So mine was last nights tea :



Chicken thighs and drumsticks roasted in oven sprinkled with mixed spice and garlic cloves. (added salt & black pepper) .Mashed Potatoes, and Sweetheart cabbage.

Porridge for breakfast this morning. The real thing, not out of a box. Have a large Bain-Marie which I keep for just that purpose.

I love any type of crumble.Apple is nice with a few sultanas sprinkled in.

3 Weetabix with warm milk done in the Microwave this morning.

And no, eating 3 is NOT greedy.

Tonight I will be cooking plaice, with courgettes, and pasta. Afterwards, there is a large tin of rice pudding into which I will pour some evaporated milk, and a teaspoon of strawberry jam, before serving.

Mushroom soup for lunch today. Wild mushrooms, from the bottom of the garden and a good wallop of fresh cream all helped. No good for the figure, but who cares? And a glass of claret (finishing last night's bottle) but I didn't cook that, did I?

Do tins of rice pudding count? We expect better of Nigella!

Isn't this thread supposed to be the last thing you cooked, rather than the next thing you're thinking of cooking?

Last nights tea - Aubergine, onion, garlic, tomatoes, parmesan and mozzarella with basil, baked in the oven and served with crusty bread

I made french toast with greek yogurt for breakfast this morning.

Mushroom soup is my favourite. I tell you what you dont see now, thats celery soup, I wonder why ? I was going to buy some celery salt today as Nigella Lawson was using it in a recipe, and said it saved her chopping celery up, but I forgot didnt I ?

lunch for two - mashed potatoes and gravy and pork chop each

Sorry...I don't quite understand the thread...I thought we all had servants on here to do the cooking for us??:hihi::hihi:

Not sure how you define "cooked"

I recently put some onion bhajis in the oven...I don't count that as cooking though

Were they nice??:)

Tonight's tea was roast chicken with a huge pile of salad and bread and butter. I didn't think about doing baked apples in the space left in the oven until it was too late- oh well.

yes, if youve used the cooker Dennis, it can come under this thread.

I made pasta with garlic, onions, peppers, peas, sweetcorn and pesto - a quickie after spending far too long drinking hot chocolate and eating KitKats and ginger nuts at the Blood Donor Centre!

I recently heated up some curry I'd made a while ago and frozen. I had it with saag paneer, naan and rice

Steak pie (I'm saving the rest for tomorrow; I'll eat it cold) and mashed potato with garlic and apple.

Ah, you brought my thread back. So you put BOTH garlic & apple in your mashed potato ?

I did, Pat; and very nice it was too. Actually, I've got some of that left too, I'll fry it up with my black pudding in the morning.

Thats sounds nice.Like a kinda bubble & sqeak you mean ? I love Black Pudding. fried.

I did poached Cod, boiled potatoes and peas, with parsley sauce.

Blimey, you put us to shame with these healthy meals dont you ?

It is healthy, but I'm a real fish lover, and it could just as well been fried fish n chips.

Got a good chippie near you, or do you do it yourself?

Chippy sometimes, but I like home done, even make my own beer batter for the fish.

What beer do you favour?

Any chance of an invite one evening?

I like real ales, and I find hobgoblin a good one for batter making.

Good choice. I'm an Adnams man myself. But I do tend to keep a polypin on the go here anyway.

I've not tried Adnams:?::?:, and I can't afford to keep that much beer in, these days.

It's local down here. And it would make good economic sense, at a little over a pound a pint, if I didn't get through it so quickly.

If I knew where down there was I could try it, if I was ever down there, and at that price, I'm sure I would.

I think a lot of the smaller breweries sell polypins for around the same price, in the region of £40 for 32 pints (but you can normally get 36 out if you don't mind it slightly yeasty at the end).

A couple of slices of toast

I'll have to check round the breweries in the area, to see what I can find. I'll also see if I can find any Adnams, round here too, I like to try out new brews. I've found the brewery, so if I'm ever down there, I'll try it.

Talking of cooking:) I put some frozen sausage rolls in the oven last night so I could put some in OH packup for work today. Apart from a "croque monsieur" that I shall do for my lunch, I don't know about today yet.

And, talking of cooking, I did myself some porridge again this morning, and then a few slices of toast. I didn't, I have to admit, cook the marmalade that I had on the toast, but no-one's perfect, are they?

Fried everything for lunch. Bacon, sausage, tomato, mushrooms, onion, eggs, black pudding. I could eat it all again.

The last thing I cooked were Weightwatchers muffins.I added home grown blackberries instead of blueberries.They are really nice!

Baked potato and quiche

A mushroom omellet. (sure Ive spelt that wrong) :huh:

Gammon and pineapple, mushrooms, tomatoes, chips and beans

We had the same problem last night, didn't we? You forget which thread you're on, don't you?

They say young people don't even know what dripping is these days... So they don't know what they're missing, do they?

I did a beef casserole last night, and my early morning toast has just popped out of the toaster, hasn't it?

Pasta and a stir in sauce :)

Beans on toast

Crumpets, just dripping with butter

Just cooking now, steak and kidney pie which I shall serve with oven chips and marrowfat peas, followed by Rhubarb pie and custard.

I cook very rarely these days, as I am not well enough to stand up long enough, but I did cook lunch for my husband and daughter yesterday - cheese and sardine sandwiches, pan fried in olive oil. I couldn't eat them myself as I am wheat and dairy free, but they smelled lovely!

Pork chops and jacket potatoes (serving two)

Spinach and Ricotta pizza with chips

Baked beans on granary toast

Omelette and beans

To celebrate the colder day today I am now cooking a sausage casserole...which I will serve with mash potatoes and garden peas....followed by bread and butter pudding.

Well we just had ours - Liver,Sausage and Onion casserole, served with roast veg, herby mash and gravy.

It was yummy :D

Just put a chilli in the oven made with braising steak, red and yellow peppers, garlic, cayenne, cumin, turmeric and whole green birds eye chilies........if that doesn't sort my cold out nothing will

Butternut squash risotto - smoked bacon, onion, garlic, red pepper, butternut squash and arborio rice.

Corrrrr, that sounds wonderful....I make risotto quite regularly but haven't used butternut squash before

Works really well. I often liven it up with a touch of chilli - but none tonight as I was eating with the kids. Youngest is a bit of a chilli fairy....the smoked bacon is a must and I sometimes grill the red pepper which adds to the depth and smokiness of the flavour. Thyme too.

Yum. Yes I always try to use bacon as a base for risotto...it just adds an essential flavour. I've used some left over salami in the chilli tonight to add a touch more flavour.

hmmmm...food....drool!

Salami - good stuff....pork products... where would we be without them? One of my best ever risottos paired butternut and kabanos.....

Upstairs simmering on the stove is a chicken curry made with organic free range chicken breast, onion, garlic, ginger, chilies, turmeric, cumin seeds, tomato, red pepper and banana.

For my cold

I can't remember, is that a bad thing?:confused:

Maybe. I cook because I enjoy it..its a hobby as is the eating

Does eating something that has been cooked, count? In that case, it's Chips from that chippy off the moor.:love:

No, that doesn't count...you have to do the cooking yourself, unless you are a celebrity chef and you just supervise and order your underlings about

No, I'm not a chef. So I guess it don't count after all.:( I could always crack an egg over my boyfriends chest and see if it fries, coz he's so damn hot!!!:love::love::love:That would count, yes?
