What are you having for supper tonight?

[LindaG]

Plaice coated in seasoned flour and shallow fried in butter.  Roast potatoes.  Vegetables.

Because I'm raiding the freezer tonight.

Yesterday's home-made lentil and vegetable korma.

[tiermat]

Having just done a Costco run it is a choice of:

1) 24 bottles of San Miguel
2) 6 bottles of Wolf Blass Yellow Label Chardonnay (a bargain at £22 for the box!)
3) fish balls
4) cheeze on toast
5) hot dogs
6) potato wedges
7) Granola
3 berry mix
9) Chorizo sossiges

Hmmmmmmmm now what to have, might well be a porportion of 1) and fish balls.....

Yesterday's home-made lentil and vegetable korma.

Recipe please, it sounds deliciuos

[tiermat]

Do fish have balls?

yes, but obviously very small ones, I am guessing these ones are from tuna or other such large species of fish

And before you ask, yes they do have fingers! Every 6 year old knows that!

[Andrij]

Turkey, stuffing, etc. as one would expect for Thanksgiving Day.  Pics may follow...

Actually, I don't expect a lot on Thanksgiving day, pretty much everything I know about it was learnt from USA sitcoms, so I'm vaguely aware that you have Turkey then, rather than at Christmas, and presumably a similar load of trimmings to what the UK has for Christmas Lunch.  That's about the limit of my knowledge about it, well that and Joey has a special pair of pants (aka trousers) that he wears.

"very, very, very, locally shot" pigeon breast served with crisped black pudding, followed by "very locally shot" pheasant breast wrapped in bacon with braised pheasant leg, dauphinoise potatoes, red wine jus and root vegetables.  Cheeseboard and coffee.  A few pints of dark star hophead and Bateman's best - at the Square and Compasses, as much favoured by the yacf Essex massive.

On this occasion though I was taxi-assisted, since it was a quiz team night out to spend our winnings.  It felt wrong though, climbing into a taxi instead of brushing the frost off my bike and riding home in the cold crisp clear night (-3 according to the taxi dashboard, -5 according to the cheap thermometer in my garden).

Yesterday's home-made lentil and vegetable korma.

Recipe please, it sounds deliciuos

It's very easy and thrown-together, in fact (made with a cheating Patak's korma paste)! Just cook onions until very soft, add the korma paste, then add some courgettes until soft, followed by cooked red lentils and yellow split peas to the mixture along with lightly-cooked runner beans, cauliflower, sweet potato (and whatever other veg you like). Add a can of coconut milk and simmer until sauce a nice consistency, then I added some chopped spinach at the end. Serve with brown rice cooked with vegetable stock.

Chilli con carne (from first principles, beans soaking) over baked local spuds. I like loads of beans and little meat, plus plenty of cumin, not to mention fresh green chillies for that clean, slightly metallic taste.

Carbo-loading for no apparent reason. Apart from being very tasty.

Having spent a not inconsiderable amount of time making a steak and mushroom pie (brasing steak, stock from a pheasant we had last week, very nommy, tip top pastry) I was somewhat disappointed when The Boy managed to drop it en route from oven to table.

Fortunately today had seen a fit of domesticity and I'd cleaned the floor, so we scraped it up and eat the lot.

Does this make me a Bad Person?

[jogler]

[itsbruce]

This evening, I will be serving up fillet steak with white bean mash and fried cabbage

But was it on the floor for more than 30 seconds? no? that's fine then

[Eccentrica Gallumbits]

Peppered quorn steaks, grilled mushrooms, baked beans and potatoes. Unfortunately, owing to an error of calculation, the potatoes aren't cooked and the quorn steaks are charcoaled. It's not the best tea I've ever had.

[peliroja]

Yesterday we had mashed Jerusalem artichokes. Delicious, but windy. 

[andygates]

I need to cook something in the oven to heat the kitchen up. Brrrr!

[her_welshness]

Spag Bol with sliced up pepperami 

[JohnP]

Plaice fillets with coconut dahl.

[Wowbagger]

We had a scavengers' dinner tonight.

Mrs. Wow makes soup out of chicken carcasses, enhanced by pulses, lentils, veg. etc. I had a late trip to Waitrose where the baguettes had just been reduced to 19p each, so I bought a couple. There are also some taters in the oven.

I was very tempted to buy a couple of punnets of strawberries, which clearly had not sold at all well. They were reduced to £not much, but even their knock-down price could not tempt me to purchase a foodstuff which had been grown in Egypt.

There were some aisles which had notices asking for shoppers' forbearance as some suppliers had been unable to do just that on account of the inclement weather.

[longers]

HP on bacon on beans on cheese on toast tonight.

[Aidan]

egg n chips

[peliroja]

Pan catalan. GaHARlicky.

[Manotea]

Manotea's body is a temple so he is having tuna salad... With chips.

[Andrew Br]

More freezer roulette has resulted in fusion cooking:- lentil and spinach curry (I made it yonks ago) with brussel sprouts.
They're all ingredients that I like, I just wonder how it'll turn out.
