mums at work dads at work what can I find in the shelves and cupboard dish is my ultimate.somehow it comes together hehe.
but ti be honest I leanr it all from my mum.any of my dishes she could trump any day!

I love to cook for my dh as he really appreciates it. Favourite is steak with peppercorn sauce. Chips, garlic mushrooms. Prawn cocktail to start. X

It has to be a roast dinner - always a favourite in our house although not often I can do it with working 8 hours on a Sunday

Chocolate cake! Or Brownies. I don't bake very often nowadays, so like to make it special when I do.

Thai curry - mild, so we can all eat it. It's clean, full of veggies and super tasty.

I cook so many dishes. The usuals, spaghetti bolognese, lasagne, chilli etc & more "exotic" ones like paella

Roast chicken or Toad in the Hole or pasta dishes are what all the family enjoy. And I love making all of those

Its dessert - apple crumble and custard. its amazing, good for warm and hot months (substituting custard for ice cream) and even better with more than a dash of cinnamon.

My family's favourite meal of all is fajitas.
But probably slightly different to most households, as it consists of loads of little bowls with everybody's favourite bits to add. My daughter goes mad for purple beans, and my son can't get enough of his tamed jalapeños.

Pancakes with bacon and maple syrup - they all love it!

A roast dinner because it always brings our family together.

Speciality cakes for the most special people - cheesecake, fruitcake, angel cake, chocolate, vanilla sponge, torte, cookie, red velvet, Boston cream pie, etc., etc.

Roast chicken, roast potatoes, vegetables and gravy, no artificial flavours just good plain cooking from the heart for those I love.

I cook stir-fry and pot stickers.

I make Spanokopita, as it looks amazing, when in reality it's easy peasy scrunched frozen pastry 😉

I love to cook a roast for my family every Sunday :)

I cook all sorts of things. I'm quite an experimental cook so when quizzed about what's for dinner the answer is often 'concoction number xxx.' Family favourites are roast beef and Yorkshire puddings with all the trimmings, fish pie, meatballs with courgetti and curries. For desserts our favourites are fruit pies and crumbles (especially bilberry when they are in season) and Nigella's chocolate olive oil cake.

I love to cook traditional and wholesome family meals such as a beef Sunday dinner, chicken stew or cottage pie.

Victoria sponge cake. A real treat as I rarely bake.

My family's fave dish is beef bourguignon

Growing up in a country where we were expats, my family was always exposed to every sort of cuisine. So we love everything from everywhere!
Now that I've moved away I try to recreate something different every now and then for my DH who has very specific dietary preferences. I've made Sri Lankan milk rice, Malaysian Onde onde, Russian Honey cake, Italian lasagna, Chinese pork belly and so many more.
It's a true achievement when I can get him to try different cuisines but stick to his very rigid rules.

we have so many favourite dishes, my signature chorizo spinach and chick pea soup goes down a treat!

I cook something in the slow cooker for the people I love. There's something very comforting about a lovely stew.

I tend to cook homely foods like lasagna and fajitas.

I love to cook homemade lasagna and garlic bread. Everyone loves it, especially the smell whilst it's in the oven :)
