What's for dinner tonight?

After a long day at the grindstone, it will be something easy for dinner tonight. Pork, Cider & Roquefort Burghers with an Asparagus and Mayonnaise dressing. The dessert may yet come out of a bottle.
Yum! Yum!

I haven't posted here before and thought I would wait until I was making something trully amazing, but have decided to go ahead anyway!

Tonight as it's got a bit chilly, we're having home made lasagne, garlic bread and a lovely salad washed down by a gorgeous bordeaux and followed by cheese, break and grapes.

Last night we had lovely fresh home made fettucine topped by prawns done in garlic, parsley and butter and served with a green side salad. So simple, so delicious. Followed by fresh strawberries and watermelon. Washed down with a lovely cold rose. All served outside (of course). We'll definitely be doing the prawns again!

Saturday night ,home made pizza with all the toppings [spicy] and a bottle of jurancon white our favorite,yum,

Last night we had fried black pudding with scallops and caramelised onions. Lovely French bread to mop it up and a gorgeous bordeaux. Finished the evening off with a cheeseboard and more french bread. The black pudding tasted really good so we'll be having this again.

Having grown aubergines for the first time, tonight's dinner has been an aubergine and chick pea stew accompanied by a spicy flavoured couscous.

Strong winds forcast tonight then

Been working the land today and short spell at work too so....Aubergines are still going strong so tonight we are about to have them in another home made Moussaka along with a salade of mixed leaves lovingly cultivated here too. Bread to mop it all up with a glass of something out of the chiller...Dessert is an open tart using our own blackberries and some apples we scrumped...scrummy

so something simple for me pork with garlic and rosemary, mushrooms and a jacket potato turned out nice

Nothing posted here for a while so I thought I'd let you all know. Tonight we're having crepes stuffed with spinach and mushroom baked in a bechamel sauce topped with cheese plus a green salad and crusty fresh bread. Might follow this with a cheese board which we'll serve with dried apricots as 'him outside' (as opposed to 'her indoors' - that's me) thinks he may be allergic to grapes. We'll wash it all down with some red wine.

Sounds good ,but what happened to her indoors

Your food sounds amazing Irena, makes my mouth water.

Thanks

For dinner tonight................lightly baked Omble Chevalier (Artic Char), boiled pots and asparagus. Followed with a selection of fine chesses and a dessert of Macaroons.
Yum Yum.

Last night we had deconstructed chicken kebabs. We'd run our of bbq coals so kebabs were off the menu. So I marinaded the chicken pieces in tomato puree, balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, oregano and garlic. Then dry fried them quickly. Served with tabouleh and salad. And of course french bread and rose wine.

Last night we had clams in a tomato sauce with fetuccine (not hand made ). Claims were not like the ones we're used to in UK and came out a bit tough. Will have to try again to see if it can be improved.

I won a loin of pork (turned out to be a loin and another big bit) in the local Lotto and it has been sitting in our freezer taking up space. So, I decided to invite some friends round and we had.......a kir in the garden before coming back inside for an entrée of smoked mackerel paté with side salad and pitta. The Plat was the pork which I had in the oven for hours (and one of our guests sliced it up) with apples and onions which gave a lovely caramelised accompaniment along with apple sauce and onion gravy. Green beans, carrots and mini yorkshire puddings (yes I know they go with beef...) went with the pork. The cheese board was St Nectaire, Cantal, Super Lioran, Laguiole and Chevre de Poitou and we retreated to the garden for mini trifles served with coffee and chocs. A selection of wines flowed thoughout. Not bad I thought, seeing as neither of us eat meat.. ...... 6 hours later everyone went home!

......oh, and I forgot to say roast Amandine spuds which we grew.....I even bought duck fat to roast them in........they were scrummy!

....Aligot, baked beans (tarted up haricots blancs à la tomate) and mushrooms cooked in the oven with crushed garlic, sprinked with sea salt..........my kind of comfort dinner.
