What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[mrsfran]

Jacket potatoes with beans then cheese.

 

[Biddlybee]

Things on toast or omelettes.

 

[sojourner]

Fella's making tomato and mascarpone pasta. We have no salad, so will have a small bowl of peas each on the side.

Double chocolate muffins with bramble jelly melty middles and a decaff coffee for afters.

 

[RubyToogood]

Microwave pouch coconut rice and tarka dhal. It was edible. Slight low point due to combination of hangover and making elaborate dinner for tomorrow today, but at least they're off the shelves now, they'd been hanging around for a while. I must have bought them for emergencies.

Yesterday was pasta and runner beans in tomato sauce wolfed down before a gig.

Friday was grilled sardines, papardelle with wild boar ragu, and tiramisu.

 

[muvva]

My daughter made feta and cous cous salad. Yum.

 

[Zorra]

My son made amazing Yemen rice and chicken so I got to abscond parenting for a couple of hours AND enjoy an amazing tea

 

[newme]

Turkey Dinosaur rolls with cheese and garlic sauce, served with half a pasty. So little effort was required.

What goes into Yemen rice?

 

[sojourner]

Lentil and parsley soup, 8 seed homebaked wholemeal bread.

I was intending to cook last night since we didn't eat in the pub after the walk but we got in late and a bit drunk and it was all a bit too much effort

So tonight we will be having what I was intending last night:

Trinidad style (ie. red) stew fish with rice n peas.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Chicken curry and rice.

That sounds lush, what ingredients/spices do you use for the salmon curry and the cauli?
Always keen on getting curry inspiration

What goes into Yemen rice?

Will share the recipe, it's in one of his books. But cumin, cinnamon, coriander, black limes, turmeric, saffron and some other things and you put whole fresh lemons and a head of garlic cut in two in the rice whilst it baked in the oven. You can sprinkle over raisins/nuts/fried onions at the end, but he doesn't.

That sounds lush, I am also keen for the recipe, or just the name of the chef/book it is in so I can look it up! Thanks

Tonight I made fish cakes with mash (done in the microwave, totally converted) tin of mackerel in lemon, tin of kippers, dill, fried onion, cheese, mustard, gherkins and lemon zest. Could have added peas/sweetcorn but fancied a massive salad so had that instead. Very nice and all store cupboard (other then salad) and pretty cheap.

My son! I leave the fancy stuff to him since he turned 14 (and its why I don't know the full recipe )

 

[RubyToogood]

Having lovingly made courgette parmigiana yesterday for band practice this evening it was extremely truncated and I somehow didn't turn the oven on so I had to swiftly microwave it and it got bolted down lukewarm while everyone was itching to be off.

Oh fantastic, I started cooking from quite a young age too so it's really good to hear about young cooks doing fancy stuff

Oh I see. It sounded like you were talking about the author of the book... never mind...

Ah sorry. It all makes sense in my head...

 

[neonwilderness]

Freezer foraged M&S chicken arrabiata and a couple of slices of garlic bread

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Unsalted rice cakes and water. Might have something else later - but that will be breakfast.
