I've done it and there may be a lot of it in my freezer since last May. The Bacon is great and I think I posted a pic of it earlier this year. Feckin hell, ya can't beat a bit of salty bacon with mash and whatever!

Luckily my freezer is full of stuff, but over the last week I tried Aldi meat to see how it worked out. Back the Butchers for me!

Yay!! That makes me really happy:)

I burnt my lunch cos I took a stupid work call just as I put it on low. My blabbermouth colleague takes about a week to tell you nothing. By the time she shut up my lunch was like charcoal.

Long busy day today with no time for food until just a while ago. There's a pile of other veg under the cheese on those mushrooms so it's basically just a big vegetarian meal.

I was lazy today and ordered Taco Fries.

IAMAMORON

Rack of Bellmullet honey and maple glazed lamb, roasted , and served on a bed of mushed Leitrim sourced early Autumn Peas minced with fresh mint, salt and lime.

Barley flaked twice cooked pommes de terre croquettes ( 3 servings ) heavily seasoned with wild Zaragozan sea salt, Albaquerqan crushed pepper and a dash of fresh pommegranate grenadine and strong Kilmeadan cheese berlais.

Skulling strawberry and cherry daquiris .

I had sausages, mash and mushy peas earlier with bread and butter. Hit the spot! Scooping a few beers now after an unexpected good day. Might have a takeaway tomorrow.:D

A proper munchfest there, that's the job kid.

Had homemade chicken curry and rice here and a few cold cans of Kortenhoef, nice lager.

Looking forward to a couple of pints in the local Monday, there's lads I used have a pint and a chat with that I haven't crossed paths with since March.

Yeah the kortenhoef from Aldi is decent value and taste.

Made a homemade whopper on the grill with fresh cut chips. Having a few cans of wife-beater now.

Roasted duck in a plum sauce, with snow peas and bamboo shoots. And now enjoying bourbon and tonic.

With mixed veg and sauerkraut.

Dinner is nearly ready for my small troop. Roast chicken, roast spuds, cheesy potato gratin and mashed turnip and carrot. Suppin a beer as I watch over it.

Breakfast this morning was badly needed after a long walk. A big and meaty honey and mustard sausage in the mix.

Steak samich in pitta bread , diced up with rocket and some lovely barbecue sauce.....savage!

Chicken Maryland, mixed veg and potatoes for dinner

Rows Grower

Roasted chicken, potatoes and plums nearly ready, some fresh crusty buttered bread and a glass or two of red wine shall complete the bill of fare.

Rows Grower

There she blows, the loaf that was bought yesterday was put into the turned off oven while the chicken was resting under tinfoil. The plums that were too tart to eat from the packet gave a lovely twist to the chicken that also had squeezy honey on it to hold the herbs and spices.

The rest of the crew are on the way back from west Cork and looking forward to trying it out. There'll be no waste anyway, that's for sure.

Yeah, but anything to eat ?

IAMAMORON

Toasted Brioche with homemade Strawberry compote dipped in a dark chocolate and mint créme anglais. I am washing down with freshly squeezed Seville Orange juice with a dash of lime juice delicately mixed with Schweppes soda water. I am percolating an Arabian coffee filtered with wild Guatemalan Cardamom.

Porklife

Flaked salmon stir fry with cashew nuts and weirdly potatoes. I just threw them in as they were leftover but they go great with the noodles. It's really nice and it's healthy:)

Onshuh

Pork chops, Maris Piper's boiled in their skins and doused with sea salt and real butter with carrots and garden peas. A simple and tasty dinner.

Chicken and mixed veg in a sweet chilli and garlic sauce with boiled rice and wedges and a glass of red.

Half a bag of Dairy Milk giant orange buttons from the freezer and another glass of red for dessert.

That is so up my street! Rocket goes great with pasta. What pasta is that you use, it looks really fat and juicy. Yum

About to enjoy home made chicken soup. Threw it together in desperate self defence as it was arctic in here early on... Smells … mmmmm..

Rows Grower

Scone out of the oven with strawberry jam and the banana bread is baking away.

Going to prep the fillet of venison curry now before I accept the kind offer of a spin into the village to visit the local pub for two lazy hours.

Venison, peppers, chillies, garlic, ginger and red onion stir fried, then coconut milk added and left to simmer, then some cornflour powder added and left to simmer again.
Two roosters thinly sliced and deep fried, egg fried rice nuked and prawn crackers from the bag.

Glass of red now with the two heels of the banana bread, out again at dawn looking for more fillets.

Mafaldine pasta

https://m.tesco.ie/mt/www.tesco.ie/groceries/Product/Details/?id=305794952

Malfada (also known as mafaldine or reginette, which means “little queens”) is a type of pasta cut like ribbons; it’s characterized by its long, fairly wide, rectangular shape and curly edges. Like linguine they are best served in a delicate sauce.
