Beef casserole with baked potatoes (and lots of butter on the potatoes).

A long, slow-cooked beef cheek ragu is perfect for autumn/winter.

GrouchyKiwi · 13/10/2021 19:59

I think borsch is going to be up there as a favourite, though. Made it recently for an international food project and it is so good and comforting.

We just had a beef pie with bubble and squeak... ultimate warmth and comfort... my it was tasty...

A big bowl of scouse with lots of beetroot and crusty buttered bread. Absolutely beautiful.

Thick lentil soup

Bangers & mash with onion gravy, maybe in a giant Yorkie, but I do love a stew or casserole in the slow cooker. Also love DH’s sausage pasta which is basic student food but now one of our favs. Oh & homemade soups take a lot of beating.

JammyDodgersandPeas · 13/10/2021 20:05

I just made a creamy chicken and chorizo stew and crumbled a load of lasagne sheets into it, based on an old Jamie Oliver recipe. Much easier than making a proper lasagne but still pretty tasty! Served with carrots and peas for the kids and loads of cabbage and spinach for the grown ups.

Pot roast chicken with potatoes and carrots roasted round the edge. Gravy and home made stuffing. I made it yesterday. Love a midweek roast.

I've also had Bolognese tonight, with garlic bread and cheese.

I like it, but my favourite thing will be when I turn the leftovers into lasagne.
