What's for dinner?

Need some inspo!

@EternalOptimist7

Where can I get massaman curry paste, palm sugar & tamarind paste?

You should be able to get those online at Morrison’s, Sainsbury’s or any other big supermarket. Otherwise Souschef is likely to have them.

Your meals sound amazing [/quote]
Thanks! 🙂 We do like to cook, and really enjoy our food...Those meals I mentioned are all very simple but delicious.

Spaghetti and homemade meatballs in tomato sauce.

It's cold, it's raining... it's Raclette time!

Melted cheese, potatoes, charcuterie, white wine: yum.

Melty cheese and wine...Ohhhh that’s perfect for my mood today...

Slow cooked chicken breast in a tomato and garlic sauce with some spicy rice.

Duck ragu with pappardelle and lots of Parmesan, and a glass of chianti

Ooh now I’m jealous. I’m making chilli beef nachos with home made gloop, but yours wins!

It's Friday, so we are having pizza.

Lamb and pearl barley hotpot with crusty bread and butter to mop up the gravy .
And wine 🍷

Supposed to be risotto but DP has declared this not exciting enough for a Friday so we’re going to take a trip to Sainsbury’s to choose something more treaty, maybe a pizza

Mexican.
Crab tacos, chorizo quesadillas and blackened steak in some kind of flatbread and garlic butter prawns, guacamole and probably some kind of spicy wedges.
Dh and dd2 are cooking up a storm, I’m sat in front of the fire with a nice drink... I think I’ve got the better end of the deal 😂

@TheChosenTwo please snaffle the recipes from them because that sounds amaaaaazing!

Tadka Dahl with rice

@TeddyIsaHe they are all largely based on recipes from the Wahaca books but with some adjustments I think. I don’t know, I just do the eating!! But they are delicious and Friday/Saturday/Sunday nights are all about eating the good stuff! Well, and the other days of the week to be fair...

Indian takeaway.

I've cooked from scratch every night this week (well, to be fair dh mainly did it on Tuesday on his day off) and I'm tired. Not been doing much but am disabled so cooking is a multi-hour sitting-down extravaganza here!!

Dh is having korma with Aloo Gobi, ds is on the tikka masala and I'm having aloo channa with mushroom pilau rice. Naan bread all round.

The leftovers will do lunch tomorrow!

Spiced baked chicken, roasted corn on the cob and patatas bravas.

It's my birthday so we're getting takeaway curry. I can't wait

I just face pasta again this week. It’s been a pig of a week work wise and I’m wrapping up now, DH has a while to go. Maybe a fast chilly or ‘whatever is in the fridge’ thrown together. With cheese and a bottles of wine.

Pork loin, roasted to the consistency of leather, with roast taties, M&S carrot and swede, peas, broccoli and onion gravy.

I always regret actually using my meat thermometer. It's going on the bin.

Friday night is takeaway night, and it's DH's turn to choose - sounds like it's local Italian - wahay!

Honey glazed gammon with potatoes and veg.

What can I use if I don’t have groundnut oil for the quick beef massaman?

And when it says beef cut into strips, would that be steak?

I’ve got a beef and veg stew in the slow cooker for later. Just thrown all the veg I needed to use up in it and it’s smelling blooming lovely.
