Some marbling on this, hopefully it tastes as nice(Aldi Ribeye) find British beef nowhere near as good as Irish. Served with some new jersey royals and purple broccoli

‘Fish ‘n’ Chips’ with Mushy Peas and Tartar Sauce

Tar.Aldarion · 26-05-2019 02:51PM

This is actually my breakfast now, but it's a dinner really! Naturli vegan mince from Dunnes (so good), asparagus, mushroom pasta sauce with a lot of extra mushrooms, babycorns, wholewheat pasta. Takes just a few minutes, would have added some red wine if I remembered my half empty bottle! As it is it's healthier though

Tar.Aldarion · 27-05-2019 11:40PM

Simple! Roast potatoes and roast brocolli with a no bull burger, nutritional yeast and French onion gravy.

An elegant small repast, swiftly prepared for someone who cannot be on her feet for long..

Fresh garden greens, gently simmered with thick slices off a bacon joint ( what we in the UK call gammon) and a half packet of instant noodles added .

Chicken and mushrooms in a creamy tomato sauce with pasta. I steamed the broccoli then forgot to stir it in :rolleyes:

Had an amazing dinner yesterday in Damascus Gate on Camden Street.

Vegetarian mezza to share (falafels, feta, stuffed vine leaves, hummus and salad with pita) to start

Kabseh lamb, spiced lamb on a bed of rice with a portion of spicy sauce to go with it.

Some Syrian fries on the table to share, and pita bread for dipping.

I also had a bottle of Lebanese beer called Beirut with the main.

All in all, extremely tasty no photos though.

^ What’s the difference between Irish Fries and Syrian Fries?

Tar.Aldarion · 04-06-2019 10:32AM

They would have a spice mix on them for flavour.

They were cubed for starters, and dusted with a spice of some sort, not unlike Patatas bravas.

Chicken and vegetable fried rice and homemade slightly-brainy-anemic-looking-but-exceptionally-tasty pork gyozas. Recipe yielded 50 gyozas so it’s just as well they are delicious

Whenever I make gyoza, I think “I’ll freeze half”. I then deeply regret that decision because I don’t think there’s an upper limit on how many gyoza I could eat.

Did you make the wrappers?

Yes!! And it was so easy! 210g plan flour & 180mls hot water in to the stand mixer with a dough hook for 10 mins until smooth. Let it rest covered in flour and then cling film for 40 mins before rolling and assembling.

I cooked 20, 5 each for dinner, 5 more for himself to snack on and then I’m chancing reheating 5 for lunch tomorrow. The other 30 have gone in to the freezer in batches of 10.

I halved this recipe, for both the wrappers and the filling

Baked potato with plentiful butter ( irish of course), quiche, and webbs lettuce.. Then home made sponge custard with lashings of freshly made blackberry jam, from fruit still in the freezer.

Saltimbocca alla Romana

A carb-free dinner that was bloody lovely!

Noon dinner here... Large baked Rooster, garden greens ( leaves of broccoli and first of the new kale) and bacon... all home cooked.... simply delicious and sustaining.

kylith · 16-06-2019 09:52PM

Chickpea burgers. Tasty, but my new cayenne is hotter than I'm used to; the faces the baby was pulling!

Shenshen · 17-06-2019 08:48AM

Halloumi and houmous wrap with pickled vegetables and red pesto

igCorcaigh · 18-06-2019 07:51PM

Tofu penang with red rice and green beans.

Graces7 · 19-06-2019 12:41PM

Delicious noon main meal.... Baked rooster potato , what we called "fried cheese" in my long ago childhood, ie cheese slowly melted in water, traditionally in a frying pan, and i whizzed an egg into it... side salad of chopped webbs and grated apple. Pleasantly replete....

One of these days I will remember I now have a camera but i was very hungry indeed!

Dizzyblonde · 20-06-2019 07:34PM

Mr. Dizzy braved the driving rain to cook chicken fillets and potatoes on the barbecue, then as we sat down to eat it in the kitchen the sun came out :pac:

Dizzyblonde · 23-06-2019 07:33PM

Lazy pizzas - I bought Pizza da Piero bases and sauce, which are very nice. I did roast my own veg though, and also added sautéed mushrooms and salami and some spinach.

23-06-2019 07:39PM

Cous cous, salad and pork belly

Lamb, prune and apricot tagine with cous cous.

Ryath · 23-06-2019 08:52PM

Made a butternut squash and chickpea tagine with the Lamb merguez sausages from Aldi myself.

greenttc · 24-06-2019 07:19PM

Seems to be a real run on cous cous, making me crave some now!

The Nal · 24-06-2019 07:42PM

Korean steak salad.

Gochujang, soy, rice vinegar, soy and garlic marinade/dressing, snow peas, radishes, watercress, rocket, lettuce. Peanuts fried and tossed in aleppo chili. Consumed with a nice glass of this pinot from Aldi which is great btw.

It's easy and fast to prepare, I usually make mine with stock with a squeeze of harissa for even more flavour, sometimes I add roasted courgettes, peppers and red onion or a had full of freshly chopped herbs like mint, parsley or coriander.

Shenshen · 26-06-2019 08:06AM

Thai Red Curry with strips of Inari Tofu (ok, not strictly traditional, but I had the tofu left over, so...)

Graces7 · 26-06-2019 12:04PM

simple and traditional y;day... Fried potatoes as I had leftovers, a lovely serving of fresh garden greens including broccoli, and seared chunks of chicken breast .
