What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[sojourner]

My lass made a big red pepper and tomato soup yesterday but me and the fella fancied Chinese, so we're having some tonight instead.

I'm not mad keen on it just being a soup though, not substantial enough for tea, so I'm gonna pour it over a load of conchiglie, and smother with some creamy Lancashire cheese

Oh no we're not - she's just eaten it all for her lunch

Right, fucking something else then. Pasta and bloody sauce or sommat

 

[sheothebudworths]

Haddock fishcakes (didn't have them the other night after filling up on leftover chinese and crisps etc ) for me and my boy and fishfingers for my girl, with some of the wedges left from yesterday and some oven chips to bulk it out, asparagus and tenderstem broccoli.
Raspberry yoghurt and nectarines for pudding.

 

[sojourner]

Can't be arsed. Beans on toast it is. Fella's off out at rehearsal anyway.

 

[BoatieBird]

Jacket spud - maybe with beans n cheese, maybe with tuna and capers.
Big pile of salad on the side

 

[coley]

I,m cooking,the boss is bad abed, something involving tins and a frying pan

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Pork casserole with *roast potatoes.

Garlic, onion, leek, carrot, tomatoes with orgegano and coriander. Whole black pepper corns, olive oil. Pinch of salt. All in a single pot on high for 30 minutes, then simmered for an hour and a half after adding water and tomato frito. Covered with foil.

Delicious.

*in olive oil with water and lemon juice.

Except I'm leaving out the pork and chicken stock and instead I'm substituting cubes of tofu browned in Kimchi.

 

[Orang Utan]

you take your own wine you fool!

i want your tonight dinner

are you allowed?

 

[Thimble Queen]

I made a chorizo hash but then decided to add a cam of tomato and a load of adzuki and black eye beans. Served with rice

 

[Callie]

are you allowed?

of course youre allowed?! train picnic! like a hotel room picnic but on a train

 

[Orang Utan]

of course youre allowed?! train picnic! like a hotel room picnic but on a train

you're not on coaches and planes

 

[Callie]

are you questioning my knowledge of travel drinking?

 

[killer b]

pulled pork bap. attempting to make cracking with the skin atm...

 

[Orang Utan]

are you questioning my knowledge of travel drinking?

no, just explaining the reasoning for my assumption that you can't bring booze on a train

 

[colacubes]

no, just explaining the reasoning for my assumption that you can't bring booze on a train

Why would they have invented those little cans of gin and tonic if it wasn't for train drinking? Those and/or train Stella must always be drunk on train journeys of distance

I had chicken, lentil & spinach curry for dinner. It was tasty but the sauce could have done with being a bit thicker.

 

[killer b]

are you allowed?

of course you're allowed. train journeys are one of the few occasions when it's acceptable to crack a bottle of wine in the morning.

 

[mango5]

Caramelised chicory, tomato and onion tarte tatin, broccoli, mash

 

[gentlegreen]

Stirfry - with a little too much emphasis on the "fry".
All posh ingredients - red onion, white cabbage, tomatoes, pointy pepper, huge amount of mushrooms... shoyu, tahini.. washed down with Aldi's finest Fleurie.

The sooner I get my salad sprouting going the better - it will have to warm up first - since I chuck them in raw at the end.

 

[Callie]

i changed my mind about the soup and had a cheese sammich n 6 mugs of tea. early night for pudding.

 

[Espresso]

Thai-ish sort of chicken thing, lots of noodles and lemongrass and chilli and garlic and coriander and fish sauce and lime juice, then a tin of decidedly non-Thai tomatoes. Very fresh and zingy.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

I did pasta with sliced peppers in a parsley/butter/garlic/chilli dressing.

 

[Orang Utan]

the train was too crowded to push the trolley through

tonight i am having a ribeye steak....dauphinoise potatos...and salad

that was fucking awesome, mainly cos i tried a new way of eating that i saw on masterchef. the way of eating everything at once. so this is what i've been missing all of these years! and it was me who thought everyone else was weird! i wonder what else i have been wrong about!

 

[killer b]

i had a ribeye steak last night. it were alright.

pulled pork was totally delicious guys.

 

[Scarlette]

Roast chicken with dauphinoise potatoes and wilted spinach. Was lovely. And walnut whips for dessert.

 

[killer b]

i approve of all the dauphinoise spuds.

 

[moonsi til]

I have never had dolphinnose potatoes..

And welcome OU to the world of salad..
