Here's What I Had For Dinner - Part III - Don't quote pics!

Steak tacos

My partner made a mistake in "beef dishes with names of English toffs and/or places named after English toffs" and accidentally said Salisbury Steak when he meant Beef Wellington.

I got the eye of round to do a cheapo-Wellington (wellie?) tomorrow but did the Salisbury Steak tonight

Will do again - with more concentrated beef stock and gravy to reduce how long it takes to simmer down; and some more herbs/spices to the meat. Texture is actually really quite nice from just searing the outside at high temperature and then cooking off in the onion/mushroom sauce.

I also bought some pre-made boxty to slice and pan-fry rather than doing spuds myself because, well, we don't usually eat them so there's none in the house!

And the veggie couldn’t make it in the end. :rolleyes:

How did you get the chicken to brown.

Its a variation of this

I don't add the noodles to the soup. Cook them separately and put in the bowl first. Pour the cooked soup over.

I add 2 x star anise, juice of 1 lime, teaspoon and a half of gochujang. Also less stock than the recipe. 1 x stock cube per litre instead of 1 cube per 500ml.

Add in the prawns (about 4 king prawns PP) towards the end, then the soy, lime juice, coriander and a pinch of salt with the shredded chicken. Top with seseme seeds, coriander, radish, scallions.

Also I put the soup on a heavy simmer for 30 minutes minimum before I add the prawns etc. Longer the better. Top it up with a little boiling water if too much boils away. Recipe says cook for 5 mins above which is far too short. You'll just end up with gently flavoured stock.

Good Monday soup that uses up leftover Sunday roast chicken.
