Aintnothingbutaheartache · 01/10/2018 01:33

Graphista meant your choice of pot noodle not your menu! Menu looks fabulous! Sweet n sour pot noodle tho is appalling

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 01/10/2018 01:35

Home made tablet? Aah there’s gonna be a lot of people not knowing what that is!

toffee1000 · 01/10/2018 01:37

OMG tablet... drools

Graphista · 01/10/2018 03:35

Grin I luffs sweet n sour pot noodle!

Dd likes the spicy ones.

I assume you do know what tablet is (fellow Scot?) for those who don't it's a very sweet (as in teeth itchingly sweet!) hard confection similar to fudge. Made with condensed milk, cream, butter and sugar and vanilla extract.

toffee1000 · 01/10/2018 03:56

Am not Scottish, but first had some when I visited Edinburgh several years ago.

DittoNut · 01/10/2018 04:05

@ThisIsNotARealAvo what do you put food on if you don't serve it on plates? Confused

MrsFoxPlus4 · 01/10/2018 05:00

Bearfrills, HolidayHelpPlease I’m spoiled for choice.

Bearfrills please have extra soy sauce on the tablet or couch I ain’t fussy!

Bouledeneige · 01/10/2018 06:25

Pea and ham soup

Beef fillet wrapped in herbs and prosciutto with red wine gravy
Potatoes dauphinois and long stem broccoli

Chocolate souflees

sittingonacornflake · 01/10/2018 06:41

@Didsomeonesaybunny I've never understood including popping candy in a pud - ruins the whole relaxing pud eating experience for me!

lynmilne65 · 01/10/2018 08:33

Goats??? Shock

Ballbags · 01/10/2018 08:36

I was on CDWM and my menu was:

Rillettes of pork trotter, shoulder and belly
Ox cheek and prune stew
Apple and Calvados trifle

I won too!

dontyouforgetaboutme · 01/10/2018 09:19

I like to serve food that's pretty much cooked in advance so no stress on the night. In winter it would be:

Double baked cheese soufflé
Beef bourguignon with dauphinois and green beans
Chocolate tart

In summer:

Grilled peach burrata and prosciutto salad
Persian lamb with rice salad
Hazelnut chocolate and salted caramel pavlova

Now I'm hungry!!

Dontletthebastardsgrindyoudown · 01/10/2018 09:37

Goats cheese, goats cheese, goats cheese! actually I bet warmed goats is pretty tasty anyway 😂

I go in a mood in Scotland if I'm not served a square of tablet with my coffee!

beef wellington with seasonal vegetables

Chocolate Bomb, warm double cream, with a brownie inside
