[jastons]

First bbq of the year planned for tonight - sausages, burgers, corn on the cob and homemade coleslaw. Can't wait.

[DasNutNock]

Roastless Sunday Roast. Basically, a roast dinner with all the sides everyone wants (stuffing, Yorkshire’s, bread sauce etc) and a pack of sausages in place of the roasting joint.

I bloody love bread sauce.

I bloody love bread sauce.

It really does transform a great meal into a glorious one.

Keralan Scallop Molee

Garlic, onion, chilli and ginger base, with turmeric, cumin and mustard seeds. Coconut milk. Spinach, curry leaves, fresh coriander and whole piccolo tomatoes. Wine vinegar to taste. Throw in the scallops near the end, they only need a minute or two. Season abundantly.

Home made Chilli con carne - bloody lovely it was too.. and have more tomorrow.

[djclipz]

A lamb moussaka with a side salad. It is one my favourite comfort foods and one of the first things I've bothered to cook from scratch for the last week.

Paneer and chickpea curry on the menu tonight.

i'll never understand salad with lasagna, mussaka and such stuff. to each their own, but you guys are wrong uns


oven baked feta with onions, olives, chilli peppers and rosemary (all wrapped in tin foil).
5 minutes to prep, oven does all the work (~15 minutes at 160-180°) and it's great. some toasted bread and there you go, cheap and quick.

It makes it 'look' healthy, lol. But really I just like a salad and had no crusty rolls etc. However, I absolutely need to add an accompaniment, just looks weird on it's own.

I made spinach & ricotta lasagna on friday:

1 pack ricotta
1 pack stilton
2 packs mozarella
60g parmesan
white sauce (850ml full cream milk, 50g butter, 50g flour)

Very tasty but I'm not sure I've seen a more calorifically dense meal.

you didn't even put the spinach in, that's probably why

We've been using that for ages, I wouldn't know the difference.

[FreeWheeling]

Working from Home today so done a 6 hour ragu with fresh egg pasta
also working from home tomorrow so quaffed about 5 beers

[-DL-]

Father-in-law gave us a large lump of locally produced belly pork, and I plopped it in a roasting tin with a bottle of doom bar, (also from the father-in-law, left over from what he brought over Saturday when they visited) french whole-grain mustard, few cloves of garlic, spring onions and new potatoes.

Whacked it in the oven at 140 for 3 hours, and served it up with crunchy broccoli and cauli.

My god it was nice.

[Monkey Mike]

Sounds amazing Dan.

Chilli con carne and rice for me.
