What did you cook/eat today (January 2018)?

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

Ikea lunch of veggie balls and salad with a bread roll.

This evenings meal will be the last of the ratatouille served with something... I don't think we have any suitable bread left so it may have to be served over rice instead.

So last night's ratatouille with eggs for extra protein.

More pork sausage but with cauliflower cheese.

@The Late Night Gourmet I'd be inclined to blanch the sprouts first to get that gorgeous bright green colour, and then pan fry them.

Yes - microwaving also works wonders for preserving green colour.

Tonight we are having 'Spanish-ish potatoes', roast cod and some veg (probably broccoli). I'll post a pic and of yesterday's squid later.

Tuesday night's dinner was curry soup, i.e. the same as Monday night's but with the addition of "my" curry powder, black pepper, crushed chilli, and garlic. It also had broccoli in it. Afters was a couple of clementines, followed by a cup of hot chocolate.

The words black pepper leap out at me for some reason...

The remainder of the cauliflower cheese with horseshoe gammon, fried potatoes, onions, a couple of poached eggs and English mustard.

Oysters in Whitstable on Monday (my portion) - poor lighting. The one which is circular in shape is a Whitstable native the rest are Rocks.

The Whitstable Native was so delicious I had to have another (not cheap at £2.50 each)

The last time I had oysters (as shown above) was in the Shangri-La, Kuala Lumpur about 20 years ago. The Malay businesses have a yearly "take your secretary for lunch day" and many of the hotels prepare special buffet lunches for that day. Luckily, a colleague and I shared the same secretary so we could afford to go "up market".

The Thais do include "hoy" in a number of dishes but it's more akin to a mussel than an oyster.

Are they clams perhaps. I brought some back from Whitstable (photo later).

Only crackers and too much coffee while speaking continuosly on the mobile phone, running through the set.. my PA brought me a sandwich and it's still on my desk..I'm quite sure I'll jump a decent dinner as well.

The cooked crevettes:

 

[Frizz1974]

Zucchini, eggplant & tomato pan fried gently in EVOO with a little chilli then drizzled with pomegranate molasses & dusted in za’atar on a bed of freshly picked mixed greens (suffering from not being watered enough) and topped with a runny egg.
