Got a sage & onion chicken in the oven with sticky-sweet potatoes & baby leeks.

Got a beef & many bean stew on the hob.
Up ’til midnight for that. Need the Guiness to reduce in :-).

Need inspiration for performing culinary wonders tomorrow.

PIE!?

Home made meatballs and spaghetti here 🙂

Homemade tuna, red onion, mushroom and garlic pizza here.

They were doing pies on the bake off tonight

I’ve kept it simple with a leek, potato and Stilton soup and crusty bread tonight. Lovely 🙂

Cheated with pub food tonight. Away with the family self catering. Can someone please explain why no self catering accomodation EVER supplies SHARP cooking knives. Have had to buy a kitchen knife today so I can cook tomorrow.

Potato Dauphinoise with green salad.

Vegetarian chilli out of Hughes new veg book (definitely worth buying), griddled yoghurt flat breads (amazingly easy to make), sour cream, salad, grated cheddar and mixed rice – yummy.

I can’t claim to have made it though as I was working – was the other halves handy work.

Simple tonight.

Pan fried salmon with new potatoes and green beans.

slainte 🙂 rob

Homemade Apple and Blackberry crumble, Apples scrumped from my friend whilst he wasn’t looking and blackberries from the hedges round our farm!

We cook whatever bake off does ever week. Made a steak, ale, potato and onion pie tonight. Could hardly lift the bugger out of the oven!

I made fajitas tonight. They were, eh, short lived. *burp*

Pear and stilton risotto. Was really nice actually.

pear and stilton? sounds interesting, i’ve had last nights risotto warmed up, it went ever so slightly burnt on the bottom, mmm, cheesy.

Definately pie time tomorrow.

What did the bake-off have to say bout pastry…make your own?

Shepherd’s pie with some nice runner beans from the garden.

Satay chicken here… 🙂
Thawing leg of lamb for tomorrow.

beans on toast,with egg- no giro till friday

Hughes (sic) new veg book (definitely worth buying)

I’m banned from using my copy after giving me and Mrs North food poisoning by leaving quinoa and courgette out in the sun all day….

Chilli. Chipotle, Ancho and a few Skotch Bonnet chili peppers for a bit of heat and smoked paprika.

Chicken, chorizo and king prawn paella last night. First time I’ve done it and it turned out bloody luvverly. Made enough for 5/6, there are only two of us, so that’s dinner sorted tonight and my lunch tomorrow 🙂

Pork fillet cut into slices > marinate in thai spices/creme fraiche > 180deg for 20 mins. Serve with salad of choice. Job done.
