Had a banana. Was going to the maccy ds drive thru after my test to get breakfast and the fcking thing was under maintenance then I realised I couldn't go in there so had to go without. All more Covid crap. I'll have to rustle up something myself.

igCorcaigh · 12-05-2021 5:56pm

Some random things...

Polish sausage with puy lentils and carrots mashed up with basil. I added obligatory hot sauce.

It was quick and tasty

Fathom · 12-05-2021 6:04pm

Tall, rich, dark java brew.

Wednesday night beers. I had a roast dinner from my local Centra Deli earlier today. Roast chicken, stuffing and ham with three scoops of mash, roasties, veg and gravy. Only €6,50. I'd give it a sold 8.5 for taste and value. I have some BBQ wings left over from last night. I'll pop them in the oven later for a post beer nibble.:D

Ginger and garlic chicken stir fry with red peppers, broccoli, seasame seeds and pistachio nuts.
The sauce is soy, rice vinegar and oyster with an array of spices and a splash of orange juice.

I like that Porklife. I need a new Wok to get back to my oriental vibe.:pac:

Woks are the business. It always makes me feel like a pro flipping the veg around in a wok

Orange juice worked well with the saltiness of the soy and oyster sauce.
I like stir frys cos they're pretty fool proof and I've had some kitchen disasters lately!

Off work tomorrow so early evening beers are allowed but having accompanying snacks too. Gilda's are a Basque Pintxo - Olives, Anchovies, Chilies, Olive Oil. Some peoples idea of hell but they go so well with a beer.

I don't like anchovies. Slithery feckers. I just couldn't take to them.:D But olive oil, salt, crusty bread and olives, I will always cherish from my time living (and working) in the sun. No better thing with a beer. But ya gotta have sun.:D

SaltSweatSugar · 13-05-2021 12:56am

Drinking a very, very rare (for me!) whiskey (Jameson Caskmates). It’s not normally my tipple of choice but **** it. My new housemate is a whiskey connoisseur so I’m learning a lot!

pottokblue · 13-05-2021 8:04am

I'm also having a breakfast whiskey to prep me for my dental visit. 3rd time this year I keep asking for local anasthetic they dont give so I have a whiskey tipple before dental visit to calm my nerves! then plans for big long coastal walk post visit and maybe fish and chips takeawy....

dasdog · 13-05-2021 11:57am

Nice to have time to prep breakfast for a change. Warm chicken and aubergine salad. Fennel and cumin seeds, chili, lemon, olive oil and vinegar dressing.

Porklife · 13-05-2021 4:20pm

Tuscan chicken recipe from a youtube chef called Kitchen Sanctuary.
I like her because her videos are straight to the point. She doesnt give you a history lesson about the origins of pine nuts!
I adapted this by adding black olives and chillies.
It tastes amazing. Im really happy with it.
Gonna serve it later with pasta and crusty bread and watch enviously while my friend chugs red wine

Grandeeod · 13-05-2021 5:37pm

A good old fashioned meal from my childhood at lunch time. A spice burger, beans and chips.

Rows Grower · 13-05-2021 6:34pm

Venison casserole with red and white onion, garlic, carrot, blackcurrant jam, beef stock and red wine with green beans, mash and a glass or two of Merlot.

I just finished fish, chips and beans. Made the chips in the oven. Tasty. Bit of the new chef chip shop curry sauce on the side.

Toasted ham and cheese with a ginger and lemon tea and honey.

dasdog · 15-05-2021 6:38pm

I just attempted to recreate 1985 - crispy pancakes and one of those frozen pizza bruschetta things that Findus used to do. Not recommended - it was like trying to eat Chernobyl. Will be reverting to the lamb curry I made last night with a silly amount of ground seeds and chilli.

what buns are they? they look fab...

Ordered a Chinese, have not eaten properly in ages.

Rows Grower · 16-05-2021 1:04am

That Chinese was unreal, absence makes the heart grow fonder.

None of us finished at round one but I had a second go just there, a bit of beef chop suey which was just reheated and made into a Brennan's bread sandwich.

Had a proper 99 cone in the park today. The guy opened a flake, snapped it in two and stuck a piece in each cone. My friend works in wholesale and said... what's the mark up on these like? Why'd you split that flake in half? It says 99, not half a 99.
The ice cream guy went bright red and opened another flake and gave us another piece each.
I stood behind my friend trying not to laugh.
I'm not even sure who's right or wrong in that situation tbh, i just wanted an ice cream

Grandeeod · 16-05-2021 6:14pm

A roast chicken dinner with mash, roasties, carrot and parsnip, mushy peas and a splash of chicken gravy was added.

lol...

I don't think your mate is right - its always a chuck of flake - not a whole one.. the 99 is the ice cream and flake.. but as a lover of choc as well as 99's I like his thinking lol.. fair play to him for chancing his arm.. lol..
