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

Faith

The last thread was steaming ahead to 10,000 posts, so it's time to leave it rest.

Usual rules apply, namely no blog pimping, don't quote pictures, yadda yadda yadda.

Bon appetit!

We had a courgette, green bean and butter bean risotto with roasted asparagus drizzled in garlic, parsley and lemon butter then coated in pecorino. Also had a salad with olives, beetroot and gherkins.

"Sausage" rolls.
The filling is finely chopped and fried up mushrooms, onions and garlic, mixed with cheese, breadcrumbs, miso paste, a drop of dark soy sauce and an egg.
The side salad is quinoa with tomatoes, cucumber, spring onions and olives, mixed with a nice bit of peri peri sauce.

Not all that much, really. The puff pastry was shop bought, and for chopping the filling I have something like this here. It's one of my favourite low-tech gadgets, it saves an awful lot of time.

Had the (fully vaccinated! Yay!

) in-laws over for dinner. As usual failed to snap a photo. We had Moroccan style lamb meatballs in a tomato sauce, lemon and coriander couscous with pomegranate, roasted baby potatoes, cooking club garlic sauce and a lovely salad. It was a hit and they even took the leftovers home. :pac:

Looks lovely.

I must have a go at making that rice, but it'll probably turn to mush

Any tips?

Chorizo/butterbean/tomato stew with spinach.

Here's the recipe I use (serves 2):
*1 cup of rice
*2 cups of boiling water
1 finely chopped onion
1 crushed clove of garlic
½ a finely chopped red pepper
½ a finely chopped green pepper
1 finely chopped tomato
*1 chicken stock cube
A handful of frozen peas
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp turmeric
½ tsp paprika
A pinch of chilli powder
Olive oil

Sauté the chopped onion, garlic and chopped peppers in the oil in a large saucepan for a few minutes then add the tomato, cumin, turmeric, chilli powder and paprika cook gently for 2-3 minutes.
Add rice and boiling water along with the peas and stock cube.
Bring to the boil and them simmer until all of the water is almost absorbed, then turn off the heat and leave for 10 minutes. You'll need to stir it regularly as it sticks to the bottom of the pan and burns very easily.

*Lately though, I often cook everything but the rice in a pan. I cook a bag of Aldi boil-in-the-bag rice separately with the stock cube thrown into that pot, then drain it and add to the rest when it's all cooked. The rice isn't as wet that way.

Is there room in your house for one more.. that looks aaaamazing!

Comforting, warm, creamy spicy pasta bake with mushrooms, peppers, olives and a good bit of garlic. The sauce was made with 2 tbsp of ajvar and 2 tbsp of garlic and herb cream cheese, thinned down with a bit of stock. Topped with mozzarella and baked until bubbling and browned... there were no leftovers.

Making up normal pancakes in place of pasta. Two recipes: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/pancake-cannelloni or https://www.rte.ie/lifestyle/recipes/2013/0131/745906-pancake-cannelloni-with-spinach-and-four-cheeses/

The RTE one looks interesting as it uses Cashel blue. I loosely followed the BBC one, but added parmesan into mix and added it with mozzarella over the top.I also changed the tomato sauce part and added in a shallot with the grated garlic, sauted both in the pan then added the passata and a heaped teaspoon of roasted tomato pesto.
Pancakes need to be thin, mine were a little too thick.

Pics of the second batch I did for the kids.

It looks like you've left the tops on the carrots. Why? Can't eat them. I've seen restaurants do this, but more for show than go, Shirley?

Well they say you eat with your eyes too, and they look prettier

Lamb kofta, chilli, tomato and butter sauce. Mint yoghurt, salad, flatbread, hummus, halloummi fries and spiced grains. And beetroot hummus for me.

Literally threw it together in 30 mins.

One of the nicest dinners ever. Yum!!!
