Cooking tonight (Mk4)

[Snoop Puss]

Guess what we didn't have last night, again...? With any luck, third try lucky: tortilla with salad. And if I don't make the banana cake today, there will be no point.

Tonight fish fingers, potato scallops in beer batter, peas and parsley sauce.

Strawberries and cream.

I'm hoping to get away with jacket potato, cheese and beans so I'll only have to use the microwave. Himself is not keen. The last time he endured it was when we had no kitchen! Watch this space ......

[bramble]

Salmon, baked potato and a mixed salad.
Stewed apple and custard for desert.

BBQ and a selection of salads

[greenishfing]

After much deliberation I've taken a bag of prawns out of the freezer. I'm now deciding between prawn salad with Marie Rose sauce, or prawn risotto. At the moment I'm thinking the salad.

Some kind of fruit for dessert, maybe with cream.

Salmon with side salad left overs from yesterday.
Stewed fruit and yog for pud

Well, all change.

I couldn't find any really nice fresh fruit so I ended up making us individual orange jellies with tinned mandarins in them. Obviously with fresh cream. They actually were so refreshing and melted in the mouth.

I also ended up making a spicy tomato sauce to go with the prawns and we had rice with it, so no salad or risotto.

Sausages, egg, chips and mushrooms.

[Snoop Puss]

Hake in a white wine sauce with veg. Some kind of fruit tart or sponge flan for afters.

Also - if I don't make the banana cake today, I might as well throw the banana out.

Turkey breast with gratin dauphinois and a side salad
Pear crumble and yog for pud

Tonight salmon. I think I might steam it to avoid oven heat in the kitchen. My favourite way is to slice a lemon into slices about ¼ inch thick, spread them in the base of a shallow pan, lay the salmon steaks on top, season, and then just put enough water in to come to the top of the lemon slices. Bring to the boil and then simmer covered for about ten minutes until cooked. We'll have new potatoes with broccoli and carrots with it, maybe some parsley sauce.

I've made individual orange jellies with mandarins in again.

[Florence Fennel]

Cheeseburger and chips.

[Bren In Pots]

Lamb steaks, with charlottes, french beans, kale, carrots and peas.

[Nicos]

Roasted chicken thighs with the rest of the dauphinois potatoes and a tomato and cucumber salad (freshly picked from the garden)
