What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[colacubes]

Make a big and very slow cooked Risotto. Chicken, celery, leeks, frankfurters, onion, mushroom, bay leaves, a big Chilli, stock, paprika, parmesan and every else I had lying about. It looks like dinner, lunch and tomorrows dinner at least

Perfect with one small correction

 

[TruXta]

Germanic risotto? Bet the Italians would have a thing or two to say about that.

I'll judge the fuck out of him and he'll like it

 

[TruXta]

But will you judge his food?

I did pasta with fresh parsley, chilli flakes and garlic butter all stirred up together. A simple family favourite.

What kinda pasta?

 

[wtfftw]

Some kind of soup with misc veg from the fridge. It seems to be courgette and spinach. With garlic, onion, chilli and er, nutmeg.

I remember at primary school age going to a friends house and facing a plate including massive bits of broccoli - I was fine with the heads of broc but this was stalks and leaves and everything. I found out I liked it though.

I wouldn't eat peas at a 'friends' house when I was a kid. She brought them to school the next day in a tupperware tub and tried to make me eat them. : (

What a bitch!

Correction?

frankfurter

LOL!

 

[Badgers]

I forgot peas in the Risotto

 

[Looby]

I know!! : D

 

[TruXta]

Quick! Bin it out before anyone notices!

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Penne, but it works well with any pasta. I just happened to have penne.

 

[moose]

Also penne here, baked in tomato/olive/mascarpone sauce with parmesan topping, and salad.

 

[sheothebudworths]

I know!! : D

But, like, WHO SAVED THE PEAS in the first place?
And I mean, was it her mum who suggested taking them in for you to TRY AGAIN ' ' or did your friend just say 'I reckon I'd like to take this box of peas to school mum! Hey, try them again now that they're COLD sparklefish! ' or was it some blatantly weird stealth mission of her own undertaking just to force you to finish them? ('My mum's peas are fucking ACE, you ungrateful cunt! ' )

Aaaaah, whatever.... (((((you )))))

My own nightmare was my friends mum who used to burn everything and she was the one who once plated up *something* with a massive portion of spinach....and she was one of those 'You must eat it ALL!' mums...AND she used to give us shredded wheat for breakfast (and I have never, EVER enjoyed that since - still makes me retch thinking about it )...and I remember just gagging through this whole meal....uuurrrggghhh
It wasn't that I didn't like HER either, cos I did* (even if she did also used to whack us HARD on the head with the hairbrush if we wriggled while she brushed our hair ).

*She used to smell of Rive Gauche and fags...and I thought she smelt BEAUTIFUL ....and she used to run MUCH deeper baths than my mum ever did ....she was just a fucking SHIT cook

Im pretty sure it was a stealth mission. Her mum was really nice as was her older sister. She was a spoilt little princess.

My godmother is a fucking shit cook too. The things we'd find in spag bol when we were kids would make moonsi call the NSPCC.

My other food memory at someone else's house was being made to eat bacon paste sandwiches whilst watching Watership Down. I can still taste sodding bacon paste whenever I hear fucking Bright Eyes. : D

Everything. It was basically whatever was in the fridge with tomatoes. I'm sure I found cabbage. Peas, broccoli, cauliflower...

Hehehe! Awwwwwwww!

 

[madzone]

Lamb meatballs and pasta.

 

[ringo]

I bought another cabbage by accident, so it's cabbage for the rest of the week til both are gone.

Got Claudia Roden's 'Book Of Jewish Food' out last night and was was once again drawn into the massive brilliance of it, so tonight we're having pollock in garlic sauce with potato and cabbage krugel.

 

[sheothebudworths]

I didn't eat my roast last night, so I'm having it for breakfast.

Tonight is EITHER some sort of ham and pasta thing for them and dhal and rice for me OR Pad Thai noodles for all of us....

 

[Biddlybee]

Have a few weeks of GOOD AND SENSIBLE EATING and *then* you can celebrate your first month of marriage with a fun filled WEEKEND OF STODGE!

I'll need more than a few weeks

Had omelettes in the end last night, think it'll be salad tonight - maybe with feta or with tuna
