    Last night I had Grilled chili Pork on a bed of sauteed (in garlic butter) leeks, almonds, peas and kale.

    Big bowls of pea soup again, followed by lightly floured, pan fried hake; potato, Jerusalem artichoke and garlic mash, carrots. Didn't bother with pics.

    Fish and mash left over so fishcakes (light on the fish) and something tonight.

    Last night was Salmon cooked Sous Vide @ 50 degrees C for 30 mins in my new DIY slow cooker Sous Vide oven.

    The night before was a rib eye steak done at 55 degrees C for an hour.... going to have a lot of fun playing with this :D

    Tonight for dinner we are having this

    I can't wait until it is cooked, I am starving.

    If anything the meals here are often extremely budget friendly, even if they look expensive because of high levels of deliciousness. Our dinner tonight is going to have about €4 worth of ingredients in it. I see the same in lots of meals that people post. Cooking rocks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 345 ✭✭Dr.MickKiller


    Pan fried/oven baked salmon, purple broccoli, potatoes, hollandaise sauce and crevettes pan fried in garlic and butter.

    Beef and pork meatballs, with a creamy mushroom sauce and basmati rice. So tasty! It's quickly becoming one of my favourite meals, now that I've discovered that you don't have to have a tomato sauce with meatballs :D

    Oh my god this was absolutely disgusting. Out of four of us, none could eat it. I nearly threw up while chewing it. Ugh ugh ugh.

    The pancetta was way too strong and the pork had a strong flavour too.

    So tonight we are having chipper. I am raging as I was so looking forward to having a nice, delicious, home-cooked meal.

    Oh no - I hate the waste when you go to all that trouble and tastes ick. It happened to me when I made Avoca lakeshore pork, we hated it.

    I cooked a chicken fillet in a roasting bag tonight with lots of veg and sweet potatoes. It's a quick and easy way of cooking for one, and hardly any washing up :)

    That's it too, the waste, of food, money, time and effort. It sickens me.

    You'd think I'd learn and leave something 'spare' in the fridge, but I never do, I'm always afraid it'll go off (have done it before - left something in the fridge for two days and realise its gone off when I want to use it). I don't have a microwave either so no quick way of defrosting anything.

    Just one thing after another today for me. Oh God today needs to be over already. :(

    Sorry for the rant!

    Speaking of cheap dinners, tonight we had fried eggs and fried potatoes with lots of salt and vinegar.

    With a little bread and butter.

    It was fab.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,713 ✭✭✭eireannBEAR


    And a hot pot of tea. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,951 ✭✭✭B0jangles


    You know, I love to cook all sorts of spicy and highly flavoured foods with a million different spices and condiments but sometimes an egg really is the best thing in the whole world to eat.

    That's definitely one of my favourite meals! Runny egg yolks are a must though (with the manky white cut off and discarded...).

    There was a delicious runny golden yollk hidden inside both of those beauties

    Beans on toast! And I enjoyed every bite :)

    That's all I needed as I went out for a fancy lunch with my colleagues - finishing up tomorrow, new job next week!

    Beans, eggs, sausages

    We also made donuts, just waiting on the glaze to dry. The one I tasted so far was like a little hockey puck, I think I messed something up in the recipe, but they're cute!

    (Re-read recipe, missed out on second rising stage. That'll explain the leaden texture slightly!)

    Went to a talk thingie that had a buffet beforehand. Had a bit of a very lacklustre greasy beef bourbiginoun.
    Came home starving and had some steamed asparagus dipped in hummus and natural yogurt and a handful of salty cashews. And about 5 Butlers truffles.
    It's late and I massively regret a proper dinner. Or not stopping in a chipper on the way home.
