you can see this OK.
I used a lot less oil than it says for the first step - half or maybe less. I also didn't put the water in at the end as I thought it was wet enough.

 

[mrsfran]

Thanks!

Oh god, bad Chinese food is always heartbreaking to me.

I couldn't face pasta so had scrambled eggs, toast and bacon, with maple syrup.

 

[moonsi til]

Brazilian curry-it was sweet potato, black beans, red pepper, onion, tomato frito with a topping of chopped tomato, diced onion, chopped orange, chopped chilli, coriander & juice of remainder of the orange juice with brown rice & dollop of natural yoghurt. Was well nice.

 

[RubyToogood]

Oven-baked pea and parmesan risotto. Easy, tasty, filling, warm.

I wouldn't mind the recipe for this please!

No problemo

Pea and Parmesan oven-baked risotto

• Olive oil and butter
• frozen peas
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 or 3 garlic cloves, crushed
• 2 tsp thyme leaves, plus extra to serve (or just a couple of heaped teaspoons of dried thyme)
• 350g risotto rice (Arborio)
• 1200ml hot vegetable stock
• handful grated parmesan, plus extra
• 1 dsp mushroom ketchup

Put peas in bowl to start defrosting.

Fry the onion in oil and butter until starting to soften. Add the garlic and cook for another min.

Heat oven to gas 5. Add thyme and rice to the pan, then stir well to coat every grain. Pour in the stock and mushroom ketchup, stir and bring to the boil.

Season to taste, pour into ovenproof dish, cover and bake for 25 mins or until the rice is just cooked and all the liquid has been absorbed.

Stir in the peas and grated parmesan, check the seasoning, and sprinkle with extra parmesan to serve.

 

[sojourner]

Field mushroom and mature cheddar frittata, saffron-braised spuds and toms, leafy salad.

Billionaire's cheesecake and blueberries for afters.

Monday was pizza delivery.
Yesterday was black bean veg and noodles.
Got mince to use so either spag bol or burgers.
Burgers involves going to the shop so might not win.

Ramen with the leftover chicken from Sunday's roast. Will also feature chard, chilli, spring onion and boiled egg

 

[mrsfran]

I was gonna try pad thai because I really like it but was met with sceptical looks by the family so not sure I can be bothered. Might just do chicken fried rice instead.

 

[Badgers]

Been poorly all week so hardly eaten a thing (or got out of bed) for three days which is most unlike me

Starting to feel about 17% human again so musing betwixt soup, pasta or pizza for us dinner

[gentlegreen]

Looks like I'm not going to wean myself off seasonal spuds for a while - I bought another bag of "wonky" small ones today ...
Blander fare than usual - 3 or 4 day old stew - just boiled spuds, carrots, sprouts, canned beans, mushrooms, canned tomatoes, canned lentil soup - topped up today with more mushrooms, cavalo nero kale and frozen peas.
All served up with yeast flakes, tahini, cranberry sauce, Dijon mustard and Costieres de Nimes ...

 

[surreybrowncap]

Starting of with buttered baguette
Red wine opened
Rump steak frying with plenty of onions
Chips nearly done
Seem to be out of seaweed......

 

[moonsi til]

Some sort of courgette gratin which I’m slightly worried about.
