What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Skinny Ethel]

Am quite flabberghasted to have witnessed my father demolish his tea. Thats the most his ate in 5 or 6 months by quite some amount. Please pray he makes it to bed without anything attempting to flee his body. God am pensive.

Tonight I achieved a long-held ambition of making my own filet-o-fish. Breaded fish, bun, Heinz garlic sauce cos I can't find any tartar around here, and squares of processed cheese. It was alright.

You can make a quick tartar sauce with mayonnaise, chopped gherkins, chopped capers, and a bit of the pickling vinegar from the gherkin jar - I usually put a bit of mustard in too.
Some versions have chopped hard boiled egg in, but I doubt the filet-o-fish condiment version includes that.
So if you can get all those things, it's easy to knock up a small amount of the stuff

Cayan seasoned chicken breast poached in tomatoe and hummus sauce + added chick peas and kidney beans.

 

[Maggot]

Jamie Oliver's Green macaroni cheese (I refuse to call it mac and cheese).

Regardless of your opinion of Mr Oliver, this is a great recipe.

 

[Silas Loom]

It can’t be as good as the Charlie Bigamist one with bacon bits, though.

 

[Maggot]

Cod fillets poached in a tomatoe, hummus, kidney bean and pea sauce.

I'm sorry, but that sounds disgusting!

I don't eat bacon so I will never find out, but the Jamie Oliver one is a recipe I followed rather than a ready meal.

Jamie Oliver's Green macaroni cheese (I refuse to call it mac and cheese).

Regardless of your opinion of Mr Oliver, this is a great recipe.

I use broccoli stalk in a similar way, it's great in a cheesy dish, and uses up a bit of the plant that's often discarded.

Oh, then it’s definitely going to be nicer than a sordid chiller cabinet substitute. I’d forgotten that Oliver also writes cookbooks.

I think I got it from a TV series he did a few years ago that was all veggie.

I love broccoli stalk. Steamed, stirfried, in a pasta sauce, raw in salads. It's delicious.

Tonight's tea was spaghetti puttanesca for one, and it was fucking perfect if I do say so myself.

 

[Skinny Ethel]

Feel as if my chocolate fountain is about to have a catastrophic failure.

 

[Epona]

I'm making a chicken chasseur, I seem to have pulled the biggest chicken breast ever out of the freezer and I'm recalculating my cooking time accordingly.
Will have with some basmati rice.

I hope that's not a euphemism.

Whaaaa… nice cod fillet poached in homemade tomatoe sauce which has hummus mixed into it with added kidney beans and peas to flesh it out, all baked in the oven. It was bloody lovely and healthy as fuck.

 

[mrsfran]

No, sorry, it does sound a bit grim. Fish + hummus + kidney beans. No.

 

[Skinny Ethel]

I feel like chicken tonight chicken tonight. With chips the Barbarcue version. Fathers very grumpy his refusing to get up and theres people coming with a fall sensitive pendant at 9:30 . His response was tell them i'm dead because theres people in and out of bedroom aĺl morning. Grumpy fukka wont eat chicken tonight because he says its never cooked long enough. He ate the shepherds pie yesterday though after complainin about it.

 

[May Kasahara]

It does sound very healthy. But I think I would have textural issues with it.

However, since its your tea and not mine Numbers I'm glad you enjoyed it Let's not fight on the tea thread, that's what FEBs are for.

 

[Numbers]

Here’s the culprit.

 

[Skinny Ethel]

Looks delicous.

 

[sojourner]

We're on wholewheat penne in tomato and mascarpone sauce, with little gem dressed with balsamic.

Salted caramel and choc cheesecake with blueberries.

 

[Epona]

I think I got it from a TV series he did a few years ago that was all veggie.

This is the recipe I really like with it - I do a veggie version without the anchovies and you can use a vegetarian parmesan style cheese, it's delicious.
I did find it a bit salty first time I did it (I often find this issue with Jamie Oliver's recipes in particular), so on subsequent occasions I've not added any extra salt - I expect a lot depends on how salty the cheese you use is.

Broccoli & anchovy orecchiette | Jamie Oliver pasta recipes

A supercharged pasta dish that's full of flavour! Broccoli & anchovies are just best mates, and mixed with Parmesan and garlic it's a match made in heaven.
