What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Epona]

Curry update - I made chicken curry for me, fish and potato curry for OH (nothing fancy, just basic onions/spices/tomatoes/other stuff).
Mushroom pilau for the both of us.

'twas lush. National curry week get in.

 

[platinumsage]

Chicken soup with pork and fennel sausages.

 

[sojourner]

Fried halloumi, tomato salad, black olives, green salad, couscous.

Lindt milk choccy bar (half of it. Ish.)

 

[Epona]

I've got some cream that needs using up and lots of mushrooms, so am thinking either chicken supreme with rice, or a creamy chicken/bacon/mushroom pasta.

 

[shakespearegirl]

If we ever fucking take off it will be expensive warm white wine - providing Ryanair loaded the trolley

 

[RubyToogood]

Baked smug* pumpkin and round 2 of the fennel sausages.

*Not that smug as I only managed to grow 1 and it's not very big, I'll probably finish it.

 

[Elohim]

Fish fingers and chip butty

 

[quiet guy]

Poached eggs on toast. Simple, quick and tasty.

 

[Epona]

My properly refrigerated and well within its use by date bacon smelled rank so creamy chicken and mushroom pasta it is.

This just serves as a good reminder that freezing cured meat is an option too, the next pack I buy is going to get portioned up and frozen without even hitting the fridge.

Edit: actually ended up being chicken and mushrooms with brandy, wine, cream, garlic, tarragon and parsley on a bed of basmati. For a meal where I wasn't quite sure where it was heading and kind of lost enthusiasm for at the point of starting to cook it, it turned out really well - om nom nom. Happy

 

[sojourner]

Fried halloumi, tomato salad, black olives, green salad, couscous.

Lindt milk choccy bar (half of it. Ish.)

Having this tonight instead. Yesterday's fuck ups demanded the biggest bowl of comforting pasta I could fit in my belly. Had the whole bar of choc too.

 

[iona]

Roasted some yellow courgette and tomatoes earlier and I'll chuck those in with some spinach foglie d'ulivo pasta, more runner beans and lemon basil pesto.

This was so fucking good, courgettes are about finished now but must remember it for next year.

Roast duck tonight. Bastard was full of pin feathers and I ripped a lot of skin plucking, so he's covered in bacon elastoplast Might do tatties and runner beans, might just sit in front of a big fire drinking beer and eating a whole roast duck and pretending I'm a viking Don't usually drink alcohol but it's been A Day

 

[shakespearegirl]

I’m going to make bolognaise

That’s a lot of effort.
Chippie van tomorrow

I think if you've got a whole duck and you're roasting it, it would be almost criminal to not do it above roast tatties with the fat dripping down onto them.

I've got a whole field full of the cunts! Will do tatties next time, just wanted to get this one in the oven and out the way. I'm going to do a big batch of part-roasted ones in duck fat for the freezer, to use up all the spuds that won't keep because they've been half eaten by fucking ducks...

That’s a lot of effort.
Chippie van tomorrow

Might end up being duck and chips at this rate...

 

[Numbers]

It's our 21st wedding anniversary today

We've both worked today and are going to enjoy some soup (tomatoe for himself and mushroom for herself) watching MAFSUK once Mrs Numbers gets home.

Might have some chocolate for afters.

 

[cesare]

We had a delicious chicken dhansak and rice yesterday, no leftovers.

Tonight is the usual Wednesday night's tea but tonight instead - lasagne, sweet potato chips and salad.

 

[mrsfran]

Poke from Poke Shack. Can't wait.

 

[Epona]

I fancy a stir fry - I think chicken, mushrooms and green peppers in black bean sauce. With plain rice.

 

[Numbers]

I’ve been pushing for a delivery (happy with any tbf) as opposed to soup but as yet haven’t broken through.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Spotted braising steak in Asda and not had it for years. Only £3.50 for 500g. So that with chips.

 

[Saffy]

This morning I prepped dinner of garlic chicken, mash and lots of veggies.

This evening I wants something from the chipper.

Bloody hell, I hate this morning me!

 

[Epona]

Whereas I now fancy garlic chicken with mash and veggies

I love this thread.

Haven't decided yet, but I have some chicken breasts that either need to be used or frozen (well some of them will be frozen regardless), and a load of mushrooms - so probably the chicken and mushrooms in black bean sauce with rice that I fancied but completely failed to cook last night.

Although it might now be garlic chicken and mushrooms with new potatoes

 

[iona]

Those well-intentioned past selves are the worst Saffy

I'm having a totally random meal of the last bit of cold roast duck breast; duck hearts and livers fried with blewits, shallot, a handful of leaf beet and a bit of cream; runner bean, sweetcorn and tomato curry; and cheese scones if I get round to making them.

 

[RubyToogood]

The other half of the pumpkin, some runner beans, mozzarella and sun dried tomato paste turned into some form of meal.

 

[sojourner]

Had a leftover avocado, so made smashed avocado on toast with a rocket salad and black olives. I remain unimpressed with avocado. It's ok in that black bean and broccoli traybake, but otherwise, meh.

Jam and cream slice with a decaff coffee.

 

[May Kasahara]

Supermarket pizza, jazzed up with whatever's in the fridge.

An excellent Friday night tea IMO!

That's reminded me that I saw a poster in the window of Iceland on the way past, 7 items for £10 and some of the items were Goodfellas pizzas, I should really make some room in the freezer and stock up because that's a decent price and with some extra toppings they're a quick and easy tea.

 

[mrsfran]

Santino made mince and rice, which is a simple but excellent meal.

 

[tony.c]

Breaded cod and chips.
