What's Cooking Today??

Yes, you see the word Malagueta a lot here but the Angolans always say Jindungo. I think it depends on the maturity of the pepper. Our friends always give T'other Half a sauce labelled Jimdungo! He loves hot food, I don't, I like tasty food and my throat nor stomach can cope with it. This is not to say I do not like tasty food .. I love cumin and coriander and use them a lot. It is the same with hot liquids, he can drink down super hot tea and I cannot. We can do what our body allows or dictates.

How boring this world would be if we all like the same thing!

 

Roasted chicken pieces ,mangoes and limes with vegetable rice. Had to have some yoghurt again as the strawberries and blueberries were ready and waiting!

 

Breaded cod fillet with baked potato, salad, sweetcorn, pickled cabbage, shredded beetroot and a piece of cheese, hubby has 3 slices of wholemeal bread with his.

 

Sounds nice Logan, I´m livin´ the dream with a salad sandwich, and a glass of something.

 

Thank you @Giri

 

Today and every Wednesday we have vegetarian mince with gravy and all the other veg with a bit of fried red onions garlic and Chilli.
No desserts only on Sunday.

 

We are having home-made Corned Beef & Onion Pasties. Nothing else, maybe a squirt of brown sauce.

 

@Victoria I love corned beef with mashed potatoes but we swopped it for the vegetarian mince not as good but with the potatoes it's ok.

 

BBQ'd lamb steaks with......the first home-grown jacket potatoes At last, potatoes with flavour! Lunches will be salad all the way now that the toms and cucs are producing. Especially Greek salad...yum!

 

Menu del dia ...

Pasta spirals set to the boil, half an onion chopped small, into my favourite cast-iron frying pan. Two large tomatoes chopped, (with skin, life´s too short), garlic, crushed on Himalayan pink salt (nothing less ... obviously) plus sage, thyme and oregano, (just in case), soy sauce, a goodly dash of vino blanco, and a grind of black pepper.
Scoop the pasta into the frying pan, stir for a while, final tasting and serve with smelly cheese.

Serve with sufficient white wine to ameliorate any disappointment.


PS, Noisette, have you tried adding raspberry essence to the vinaigrette?
It made our local pizza parlour very popular.

 

Chicken Casserole cooked very slowly with Veg.

 

I can't eat much in the heat so today it was a banana shake for lunch and it will be scrambled eggs on toast for dinner. That's for me, T'other Half has grilled cheese and salami for lunch and something with pasta for dinner.

 

Friday here is green bin day. So I'll be eating leftovers and whatever is leftover from the leftovers will get binned and ready for pick up tomorrow. Let's see, a tube steak, a hamburger, some potato salad. Oh, and a piece of chocolate cake.

I've got to figure out a way to get my sodium up. So next week's eats might be a little more interesting!

 

Sausage casserole with a bit of mint put in while cooking and all the veg.
