What's for dinner?

Tandoori Chicken, chips and salad for us tonight.

chicken and leek soup for me ,Lamb gigot chop and veg for the OH fruit salad using everything thats left in the fruit bowl

More flippin' Nando's peri peri chicken - from the freezer, I'd made three portions.

Oh, I've had enough of this lockdown cooking lark - I want to go out and eat something cooked and served by someone else!

The wine is chilling, so all is well really

hunters chicken for OH ,plain pasta with oil and garlic for me ,a banana split for the man with the sweet tooth .Just as well he keeps busy to work it off.

I had to freeze some of ours as well.

They were certainly very filling, Riverwalk

We had prawn risotto tonight. Oh dear, more carbs!

Not bad but a bit of a palaver!

I prefer more robust meatballs - the other three portions will go in the freezer to be eaten if Lockdown goes to the wire.

Re: IKEA meatballs

I've halved the recipe which will give us five good sized meatballs each.

Er, Merlot I think you weren't very 'Swedish' in your approach here - they're supposed to be small balls, so to speak

I've just spent ages balling the little blighters and they're now firming-up in the fridge for a few hours!

Homemade lasagne tonight to use up surplus milk in the sauce. I'm getting a Tesco delivery this evening, couldn't believe it when a slot became available a week or so ago. Hope all my essentials will arrive. I was congratulating myself when I saw self raising flour was available when compiling my initial list, but on a subsequent edit, it's now unavailable. What a surprise! Never mind did manage to pick up a kg of plain flour in Marks last week, so shouldn't really complain.

My Morrisons delivery came 3 hours early! I will be having spag bol tonight and I will open a bottle of red because I need some for cooking! I will make enough for 3-4 portions- tonight, tomorrow and freeze the remainder.

I managed to get an Iceland delivery slot (been existing on bread and scrape and chewing gum for days now) and today's the Day! Delivery before noon and there's a chicken in my order. Sage and onion stuffing made, I'll roast some tats and make a huuuuge tomato salad. Joy Unlimited!

Slow cooked beef in beer with Spring greens and Jersey Royal potatoes with mint from the garden.

Chicken dhansak cooked by DS1 and then into the garden for toasted marshmallows and wine (in our coats- it’s sunny but chilly here)

Yes I love it too Puzzler, I don't know whether it travels well though, otherwise I would Anyway you can't complain, you're having Dauphinoise Potatoes, more than alright, not to mention the beef and red wine casserole!

Beef and ginger casserole with mashed swede and peas.

TerriBull I love bubble & squeak.
Must make some soon.

Vegetable goulash with chickpeas and Jersey potatoes.

A bit of a use up!

Beef and red wine casserole, dauphinois potatoes and green beans accompanied by a glass of Thatcher’s gold cider.

Roast chicken last night with roast potatoes, broccoli cheese, peas, carrots and gravy. Tonight we will have the remainder of the chicken cold with bubble and squeak and mango chutney on the side.

Porky papardelle

Ooh, I can just taste that silky pappardelle with herby pork, mmm. ?

Using up left overs too.
Beef ragu with cheese and garlic bread and of course a large glass of red wine.

Vegetable mousakka for us tonight. I even made the bechamel sauce and it didn’t go lumpy. Think I’m getting quite good at this cooking Larky

Mixed grill for me today, I got some fresh tomatoes before instead of opening a large tin. I love fried tomatoes with it.

We are eating leftovers tonight, Chicken curry, Tarka Dhal, Kachumba, and Puri breads all that I made yesterday (We did have all of this last night as well but with Pilau rice that I had made but thats all gone as I dont reheat rice) . We do like day two curry meals it has had time for the flavours to develop especially when we just eat it all with flat breads. no knives and foks just fingers as its meant to be eaten. Making my hungry just typing it all.
