Cooking Tonight #5

[greenishfing]

Tonight will be pea, sweetcorn, and salmon risotto.

Mince pies with a splodge of brandy cream.

Glad you liked the brandy cream, Snoop. We first had it about 15 years ago and everybody decided that they preferred it to rum sauce. You can buy it ready made here, but why pay a lot more for something that takes less than 5 minutes to make and can be prepared in advance. I sometimes vary the spirit or liqueur.😋😋

That reminds me!…I should look out for that Calvados icecream !

Tonight we’ll be having roast chicken with chips- and our very last tin of mushy peas.
( I really must find a good recipe for this and then freeze it in batches)

Minestrone soup. (Need to get some veg down us - it's meatballs and rigatoni for lunch, with some fruit at least for afters.)

Tonight I'm thinking cottage pie with carrots, broccoli and gravy.
