Tonight I cooked...

[PeteXXX]

Beef Brpth & a crusty roll followed by a yoghurt & a glass of milk 🥛

If you like squash or pumpkin soup with a bit of "oomph" then try it with either Thai red curry paste and coconut milk, or with Korean chilli paste (gochujang).

I've got some pumpkin to cook, so that will need some flavour & oomph to make it interesting.

Spag Bol tonight, loverley!

Otherwise, roast it with lots of garlic and black pepper. It's lovely that way. Can also be used as a base for a pumpkin wellington

Ah, roasting sounds like a plan... I've got plenty... free from a friend!

Also good "au gratin" i.e. in a cheese sauce, and in filo parcels with green lentils and feta cheese.

Freezer raiding tonight.

Motley, a pork and something curry, some spicy vegetable thing and refried leeks.
Just short of a culinary triumph, that's being kind!

Am warm and full but not an experience to repeat too soon or even ever. But I think it will repeat on me.

Chicken stew tonight. Browned the chicken thighs off at lunchtime. Threw in some carrots, onion, swede, parsnips. Lovely for cold weather

Nice with some roast potatoes and steamed French beans

 

[Reynard]

Black pudding, mashed potatoes, homemade apple sauce and a heap of fried onions & dripping.

The potatoes are locally grown (and free - I took advantage of a large spill nearby, hauling them home in my panniers), the apples were a mix of bramleys from my garden, and jolly miller and huntington codling from the community orchard. The black pudding was from the butcher in town, made (I think) on the premises.

It was the braised topside of venison tonight... wanted to make sure the freezer is empty in case I go to France mid-December. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it.

Moroccan chicken, recipe from YouTube. Was pretty decent. Always good to have a repertoire of chicken thigh dishes as you can happily leave them bubbling away and the meat doesn't go tough like breast can. Nice spicy base od flavours and then a good hit of lemon and herbs at the end to liven it up.

Monday pie.

 

[Reynard]

One from my "I can't be bothered to cook" repertoire, so...

Avocado on toast, roast tomatoes, baked beans and a fried egg plonked on top.

Quite similar to my Tagine recipe but that is with Lamb and Toasted Flaked Almonds rather than Chicken and Toasted Pistachios, spices are pretty much the same. Oh and of course I cook my version in a proper Tagine dish after frying everything that needs it in a frying pan (cos the ceramic Tagine won't take 'stovetop heat')
