What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[sojourner]

I can't remember, but they had Cumberland in the name somewhere. They tasted weirdly like sponge...for some reason when I was eating them I kept thinking they were the texture of lungs, or mold, and it put me right off.

Today I cooked an incredibly healthy lentil-parsnip-carrot stew...for which I have no appetite for, as I spent the crucial 'leave it to simmer and develop flavour stage' in bed eating Camembert. adulthood ftw

Try the Cauldron Lincolnshires next time - they are really nice

Tonight we have the fella's son round for tea, so am gonna do an oven-baked porcini and thyme risotto, with lashings of parmesan (and red wine!)

5th Anniversary dinner - sirloin steaks, cream & potato gratin, steamed broccoli, granary loaf, chocolate melt puddings & double cream, champagne.

They were probably Cauldron Cumberland sausages, which tbh I think are nearly as good as the Lincolnshire ones (if not a bit peppery). How did you cook them? Ime brushing with oil and cooking in the oven is best, but avoid over cooking or leaving to stand too long before you eat them

I fry them in a frying pan in vegetable oil for ten mins - perfect saussies, and then you have added lushness of bits of saussy in the oil when you fry the eggs

 

[mr steev]

They never seem to turn out great when I fry them... maybe it's cos I usually cook them from frozen

 

[fakeplasticgirl]

another of those innocent veg pots - they're not even nice but I'm sooo lazy!

Ah, that might be it - I always do them from chilled

They are sooo much nicer than the McCartney ones though. Although I do LOVE her country pies, and the mushroom and ale pies

We're just in from our arvo out and are cold through to the bones ....not really chicken/salad wrap weather ....so my son's gone to the chip shop for sausage and chips for them and I'll have beans on toast later.

 

[foamy]

Three course dinner at a modern Italian type restaurant for my m-I-ls 60th, can't remember exactly what I orders but think its arancini for starters and espresso & ice cream for pud.

Yesterday I pulled my socks up and went and bought chorizo for the paella which my sister helped us to eat (I think it was really 4 generous portions between the three of us)

 

[Badgers]

so my son's gone to the chip shop for sausage and chips for them

Does your son favour the plain, battered or saveloy sausage?
