What are you making for dinner this evening?

[SylvieSangFroid]

Because I love these threads and winter food!

We had lamb, apricot, veggie and chickpea tagine, with bulgar wheat pitta and hummus on the side. Was lovely. A teeny bit of lamb leftover from yesterday went a very long way!

Homemade chicken Kiev (Jamie recipe using filo pastry) with parmentier potatoes, green beans and tender stem broccoli.

Gosh your meals sound lovely. We had the supermarket stir fry deal of a packet of noodles, prepared veg and a sachet of sauce. It was meh but Monday is a tough work day and I can't be bothered to cook.

We had roast beef, roasted potatoes, carrots and red onion, with cabbage and broccoli and paxo and Yorkshires

Paella with the left over gammon from yesterday with chicken and chorizo chucked in too. Also the left over veg (carrots and peas) and chopped hard boiled eggs to bulk it out - was delicious!

Roast cauliflower, roast butternut squash, chickpea and coconut milk curry, with brown rice, very tasty

We’ve got a beef curry with some kind of flatbreads, rice and spiced roasted cauliflower.
And some spinach paneer I think.
Hungry already!

Smoked salmon, curd cheese and salad wraps. Was bloody lovely.

Today was a roast but with chicken breasts as no one likes legs in this house! Did some garlic roasted butternut squash with it. Twas yum.

Prawns with a tomato and caper cream sauce with rice.

We're having smoked haddock fishcakes, Parmentier potatoes, cabbage and peas.

We were supposed to have a nice healthy lentil dahl. But I was passing the butcher earlier and went in and picked up some lovely juicey sausages which we had with chips and egg.

DP is working nights and i couldnt be bothered to cook whilst dealing with the witching hours and wrestling 3 screaming cranky under 5's.

Cheese and marmite sandwich on tiger bread. Only myself to feed tonight and after a day frantically prepping my store to reopen tomorrow and stressing about how it’s going to be I fancied something light but comforting

Pea and mint risotto

@PurpleDaisies

Lentil moussaka here with leftover butternut squash vegan cheesy type sauce instead of bechamel.

It was lovely. I’ve done double the lentil mix so I’ll use that and make fresh sauce next time. I can’t cope with making both in one go. Too much effort.

How did you make a cheesy sauce out of butternut squash? DH is vegan and I miss cheesy sauces but hate just about all vegan alternatives.

Fish finger butties - best meal ever

I couldn't quote your question about the instantpot. I think it is a sort of pressure cooker, yes, and it can also air fry potato wedges (and air fry other stuff probably but I don't know what). It can cook dhal in very little time, and all you have to do is chop the onion and throw the ingredients in apparently. It can also make apple crisps by dehydrating them somehow.

Home made mushroom risotto.

Duck breast with home made plum sauce, mash broccoli and carrots

Nuggets, waffles and beans
