It's very nice.
I've also learned from this or some other thread that I've been overcooking black pudding for years!
It's already cooked, so fry gently for just a minute each side to crisp it.

I like black pudding with chickpeas and spinach.
It goes well with any type of pulse.

thank you igcorcaigh you and G only ones to back me up on the black pudding in aldi

Bassy, didn't someone mention in the Pudding thread about how the Aldi one is a different Irish brand that Aldi have outsourced?
Can't remember the name of the brand, but seems to be well respected.

Go to Aldi for Ballyvourney pudding...it’s the same stuff at a lower price.

Had to search for it on Google!

A little snack now of chilly crisps and chocolate just to finish off the night

As mentioned earlier. The BBQ Ribs. Dessert was a Ferrero Rocher cheese cake.

Porklife where did you pick up the njuda?

We got some in dunnes a few weeks ago , we found it flavourless - thought maybe we got unlucky with it as im years hearing people rave about it

SineadSpears

not long back from the shops and I got Icebergers. So of course i'm now having one for breakfast :P

pottokblue

Me too I had a Magnum as on offer 6icecreams for 5e, you know its spring/summer when instead of porridge for breakfast its the occasional icecream, enjoy your berger!

Lunch,:D Actually my dinner from yesterday, but I opted for Ribs. No waste in this house. Poured some gravy on too.

SineadSpears

I had the last of the potato, cabbage and ham from Saturday. Mixed it all up & fried it off, and had a fried egg on top. latte too. Delish

Kiddo's had the potato mix too, with white pudding and smoothie

Grandeeod

For anyone interested I spotted trays of Rockshore for only 24 euro in Dunnes today. I was in to buy some Ciabatta for tonights steak sandwich.:pac:

I got it in a delicatessen called Listons on Camden Street. I'd say Fallon & Byrne would also sell it. Sounds like the Dunnes one just isnt great cos any ive had pack a punch..its really flavoursome. Hope you find a good one:)

Toss up between rissotto and pizza for dinner.

Rows Grower

Homemade burger with red onion, crushed garlic and spices in the mix, bacon and cheese on top, all inside a warm seeded brioche bun with chips, beans and a couple of our own eggs on the side. This went down especially well after a couple of hours sea fishing this afternoon, a cold can of Molson to aid digestion.

Autosport

Bacon and cabbage

Rows that looks delicious

Fathom

Chicken salad. From deli. Lazy me.

SineadSpears

Thought I had fecked up the dinner but it turned out delicious. total fluke.

Had chicken curry and rice & with the Aldi skin on Fries.

oh my god those fries are unreal!!

I'm not a huge fan of fries I only like a couple on the side, kiddo's too aren't really into them, but the Aldi ones are in another league :pac:

If you are talking about the beef dripping skin on fries, yes!

Now sipping a dark, rich brew. Coffee fix.

They dont say anything about beef dripping so I think these are different.

They are in a yellow bag, say 'skin on fries lightly seasoned'. Think that's why they are so good, because they have something on them

Overall, Aldi fries have got so much better. I still buy SV fries and season with a Schwartz powder. Transforms them.

I have bassy. But the chip powder contains paprika and other stuff. Similar to the one in empty your pockets (eddie rockets). Which reminds me, I'm planning my fave meal from there shortly. A chicken fillet burger, bacon and cheese fries and a strawberry shake at home.:mad:

I have boycotted that brand because of the ONE time I got savoury mince mix and nearly died with the taste of it

awful weird tasting stuff

The beef dripping ones are Lidl not Aldi..i know cos i bought them last week

I had lovely fries today from Devitts on Camden Street. They had a little hatch selling cocktails and chips and to top it off, the barman let me go under the hatch to use the bathroom!

cool thanks, I very rarely shop in Aldi or Lidl but I'll stop off and grab a bag to compare both.

The Aldi ones were great so at least I have them to fall back on if the Lidl ones are not to my liking
