Off Topic Distancing special - what are you eating tonight?

Pre-footy dinner tonight from the Roasting Tin.

Miso covered chicken, aubergines and shallots with ginger, chili flakes and sesame seeds. With a lime, sesame and soy dressing. Served with rice and spring onion and an ice cold lemonade.

Bloody tasty, highly recommend this one.

 

Something a little simpler tonight but by God it was tasty!

Loaded jackets with cod, peas, mayonnaise, American mustard and Cayenne pepper and topped with cheddar and a pinch more Cayenne. Served with lemon-butter enfused baked beans. And of course, the now obligatory can of ice-cold Irn Bru.

Try it!

 

Not sure of the irn brew but the rest looks good
This is what I had Porco alentejana, pork and clam stew

 

Mutter Paneer curry with kachumber and chapatis, from the Dishoom cookbook ( father's day gift from lil' Noah )

 

That looks real good

 

Mate, it was bloody gorgeous.

First dish I've tried from the book so far but if they all turn out as good I will be recommending it.

 

The Black Daal recipie in that book is absolutely sensational and on the easier side to make, as long as you're around to stir it every so often as it simmers.

 

Bank holiday nosh for the family -

Pork and pear cassoulet with onion, sage, cream and cider served with crusty bread.
( really nice, recommend ).



Followed by Lemon posset and shortbread biscuits. ( Bloody gorgeous. Starting to really enjoy this chef-y malarkey )

 

Hope it tastes better than it looks mate .

No offence

 

It certainly did mate! Quite difficult to get a great picture with it sitting in the creamy sauce

 

Made a huge bowl of chilli for us tonight.

Went out with my pal this afternoon, for a wee spot of fishing....anyone like trout?

 

Fresh roast trout with buttery new potatoes.........oh yes

That's a good catch there Steels....all yours?

 

Halfers - total of 25lb, not bad for three hours!

 

Pah……Can’t beat my dinner of a cheese slice sandwich and Lidl’s own brand cheddars…….after a 12 hour shift and 4 mile run straight after it’s all I could be arsed with making

 

Feel like I'm the only guy eating/posting on this thread

Late Sunday lunch - Garlic Naan toasties filled with mozzarella, mature cheddar, spring onion, green chilli, coriander and Mango chutney. Served with watercress and extra chutney.

 

The new job is keeping me out of the kitchen - not getting home til late so mostly quick dinners (pasta, chilli, curries etc).

Making a nice gammon joint today with mashed potatoes, pureed carrots, tenderstem brocolli and a nice onion gravy.

Got an Aldi special for afters, Sicilian lemon and raspberry roulade - they are double yummy!

 

Aldi roulades are very nice.

We had one last Christmas, can't remember the exact sort but pretty sure it included bourbon and maple syrup. It was VERY nice.

 

Celebrating my Mum’s 82nd birthday, she’s round feasting with the family on lamb shawarma, couple of butterflied legs of lamb which had 24 hours marinading in a paste of lemon juice, olive oil, ground cardamon, ground coriander, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, salt and pepper, my daughter made a fantastic Greek yoghurt dressing with garlic, lemon juice, coriander, cucumber and pomegranate seeds, all bunged together in wraps with shredded lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, avocado and hot sauce as desired.

A hit. Also nice weather meant we could eat outside. And it’s not a Roasting Tin recipe!

 

That sounds very nice.

When you inviting all the not606 foodies round?

 

Whenever Steels is within dinner range……..this one was seriously good, don’t know why (except for the need to plan in advance) I don’t do it more often. Both kids pretty hungover and they finally perked up over the meal.
