Matter Paneer, Jeera Ptoatoes and Cauliflower and Masala Paratha.jpg

We had some leftovers and some cauliflower that needed using up. So we had Matter Paneer, Jeera potatoas and caulflower and some Masala Parathas.

So.....I grew a few carrots for the craic.....

sammyjo90 · 16-07-2021 6:57pm

Sat outside in blackpool and had a sweet chili wrap and a mini mc flurry from McDonalds.

Was a nice evening

Gloomtastic! · 17-07-2021 9:20pm

Burger with a view! We'll be quarantining here all week until Boards sorts it's life out. 😎

sammyjo90 · 17-07-2021 9:28pm

Had a lamb burger myself this evening

TheKBizzle · 18-07-2021 10:14am

Made Indian food for the housemates. Dal Makhani, Bombay Aloo, cauliflower Pakoras, spinach and potato samosas, along with some mango chutney, raita, and parathas.

only remembered to take a photo after they had all taken some

A ton of sticky pork ribs - this was just the beginning 😋

Shenshen · 19-07-2021 9:53am

Egg fried rice, fried tofu and stir-fried mushrooms and broccoli in garlic chili sauce

I put some oil on the pan today

It looked very happy

Dave_The_Sheep · 20-07-2021 8:58pm

Roast-brocolli-halloumi-pesto pasta. Rather noice, but not as healthy as I had intended. 900 calories, if my calculator isn't lying to me.

TheKBizzle · 21-07-2021 8:10am

Made some Mexican food last night. Chicken Tinga, Cochinita Pibil, Carne Asada along with some grilled pineapple salsa, salsa verde/rojo retried beans, black beans and guac and some corn tortillas.

cnocbui · 21-07-2021 5:24pm

Not sure I have room for anything else.

Dave_The_Sheep · 21-07-2021 8:45pm

The rest of the brocolli, hoi-sin glazed salmon, sesame-coriander rice.

Just for one, right?

J Mysterio · 23-07-2021 2:25am

Brother made General Tso's Chicken.

TheKBizzle · 24-07-2021 3:36pm

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

Dave_The_Sheep · 29-07-2021 9:29pm

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

That fried chicken looks phenomenal, by the way.

Gloomtastic! · 29-07-2021 10:18pm

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. 😋

beertons · 31-07-2021 1:44pm

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

beertons · 31-07-2021 1:46pm

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.

Mystery Egg · 31-07-2021 8:49pm

Spice bag fakeaway tonight. With a nice shoe.

Surreptitious · 01-08-2021 6:44pm

Roast dins

Dave_The_Sheep · 02-08-2021 4:42pm

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?

Dizzyblonde · 02-08-2021 9:05pm

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 9:54pm

All right then!

Something Middle Eastern.

Gloomtastic! · 03-08-2021 7:50am

All pics look fine on my mobile…..

The Nal · 03-08-2021 5:22pm

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

Shenshen · 04-08-2021 8:19am

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!

Mystery Egg · 04-08-2021 6:35pm

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

Shenshen · 05-08-2021 8:15am

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 8:31am

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

That looks amazing!! Recipe please?

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!

Mystery Egg · 08-08-2021 6:37pm

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. 🙄

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117724711#Comment_117724711

I'm sure that that grey and flavourless leftover meat could be Mexicaned up in some way.

Mystery Egg · 08-08-2021 7:57pm

Good idea. I'll slice into strips and make fajitas with peppers, onions and a lot of spices. Thanks!

Mystery Egg · 09-08-2021 9:35pm

We had teriyaki salmon with rice and broccoli. Dull af!

igCorcaigh · 09-08-2021 9:43pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117730568#Comment_117730568

Hmm. Sounds good to me. Maybe some toasted sesame seeds to top and some rice vinegar on the broccoli? Radishes? Something zingy?

Gloomtastic! · 09-08-2021 9:53pm

Bratwurst with Broccoli Mash, Garlic Beans, Honey roasted Carrots and gravy.

Shenshen · 10-08-2021 9:06am

Stir fried vegetables in satay sauce

McMurphy · 10-08-2021 10:39pm

Singapore noodles, few chips and fried rice.

Any idea why the pics (all pics) are coming through slightly blurry?

Planet X · 14-08-2021 2:38pm

Sichaun Kung Pao Chicken.😂

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVSfiKFxsjw&list=PLuxDSARktx0A8WLSrwzcaEr-NE5u1YGdY&index=2&t=411s

Had to buy a few ingredients like Black Vinegar, Chili bean paste, Shaohsing Rice cooking wine and.....and the dreaded, Sichuan Peppercorns. Threw them out last year as I had used them incorrectly, whole instead of as above advises, finely chopped.

They, peppercorns (not actually peppercorns which I knew) might be going in the bin again 😂 or I'll use a much lesser amount than advised. They are ferocious!!! 😆

Dizzyblonde · 14-08-2021 8:45pm

I had leftover roast beef in the freezer so I heated it in mushroom & onion gravy and we had it with mash and cabbage.

sporina · 14-08-2021 9:59pm

v unusual but sounds cool

Shenshen · 16-08-2021 9:44am

I made us a nice, comforting hotpot on Saturday, using some TVP chunks I bought from our local Polish shops and vegetables fresh from the garden.

It was just the two of us, but we finished off this massive pan between us no problem! Seriously tasty stuff 😄

McMurphy · 17-08-2021 6:32pm

Vegetarian here this evening, I made this on Saturday night, and let the flavours develop until today.

Red lentil dahl, wild rice (cooked from scratch) and some samosa and naan ( both shop bought)

Bloody delicious.

Gloomtastic! · 17-08-2021 7:33pm

^ What is it about lentils that they carry flavour so well? 😋

Vegetarian here tonight as well. Butternut Squash Pasta with Garlic Bread. Wasn’t sure what it was going to be like with the spice mix but it was delicious.
