Yes. I pre cooked the roasties for about 50 minutes. Good job as my bezzie mate and his missus wanted to pop in and they’ve just gone. It means that had I not done all the preparation earlier my dinner could have been late. Now all I have to do is put them back in for about 30 minutes, cooking the sausages and stuffing, and other vegetables, and Bob’s your uncle.
Made a black cherry jelly for dessert, and have some reduced price brandy cream to go with.
Absolute yum. Might even have a tiny drop of wine.
Home made pizzas today, Steven did the bases and we all topped them with what we wanted. Grace experimented not sure the smarties nod tuna were such a good idea but she was determined to prove it was yummy
Will chop up remains of beef joint, peel and chop: carrots, parsnips, swede & celeriac, make 2 quarts of gravy and place whole lot in my cauldron and heat. Will also make a quantity of suet dumplings to add to the stew too, together with pearl barley and some curry spice to make a warm (spicy) comfort food.
