Nigellissima pasta and lentils for tea and I've made a spiced rice and fruit salad for work lunches for the next couple of days.

 

Good stuff mate. I'm laying off the meat a bit.

Good man Parkinson. Another meat free day for me yesterday and again today.

 

Double cream btw.

[Christmas Tree 4711]

did you put double cream on a scone??

 

I thought it looked odd. Our lass swears it was clotted cream. Tasted delicious though

I thought he'd just particularly enjoyed them.

What a knacker.

Did the fact that it ran all over your plate not give you a clue that it maybe wasn't clotted? The clue being in the word CLOTTED

Faced with a choice of weighing up the characteristics of cream or tucking in........

It's like there's some eerie force at work in the CT household ensuring that every meal automatically regresses to the "beans on toast" look, regardless of its actual components.

I thought that was a cross section of one of CT's arteries there.

Tomorrow's lunch.

 

Chop in some fresh corriander leaves and a squirt of lime.

[Gemmill 44495]

Have the former, but not the latter. Will chuck the coriander in.

Any recommendations on what I can do with my pork loin steaks?

 

I have several defrosting and quite fancy them with a nice pasta sauce thingimybob.

 

Or a medley of Mediterranean vegetables may be nice.

 

Trying to avoid the very tempting chips and beans.

[Monkeys Fist 42129]

Marinate it in Soy, Hoisin, rice wine vinegar, sherry, fine chopped garlic and ginger and Five Spice powder for 4-6 hours.

 

Then have it with stir fried veg and rice/noodles.

Dry rub of paprika, garlic powder, salt & pepper then fry em both sides until the meat's done. Deglaze the pan with some cider, throw in some chopped apple and then stir in cream (looks like you have a good supply of the stuff) and there's your sauce. Reduce it to whatever consistency you want.

 

Or if you want a pasta style sauce, do a quick tomato sauce (heck, throw a few sundried tomatoes in) with mixed herbs and a touch of fennel.

Did a warm rice salad last night. MrsP initially turning her nose up at it...Ate the lot (even the bit I normally set aside for brekkie).

 

Basamati rice (depending on protions and people) Only boil for 10-11min.

Veg stock

Sun dried toms

red oninions

garlic

ginger

sweetcorn

peas

toms (fresh not tinned to be sliced and diced)

Currants or gogi berries or those other little red berries

Feta (optional depending on waistline).

leaf corriander

lemon juice

soya sauce

 

Cut everfink up while rice is boiling (add veg stock to boiling rice to colour).

Fry garlic and ginger with a splash of soya very quickly (1 min)

Add everything to the warm rice and lashings of a good quality olive oil and stir up

serve immediatmont.

Stupid question

 

Dry rub.

 

Does this just mean putting say 1/2 tsp of each ingredient in a cup, mix it together and then sprinkle onto the chops?
