Dinner This Evening

[ethandron]

After our naff but delicious fish fingers last night, tonight it will be Chinese takeaway....sweet and sour chicken, beef in black bean sauce, special fried rice, and a chop suey roll, not had one of those for years.
Followed by sticky toffee pud and a dollop of natural yogurt.
Really looking forward to it now that we've found a decent takeaway after our regular one closed.
You?

[EcclesCake]

Bread and pullit, pickled gnats eyebrows and $h!t with sugar on.

Cake Towers is a messy place to be at the moment......

[ethandron]

Up to your usual standard then Eccles...

[Mamyalynne]

Off to Grandson's 5th Birthday party, maybe jelly and cream?

[woofgang]

roast turkey breast joint with fried gnocchi

[EcclesCake]

I feel I am exceeding myself!

[ethandron]

Ooh, fried gnocchi, never had that. Only had gnocchi once and didn't like it at all, very stodgy and cloggy.
Can't go wrong with jelly and cream mamya

[Islay]

salad with boiled potatoes, boiled eggs and ham.

[ethandron]

That's a real winter warmer Islay :/

[viv41]

My lovely OH taking me out for an Italian meal tonight.

[Zacs-Master]

Brisket of Beef. 5hrs in oven. Apparently the leftovers,can be made into other appetising dishes.

[viv41]

By the way Eth, beef in black bean sauce is my most favourite Chinese meal !

[Islay]

I know ethandron but I am not actually able to eat much more than that at the mo. Also I had turkey sausages last night!

[ethandron]

Special occasion viv? We always order sweet & sour and beef in black bean sauce, doesn't matter what else, has to be those two. Mind you I don't think there's any Chinese dish I actually dislike.
5 hours for brisket Zacs, is that the usual time for cooking it? Seems a lot but I confess I know nothing about cooking brisket. We had moose over Christmas and I think that would have I improved with 5 hours of cooking....
Oh heck Islay, I see you have gallstones, I guess that's why you can't eat a great variety of food at the moment. Aren't eggs said to be not the best things in your situation or has thinking changed?

[Islay]

They have good fats as opposed to bad and tbh its one of the few things that don't upset me - at the mo!!

[kirkcudbright]

Making the Portuguese chicken meal that got Ainsley a 10 from Len (Goodman) on their TV programme. We really enjoyed it too when I made it before

[Eve]

Fat is a beggar with gallstones, I remember it well!

I went to the Chinese as well, they do amazing salt and pepper chicken wings so got some of those with some rice.

[jourdain2]

Beef in red wine with carrots, herby dumplings (it's getting cold) and baby spuds - these are for Mr. J2, I'm trying to lose the chocolates over Christmas. :(

[tinkerbell23]

Katsu curry for me & jasmine rice.... Cant wait !!!!

Have wee thai fritters to start... X

[Tilly2]

Burger and chips. (Homemade though)

[pastafreak]

It was salmon marinated in olive oil,soy and spring onions then grilled,with pan fried baby plum tomatoes and creamed spinach.
