Spanish slow cooker chicken. (Damn didn't put the Chorizo in.)

Vegetarian haggis cos partner mocked the idea and I bought it to learn him.

I was just going to pick up a microwave curry but I'm half inclined to do gammon and eggs with mushrooms and sweet potato fries after catching up on this thread.

I'm pleased to confirm that the Pike was very nice, both as traditional fish and chips and baked in butter with green peppers and a little bit of onion.

Coincidentally Mrs N & I encountered pike somewhere on a fishmongerish slab last week & suspected that it might need a good reputation before we'd try it. I'm not an angler - far too impatient - so am very ignorant of the culinary virtues of most of our freshwater ("coarse") fish.

I am encouraged to discover more.

I have only ever had pike when it had been caught by my cycling companion somewhere in the far north of Sweden...

Pasta with Bolognese sauce seasoned with fresh herbs from our lounge.

I will leave herb selection to David and expect a surprise...

Our evening meal was bread & cheeses (British, of course).

Luncheon was more enterprising. I baked a couple of pheasant breasts, ready wrapped in streaky bacon, gathered from the local market on Friday. One huge baked Niclola potato & a similarly huge roasted parsnip (suitably cut, well soaked in olive oil with chopped fresh herbs from the garden) served 2 of us with the aid of a bunch of young spinach that was so unlike the supermarket stuff that I need to ask the grower why it was so good. Sauce was a golden roux gravy with a bit of sweetish white wine & some undrinkably acid, cheap (£1-75/bottle!) red wine.

I'll have leftovers tomorrow

We had pheasant tonight as well, the aftermath of a coming together of the pheasant and someone else's car.
The last brace that we acquired had fallen of the back of the shooting party's lorry (literally).

Indecent doughnuts, and not in the queynte cake sense.

Pancakes, bacon, maple syrup.

Nom.

Torn between steak, mushrooms and asparagus or scones with clotted cream and jam.

Everyone at work said just have both but methinks that might be a smidge greedy.

SteveC · « **Reply #2964 on:** 01 March, 2017, 06:29:24 pm »

Pancakes. Savoury ones, stuffed with mince and tomatoes and covered in cheese sauce, then sweet, one with raspberry vinegar and sugar, and then one with golden syrup.
I know we're a day late but we were eating in the pub last night. It's our 'fee' for running the quiz there.

Pappardelle pasta with garlicky cream cheese & chopped walnuts, with a grilled pork steak.

I am stewing some beef. As Sainsbury's have supplied me with more carrot and orange than requested¹, some will go into the stew.
Partner thinks it weird I am putting oranges in the stew.
I see no reason why not.
I think he has no sense of adventure.

1) 0.5kg carrots ordered, 1.4kg supplied & unsolicited family pack of 12 oranges.

Kippers

Oranges in the stew worked fine.

To say curry sounds mediocre. But it's my birthday and Mrs B is cooking up a storm of a curry in the kitchen.
Luckily, she needs to use up 4½ days leave this week or lose it at the end of march.
She may work, ahem, from home for the remaining half day.

BBQ chicken, one spicy, one garlic and lemon.

Extra chorizo on the side, salad and veg.

I can't wait...

Pork and Cider casserole, with boiled new potatoes (also bacon, onion, mushrooms, celery, garlic, cream, mustard and fresh parsley).

It's still cooking, so here it is before it went into the oven!

Findus Crispy Pancakes!

NAFC, I am just keeping out of the way.

Scrambled eggs with rainbow chard, spring onions, and Tuscan ham. Yoghurt and banana to follow.
