The Sunday Dinner Thread.

[NoMercy]

So what are you having for the most celebrated meal of the week?

I'm cooking (though not until much later on tonight) racks of lamb, roasties, glazed carrots with fresh chives, broccoli and another veg - but for the life of me, I can't remember what it is!

I'm doing a starter of goats' cheese and stilton stuffed mushrooms in tempura batter.

This will be served with my nomination for wine of the week: McGuigan's Aussie Merlot, currently on offer in Tesco at £5.99. An ideal wine if you like heaps of complexity, warmth and depth from a red. :-)

Anyone seen Newsdesk? He loves my threads about food and wine.

Still eating my very late breakfast, so not sure what comes later - possibly a stir-fry, there's only me in today.

Going to watch rugby this afternoon, so will leave a beef casserole in the oven for when we come home. Think we will need something warming.

[zzxxee]

comfort food is a must when its cold x

[NoMercy]

I agree zzxxee, there's nothing like a bit of comfort food.

Tiggs, you deserve extra lashings of beef for letting your mum take the car! ;-)

Enjoy, barb. Will you be making dumplings?

Boxy, that's a nice healthy choice! I might cook a stirfry one of these days.

I'd be full up after just the starter! How can anyone eat all that in one go? I'll have a doggy bag for the rest...lol

[anneasquith]

food.

[sadielady]

Will be making dumplings, mashed potatoes, green beans. Carrotts, onions and celery already in the casserole

[tiggerblue10]

Well I hope she's got extra portions of beef AND Yorkshires NM. Yorkshires are the best thing about a roast and they have to be smothered in gravy :o) mmmmm

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, troll la la la la la la la la

Pasta, the trick is to just eat really small portions. :-)

Sounds lovely, Barb. I quite like sweet potato chunks in mine.
