Slow roast belly pork with tons of crackling, baked potatoes and braised cabbage.

That sounds sinful

It was both sinful and heavenly

Teriyaki chicken with sesame noodles and mangetout.

Tonight we're having a mince pie with lots of veg in it and potatoes and salad.

It's quite hot here today and that's more of a wintery meal but I just really felt like a pie!

Last night was chicken savoyarde and cauliflower polenta.

Jool's Favourite Beef Stew from "Jamie's Dinners". Seriously wintery goodness!

More roast chicken this evening. With roasted tomatoes, mushrooms and red peppers and some heaty-up in the oven baguettes.

I had gammon steak with cheese melted on top, carrots, peas, cauliflower and mashed potato and black pudding (the nicest combo ever!)

Loopy

I had a salmon & pasta bake - which was full of cream:eek: but god it tasted damn good...

I made Spaggeti and Meat Balls. For the meatballs I sweated off half an onion and some garlic on the pan, then added it cold to a bowl of mince beef with a beaten egg, some parsley and thyme and rolled it into about 25 little balls. Browned them on the pan and then added them to the sauce (Jar of Roma Bolognese) and served it with spaggeti...

I finally made this on Saturday night, was really tasty, had it with baby potatoes, spinach and green beans.

Starter was homemade tomato soup with a dollop of creme fraiche and some chives with homemade parmesan and sundried tomato bread. Delicious and kinda healthy!

I'm having carrot and parsnip soup with hot scones and rolls just out of the oven. The rest of my family are having stew.

Mine's gonna be either grilled tofu in a garlic and red-wine vinegar marinade with fried onions, mushrooms, garlic and tomatoes, or a big bowl of porridge with peanut butter and banana mixed in, depending how hungry I am when I get home

Pasta with shrimps, peas, chilli and garlic. Fast and cheap, but really tasty.

Big free range chicken, jointed (first time I'd ever done that and it was surprisingly easy) and roasted with lemon and garlic, big handful of basil and some and glass of white wine added in at the end and bubbled down to a thin tasty sauce. (Nigel Slaters idea ) was very tasty indeed and smelled divine cooking. Followed by the remains of a box of Luxemburgerli

I made this:

Just used what ever veg was in my fridge, along with 2 Aldi Tuna Steaks. It was delicious!

We had honey-roast gammon, with roasted carrots, parsnips and baby potatoes, and steamed tender-stem broccoli, with gravy.

I've only recently discovered the humble parsnip. It's great!

Last night we had a chicken, wrapped with bacon and roasted, and home-made potato wedges, with a dipping sauce made of natural yoghurt, light mayo, garlic, lemon and black pepper.

The Hill Billy

Quails from Lidl seasoned with olive oil, salt, pepper & balsamic vinegar & roasted.
Served with herby cous cous, & sun-blushed tomatoes & red peppers sauteed with cinnamon & cumin.

Are the Lidl quail frozen or fresh? Worth trying?

I also had roast chicken (herb&butter basted, white wine added towards end as previous poster!) with roast veg - its that time of year!

re. Parsnips, glaze them with a little honey for a really sweet flavoursome experience.

tSubh Dearg

Last night we had pizza. In a minute I will get up and do some sort of salmon with a couscous coating thing.

psycho-hope

last night we had chicken stir fry, tonight its the cold old rasher grilled till really crispy and then put into brown rolls:D

Dizzyblonde

Tonight we had home made pizzas

Last night I had copious glasses of wine for dinner and nothing else.

It was not a good idea

We tried out another new recipe last night... absolutely feckin' gorgeous!!! It was beef in guinness casserole with cabbage and mashed potato! It was so tasty! And full of iron too

kenco

Last night I did Ramseys Steak Diane from his cookalong on Friday, not too bad at all (nice Oz Cab Sav assisted!)

Tonight was - you guessed it! - roast free range chicken (reduced in Superquinn) stuffed with a lemon and roast spuds.

Have the italien beef stew from last weeks Irish Times mag in the oven at the moment for tomorrows feeding!
