I will spend the afternoon at friend who likes cooking and is a new dad. Every couple of months we take some time to make batch meals to fill up their freezer. We will attempt cassoulet for the first time.

While the cassoulet is in the oven we will also do snert for the freezer.

If there is time we will make a soup out of the leftover celeriac from the snert to have a starter tonight and for them to eat tomorrow.

Last night - fish pie and courgettes and carrots. Banana slices and pistachio icecream scoop with flaked almonds.

Tonight cauliflower with a lentil and cheese sauce, plus potatoes and carrots. Banana slices, yoghurt and almond flakes for pud.

(My daughter did the puddings both nights....am I cheating?!)

Monday: Broiled fish heads marinated in soy sauce, miso, garlic chili sauce, and brown sugar
Today: Turkey dan dan noodles. The Sichuan (Szechuan) peppercorns are still making my mouth tingle.

Chanko soup! (without the rice or noodles) https://www.japanesecooking101.com/chanko-nabe-recipe/

I added Nappa cabbage, Carrots, Green onions, Chicken thighs, Daikon radish, Ginger and Umami dashi or sorts.
Made a pot full so it's going to be my dinner for a while.

Cooked bacon weaves on the grill. Made BLT's with the last of the fresh tomatoes from the garden, sliced onions and homemade high protein mayo.

It's on the stove right now, had 5oz of 93/7 ground beef left over the other night, so cooking that up with 4 skinless chicken legs and making a nice pot of spaghetti sauce. Not sure if I'll make ribbon noodle zucchini to go with it, or elbow mac, but either way, the house smells like heaven right now!

poisonesse · October 25, 2019 8:16PM

This is the rosti recipe I use. I pre-cooked the potatoes pricked with a fork (to allow steam to escape) in the microwave for a few minutes instead of parboiling.
