What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Monte]

That's suberb.

I don't think I've ever got to a point where I've thought "I've had enough roast dinners recently, I don't want another one"
Bloody love it! And you've reminded me that I bought a swede cheap somewhere and that needs to be used - roast or mashed is excellent.
Got a chicken on order which I will roast completely plain at the weekend and share with the kittens.

Working in a pub or restaurant in the month before Christmas can put you off roast dinners.
I've not had to do it recently but it can be pretty soul destroying.

It took me 90 mins start to finish and I ended up with a pile of washing up but I made enough for 3 or 4 meals.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Oh for sure, before Covid N used to work in restaurants (KP/kitchen assistant/low level chef type stuff) and I was a bit worried he'd go off roast spuds after a number of Sunday lunch shifts!

Roast dinners aren't that long to prep or cook (unless you're feeding a large number and have a joint or bird that needs a long cooking time, even then it doesn't need much doing to it, just bung it in and leave it to cook and remember to put the other components in the oven at the right timings) but the washing up from it is hell

Spaghetti is cooked sat resting in the sauce and meatballs. Not ready for it yet. Bunged up nasally and my ears are knackered and having to have stereo turned quite a bit up more than usual so i can hear it.

It made a great breakfast this morning.

First set of UK friends have arrived for MrShakes 60th so we are out for seaside drinks and all you eat sushi with them.. my liver is retreating in fright!

Sorry you're not feeling so good. Hope you regain your appetite.

Last night we ordered curry. I had chicken Ceylon, coconut rice, mushroom bhaji and naan.

There was enough left for lunch today which was lush.

I hope it's not covid, for some reason that always fucks my ears as a really early symptom before I start feeling unwell
GWS

 

[Epona]

Spaghetti puttanesca.

I love that, a nice tasty but uncomplicated/not too rich meal ideal after a few days of overdoing it, will have to have one soon I think

 

[LeytonCatLady]

A beefgrill with spuds and veg.

 

[Skinny Ethel]

Lemsip and a chicken parmo.

Leftover curry and rice.

 

[May Kasahara]

I was meant to be meeting a friend for dinner but she's had to cancel, so not sure now. Might make a big curry

 

[krtek a houby]

Leftover roast chicken in a curry to be served on naan

 

[sojourner]

Mushroom stroganoff, brown rice, green beans.

Dirty milk chocolate caramel bar for afters.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Chocolate and sour cherry bread and butter pudding made from the xmas panettones

 

[cesare]

We're having that ground peppercorn chicken curry again, we loved it last time. Having with chapattis.

I still have those melt in the middle chocolate puds so if I've room, one of those with Alpro chocolate dessert.

 

[weltweit]

Lamb and ale hot pot with potato, carrots, mushrooms and parsnips.

Followed probably by a pot of Ambrosia rice pudding and a pot of Ambrosia Devon custard

 

[UrbaneFox]

I've just sent out for chicken shish, falafel, and mezze, which should last the weekend. They throw in rice and bread and salad and sauces.

It's my new resolution - streamline life even more.

 

[newme]

I just ordered a large takeaway and am already wanting food before it like a petulant, well me I suppose. Nearly added so much extra on the end like that would make it arrived immediately despite there being loads. Now I'm in the kitchen desperately trying not to eat leftover lasagne. I did last eat yesterday tho.

 

[mrsfran]

Sausages, mash and broccoli.

 

[tony.c]

Prawn makhani and pilau rice.
