What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Fez909]

A couple of times, yes, after the usual omission of onion and substituting extra garlic etc. It's more or less quite a wet vegetable curry and you add hardboiled eggs in the last half hour to warm up and take on the flavours.

Nice one, but why omit onion? Allergy or dislike...or?

 

[Firky]

Buffalo steak.

 

[Biddlybee]

Chicken was fine, had a creamy tarragon sauce with pasta

 

[Voley]

Buffalo steak.

That's always been quite nice when I've had it.

 

[Firky]

That's always been quite nice when I've had it.

It was a bit dry, TBH. I also felt sorry for the shaggy cow it came off

 

[May Kasahara]

Cheesy pasta bake with broccoli in it.

Until we get our kitchen stuff unpacked and some actual foodstuffs in the house it'll be takeaways every night. Pizza tonight I think.

I like to see moving house as a oppotunity to have guilt free by money sense at least takeaway bonanza.

I refried the remains of last night's rice/chicken/lentil mix with some olive oil and pre-grilled spicy pork and chorizo sausages. So lush.

Not all bad...my Jewish mother (will explain when i see you ) made me turkey and veg stir fry with brown rice, and quite a lot of chilli

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Chip and fish finger butties with ketchup.

Allergy (migraine trigger - aka extremely cheap and legal way of altering headspace).

Biddlybee - I'm with zenie - I feed myself AND the kids cooked chicken well into the week after doing one on a Saturday/Sunday without worrying about it, as standard (although I do realise you'd have to take extra care). It's half the point of doing the roast, eh!

Firky - I've had buff steak loads of times in Nepal and it was never dry! Big, fat, moist, tender, tasty fuckers....OMG! Pricey here though!

I took a chicken breast and a pot of homemade tomato and basil sauce out of the freezer last night, fried the sliced chicken with some thyme and did a pasta bake with chicken in the middle and layers of mozzarella and some green beans on the side.

The kids liked it but it tasted of MASSIVE MEH to me so I saved my portion for my son to have in his packed lunch and had a smoked salmon, cream cheese and cress sandwich and bag of beef Space Raiders instead, which was much more what I felt like.

The kids had scones that my daughter made in after school club (slightly flat ) with my mum's apple and damson jam and squirty cream....and I had a tiny bit of the chocolate brownies I made for their lunches (which was overcooked, so chocolate cake ).

 

[Biddlybee]

It's been so long since I cooked a roast chicken I wasn't sure

 

[Fez909]

Allergy (migraine trigger - aka extremely cheap and legal way of altering headspace).

That's a shame; onions are in everything!

Egg curry was nice. Would definitely make it again.

 

[twentythreedom]

I've had takeaway pizza 3 nights in a row now

I might just be really fuckin rank though, tbf

*shrug* I'm long since used to it, and there's stuff they're either not in at all or not needed in. Doesn't stop me occasionally whingeing about it though.

Glad to hear it.

You're gonna have to go for the BIG 7 now, 23 ( <-that's correct eh, '23'? I know we've had a small debate about it previously but I can't recall the outcome )!!
It's like a once in a lifetime opportunity...and you've almost passed the half way point now

 

[twentythreedom]

Please, call me "twenty" I will plan for pizza tomorrow and report back

 

[twentythreedom]

My grandfather ate nothing else but this for the last 30 years of his 98 year existence. Hardcore Scottish coal miner, he was.

 

[TruXta]

Whatever we have tonight it'll be the first home-cooked meal in our new gaff. FYI the first meal was a take-away pizza last night. Any suggestions folks? Before anyone says it - no I won't be making curry nor fish&chips.

 

[idumea]

I'm getting back late tonight after bouldering, so will be having boring but quick pasta and mackerel and sweetcorn tonight.

Bouldering? You on hard labour?

I'm starting to want alcohol. I think it's cos the first festie of the year is rearing its beautiful head. That, and I'm just gagging for a drink really.
