It's a lamb weekend by the looks. Lamb rump steaks in a balsamic and mint crust (waitrose reduced but almost good enough to pay full price for  ) with new pots, pea and green beans.

The last zuppa de zucchini tonight.     The courgettes are gonnas.... The top of the workshop was white this morning!

[New shoot]

Soy braised aubergine and pork, noodles and stir-fry veg.

Steak, chips 'n' peas with tomatoes and garlic mushrooms. And lovely it was too

[madcat]

Mixed leaves (pak choi, chinese leaves and beet tops) braised in soy, stir fried veg (courgette, stalks from the pakchoi, carrot, cashews, onion) with spicy sausage.  Noodles for OH.  Very tasty, better than expected for a bit of a scratch meal.

Tonight I am getting a beef in red wine stew into the slow cooker to get on with it. Cabbage and steamed spuds to be added later.  I might do dumplings instead of the spuds .....

[New shoot]

Not sure exactly what except it will feature sweet potatoes as I have some to use and plot greens.  Hmmmm a plot for veggie curry slowly forms as I have just remembered there is yogurt in the fridge and naan in the cupboard

That's terrible, keeping your poor nan in the cupboard. There should be a law against it!

Tonight it was the remains of the cooked lamb I took from the freezer on Tuesday made into a hotpot. Most welcome after an afternoon of heavy gardening.

More making space in the freezer needed for tomato sauce ....  ahh a bag of last years leeks!  Right, chicken and leek casserole.  Pity I didnt do this last night and soaked some beans ...     this year's borlottis should come up quickly .....  Couscous on the side.

No idea as I’m orf out, & hubby decided he didn’t want the shepherds pie so I guess since he took bacon out the freezer he’ll be having bacon,egg, chips & beans lol

What a tricky one.. shepherd's pie or bacon, egg etc. He'll be off work with stress having to make choices like that.
Beef stew or lobby and dumplings bubbling away in the kitchen. I daren't ask but either will be nice after a day playing lumberjack outside.

Pasta.. sans flavour.

Lol he’s had to retire after a lifetime of tricky decisions like that since he was 14 😂

Last night was a HM chicken curry from the freezer, a roll likewise and some chopped tomatoes, cucumber and onions from the plot 

Tonight? I'm thinking about putting a load of veg/pulses in the slow-cooker and leaving it to do it's thing 

[madcat]

Going to be back late, so I think I'll leave a veg noodle soup ready just to be heated through when we fall through the door.
