Got chicken kiev ready to cook but don’t want to stink the place out yet … waiting for the District nurse to call :roll:
tonight baked chicken breasts and a spinach, tomato and fresh mozzarella salad… with 18 year old balsamic… YUM!!!
Faggots, chips and mushy peas for me. Deeeelish! 
I’ve not had faggots for years ,my dad used to make them.Did you make them Mollie ?.If so I’d like the recipe ,don’t think I could eat shop bought ones ,prefer to know what is actually in them .
Sorry lass no, I didn’t make them. They were Mr Brain’s Faggots. That sounds horrible I know, but they are gorgeous and come with a West Country sauce.
However, from what I can decipher, I should imagine they’re made with minced pork, minced onion, salt and pepper, and perhaps a few little herbs, and made up pretty much like meat balls, with egg or flour to bind the mixture.
Here’s a recipe I found online, although there are others as well. ![]()
Tonight I am making my own Minted Lamb Burgers with oven cubed potatoes and beans. Have never made the burgers before, so hopefully it will turn out alright.
Aaahhhh Mollie darlin’ - solved another dilemma - “what I can have for lunch”. I too have a carton of Brain’s Faggots, can have them with a sweet potato, carrot and parsnip mash and gravy.
That sounds almost like my dad made them ,I,m sure he used offal as well in them .Brain’s Faggots [what a name].Don’t knock em till you’ve tried them though I suppose .
Cheesy mushroom omelette today
Italian sausgae in red gravy over rigatoni. and garlic bread.
Glad to be of service, but you shouldn’t need gravy as the sauce they come in is gorgeous. ![]()
Yes Mollie darlin’ but sometimes there’s not enough of the ‘sauce’ to pour over the veg too. Today I’ve taken a chicken breast out of the freezer and when its defrosted will either make a chicken curry or a Chinese chicken meal.
I am roasting a chicken today so meat eater will be kept well fed for several days, just need to do some veg with it for him.
Vegetarian burgers for me trying the linda McCartney ones again, wasn’t keen last time I had them but wondered if it was just a not so good batch.
Oh no, too complicated for me. I’ll just have some food for dinner today. Anything nutritious is fine by me.
Spanish Rice.
I was considering trying what is sometimes known as ‘Greek Lasagne’ otherwise known as pastistio, which saw being made on the food programme known as Triple D and which looks delicious. But my son rang about five mins ago and said he is finishing work at 4 today and did I fancy going to see Elysium. So looks like Harvesters instead. Will try the pastistio tomorrow - using new machine to make the mince of course.
Just a Salad for us tonight.
Going to start a Mediterrean Diet tomorrow (what fun) as my Husband went to the Doctors today about a stomach Hernia and they have told him to lose weight and suggested this diet.
Has anyone been on this Diet before?
As usual I am interested in anything with the word diet in it so I have looked at the Mediterranean Diet and it sounds like my low fat high fibre diet which I am on now.
