I was going to have spag Bol, but didn't feel to great so had cheese on toast.

Leftover Tuna Pasta. It'll still be yummy!
Certainly never seen cycling south of Sussex

Lamb stew made with home grown onion, carrots & potatoes, & some dried shitake.

[Edit] Forgot to say: fennel & kabu on the side. Also home grown.

Fridge leftovers.  Not-chicken arrabbiata with new potatoes and hummus.  A surprisingly nice combination.

lamb with garlic, chillies, ginger & spring onions.  Noodles for a change rather than rice.

Coq au Vin with veggies - probably savoy cabbage, carrots and peas. probably in the garden again, assuming the rain holds off.

I'm going to have crust less quiche, crushed new potatoes and either salad or veg (I haven't decided yet).

Risotto with red wine instead of white (it's what was opened) and some chorizo in it.
Risotto is a GOOD THING.

Sirloin steak and salad, followed by banana "stuffed" with chocolate buttons and "roasted" in foil. Usually a bbq meal but lingering threat of thunderstorms means compromising and using the grill pan and oven.

Majorcan style BBQ lamb with jacket spuds and another, undecided side. I may well follow it with banana boats, as per Mr Fletcher.

Beef stew, even though that seems a bit odd in this hot, humid, sunny weather!

It's just one of my favourite meals, and really easy to prepare.
Actually, it is rocket science.

A half leg of lamb with rosemary and mint from the yard.  Done in the slow cooker.  For the same reason as Tim.

Roast chicken, carrots and steamed broccoli. My gravy skills are improving :)
It's not precisely carb free but pretty good.

What I do for roast chicken gravy, is to turn 2 x carrots, 2 x celery sticks and 1 x large onion (without skin, it darkens the gravy) into batons/slices to act as a trivet for the bird.  I'll generally add a couple of bay leaves, some fresh thyme twigs, and a couple of bashed garlic cloves, then top up to the level of the veg with boiling water before banging it in the oven.  I'll loosely cover the breast with some foil until the last 20 mins of so, but won't seal the bird into the roasting tin.

Then, when done, I tip any juices from the cavity of the bird into the tin, and remove it to rest.  Take a potato masher and squish all the veggie bits to squash out the flavour, and sieve (in my case into a gravy separator to remove the fat) the liquid. Season/thicken as required.

Ham, mash, cabbage and parsley sauce. Likely preceded by a couple of sweetcorn cobs picked from the garden and onto the plate inside 10 minutes, with just a dab of salted butter on them. They are soooooo sweet. Yum.

Last night Mrs T42 made us a roquefort, feta and spud frittata. Nom.  There was a bit left over so we had it cold for horses douvers at lunchtime today. Nom'.
I've dusted off all those old bottles and set them up straight

Chicken with red and green peppers in black bean sauce with egg and pea fried rice.

Lee Kum Kee black bean garlic paste is very nice. The jar says to use within two weeks of opening. Well what a shame that is.
