What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[MrsArcanum]

Son is currently making a mint chocolate tart to have after Sunday Dinner (lamb this week).

Includes

Blue Curacao Syrup (Orange)
Mojito Mint (spearmint)
Menthe Vert (peppermint)​

Will be interesting to see how the flavours work together.

The agar-agar bit went wrong (too solid) and the ganache was not thick enough. Pastry was good.

It looks strangely medical, but did it taste good?

Roast lamb, roast potatoes, sweetcorn, carrots, green beans, gravy. Lemon tart.

It tasted okay, but the blue bit was somewhat too solid to eat much. Apparently it is a Japanese recipe, but had too much agar-agar (suspect 6g would be enough, the recipe said 25g).

Poached salmon, wholemeal pasta, red pepper, scrapings from a Deliveroo mezze from some time last week.
3 tangerines

Made an experimental spicy pasta stew thing to use up various veg. Was pretty unsure about it, but it turned out well.

Morrisons badly let me down today (they're usually really reliable) so I am without the leeks, broccoli, and savoy cabbage that I wanted as the steamed veg section (plus a few other meals in the days to come ofc) of a mini-roast tonight.
How can they have run out of so many veg? The service is declining a bit I reckon, never used to happen.

So I'm having a roast chicken leg with roast spuds, cauliflower and carrots. And gravy ofc. I might do some peas or spinach out of the freezer so I have some green veg in there.
