Your Favourite Home Cooked Meal?

[Barcon]

Don’t know, ask the Thursday steak freak. I never have a set day for specific meals. I even let my egg yolk mix with beans when having a fry up, unlike Stony the sausage-breakwater ****

Stony. What an egg yolk/bean juice **** he was.

Let's be avin ya Stony!

Just made a nice chicken in a garlic sauce in a cast iron pan on the bbq with grilled asparagus and sweet potato mash.

Do people actually still cook chips in their house ?

 

[Nellies left peg]

Don't ever have "gravy" with my steak, sometimes a "sauce", but often just the meat juices.

Tomorrow will be Stroganoff with a half price piece of fillet steak, 4 of us for under £13.

The steak juice with the juices from the mushrooms and fried tomatoes should negate the need for gravy on a steak dinner I agree totally

Make whatever I feel like on the day, or whats in the fridge, if I am too lethargic happy enough with 5 weetabix or some instant ramen for tea

 

[SPIDERBOY]

Every Thursday?

What happens if you fancy steak on a Saturday?

Then i'd have it on Saturday as well.

 

[BimboBob]

Then i'd have it on Saturday as well.

Does that ever happen? Bet it doesn't. Do you have other set meal days?

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Borderline burnt bacon sandwiches (even better when they are made for you when you weren't expecting them).

Dealers choice on bread type and whether toasted but must include salted butter.

Sauce optional.

Yum yum........

What happens if you are in the butchers on a Monday and see a nice steak. Mmmm...I'd love that for my tea, oh wait...that's Thursday.

Is it fish on Friday?

Roast only on a Sunday?

Why have food rules?

Having a roast on any day other than a Sunday would be weirder, I think.

Beats cooking them outside.

 

[give it to gordon]

A roast

Or any meal with gravy so I can mop it up with bread.

So, pot noodle then!

 

[Eric Wirral]

Salmon, asparagus, cheshire new potatoes and homemade watercress sauce.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

A burnt Chicken balti pie and a pint of flat Amstel in a paper cup.

I even set fire to a tenner and get the mrs to pretend she’s had a lobotomy when serving it.

Perfect meal for settling in in front of the telly to watch the footy.

 

[Nebuchadnezzar]

The good thing about a Sunday roast is that you can make enough to have it two days, and the next day it becomes a Monday roast.

Have to say egg yolk in beans is a no no.

Lockdown has had the benefit of expanding my cooking skills significantly. We eat a lot better than before. I do a menu at the start of the week and 95% of the time it falls out like this:

Monday - leftovers from Sunday with cous cous or rice pilaf
Tuesday - a classic italian pasta based dish - pasta alla norma, caio e pepe, pasta amatriciana etc
Wednesday - either Chinese, Korean or Thai, usually stir fry, chow mein, pad thai, singapore noodles, sesame beef stir fry
Thursday - vegetarian - normally mediterranean/north african, briam, bean salad, ratatouille and the like
Friday - fish - normally monkfish/halibut based sometimes sea food
Saturday - BBQ - home made burgers/kebabs/fajitas, sometimes a tapas type meal based on a specific cuisine
Sunday - could be BBQ too depending on weather, - will roast meat or poultry and veg sides will also be cooked on bbq, either that or slow cooker brisket/carnitas pork

I like the variety and pushing myself to try new recipes and ingredients. If you had told me I would be enjoying Chinese food a couple of years ago I would have scoffed. I enjoy 90% of everything I eat and honestly don't have a favourite although I am tending towards lighter dishes than more traditional 'roast and three veg'.

 

[KS55]

Full works traditional chilli con carne. Can take ages to do it properly with stewing steak put thru the machine to produce small nuggets, minced veg base with carrots, celery, onion which disappears when cooked, beans separate from meat, 70% chocolate , scotch bonnet, guacamole, tortilla chips, basmati and wild mixed rice, salad. Cook slowly for 2 or 3 hours. Orgasmic.
Quick snack: fish finger and bacon sandwich, with seeded batch bread and butter, strong pot of tea. DO NOT SPOIL WITH SAUCE!
