its gonna be simple tonight - roasted chicken drumsticks with crushed potatoes (a Nigel Slater recipe that is gorgeous and will use up the last of the spuds as I don't grow a lot of m/crop spuds these days) and I've dug up some parsley to make a sauce

that stew sounded good Ollie

Having a big cook-up today as it's raining (again).  So far I've made Chicken Bhuna, Lamb Dhansak, Chickpea and coconut curry, and cauliflower curry.  Will venture down the plot shortly and get some chard for the Saag Aloo.  Once it's all cooled down I'll pack it into boxes for freezing.  Should keep us warm on those cold winter evenings.

Pork and apple butchers own recipe sausages (fat babies they are)  ;D, home grown potatoes, mashed and our own peas. Feels like a comfort food day as (for me) it's cold outside today, but no rain  :)

Think I will do roast beef and all the trimmings, that is if Morrisons have still got their special offer on for beef.  Should dig some horse radish up from the allotment but it is a bit wet today and a bit time consuming to grate it.  Don't tell anyone but am going to buy a jar and buy some parsnips and spinach and save lottie ones for later.  Better get walking or if I stay on here will not have dinner until midnight.

Roast lamb, parsnips, carrot/swede mash and best of all the first taste of our veg grown on the lotttie - broccoli and kale - and it was delicious!!! Even my 9 year old tried them (and he wont normaly touch anything green) and asked for more!! Yipee.

potatoes with Homegrown calabrese and tomatoes all in big chunks seasoned with my herbs, soy sauce, black pepper, and olive oil. I'll be baking them letting all the different flavours marry.

I'll serve with lentils and fried plantains, yum .

I've just checked back...£8 per kilo for oxtail, Ol? Was £4.99 in Birmingham market today 8) I'll buy some on Saturday and today bought a shoulder of Welsh lamb for tomorrow for £3.50...tonite, tho, I'm too busy to cook, so it's cold stuff....1lb camembert, beautifully ripe, at the market = 50p :D some cherry tomatoes and a biiiig bunch of grapes..that'll do me tonite 8)

Birmingham market ROCKS (as the young'uns would say)..I just think it's jolly good value for money :)
