What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Epona]

Change of plan, I'm doing myself a chicken/cashew/pepper stir fry and some plain rice.

My favourite sort of meal

 

[May Kasahara]

Pasta bake: crispy bacon shards, red onion/ red pepper/ cauliflower and broccoli florets sautéed in the bacon grease with garlic and paprika, twisty pasta and an outrageous amount of very cheesy sauce.

 

[killer b]

spaghetti bolognese with very long spaghetti.

Where do you even get long spaghetti these days? It used to be a thing in the '80s and "spaghetti jars" for keeping it in used to come in regular and long, but I haven't seen long spaghetti in decades, it's all the short stuff now!

 

[killer b]

I get mine from Booths, expect you can probably get it from waitrose too. The other week I got some from sainsbury's, but it wasn't obvious it was very long 'cause it was folded over in the box. it's there once you look for it anyway!

I'm more of a Tesco value/Morrisons Savers range person myself, but thanks for the info

Yoghurt and raw sugar snap peas (not together). Had a big lunch and felt lazy. It was that or a takeaway but I was good.

Are you familiar with the Pioneer Woman cookery shows? This is very much her oevre.

 

[weltweit]

A couple of Salmon steaks and peas.

I blitzed the salmon in my microwave which was probably a mistake as I over did them a little.

My mum loves her, so much I bought her the Pioneer woman book about how she found her husband. I want to eat her food, but I would have to have a lot of gaviscon afterwards.

 

[onenameshelley]

Himself and the small one are having spaghetti with meatballs for him and just sauce for her. I am eating the leftover Chinese from last night.

 

[Orang Utan]

Guinea fowl with pancetta and brandy
Mash
Kale

 

[Badgers]

Leftover kebab
Wine

 

[Saffy]

Roast beef, roast potatoes, roast parsnips, yorkshire pudding, carrots, broccoli and sprouts with lots of gravy.

Baked apple and ice cream for pudding.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Trying a new one. Mechouia style lamb.

 

[mrsfran]

Phwoar.

 

[mrsfran]

MIL did a very good fish pie today, with peas, green beans and broccoli.

I'll have a bit of blue cheese on crackers later.

Review and recipe please!

 

[Epona]

Big pot of veggie chilli
Fajita spiced chicken & peppers (for me)
Refried beans (tinned, I'm going for low effort tonight, feel rough as fuck)
Taco shells and various accompaniments - salad, sour cream, cheese
I might do some plain rice to go with it.

 

[Left sider]

Good old Sunday dinner. Can’t beat it.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Review and recipe please!

From a book I'm afraid, but if the pic isn't clear enough, let me know and I'll try and do better.

I've not done that much slow roasting of meats, so I'm still getting my head into it. The flavours were amazing, but I didn't cook it anywhere near that long (5 hours), but felt it probably needed a bit less. Maybe even a more fatty bit of meat, but that's hard with the OH. Still there's following a recipe and understanding it and I now feel a lot closer to the second and I'll certainly cook it again.

 

[onenameshelley]

Working tonight so sandwich for me, small one is having sausage pasta (again), himself is having veggie Biryani.

 

[platinumsage]

Slowcooked beef topside with slowcooked onions, carrots and celery with roast potatoes and roast cauliflower.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Not sure....might be jacket spuds. OH was out watching the Superb Owl last night and has the day off work so I'm expecting him to do something but not expecting much. Hence the probability of jacket spuds.

 

[sojourner]

Spirali cheese, roast toms and garlic, cauli.

Salted caramel sponge cake and a decaff tea for afters.

 

[BoatieBird]

Pork tenderloin, rice, green beans and broccoli.

 

[nottsgirl]

Butternut squash risotto.

 

[Epona]

I've got half a tin of tomatoes, chicken breast, and peppers to use up, so I think I am going to go for a chicken chasseur type thing (although sans champignons) - ooh and I have some bacon in the freezer divvied up into useful portions, let's go for that and I'll defrost some bacon to go in it too.

OH has a portion of veggie chilli left over from last night

I'll do some rice, plain basmati, that will go with both of those things.

Is the book title Persiana? I was looking at it in Waterstones a few weeks ago and there’s some delicious looking recipes in it.
