What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[BoatieBird]

Slow cooker gammon, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, carrots, broccoli, sprouts and gravy.

 

[cesare]

I think it's chilli non-carne (puy lentils) and rice tonight. It's been a while so looking forward. There should be enough for our lunches tomorrow too.

 

[mrsfran]

Dinner at MIL's - pasta with home made pesto or tomato sauce, home made garlic bread, cucumber and tomato salad.

 

[Epona]

Early Sunday tea again - pork chop for me, tuna steak for OH. Roast spuds, steamed broccoli, Yorkshire puddings, gravy.

 

[kalidarkone]

Oxtail brown stew, this time in the slow cooker and the oxtail was marinated overnight. With brown basmati rice.

 

[sojourner]

Turmeric and spinach dhal made with nigella/mustard/cumin seeds, cayenne and fenugreek, with roast spiced cauli and basmati. Fit as.

Vegan walnut brownies with raspberries (and possibly some vanilla ice cream).

 

[Rebelda]

Baked potatoes, fish cakes, cauliflower, sprouts, green beans, peas and sweetcorn. Butter, salt, pepper and salad cream.

 

[pinkmonkey]

Sausage stew, we’re freezing, we’ve been outside from about 8 this morning, until 3 and we still haven’t warmed up despite sitting next to the burner since then. This’ll fix us.

Stew and dumplings

 

[Maggot]

Hairy bikers sausage casserole, (or stew, if I want to stay on theme).

Is that the one with butterbeans? One of my favourites that one.

Yes, although I used chickpeas instead (and veggie sausages obvs).

 

[Epona]

Yes, although I used chickpeas instead (and veggie sausages obvs).

I like that particular recipe a lot because the sauce is lovely - rich flavour and good consistency, occasionally tweak it a bit - OH always has veggie sausages, cannellini beans or kidney beans also work really well instead of butter beans. Also sometimes add whatever veg needs using up.

 

[Epona]

I made an error in leaving the rest of the Yorkshire puddings on a cooling rack in the kitchen, I've been in there twice since and 2 of the Yorkshire puddings didn't survive me walking past them, at this rate there'll be none left to go in the freezer

 

[iona]

The last bit of blue cheese and a tin of pea and ham soup. Only just got in and I need to go back out again to sit in the polytunnel on rat watch

[RubyToogood]

Mushroom and tromboncino risotto with a glug of truffle oil.

 

[Epona]

I tried a different ratio for my Yorkshire batter this time and it worked really well - James Martin's granny's Yorkshire recipe, saw him doing it on telly recently.
It involves a lot more eggs than I'd usually use - came out lovely, will see how it stands up (literally!) in a toad situation next time.

 

[Zorra]

The most amazing Palestinian lamb with chilli lemon roast potatoes and cumin / maple pumpkin. Took 5 hours in the oven in low but so worth it! Lamb could have been pinker but my oven is shit and everything else needed to cook.

That was this morning, managed to splat one outside with a bit of wood Tonight was just throwing stones and shouting to send a message. Bastards have fucked all the beans when they were nearly ready to be podded and finish drying indoors.

 

[JimW]

Took a pic of the tea I cooked tonight as a joke for the wife, who is an excellent cook and always posting pics of the meals she makes on social media. My effort a bit less wow, tofu diced and braised with mushrooms, potato slices, and cauliflower with tomato:

 

[pinkmonkey]

Turkish (fingers crossed) we’re in Goole marina for El Jugs birthday, it’s the boatiest place on this canal and I wanted him to be able to wake up surrounded by big boats.
Every time we come here, a family crisis has kicked off and I’ve had to pck my bags and leave. Meaning we’ve never managed to get a Turkish meal delivered from the big restaurant in this town, that looks great, but we’ve never tried. Hopefully this time.

 

[May Kasahara]

Tonight we are having tagliatelle with self-serve stuff.

 

[Rebelda]

Fingers crossed for your Turkish pinkmonkey!

I think I'll be making a big coconut chicken curry, with cauliflower, butternut squash and chickpeas. Basmati rice.

I'm away midweek so the fridge needs meals for those left behind I've done a lentil soup and got chicken carcass stock bubbling away now for noodle soup. Hopefully there'll be some left when I get back!

 

[BoatieBird]

Venison meatball traybake with yellow & orange peppers and beetroot.

Does he like big boats and cannot lie?
