Just for one, right?

Brother made General Tso's Chicken.

Made some fried chicken and a potato salad with charred chilli, tomato and orange salsa topped with maple and cumin glazed pumpkin seeds

Teriyaki chicken, with some random veg I had in the fridge.

That fried chicken looks phenomenal, by the way.

We had Teriyaki Salmon tonight. The pic is from the other day, Carbonara with garlic bread. Two dinners in about 20 minutes each. I’m getting fierce lazy. 😋

Made it to Mex West in Dingle the other day. Prawn taco's were unreal. Beef nachos were up there too.

Also a big shout out to Pickle Rick's, Chicken & Bacon Ranch Burger was so tasty. Never took a pic of the burger, you'll just have to salivate over the menu.

Spice bag fakeaway tonight. With a nice shoe.

Roast dins

Green bean/pea and potato/egg salad. Mustard caper garlic dressing.

Side note. Does anyone else find the image options on new Boards absolutely sh*te? If I attach the image directly, the size is tiny, as above. If I do what I used to do which was upload to imgur, it doesn't link to the direct image even if you supply the direct image .jpg link, it ends up like this which looks sh*te.

How are the rest of you doing it to get decently sized images?

Minced beef & mushroom pie. Comfort food. In August 🙄

I'm on the laptop and copied and pasted the one above. If I add a photo that's been saved to the laptop it comes up sideways.

I haven't even tried to use my phone yet.

Trying that so... nope, still coming up small.

igCorcaigh · 02-08-2021 09:54PM

All right then!

Something Middle Eastern.

All pics look fine on my mobile…..

Chicken Donburi with black rice, soy cured egg, avocado and pickled cabbage. Surprisingly easy.

Tagliatelle Bolognese - well, the Italians on here will rightfully argue it's not a Bolognese sauce as it doesn't have meat in it. What it is is a slow-cooked veg, mushroom and tomato ragu. And what it also is is bloody tasty!

04-08-2021 06:35PM

Seafood cocktail with salmon, prawns, avocado and tomato, with chips from our own spuds from the garden. :)

I wanted something warming, comforting and satisfying yesterday. So I decided to try a new recipe, Rajma Masala

It's a creamy, slightly spicy kidney bean curry and it really ticked all the boxes! We had some vegetable pakoras with it, and fresh chapattis

Ultimate Gowlbag · 05-08-2021 08:31AM

Blue cheese and bacon Bread bowl with huge croutons from the bread "lid" and steak on the side

I generally followed this : https://www.vegrecipesofindia.com/rajma-masala-recipe-restaurant-style/

Though I did add in some dried fenugreek at the end, too.

The pakoras are made similar to this : https://www.rahema.co.uk/blog/sweet-potato-pakoras/

But I only used 1 onion. I did add some frozen peas and sweetcorn, though.

I'm just rubbish at following a recipe, sorry!

My husband doesn't really cook and when he does, he usually chooses a veggie option.

So today unusually he fancied a roast so I sent him to the butcher for a piece of rolled rib of beef, or failing that, a piece of brisket. If neither cuts were to be had I told him to ask for something conducive to long slow cooking.

The butcher sent him home with... round.

I did my best with it. I seasoned the joint and seared it, and then braised for a few hours in wine with garlic, mixed fresh herbs, carrots, celery and onions.

The result was tender with a delicious gravy...but God was the meat itself grey and flavourless. 😒 We did our best and served it with roasted new potatoes from the garden, carrots and broccoli but we've a mound of tasteless leftovers. 🙄
