Cooking Tonight #5

[Snoop Puss]

Lunch: cassoulet with tiramisu for pud. And wines too various... We all enjoyed it but not in the least bit sensible, health-wise.

I followed this recipe for the tiramisu to avoid using uncooked eggs. My creamy mixture came out much more yellow - big yolks perhaps - but absolutely fantastic. https://www.savorysimple.net/tiramisu/

Left overs…yummy yum
I’m sorely tempted to make a Yorkshire pudding though to go with it!

Looks like it's going to be a takeaway from the fish and chip shop tonight.

[Snoop Puss]

Spag bol (again) for us for lunch. Very quick and easy seeing as I've got the bol already made. Plus it looks more like a meal to Mr Snoop than beans on toast, which was the other option I had in mind.

Up the valley for supper.

Tonight risotto. Salmon, sweetcorn and pea.

Mince pies, (Aldi's all butter version, which are totally addictive), and cream.

Joining Himself in a sandwich Tuna crunch for me. Followed by a shop bought fresh cream raspberry turnover. All sounds a bit Benny Hill

I’ve defrosted a joint of pork ( sadly no crackling here) to have with some roasted veg

I might add that I love alioli but have only come across one commercial variety in England in a yellow tub, and it would have put me off for life, if I hadn't already tasted lots of proper alioli and known it was utter crap.

Either make your own from scratch or make it with garlic ,lemon, and decent quality mayonnaise.

Thanks GF the yellow tub does seem to have mixed reviews so I'll keep away from that one.

This evening sausage rolls with pasta, courgette, mushrooms with stilton.

It was a fry-up tonight:- Bratwurst, egg, onions, chips and fried baked beans (best way to do them).

Thanks Snoop.

[Snoop Puss]

I’d not heard of alioli found some recipes on line, it does seem similar to garlic mayo unless I’ve found rubbish info.
Can you point me in the right direction Snoop.

Garlic mayonnaise it is, Bren. Made without egg in Catalonia, with elsewhere. There's a piece with a recipe here, but I'm guessing you can buy it ready-made in the UK or cheat and just add a bit of crushed garlic and lemon juice to mayonnaise from a jar.

Snoop, I could live on mountains of crusty bread and alioli......drool, drool.
