Date night recipes

[ihavetogoshoppingnow]

OH and I have fallen into the trap of just getting a takeaway on a Friday night but I want to start cooking together again. DC are at their dads so just the 2 of us and I want to make something abit nicer than the usual. Any ideas?

Thai red curry meatballs, it's a low carb recipe and it's fricking delicious!

Why not try to make your favourite takeaway at home?

When dh and I have a night alone I tend to make stuff the dc wouldn't eat- Vietnamese or Thai, sushi, cheeseboards etc.

Truffle macaroni cheese - there are loads of recipes for this online. This one is quite easy and serves two www.gousto.co.uk/cookbook/vegetarian-recipes/easy-truffle-mac-n-cheese
Venison steak www.mindfulchef.com/recipe/beef/venison-steak-sauteed-leeks-and-mash
Prosecco risotto - again, loads of different recipes for this but is my favourite blog.vorrei.co.uk/prosecco-risotto-perfect-for-valentines-day/

These and ginger crab cakes are really good but don’t require ridiculous amounts of prep.

That should say chilli and ginger!

Pork with prunes and cider cream sauce - quick, easy and indulgent.

Fillet steak and garlic tiger prawn surf n turf , easy, quick and very tasty (and expensive but you don't need to pay for kids too!). Make nice side dishes to go with it.

@AtleastitsnotMonday that link is for a chocolate tart

Oh bloody hell! 3rd time lucky Chilli & ginger crab cakes, although I’m sure chocolate tart would be very good too!
