What’s your family’s favourite home-cooked meal?

[MadameSzyszkoBohusz]

Just made my family their favourite, which is chicken breasts topped with homemade pesto, wrapped in pancetta and served on rice with a white wine and mushroom sauce and green veg.

If I’m honest, it’s not my favourite - it’s fine, but I prefer food with more kick to it - but DH, DD and DS all really love it, so I make it at least once a month.

What’s the smash hit in your house?

Spaghetti carbonara, closely followed by hunter's chicken.

Ooh, I do love spaghetti carbonara.

Home made steak pie with mash, veg and gravy.

Marry me chicken or roast dinner here, depending on who you ask

DH makes a wicked curry, I make a pretty good roast

We go through phases but shepherd's pie and bolognese are top of the list for me and DD at the mo. Also a roast veg pasta sauce or a roast dinner. Fortunately DH is happy to roll with whatever we want (both ND and go through food phases).

DD is absolutely obsessed with omelettes too!

Roast pork and all the trimmings probably

Why rice and not pasta out of interest? Sounds delicious btw. Is the pesto olive oil/Parmesan/basil/pine nuts?

A full roast, they like chicken and lamb the most, always with Yorkshire puddings and a selection of vegetables and my crispy roast potatoes.

Full roast dinner
Spaghetti bolognese or carbonara
Lasagne
Cottage pie

Just asked them and they couldn't narrow it down any further

My spag Bol and fish pie.

Chilli con carne.

Macaroni cheese here.

They'd eat it by the trayful.

Brunch.

Macaroni cheese.

Pork chops.

DH spaghetti and meatballs
DD mince carrot & onion with Yorkshire puddings
Me Mexican Chicken

its hard to narrow it down to one. Our top 3 are:

Baked salmon, rice, garlicky broccoli, tzatziki

Butternut squash risotto and salad

Roast chicken with all the trimmings

Pasta with homemade tomato basil sauce

A roast, especially beef or lamb
27th December: turkey and ham pie with left over gravy, chopped shallot, sliced leek, bit of cream and a slug of sherry
Curried chicken thighs with shallots, spinach and lemon, bit of stock and creme fraiche

I just asked and was surprised by the answer - pizza. I haven't made it in ages and think my own is good but not outstanding.

My Sunday roast, cottage pie and a Greek tray bake dish I do

Probably nachos. I find it a faff making all the fiddly components, but it’s one of the only things our disparate and eclectic family will all enthuse about.

A roast dinner of any description.

Lasagne.

Sausage and mash.

Roast dinner always

My Toad in the Hole, with onion gravy

Lentil cottage pie (even though we're meat eaters) or carbonara. My daughter new favourite is pork loin steak in creamy cider sauce, with crispy baby potatoes and oven roasted asparagus.

Roast dinner
Either chicken gammon or lamb is the top 3

If the dcs had their way we would have roast daily but they settle for once to twice a week.

Other favourites - pie mash veg , meatballs. carbonara and chicken tenders and chips with beans
