Went out for dinner. This place has a limited menu with some weekly specials. Tuesday is pork chop day. They deep fry the pork chop. It was tender, juicy and flavorful. Served with fries. Also had banana pudding for dessert but I forgot to snap a photo.

300 Year Old British Chicken Curry recipe (from Townsends channel on youtube). Recently moved to a new area with few Indian restaurants, and wanted a simple/aromatic/nonspicy (hot) curry to help usher in Autumn. Ginger, turmeric, salt, pepper, plus lemon juice at end of cooking were the only recipe flavorings. Swapped in coconut oil and coconut milk for butter and dairy milk, used boneless/skinless thighs, included blanched broccoli, added some granulated garlic and dried cilantro to the classic recipe. Chose to grate fresh garlic rather than use powder, which led to a gingery dominance. Served over plain brown rice. MFP recipe calcs about 600 calories per generous serving. Townsends is a youtube channel and retail outlet / re-enactor organization specializing in 18th century Americana. I have made a number of their recipes over the years, although I translate to modern kitchen practices. I was active on previous threads in Recipes section about 2 years ago, getting tuned in again.
Complete, as served, over rice:
Ready to start cooking. Used 1/2 the chicken, only 2 of the lemons, only the large onion:
Underway, about 30 minutes into the stewing phase. I favor a pressure cooker for whole grains.
Curry after addition of coconut milk and broccoli at end of stewing phase:

We went to an English pub. I ordered the English Breakfast but it was nothing like what I've had in England but still OK for the US. I had fried eggs, banger, potatoes, beans, grilled mushroom/tomatoes and English muffin. I didn't eat the bread and only ate about half of the beans and mushroom/tomatoes. I also had a Guinness.

Duck confit pulled out of the freezer from a batch I cooked sous vide last month and crisped up tonight in the air fryer with roast potatoes and carrots. Green salad made with vinaigrette we made a couple of weeks ago and kept in a squeeze bottle in the fridge.

Mishmash of cuisines for dinner: ramen, green beans story fry w garlic chili oil, silken tofu w a gochujang concoction.

Cantonese fish/prawn stuffed (turkish) peppers with black bean sauce. Air fryer tofu. Cambodian roast baby corn. Rice. I made extra of the fish/prawn stuffing which I threw in the freezer so hope that works out for stuffing another batch of peppers or aubergines.

Grocery store sushi for dinner bc I didn’t feel like cooking.4 -
I cooked at a girlfriend's this afternoon. She's a busy single mom who needed some home made ready meals in the freezer so we did a huge batch of Marcella Hazan's bolognese sauce as well as some sausage ragu typically served with gramigna in Bologna. In the evening, we used some of the bolognese sauce to make lasagna cupcakes served with a green salad.

First attempt at cheese souffle as a starter with some salad. Not perfect but not as tricky as I thought it would be. Followed by asparagus risotto.

@LazyBlondeChef, I keep forgetting to respond to you. I love vintage kitchenware... don't get me started. I only have a few pieces of Fiestware - this light blue bowl is my favorite!6 -
Monday dinner (meatless Monday): Veggie rotini Alfredo (spinach and lentils) with peas and garlic toast

Not so authentic dutch meal. Bitterballen (=croquettes containing beef stew) to start but air fried instead of deep fried. Haring salade where the salted raw herring was replaced with smoked mackerel. Google it if you want a different take on potato salad than the typical American version.
