Those look quite nice, Grant. Where did you get them from?:)Quote:

It made a lovely ‘gravy’. Soaked the leftover cold cuts in it and made a great baguette with tomato, grilled peppers and horseradish. [emoji106]Quote:

So.... Spying some of the flowers on the courgette plants, Del decided to make a Tuscan classic, which is fried courgette flowers, stuffed with ricotta, parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil, served with a fresh tomato and basil sauce:

Followed by, as mentioned earlier, homemade steak pie with shortcrust pastry, assorted veg, hasselback potatoes and mash, with homemade gravy:

Awesome stuff, Gary. I'm not a black pudding fan, but the rest looks superb... You can't beat cooking with your own produce!:)

Tacos, proper Mexican style.

Nice plate of leftovers, Justers... Olives look good!:)
Marco.

I regard it as compensation for Waitrose's more usual rip off pricing.:D
Sounds good. Did Shona make it or you?;)Quote:

Me, Shona, ate most of it (delicious)
Bernie and Ozzy (our dogs) ate the scraps.
All in all a fine meal.
Looks fab, Del is indeed fab at her sauces by the look of them.Quote:

Smoked haddock, coddled eggs, asparagus and tender stem broccoli - was actually really tasty as well as healthy.

Oh no, I like that... Nice to see expertly cooked greens, too [and some bugger here who eats them other than me]:D
Marco.
Love a ribeye and red wineQuote:

It's a classic recipe of my mum's, from the 70s:)
Marco.
Great looking chips and a decent sized portion to boot :thumbsup:Quote:

I did try but without knowing the size of the chips at the bottom of the stack it's very difficult, more than 7 ;)Quote:

Looks great mate, But did you really eat all THAT?:eek:
That would do me two, possibly three meals....
Marco.
Improvised meal using bits and bobs.
Pancetta-wrapped Cod with Grain and Baked Vegetable salad in a hot Balsamic Vinaigrette with Spinach.
