What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[kittyP]

I ended up making a coconut-y, curry-y laksa-like stew/soup with the chicken tits, smallish shrimps and greens served over udon noodles. No dessert, but had hot apple cider with calvados in it afterwards

I want all of thar right now!!!!

 

[Greebo]

Green caldo

 

[kittyP]

Jacket spuds in oven to have with left over roast chuck, salad, coleslaw, cous cous and home made (ultra garlicy) garlic bread.

Only thing is, housemate got a sushi starter which was lush but I am not massively hungry now

 

[Voley]

A proper bubble-away-for-a-good couple-of-hours bolognese. Penne with it.

 

[twentythreedom]

Pikeylodger's just come back from Sainsburys with 2 fatarse badboy rib-eye steaks

Got spuds, so will do home-made chips, with fried onion, shrooms and peas Hooray!!

Any accompaniment?

 

[Badgers]

Any accompaniment?

Butter and black pepper goes without saying yeah?

Cheese (two parts mature cheddar, one part red leicester), chicken, coleslaw, rocket, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and homemade sweet chilli sauce.

Washed down with an acceptable red

I started the original years ago, because I am obsessed with food. Countless incarnations later, and it's still one of the most popular threads. That's why I love this place - cos we're ALL fucking obsessed with food

On that note, I fancy making something creamy, garlicky, French I guess you could say, with quorn chicken, peppers, onions, possibly green beans, and rice toneet.

And then a fuckton of mini rolls

Last night when I was drifting off to sleep I thought that I'd do kedgeree for tea tonight, but I forgot to take the smoked haddock out of the freezer this morning .
So tonight I think it'll be tofu stir fry with rice.

 

[Greebo]

caldo

 

[foamy]

Last night was a chicken and chorizo traybake flavoured with orange and thyme
Tonight: rice noodle stir fry with prawns, red onion, broc and coconut& lemongrass sauce.
Mince pie for pud

 

[moonsi til]

Baked potato, mature cheddar and a shop bought tray of ratatouille. No wine tonight as sank a bottle to easy to myself last night.

 

[Hellsbells]

dunno I made 2 massive lentil lasagnes this afternoon but think they're going straight in the freezer. Really dont feel like lasagne tonight. Got some tuna that needs using. Dont feel like that either. Argh! Wish i didn't live alone and had someone else cooking dinner for me.

 

[madzone]

Mum's air freshener quiche, new potatoes, peas and sweetcorn.

 

[purenarcotic]

The wife is making pancakes. Because she's immense.

Mum's air freshener quiche, new potatoes, peas and sweetcorn.

That sounds errr, vile (the quiche, not the veg)

Jerk lamb, potato cakes and coleslaw for me. With some milka with daim for pud. And wine, cos being on strike is hard work

[Y_I_Otter]

Penang-style goat curry on egg noodles, Southeast Asian-inspired marinated cucumber, green salad, store-bought lime achar. No dessert, but canned-peach lassi with it.

 

[twentythreedom]

Mum's air freshener quiche

wtf??? like parma violets or something?

 

[Greebo]

More like containing so many eggs it'll cause the air freshener to be used.

 

[purenarcotic]

They were tasty.

 

[moose]

Yet another chippy tea (well, C&O pie) due to failure to leave work at civilised time.

 

[Kidda]

Im a reet good tosser

 

[mrsfran]

I had an Indian take-away - chicken dhansak, sag aloo and pilau rice. It was well nice. And, very pleasingly, I had a tupperware container with 3 compartments that exactly fitted the leftovers in so I can freeze it in a neat, compartmentalised way for another time. That kind of shit can make my day.

 

[Quartz]

Today's tea was also my breakfast as I'm on the night shift. I had a cheese & tomato submarine followed by an egg banjo.

 

[Detroit City]

tuna sandwich and some soup

It's handy for ideas.
Tonight I did pasta quills in a pork mince, mushroom, onion, tomato and chilli sauce.

Mine too, and I love those containers. Consider doing something like this if you use the same take away with any regularity:

When I was living on my own in Surrey, British Columbia I was a loyal (three times per week, minimum) patron of a nearby North Indian place. They packaged their stuff in the standard plastic pots and styrofoam take-out containers. I felt that using their services as often as I was was adding too much useless junk to the landfill. So I went to the dollar store and bought a half-dozen of the sort of compatmentalised containers you describe and dropped them off at the restaurant. Thereafter, when I phoned in my order they'd put it in those. The upside of that was if I only ordered only one or two things (I'm capable of cooking basmati all on my own) they'd put other things in the empty sections of the container at no extra charge, like their killer in-house carrot achar or some stray bit of bhindi bhaji or saag aloo they had no other use for. Good for the environment and damn good for the frugally-inclined.
