It doesn’t get much better!
Only 5000 calories per roll :D
One ketchup to rule them all, and its none of those.
You all need this ketchup in your life, seriously...
Ordered it and other Sauce Shop stuff online for months till I found out Sainsburys do a limited range of their sauces...Ketchup being the biggie.

Enjoyed yesterday for Easter Sunday lunch... Slow-cooked best end of lamb, topped with smoked rock salt, resting on a potato rosti with garlic and thyme-infused vine tomatoes, in a rich white wine and rosemary jus:

Cheers, mate, I think you would've like it:)
Forgot to take pics of the rest of the meal, including the wine, but I guess that's what happens when you're too busy chatting and enjoying yourself!:eyebrows:
Marco.
Looks lovely, but was that just the starter?!
Haha, lol, no... Just an 'arty' shot to show the main ingredients, without the plate being too crowded. It's how I often prefer to do foodie pics:)
After that, the plate was filled with all sorts of fresh veg, and more lamb later! Happier now?:D
Marco.
having a meal from my youf today.. chips, corned beef and baked beans:eyebrows: so not up to standard of these pages but i shall enjoy it immensely
Sounds good Grant, my kinda grub, satisfying
Hear it was.. All snaffled now.
And yes it was good. Branston beanshttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b9d8fac742.jpg
Previously frozen Sainsbury's cod (read the small print they do try to pass it off as fresh by presentation). Seared in an ultra hot pan.
Devil Dust chips.
Seriously enjoyed.
Plus tonight's sun going down. Shot from the lounge through glass.

Yip, Branson beans here too. Their beans and sausages leave other brands wanting too.
Gluten free chicken gougon, sweet potato and red onion bhaji a and a few chips. Organic yom sauce.
Lovely it was. Great flavours.

Interesting mate, and a bit different for you.. What made you go with gluten-free goujons?:)
Also, never heard of yom sauce... Did you mean Yum, or if not, could you link to the product concerned?
Marco.
:wave: :D :popcorn:
Marco.
Pesto made the old fashioned way in a pestle and mortar, adds such vibrant flavour to many foods. I had it stirred into a chicken soup, but its nice added to ratatouille as well.
First try at gluten free pasta.
Nice texture and colour etc. I will leave it in fridge until I need it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0f13f4af56.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ee45c08ecc.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0fbb1a87bd.jpg
Nice piece of cod in a tomato and rosemary sauce with chips on side.

that was rather nice
I know I said I wasn't going to bother posting my plebeian gastronomic efforts but here's a sirloin to keep my hand in

I don’t add to this thread because no one wants to see the Campbells chicken soup I heated for lunch but my wife has been having a go at making pizzas, her own sauces from scratch, fresh dough etc and she got these just right, they were great, slightly crisp on the bottom and soft open pored bread inside. Not your classic thin Italian style, these are deep crust, full meal jobs but with only a little cheese so not too heavy. They’re about 14” diameter.
This one is BBQ sauce, pulled pork(home cooked), sausage, onion and yellow pepper.

rather good they were.. greedy me ate them all:D
Yesh, shooper shanks Grant :D
As others have said, Roy, that looks great and perfectly cooked, akin really to what one would expect to be served in a good steak house:)
Btw, in terms of the sentiments expressed in your opening sentence, firstly it's clear you can cook, so don't do yourself down, but secondly don't cut back on posting here because you feel that your efforts are becoming repetitive...
The answer is to vary your diet and expand your culinary repertoire, perhaps by going more outside of your comfort zone - then you'll have different delights to share with us!:D;)
Marco.
Firstly, John, it's good to see you contributing to the thread, so don't let it simply be a sporadic appearance. And secondly, similarly as I said to Roy, if you want to post more often here, and do some justice to the standards that have been set, then improve the quality of your food intake!;)
And by that I mean, in the nicest possible sense, is there any special reason why you need to have tinned soup for lunch? I'm sure you could do better:)
What about for tea - what do you usually enjoy of an evening, or for Sunday lunch? I'm sure it's worthy of a pic - or if not, make it so! That also applies to everyone here. I'm sure you're not all just junk food junkies...
Anyway, tell your good lady her efforts look great, are clearly done by someone with talent, and much appreciated!
In terms of the pizzas, if I may offer some constructive advice (as an Italian), although much will come down to personal taste, the bases look FAB, but for me there's way too much topping, especially when its 'wet', and which can have the tendency for creating a soggy base. However, that could simply be how you guys like them, which is cool. At the end of the day, all that matters is that YOU enjoy eating it:)
However, if the goal is to create something more authentic, then cut the toppings down (and cheese) by half and showcase the quality of the BASE, as in Italy THAT is primarily what good pizza is all about! Sometimes LESS is more... Anyway, enjoy and tell your good lady to keep up the good work!:cool:
Marco.
