A family gathering of 10 people were around at our place today…
2 Legs of our own Lamb. Done in a casserole dish for 2.5 hours. Incisions made in the lamb and sprigs of rosemary and small slices of garlic pushed into each incision. 2 Limes also placed in the dish. Some gravy was made with the juice, adding red wine and a spoon of flour.
A 4 stone bag of the Captain Kavanaghs Golden Wonderers got devoured also. Garlic potatoes, Roast Poatatos and Potato stuffin were all in the mix.
Some Carrots with butter and thyme and some steamed brocolli completed the mix.
This was served at 2pm today. I cannot move since not to mind thoughts of eating something else. A large slice of romantica was devoured around 4pm.
Cold lamb sandwiches for the rest of the week :guns:
Enjoying a fine crop of celeraic in various forms from the garden at the moment. Eggplant (Aubergine), Peppers, Sweetcorn, Beetroot, Leek, Carrot and Zucchini also coming through in abundance. Fantastic being able to pick vegetables for the dinner and see them on your plate 30 minutes later.
Tomatoes not ready yet, but I fear a bit of a disaster on the cards this year. I’m getting Heritage varieties next year.
I know a guy while on business in England would have two boneless bauquets in kfc and when he arrives at his destination has tea and full swiss roll. All truth.
Going to order a takeaway tonight, I don’t really feel like cooking for a have a cold and my throat is sore. What would you recommend guys? I was thinking a curry or something along those lines would be good for my throat given its saucy texture.
Get a beef with black bean sauce from the Chinese, it is very good. Was a while since i had that but had some last night and half tempted to do same again tonight.
Just had a feed of pork chops cooked in the oven with cajun and served with natural yogurt, mashed spuds and mixed veg.
Tea and swiss roll after. A noble feed.
Onion, garlic and herbs gently fried up in olive oil before adding some chirizo. I then added some baby potatoes I had boiled up in their skinks and cut in half, and also added some peppers and mushrooms and a spoon full of hirissa paste. Added chilli flakes, salt and pepper for seasoning and let it fry away gently for 20 mins stirring occasionally. In the oven I had two chicken breasts stuffed with blue cheese and wrapped in ham.
It was all the ingredients I had at hand and it turned out wonderful, the smokey spiced flavour of the potatoes was perfect with the creamy cheese chicken.
