Southern fried chicken burgers with hash browns, plot corn on the cob and a homemade chilli mayo.

Luxury fishcakes I was given at work because the company was not happy with them and pulled them off sale.  I would guess too little fish, as they did seem a bit stingy in that department  :lol:  Never mind, they were free and not bad for all that.  At least they give all this kind of stuff away to staff, rather than shove it in the bin.

We had various plot veg with them, some from the freezer, some not.  There was roasted beetroot, greens, cabbage and beans  :)

I find adding some decent dark chocolate to the chilli really helps too!

That does sound particularly disgusting!

Tonight we had a variant on lobby & dumplings – a potteries version of Lobscouse I suppose. Diced stewing beef with onions, garlic, carrots, swede, leek, potatoes, sweet potatoes and suet dumplings. Rib sticking good. The sweet potatoes aren't traditional.

I think it is asking a bit much of them if you are pairing them with suet dumplings.  Even tofu and brown rice would struggle with that mission and I know they are your favourites  :nowink:  :lol:

Sounds distinctly like something from over the pond, they do that sort of thing with gravy too.  :wacko: Coffee goes in a mug with the food not in it  ::)

Well my nose is still running but at least it's doing it for a reason now  :nowink: I mixed some reapers, naga vipers, datili , a few hot lemons and some green finger chilli's I found in the bottom of the freezer. Good burn profile from lip to ear but still a bit too flora for my liking. Assuming it doesn't melt the pot it's cooked in there's enough for a couple of days.

We had the remaining lobby without dumplings but extra boiled potatoes added. Rather nice as everything was ours apart from the beef. Actually quite small amount of meat - but plenty of meaty flavour.

A friend dropped by today after her holiday in Germany with a gift of some Bockwurst and Weissbier. Pasta plans went out the window and I used the penultimate plot red cabbage of the year to make a quick pickled cabbage with Bockwurst, mustard caraway mash potato and roasted apple slices.

Tonight is going to be a clearing out the fridge tea.
Eldest asked for chicken curry with rice so that'll be shared with Husband. Somehow I doubt they'll be happy with one chicken breast between them. But we've lots of (10p for a pack) mushrooms. I'll make stock with the carcass so I can pick the scrappy bits off once it's cooked and add them in too. Which will all bulk that up. If only they'd let me add lentils.

Youngest doesn't like curry so they'll get a taste of curry so they don't get used to the idea of saying no and never having it again. Youngest can have rice and Lincolnshire sausages (reduced to 30p for 454g) in ragu so I can smuggle some vegetables into the little sod. It sounds such an odd mix but youngest loves rice, ragu and sausages and it's their choice.

I'm making broccoli, carrot and celariac soup. Omn nom lucky me nom.
