What did you have tonight

[Hilsjw]

M & S pork crackling joint. Beetroot, hassle back potatoes, onions, peppers, garlic, fennel, carrots roasted in the oven with the pork. Steamed Spring Greens. Bill wouldn't eat his greens as he doesn't know what's good for him ! Very good but pork was strangely on the tough side.

Homemade kofte and sauce again with a twist.



Our daughter adds garlic (plus eye of newt and toe of frog etc) to the kofte but the sauce isn't so simple...

Every year she buys 20kg tomatoes, crushes and blenderises them before putting them into a large sterilized bottle. Then wait for 12 months and they are ready to use!

It tastes as though it has a goodly alcohol content

Tonight, Voddy and diet coke with an overdose of Wimbledon, followed by bought in Lamb Kofte for me that doesn't look half as good as Jaycey's, salmon fillets for the boss and strange veggie journo daughter. All with new potatoes and broccoli.

Sounds a bit like salca.

Beef cannelloni. Nice taste but rather dry and should have made more sauce. Job in progress, once again !

The pot reminds me of a slow cooker I took to Turkey years ago on a solo trip. On day one, I put in all the ingredients for a chicken casserole and let it cook for about 8 hours.
That evening it was chicken casserole. Then, the following evening it was chicken casserole and then by the third evening it was finally gone.
Never has a Migros 'T' bone steak been so welcome on night 4 !!

Had a pork souvlaki before we went to the airport, on the flight we shared a bacon roll, cup of coffee and tea for her and a Cadbury twirl on Easyjet, very lucky they had the roll as they usually run out on the outward leg, still cost about as much as the flights though.

And if you bought Le Creuset pots you could use them as part of a weight lifting regime

Salmon berger thought I'd give them a go. Had to cook and debone. Salmon, egg, red pepper and onions very finally diced and brown bread crumbs. Black pepper. Fried in a lick of oil.. With rice and salad. Very tasty

 

[Jaycey]

Honey garlic prawns



OKish but..

Couldn't get decent size prawns and these tiddllers overcook if you just look at them.
Next time I'll insist on decent size prawns & dust them with flour so the sauce sticks better
But the sauce was great = just honey, soy sauce & garlic.

Very hot again just crisps , nuts and booze on the balcony .

Full roast chicken dinner back home after 3 weeks of enforced eating of that foreign muck, couldn't get a decent full English or curry anywhere.

Went to our grand daughters 6th birthday party, which was held in a pizza place where the children made their own pizzas. I took up individual jellies with strawberries in them. Went to a garden fete, held in the grounds of their local hospice. Lovely weather for it. Came home, couldn't have a BBQ on the beach - too windy. So, M & S chilli and cheese burgers, which were good. Chips for Bill, boiled pot's for me as not enough chips. fried eggs. Red wine. O.K. Glad you're home safe n sound Martin.

You must be filthy rich to buy salmon Enoch.

At 60 tl a kilo don't think so, it's just frozen turkish salmon steaks, I wouldn't pay them 300 tl for fresh steaks. Considering I can only eat about 5 or 6 things it will do me
