What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Johnny Vodka]

Shoulder of lamb and shallots stewed in white wine, honey and cayenne powder. Was meant to throw some brandy in it, but I drank it all the other night ( ) so threw in a few raisins as a 'substitute'. Not sure if they do what the brandy was meant to, but it's damn good anyway.

 

[Cheesypoof]

Picnicking has been agreed at somewhat late notice. Thanks to the veg box I have made

• coleslaw with kohl rabi, carrot and 'wet garlic'

what is 'wet garlic?'

 

[Cheesypoof]

Irish salmon and hake roasted with garlic. Boiled new potatoes, mushroom sauce and mushy peas. Hazelbrook farm vanilla icecream and raspberries for dessert (with sprinkling of oat bran)

 

[Greebo]

risotto

 

[Firky]

I just made a stir fry out of stuff from the cupboards and left over veg. I am quite impressed how good it was for stuff thrown together from scraps.

Honey, chilli, garlic, ginger, fish sauce, sesame oil, coriander and a drop of rice vinegar all thrown together with peas, beans, brocolli, pak choi and shizzle

 

[foamy]

Tonight's tea was a hit with everyone: homemade minted lamb burgers with beet root mayo, new potatoes and fine green beans.
Ketchup for finger dipping for the tiddler.
Gin for pudding for me

 

[Addy]

Braised steak & onions with mash & yorkshire puds.
Gravy made from the meat juices/stock.

 

[Thimble Queen]

I had patatas bravas (sp?), bombas and a lemon fanta. FIT.

 

[Part 2]

Salad Nicoise with a nice big tuna steak and sourdough toast.

 

[sojourner]

I think I'm gonna do penne arrabiata. Totally broken from the festie's festivities, so going home early for a sleep first

 

[sojourner]

Actually, scrub that, just remembered I've got some veggie meatballs int freezer, so it'll be either spaghetti with them, or Moroccan meatballs and couscous. And wine.

what is 'wet garlic?'

It's the first crop of garlic harvested before the bulb and cloves are fully formed.
Looks like a baby leek (middle specimen in this picture, between spring onions and leeks)

 

[Voley]

I'm making a huge vat of chicken jalfrezi tonight with a whole kilo of chicken. Totally skint and need something to last me the week.

 

[TruXta]

Left-over pizza from last night with some salad and shizzle.

 

[zenie]

Fish and chips at a mates I think

 

[Looby]

We've had chilli for the past 2 days (rice Sunday, jacket spuds Monday) and when I got home, Mr s has taken mince out for spag bol. I really don't want mince 3 days in a row.

I might just have dirty pasta (pasta with ketchup and Parmesan : o )

 

[moonsi til]

Veggie Spag bol with garlic bread and wine or beer?

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Nice chicken summat.

I invited a couple of street guys back for eats and use of a spare bed, but they have yet to arrive. Hassle from police for just being vagabonds may have spoiled their appetite. Told they weren't allowed to sit in a public space. Cunts. It is Corpus Christi - Granada holiday week. The streets must be kept clean. Why do I detest religion so much?

Anyway, one guy knows where my place is, so hopefully they will appear.

Peppercorns, cumin seeds, finely chopped garlic, one chillie and Two onions fried in a little olive oil for 20 minutes at a low heat.

Chicken pieces given 10 minutes either side on a high heat.

Add red peppers, thyme, oregano, carrots and finely sliced lemon zest. Poor in about Two pints of water. Add salt and leave to simmer on a very low heat with a couple of handfuls of chopped tomatoes.

That is a far as I have got. May serve with chips, but waiting to see who shows. Been simmering for about 30 minutes so far.

 

[colacubes]

Sausage & lentil stew type thing with tiger bread for mopping up

 

[avu9lives]

I had a gammon steak wiv cauliflower cheese on top and sum aspara gus

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Have the boards borked, or is it just me?

 

[Shirl]

Wolfie's home made chicken, ham and leek pie. It's in the oven now

 

[Stanley Edwards]

OK. Seems it is just Opera.

Strange. On threads in certain forums everything is pushed left of centre with a huge pixilated smiley in some posts

No sign of smiley blown up here. What have I done? In every thread with a smiley posted it comes up massive puching the screen all over the place (only in Opera).

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Opera seems to have fixed itself.

I have added a few more herbs.

 

[Biddlybee]

Creamy mushroom pasta, maybe with garlic bread for a few extra carbs.

 

[Stanley Edwards]

The boys have turned up. I am doing chips with King Edwards.

 

[Greebo]

Bratwurst and the usual

 

[Looby]

No parmesan so no dirty pasta. Didn't really fancy anything else we had in so we ordered pizza.

I always regret it. Really expensive and not all that. : (

 

[Kanda]

Rib Eye, Dolphinnoses, peas

 

[idumea]

Veggie three bean chili with garlic bread.
