It looks like you've left the tops on the carrots. Why? Can't eat them. I've seen restaurants do this, but more for show than go, Shirley?

Well they say you eat with your eyes too, and they look prettier

Recliner

Lamb kofta, chilli, tomato and butter sauce. Mint yoghurt, salad, flatbread, hummus, halloummi fries and spiced grains. And beetroot hummus for me.

Literally threw it together in 30 mins.

One of the nicest dinners ever. Yum!!!

Our first time eating halloumi fries, couldn't see what all the fuss was about TBH.
Best is, loads of leftovers for today.

This bad weather has driven me into the kitchen. Next week, if the sun comes out, we'll be back to baked spuds and salads again in this house.. and a few nights of baked beans. :pac:

Egg fried rice, bok choy with prawns and salmon with homemade sweet chilli garlic sauce.

cee_jay

Rib eye steak with parmentier potatoes and a salad of rocket, parmesan, pine nuts and basil pesto.

I thought I would be sensible and have a light meal this evening. The intention was a Ham and Cheese Wholemeal Wrap or 2 but I ended up throwing the kitchen sink at them. They ended up as Ham, Cheese, Iceberg lettuce, Tomatoes,
Onion, Coleslaw 2 Boiled Eggs, Cooked Chicken, Smothered in a Garlic and Herb Dressing. I destroyed the lot.

Cod goujons & chips from Leo Burdock's at Howth summit overlooking Dublin Bay. Heaven

Mystery Egg

Dirty Chinese takeaway tonight with a jug of margaritas while watching the Eurovision. Chicken balls, chips with curry sauce, salt and chilli shredded chicken with honey sauce. :pac:

No pics, but we had a roast chicken earlier, with mash, carrots, brocoli, pea's and gravy. We had 2 little pals from next door with us. Their parents are Polish, but were born here. I thought they'd be tricky tonight, but the youngest tells us that the brown sauce is yummy. Lol. As long as I've been gatecrashing their dinner's, I've never seen a pot of the brown stuff on the cooker.

McMurphy

Striploin done medium, baked potato with butter, some carrot batons with garlic butter, onion rings in beef batter and a heap of peppered sauce.

Twas mighty stuff to be fair.

We had roast loin of pork that I got in Aldi yesterday. It was lovely, but not very tender. Next time I want pork I'll buy a shoulder and roast it slowly, it's so much better.

Confit duck, with fondant potatoes and roasted garlic broccoli.

Mr.Wemmick

Roast lamb, mixed roasted veg with feta and yorkshire pud.

More sausage (O'Flynn's), this was from yesterday.
Chilli and coriander "salad".

I have no idea what's in the couscous (I was drunk).
Possibly nuts?

That's Cumberland.
Their Italian ones are lovely too.

Didn’t take photos, but I made Chicken with 40 cloves of garlic. Retro, I know. It was so easy to make, don’t even need to peel the garlic. The chicken was really tender, and the sauce was ridiculously delicious. Will be repeating some day and I’ll take a photo next time!

Had it with braised red cabbage and fennel & tomato crumble. Plenty of leftovers for the week ahead.

Mystery Egg

Thin cut steak, skin on fries and onion rings. Super fast and simple Sunday night fare.

If I was drunk I'd wonder why I'm eating salad and couscous :-)

You would be amazed at the healthy food I make when inebriated.
I do surprise myself.

I did go through a drunken sardine and rye bread phase...

I think it's just pure laziness not to head for the kebab shop, a dangerously 5 min walk from me!

I Really hope the gravy went on after the photo, I really do.

Sugar pit ribs and a rib eye tomahawk tonight. Amazing, I’ve been on the bbq since 11 this morning.

The ribs are genuinely a 10/10, if you ever get the chance to buy meat from Hannan Meats then buy these. They need absolutely nothing on them.

This was on Saturday, when we've had beautiful sunshine all day. I was feeling really summery, so decided on a light and fresh dinner.

We had a big bowl of chopped tomatoes, red and yellow peppers, olives and feta cheese with spring onions and oregano fresh from the garden. Dressed with just some salt, balsamic vinegar and olive oil, it was just delicious with some baguette I had toasted up in the griddle pan.
