New things you've cooked during lockdown

Just about to make a corned beef pie

I'm doing mango prawns tonight. Prawns, garlic, mango chutney, lime; served with rice or noodles.

It sounds like the dregs of your food cupboard all just hoyed in together. Studentesque.

Well that was sort of the idea - making the most of what ya've got in to make something a little different. In essence it's just a quick, flavoursome noodle soup.

Might bash out some burgers tonight. And wedges. Yes. That's what I'll do.

[gabbiadini1]

Misread cooked as cocked

 

[Roman maroni]

Keema and potato curry, tremendous.

 

[mad cyril]

Basic but for the benefit of the bairns we’ve made double chocolate biscuits

Just made some butternut squash risotto. Would normally use white wine but had none so used leeks for a bit more background flavour. Worked really well. Roast the squash beforehand as well which seemed to make a big difference.

Always have a bottle of vermouth in. Works just as well as wine.

Made pink slice with the kids today. Sickly sweet and has sent them hyper.

Did the Sweet and Sour Chicken from School of Wok tonight, it was really excellent. Much better than from a takeaway - just like Als Kitchen's curries.
Dead chuffed.

 

[cornish mackem]

Big pan of chilli ( from scratch and not a jar or packet)
Couple of bags of Aldi own tortillas, grated cheese and grilled.
Sour cream and chive on top.
Amazing and better than the ones you get from restaurants

 

[Arkle]

I've perfected my chicken liver curry (with the last of my chicken livers).

 

[The King of Um]

Spicy Cuban rice, beans and greens, with some home-made flatbread. A success. Am having to watch I don't make the flatbread for every meal, love it.

 

[monkeytassle]

Blarn burgers off. Had crispy pork belly and noodles with pal choi. The 1y old absolutely destroyed the thing.

That sounds wrong but I'm intrigued.

Think there was a thread a while back where everyone discussed their chilli recipes. When I shared a flat with my mate twenty years ago, the lads used to come round after the pub on a Friday night for my chilli.
Rarely make it these days but made a pan a couple of weeks ago and it was as good as ever.

It's a fairly dry curry. Do spice/base ingredients as normal, add in most veg and then the livers. Tomatoes late on to add some moisture. You can use lamb's liver instead, technically any other liver but pig's is too strong a flavour and calf's too delicate. I may move on to kidney at some point.

 

[Thackeray]

Going to have a go at proper samosas tomorrow.

 

[Sandboy]

these last night, bloody lovely
