What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[furluxor]

My partner is making something...it looks like a sag aloo, and he's doing some lentils on the side for extra protein. The smell is making me hungry already and I had my lunch late today.

 

[cesare]

Usual Wedn night of lasagne, airfryer sweet potato wedges and salad (and remaining coleslaw perhaps, last day today).

 

[Rebelda]

Sausage stew with extra butternut squash and sweetcorn instead of rice. Then when I'm finished this bloody document I will celebrate with either something sweet or something vodka.

 

[Biddlybee]

I vote both.

Dhal (or is it dal? daal? dahl?) with a mountain of steamed broc and no khubz, because it was mouldy. Cuppa for pud. Gin for second pud.

 

[mrsfran]

Balsamic onion and cheddar tart (not home made) with new potatoes and green beans.

 

[iona]

Scrambled eggs, bread muffins split open and toasted in this morning's bacon pan, colanderful of leafy flower shoots from the kale, mizuna and mustard greens that've started to bolt. Mustard leaves were so spicy, I had to have a glass of milk after.

 

[savoloysam]

Fillet of fish and a fruit smoothie followed by beer and the possibility of more beer.

 

[RubyToogood]

Sushi, via Deliveroo.

 

[davesgcr]

Salmon fishcakes , new potatoes in mayonaise and some superb Spanish organic olive oil , green salad. Summer food.

 

[Saffy]

Beef tacos, spicy rice and salad.
A slice of chocolate banana bread for pudding.

 

[RubyToogood]

OMG. Sushi heaven. I tried a new (to me) place in West Norwood and it was good.

 

[May Kasahara]

Pork steaks, mash and veg.

 

[Rebelda]

I vote both.

Dhal (or is it dal? daal? dahl?) with a mountain of steamed broc and no khubz, because it was mouldy. Cuppa for pud. Gin for second pud.

I think it'll be something sweet and something crisps

 

[Biddlybee]

Ah now crisps would go well with my gin

 

[Orang Utan]

Orzotto with cream cheese, peas and chives

A huge hot chocolate with chili sauce

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Made a Ribollita which I've never tried, let alone cooked. Was pretty good, but added chorizo. Pearl barley, runner beans and roasted carrots on the side.

Just came back from the pub and I would absolutely wolf this down, having had dinner and all (minus the chorizo but no offence to the chef - I just don't eat it).

 

[sojourner]

Crushed and buttered skin-on spuds, Richmond veggie saussies fried with red onion, peas, broccoli and gravy.

We finally finished the peanut butter brownies so it might be nuts and seeds flapjacks for pudding, with a brew.

 

[poppy60]

Chicken Fettuccine and mixed salad

 

[Numbers]

M&S Chicken Kyiv, pea/bean medley, potatoe salad. Twister desert.

 

[RubyToogood]

Filled pasta with cream cheese and parmesan, broccoli. Easy throw it in a pan of boiling water tea.

 

[Nigel]

Home made sweet and sour chicken

Hi Aladdin
Have you got a decent recipe for sweet & sour sauce, i've been trying loads for years but can't find any satisfactory !

 

[moose]

A kind of pasta primavera made with tagliatelle, broccoli, pesto, peas, lemon zest and the plant-based Philadelphia.

 

[friedaweed]

Fresh trout in a baking parchment parcel with wild garlic and tarragon. Avec baby potatoes and petty little bastard peas.

I'm not great at measurements...tend to just throw stuff together and taste.
I use orange juice (warm it in the pot)
Then add in a few squirrs of tomato ketchup and a good shake of vinegar. Then I add honey and taste it ..if its ok I add pineapple chunks and grated carrot( actually I use a potato peeler to scrape shavings off the carrot ) i tend to throw in any veg that's around. (Sweetcorn or red / yellow pepper) and then taste again. I'll adjust the taste with either vinegar or honey / sugar. I like it quite runny but if its too runny I add cornflour / water mix.

 

[poppy60]

cod fish fillet ,salad and strawberry mousse for afters.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Chippy chips

 

[Cloo]

Tesco had two packs of fish pie mix on the reduced shelf, so it's fish pie tonight. Remains to be seen if I'll actually use a recipe or just make something involving a white sauce, mashed spuds and some cheese, which usually comes out well enough

 

[Numbers]

Tempura chicken, potatoe salad, peas/green beans.
