What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Epona]

Indifferent meal of wholemeal tagliatelle (not buying them again, I don't like them), smug courgette, soft cheese and some of Lidl's cheapest smoked salmon. Bit of Jude's salted caramel ice cream. Cup of redbush.

Courgette, soft cheese, and smoked salmon sounds like it should be the makings of an excellent pasta dish! Sorry to hear that the pasta itself let the side down.

When in China:

Absolutely nothing I’ve tried to load on the web works except for Urban Thank goodness.

I don't know what this is, but I want to eat it. More pics of Chinese food please.

 

[Epona]

We're having (going to be a late one cos we haven't been back from the supermarket long!):

For me: Kung Pao chicken with cashews instead of peanuts due to allergy (I don't think I will ever tire of this dish!)
For OH: Prawns/peppers/chillies in sweet and sour sauce
For both:
Mushrooms and broccoli in black bean sauce
Egg fried rice
Vegetable spring rolls (from the supermarket, not home made!)

There was something not great about the ss too. It wasn't off, but it was just somehow... not great.

The chili on the left there has been somewhat pickled and/or gives off an earthy taste whilst the noodle is in chili oil. Whereas the one on the right is more a soup.

 

[sojourner]

Egyptian lentil soup with garlic and coriander naans.

Dark chocolate cornflake cakes.

 

[Orang Utan]

Macaroni cheese. One of my favourite regulars: it’s actually rigatoni cos more cheese can get in, and the cheese sauce is basically a bechamel infused with onion, nutmeg, bay leaves, peppercorns and dry thyme, with cheddar and Brie melted into it in the last stage. All covered with Parmesan and breadcrumbs and finished off in the oven for a nice crispy topping. Can’t go wrong.

Beef stew apparently, its hot here so that will be probably not what I would have gone for usually, however I did also buy veg then not use it and apparently beef was reduced at lidl. Plus I am not cooking it so thats good either way.

Egyptian Lentils or egyptian flavourings? I know bugger all about both lol.

 

[starfish]

Got some chicken marinating in teryaki, soy & maple syrup. Will cook in the air fryer & do some rice with it.

It's just cumin and coriander and fresh lemon juice, with bog standard red lentils. Simple but delicious.

 

[Epona]

OH has decided he wants to see Oppenheimer with me this evening as he has the night off, so we'll be having leftovers from last night's Chinese Fakeaway reheated when we get home.
Sweets for first tea in the cinema ofc

 

[shakespearegirl]

Leftover Nepalese that I had last night after seeing Oppenheimer

I like all those things and had no idea they all worked together that simply lol. Thanks

 

[Zorra]

Had a hankering after nachos all weekend but since I was with Posh Friends we never ordered them. So made that tonight with a chipotle chicken and bean type thing and aaaall the sides. Plus I got told that we have cuts coming up and we have to make some of my team redundant (possibly including me) so I stopped working rather than sitting there crying about how shit it all is, and made a cake with my daughter.

sojourner 's Egyptian lentil soup is a thing of beauty and has been giving comfort to Urbs for many years since she first mentioned it - I make it sometimes when we are in need of a quick and hearty soup here and it's fucking lush.

 

[shakespearegirl]

We are having a (relatively) cool couple of days, so I’m going to roast some potato cubes, chicken thighs and make a big salad

 

[May Kasahara]

Salmon fillets, probably with noodles, definitely with chard as we've got fucking loads of it.

 

[BoatieBird]

Pesto topped fish traybake with new potatoes, tenderstem broccoli, baby corn, green beans and olives.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Pound and a half of cherries.

 

[sojourner]

Off to see my mother outlaw. Fish and chips and mushy peas.

 

[Epona]

I'm going for rump steak, roast new potatoes, fried mushrooms, broccoli, onion and red wine gravy.

 

[Epona]

At least I think it's going to be rump steak, what I wrote on the bag isn't legible so it's mystery beef - if once defrosted it turns out to be beef shin it will be beef stew and dumplings instead

Edit: It was a rump steak

 

[shakespearegirl]

My chicken was off, grim… expiry date of Sunday, purchased on Monday

 

[Saffy]

I did a maggi in chicken bag thing.
Had it with steamed veggies and new potatoes.
I bought a massive tub of pineapple from Costco, which we're finally at the end of. I'm going to roll it in cinnamon sugar and airfry it. Going to have it on top of greek yogurt.

Love reaction particularly for the pineapple dessert - I don't have that much of a sweet tooth but I do love that sort of afters! The acidity of the pineapple and the spiciness of the cinnamon will cut through the sweetness a bit, I am now wishing I had some pineapple in

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Keema from the freezer, rice, loads of fermented red cabbage. Think I've not been eating well for a while couldn't get enough of it.

 

[RubyToogood]

Cold and rainy weather deserves miso soup with gyoza and greens (and some random smug French beans which needed eating).

I made that mistake before, ended up with a chili lasagne, it worked great! My labelling it still shite... we even have a label machine thing. I generally forgot to even label anything at all.

 

[Zorra]

Chicken curry (from the freezer but I did make it) and a general sense of disappointment.
