What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[TruXta]

Salmon and prawn fajitas.

 

[idumea]

I'm having a dilemma. It's a lovely day and toad in the hole may be a bit too heavy. I might just do a rocket/watercess salad and have some grilled chicken breasts with a spicy tomato sauce.

Oh. I see. It's like that, is it.

 

[May Kasahara]

Jacket potatoes with butter and cheese, red cabbage coleslaw, green beans, broccoli, some leftover honey/ginger/soy salmon fillet. Followed by dark chocolate digestives.

I declare 'use up the ends of things in the fridge' day a success

 

[nogojones]

Hit the big time in the reduced section of Sainsburys tonight

Will be having scallops, black pudding, roast fennel and sauteed potatoes on a bed of Cavalo Nero fried up with some olive oil and garlic. Under £4 for the pair of us

 

[kittyP]

Nowt.
Had a huge king prawn, rocket and mayo sarnie at my mums earlier and still stuffed.

 

[Greebo]

Butter chicken, boiled basmati rice, kidney beans

 

[Addy]

I love a makhani (butter) chicken... you got a recipe for me to look at?

 

[purenarcotic]

Jerk chicken, rice & peas and coleslaw. Fucking lush.

 

[Voley]

Pilchards on toast. Bloody lovely it was, too. I must have this more often.

Sorry Addy, this is one of the few readymade things I can safely eat. It's the Waitrose version, and AFAIK contains nothing which an Indian cook wouldn't be happy to use. BTW they also do a makhani chicken (with a slightly different recipe) which I can't have - how stupid is that?

 

[Addy]

Gutted!
I have a couple of butter chicken recipes, but I like to see common denominators in recipes then make my own take on it iyswim.

[sheothebudworths]

Dunno....not sure if I'm going to have to feed my daughter or not cos she's got a toothache so we're off to the dentists in an hour.....and if she has to have any work done (or more specifically, an injection) I know she'll be feeling a bit too anxious/clingy/freaked out afterwards to go and stay at her friend's as planned ....would have made a *fishy thing* for me and my boy but might have to be soup now instead..... ...I might get some Heinz tomato soup on the way back if needs be, tbf

I'm having wine and beer first either way. :-|

 

[TitanSound]

Oh. I see. It's like that, is it.

Yes, it is

I didn't end up having either. I had cheese on toast instead.

But rest assured, tonight's the night.

 

[idumea]

Pics or it didn't happen.

 

[TitanSound]

You're not the first person that's asked for a picture of my sausage...............s

 

[Thimble Queen]

Tonight we're headed to a Kazakstani restaurant. It has a pond and a bridge and belly dancing.

 

[idumea]

Tonight I'm headed to the Albert, so I think a dinner of beer and crisps is the likely outcome.

Might see you later then, after I've scoffed down my beef and leek casserole.

[QueenOfGoths]

Lamb Curry, which I made on Wednesday, plus Tarka Dhal which I didn't (i bought it from M&S this morning ) and rice

 

[sojourner]

Chicken Sylheti and riiiiiice - maybe those tiny pakoras int fridge if they haven't gone off by now.

Wine, obv, and some lovely dark choccy with orange bits in it for afters

 

[wtfftw]

I think I'm going out again. I'm doing quite well at spending my money for the fortnight in 3 days.

Last night I ended up with a byron burger - all well and good but I could've been eating anything as I'd already had seven vodkas and two jamesons and had most of a bottle of wine with the food. Very nice onion rings.

I'll be in there from 7/8, must say goodbye before you leave for far off shores!

Cool, I'll likely be there from 8 or 9 onwards.

 

[Hellsbells]

pizza hut apparently Their unlimited salad option is appealing but not much else. Especially after having scoffed my usual stressed friday afternoon packet of biscuits

 

[crustychick]
