What are you cooking during lockdown?

[Rob the Imp]

The rest of last night's Chinese for us.

 

[Riiiiik]

(I nearly said, depends on whether the crabman has crabs!!)

Best way of getting rid of crabs? Give 'em sugar, it won't kill 'em but it'll rot their teeth.

Tea was a bit mad tonight: Cajun-style Welsh Rarebit. A standard recipe with the addition of finely diced apple and shallott and cajun spice.

Pretty good!

 

[Eweimps]

A small turkey joint tonight with quick roasties, yorkies, pigs in blankets and veg. Love turkey for a change
Turns out the thermostat on the new oven is out of calibration by about 30*c which explains things. Phone call to be made tomorrow.
greek yogurt with blueberries again for pud

 

[Riiiiik]

Sausages, mash, carrots and green beans tonight.

 

[Merthyr Imp]

Today was fish (Birds Eye or similar), chips and mushy peas.

Ooh I like the sound of that!

Dinner for us tonight was goats'cheese and spinach florentine tart (with an egg on top), roast potatoes and rocket with chutney dressing (Gousto recipe). Really tasty, 7.5/10!

Wait! "Birds Eye or similar"?! We need precision here! Was it Birds Eye or was it not?

 

[HitherImp]

Panfried trout fillets, oven baked scalloped potatoes topped with Red Leicester, peas and mangetout. Squeeze of lemon, pat of butter, happy days!

 

[Merthyr Imp]

Yes and no.

 

[NottyImp]

Yes and no.

Merthyr, this just isn't good enough.

I don't normally contribute on here but I've just discovered a new thing which blew the family away, and thought it would be rude not to share.
I was in the Aldi middle aisle and my eyes fell on the last jar of blackcurrant curd, which was something I had never seen before.
It has that great punch of blackcurrant, balanced by the curd and went down very well on clotted cream scones.
Being an Aldi special I don't know how prevalent they are, but if you do happen to sight one it's worth giving it a try.

Mrs S would consider that to be cheese on toast, well and truly spoilt by the cajun spice!

Well, it had the usual rarebit ingredients as well: Worcestershire sauce, brown ale and mustard. Next time, I think I'll use Ber bere spice.

I don't know that one

 

[NottyImp]

I don't know that one

It's Ethiopian. Can be quite hot but has a sort-of earthy flavour to it.

I often used to shout that when I was a regular at Penydarren Park.

Interesting, haven't heard of that one either.

I haven't heard of that one before but will look out for it! I've had a raspberry curd which was nice but the colour was a bit odd!
