Having a skint week so random things I need to use are (not all in same recipe)

Most urgent
Big tub of sour cream
Half a jar of sundried tomatoes

also have bought
brown miso paste
pomegranate molases
sumac

what on earth was I planning to cook 🤷🏻‍♀️ Any suggestions???

Sour cream I would use up with
Fajitas
Potato skins
Any leftover bits into a wrap and make a quesadilla and use as a dip

Sun dried tomatoes use in a salad or they work well in a pasta bake which is my go to for using up scraps of veg and meat too!

Sumac goes well with feta

Use the sour cream and SD toms to make a creamy pasta sauce.

Use pomegranate molasses and sumac together in a salad dressing.

Apart from the sour cream, all the others will keep for a long time.
I've got a jar of sd toms in the fridge well out-of-date, but still fine.
BTW, the leftover oil is great for frying eggs, sauté spuds etc.

You can use sour cream in

Marinades Indian or Turkish chicken style

Dinner rolls dough

Irish soda bread (instead of butter milk)

I second this!

Or if you have any chicken and paprika I can recommend this

Sun dried tomato bread and then use for cheese on toast - very filling!

brown miso paste
pomegranate molasses
sumac

This positively screams "Ottolenghi" (which PP have picked up on I see!). 😂I believe I too have a bag of sumac at home. You need to just browse the Ottolenghi sections!

Pomegranate molasses is good as a marinade for chicken with garlic, olive oil, honey and cumin

ImNotReallyHere · 31/01/2024 10:52

Thanks all. Some great ideas. Just need to find something to use the brown miso paste up. All the recipes I see specify white miso paste.

Use the brown miso in a white miso recipe. If you haven't got tahini use peanut butter.

We put SD tomatoes on pizza, and as others have said they last forever in the fridge.

Sour cream is good in almost any blended veg soup - beetroot, root veg etc.

Sumac is delicious sprinkled on fried or poached eggs.
