What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[sheothebudworths]

I made a veg soup yesterday to have today with garlic bread....BUT we've got the dentist after school tomorrow, so I'm thinking it'd be better to leave it for then cos A. it'll be quick to do since we'll be back later and B. well it's the dentist so soup is a safe bet, whatever happens....

So that means that tonight, my son would have to make the burgers he was going to make tomorrow, but that depends on the shopping turning up reasonably early so maybe I'll just let Tescos decide.

Got some chocolate and caramel mousses for them and low fat raspberry mousses for me so those for pudding.

Dunno. Tesco delivery coming tonight so the fridge is my oyster.
Maybe tofu stir fry with noodles.
Maybe something a bit more hearty.

Cheese

Either Japanese chicken curry or lightly spiced carrot soup depending on which I can be arsed to make and what Mr.QofG's tooth - well jaw as he had an extraction yesterday - will cope with.

Fucking hell, glad I didn't look at the thread yesterday. Someone let the drama llama run free in it My tea wasn't very interesting anyway, I had marmite on toast when I got back from boxing.

Anyway, tonight is buffalo burgers oven chips and coleslaw. I may go crazy and have the burger in a bun with some cheese and a gherkin. I'll see how crazy I feel when I get in later

I thought buffalos were just about extinct?

 

[Badgers]

I thought buffalos were just about extinct?

I thought that numbers were low but they are okay now?

Nope.

 

[TruXta]

Protected status I believe. Obviously I'm talking about the American Bison, not other creatures called buffalos.

And tbh the burgers are from the farmers market and I'm not sure selling endangered species is very on message for them

 

[Orang Utan]

they farm buffalo in the uk for mozzarella

They are bread in captivity I thought?

 

[TruXta]

Nope.

Well, are they American Bison? Or African Buffalo?

 

[TruXta]

Poor things. Do they go soggy in the rain?

 

[colacubes]

I have no idea as I am currently not sitting in the same location as my fridge. However, I will be sure to provide an update on my return. However, as they are farmed in the UK for meat/milk I'm not particularly sure that it matters.

Cool, be interested to know.

 

[Orang Utan]

the buffalo we eat and milk is the african buffalo, not the bison.
american bison breed in 'the wild' although mainly (or entirely) on private property in the USA.

Interesting. I've never had it before and just thought it looked interesting when I was at the farmers market. Tbh it never crossed my mind that it might be endangered But if it's african it ain't. I will double-check later though.

 

[sheothebudworths]

Water buffalo, isn't it?

They do massive great big buff steak *sizzlers* in Kathmandu...fucking lovely! I was always under the impression it was the same buffalo they've started farming here.

 

[Orang Utan]

You get the same buffalo in India too - huge black beasts with giant horns

 

[sojourner]

Fucking knackered so it's pizza tonight - will see what Tesco has on offer later

 

[sheothebudworths]

Yes but they don't EAT them there!

I almost got charged by one, once - very, very scary!

 

[foamy]

Last night I tried a new pork stir fry recipe with ginger and honey which was v. nice (although I put in loads of extra veg)
Tonight I was going to make a chicken / orange /soy stir fry but now I remember it's burns night Im tempted to open the canned haggis that the boy brought back from Scotland....

Baked beans

How much did he want?

[craigxcraig]

on a whim I picked up a couple of plaice fillets from Sopers in Nunhead and have no idea how to cook!

I'm thinking, the easier way to cook is to bag them in silver foil, bit of butter and some parsley - or?

I was going to have some puy lentils on the side but couldn't find so doing reg green lentils with maybe some rocket on the side?

Or any other suggestions

 

[sojourner]

Dill's always nice with fish but you've probably not got any of that. I'd always stick a smidge of garlic in too.

 

[sheothebudworths]

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear............
