Just wondering as I sit down to roast leg of pork with crispy crackling.....

[merciasounds]

Does anybody bother with a 'proper' Roast Sunday lunch anymore? Gloucester old spot leg of pork, apple sauce, crisp crunchy crackling, golden crispy roast potatoes (Maris Piper - made from scratch) new baby boiled potatoes with the skins on, cabbage, carrots, petit pois, sage and onion gravy.

Blackberry and apple pie or cherry pie and custard for pud. (All fruit and vegfrom our garden)

Just finished roast chicken, roast potatoes,new potatoes, swede & carrot, curly kale with a nice glass of Sauvignon Blanc!
Sometimes eat main meal in the evening, but as it is so cold today we decided to have Sunday Lunch instead of dinner.
We have always had this meal unless we are at the beach in the summer.

I cook a roast practically every week. This week its roast lamb with roast potatoes (you can't beat King Eddies!) sweetheart cabbage, cauli, broc, carrot & turnip (mashed), gravy and mint sauce. All from scratch (apart from the mint sauce - that's courtesy of Morrison's!
No pud though - I haven't got a sweet tooth.

You've all made me really envious. My hubby works every Sunday till 5.30 and usually goes straight to the pub so no, I never cook a Sunday roast. After reading your menus I will definitely be having a roast dinner one day this week though.

[ummmm]

We have something similar about 3 times a week.

Minus the pudding....

Roast chicken, sage and onion stuffing, roast potatoes/butternut squash/sweet potatoes/onions/carrots/garlic. Cabbage. Petit Pois (peas!). Bread sauce. Gravy. Have just finished washing the dishes and now need a cuppa and a lie down. No room for pudding or cheese and biccies.
