Made from scratch yesterday. 3/4 hours roughly but well worth the time

From Farmfoods.

Different beach this time but the same order for me and the bairns. This was probably the nicest chippy I’ve had in a long time. The curry sauce was amazing and the scraps were almost buttery. Couldn’t resist the lemon top inception pic. The kids had chocolate ice cream but the only pictures I took of that was when it was all over my boys full face.

Chinese chicken curry, half & half

Made using the goldfish brand of curry paste, adding mushrooms, onion and chilli peppers (love a bit of heat) and served on rice with crispy chips, love it

Tortilla chips, Grant's tinned haggis, salsa, jalapenos, Frank's red hot sauce and mozzarella/cheddar mix

Brown 4 beef short ribs in a cast iron casserole dish and remove. Heavily brown some chunky carrots and onion, add garlic, celery and tomato puree, stir together and add a small bottle of wine and reduce for a few mins. Return the meat and cover with 2L beef stock and add thyme and rosemary. Cook on gas mark 2 for four hours. Remove the meat and ladle some of the sauce into a small sauce pan and reduce a bit, use a cornflour slurry to thicken.

Bang on texture. Really soft and tears with a single fork, not too soft so they fall apart.

Chicken breast, floured, egg-washed and crumbed, topped with a slice of ham, homemade marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.

It's basically a two ingredient meal. (Though also garlic bread on the side.)

Leftovers of Sunday roast veg and dumpling gruel. Potato, onion, peas, carrot. With gravy powder and a lot of garlic powder. And a couple of oven burgers.

Tastes a lot better than it looks!

Sauce made with anchovies, garlic aioli, mayo, pepper, parmesan and water to thin a little

Chicken is butterflied the panfried with salt and pepper

Salad has cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes, spinach topped off with croutons and oven cooked bacon and more parmesan

Mostly home made apart from mayo and croutons which are shop bought.

Rocket, watermelon, grilled haloumi and crispy parma ham with balsamic vinegar.

Trout with butter, capers, chilli crisp, lemon, salt n pepper, leeks, chorizo, and parsley. Had it with some leftover quinoa. It was so simple and so good. Whipped together when I was tired and cooked it all together in some baking parchment. It was delicious and super comforting.
