Homemade pesto and penne pasta. I will NEVER buy pesto in a jar again, this was YUM!

We had a Nigella dish I hadn't made for years. It's chicken joints marinated in olive oil, mustard powder, worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and sage and roasted with sausages and onions tucked in around them. We had it with new potatoes and broccoli.

Herb omelette with a little Gabriel cheese and raw ham and a splash of Frank's (better without cheese and ham, I reckon), English asparagus, toast.

To make up for my disaster last weekend, I've been making nice meals since.

On Wednesday, we had toad in the hole with homemade (for the first time!) onion gravy, mashed potatoes and peas.

Last night was king prawns in a cream and white wine sauce with garlic and chili, served with spaghetti and garlic bread.

Tonight was roast free-range chicken, roast potatoes, peas, Yorkshire puddings and the leftover onion gravy.

All were really tasty!

Where did your interest in Polenta come from? I see you use it a lot, I've never had it served to me by anyone but an Italian. Yours especially the fried does look mouth watering.

Tonight's a lazy one so we're having Chicken Korma and Rogan Josh both made with Aruna sauce, both done in 15 min. I have to say the Rogan Josh sauce is really really lovely and tasted very Indian restaurant like. Next time I'll use the sauce and throw in a can of chickpeas.
Served with buttered rice.

Peanut butter pistachio chocolate chunk cookies are in the oven now. New recipe so we'll see how this pans out. If it's yum-oh I'll put it up on random recipe thread.

I couldn't really say where my interest in it came from but it's become a staple which we both love, is incredibly cheap and once you know how, very easy to prepare.
