What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[BoatieBird]

Steak pie with steamed new potatoes and spring greens. Gravy.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Big pot of chicken stew in my not so slow cooker.

Aldi have still got drum stick meat considerably cheaper then thigh. Long may this continue.

 

[UrbaneFox]

Pea and ham soup.

Ages since I made this, but I bought some super bright split peas and a piece of smoked gammon.

It's been brewing all afternoon, so I'm going to add a few chunks of carrot for a little 'bite'.

Should last a few days.

I love this. I've done it with ham hock a few times, which is lovely, but really a bit to much faff. Tried it with bacon which worked, I'll have to give it a go with gammon.

 

[tony.c]

Pulled spicy beef with mango puree, peas and brown rice.

 

[Epona]

Sausage/potato/pepper/onion traybake.
Thinking I might upgrade the sausage part to pigs in blankets tho...

 

[Orang Utan]

Had boeuf bourgignon last night - a great way to use cheap cuts innit!

 

[Orang Utan]

Tonight it’s quesadillas!

 

[story]

Tonight I had
Lamb cutlets in a yogurt and cumin marinade. Roasted beetroot, carrots, garlic, sprouts, red onions. Mash. And a gravy made with Dragon Stout.
And as I’m saying this I realise I forgot to plate the cavallo nero. Oh well, that’s the basis for a salad tomorrow.

 

[sojourner]

Roast peppers, red onion, garlic and field mushrooms, with pesto pasta.

Microwave golden syrup sponge pudding and custard. Not made this for aaages and got leftover custard, so why not?

 

[BoatieBird]

Sausage traybake with potato, parsnip and carrot. Steamed broccoli on the side.

 

[Epona]

Thai style fakeaway tonight - a chicken and cashew dish for me, prawn version for OH, a fried rice dish to share.

 

[cesare]

Teriyaki salmon with veg stir fry and udon noodles. So delicious

 

[shakespearegirl]

I had a big lunch so when I get home from haircut I’m having crispy pork bites dipped in hummus

 

[Epona]

Last night as she was in London for a meeting, we met up with OH's sister in The Warwick Castle.
OH got called in for a night shift at the last minute though and needed to eat before work so we got some food there - he had a very excellent vegan cheeseburger with fries, and I had the fish & chips.
A bit on the pricey side but very nice.

Not sure about tonight yet.

 

[smee]

Butternut risotto tonight - allotment butternut (roasted) and some spinach stirred in - as got some heavily reduced and needing to be used asap!

 

[sojourner]

Chippy tea, cos we're getting the collective hair cut at 5.30 and will be too hungry to wait until tea has cooked when we get home. Fish, chips n mushy peas for me

Sticky toffee pudding and custard for afters.

 

[Saffy]

Spaghetti bolognese and garlic bread for us tonight.
Toffee meringue for pudding.

 

[sojourner]

Tagine made with peppers, onions, garlic, aubergines, courgettes, apricots, tomatoes, homecooked chickpeas (mmm buttery nuttiness!), harissa paste and fresh coriander. Will have with brown rice.

I'm hankering after homebaked ginger biscuits too, so might make some of them if I can be arsed by the time hometime rolls around. Leftover Roses if not.

 

[shakespearegirl]

Last night I had delicious pork cheeks delivered by a friend, tonight stuffed mushrooms.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Half a block of stilton. Opened it this morning so it needs using up.

 

[Epona]

I made some potato skins stuffed with cheese, leeks and spring onions - absolutely fucking lush, I thought I'd made enough for the freezer but not a single one made it that far!
I had a supermarket chicken kyiv with mine, OH had a tuna steak. We both had tomato and olive salad and sour cream to go with.

 

[May Kasahara]

Something with potato wedges. Egg and bacon for the boy, probably quorn nuggets for the girl, not sure yet for me.

 

[blairsh]

Garlic and Harissa chicken legs, wedges and some bread and butter.

 

[newme]

It shall be lasagne, and if it isn't I will be furious and perhaps become a shubbery, being as I was supposed to make it yesterday and it went wrong for badly labelled stock reasons. Then I made it all over again today, apparently I am the only one eating it now and I made like 12kg but I don't care. I am having a fucking lasagne, just need to do the bechamel as its been nicely simmering a few hours after all the prep, just the mirepoix was 3kg lol. I may eat nothing but lasagne for some time simply out of sheer bloody mindedness.

 

[smee]

tonight It’s sort of koftas (made from paxo plant meatball mix) with homemade flatbreads, tzatziki, Muhamara (made with Brazil nuts as no walnuts in), fried potatoes and mushrooms.

 

[RubyToogood]

Last night I made the saag aloo shepherd's pie from Anna Jones's One. I don't think I'd bother again as it was quite long and complex and not all that really. Not helped by my using red potatoes so the two layers looked the same.

 

[sojourner]

I'm hankering after homebaked ginger biscuits too, so might make some of them if I can be arsed by the time hometime rolls around.

Well I made them, but they turned out to be more like flattish ginger cakes rather than the crisp biccies I had in mind. Once again, a BBC Good Food recipe is a bit shit. Dough was wayyyy too wet! Wasn't even dough, I had to spoon the fucker onto the baking tray.

Oh well. They taste gorgeous, just not crisp at all.

 

[sojourner]

Leek and potato soup with homebaked bread.

Ginger biscuits/flattish ginger cakes! And a nice decaff tea, obv.

 

[RubyToogood]

Tonight and for the rest of December I'll be having leftover saag aloo shepherd's pie.
