What did you cook/eat today (September 2017)?

After looking at this meal I didn't think it was very photogenic so I was reluctant even to get the camera out. But I did. And as it tasted very good I shall post the images anyway.

Progressed to soft-ish meals now! Tonight I tried a Riverford recipe - Indian Masala Carrots and Coconut Lentils with home made naan bread. Half to eat tonight, and half in the fridge for tomorrow

...I note you have cauliflower. It makes a decent cabbage replacement in coleslaw if you shred it finely...

Thanks for the suggestion, @Frizz1974, but I'll be getting cabbage later this week. I'll need coleslaw for another meal later. I'm hanging on to the cauliflower for a cheese soup when we finally cool off in a couple of days. I also want to make a batch of refrigerator Giardiniera. We do like using it for faux mashed potatoes, too.

It was hot-hot here today - well, not Thailand hot, but hot-hot for me. We had a cold plate of leftover potato salad, plus tuna salad, fresh tomatoes, and deviled eggs. I tossed the greens with a champagne vinaigrette. If you look really hard, you can see them hiding under everything else.

Only 30 degC here at lunchtime today. Still 30 degC at 15:30. Very pleasant.

We eat a lot of eggs here (we have to - keep getting them given) and I prepare them in many different ways. How do you prepare your devilled eggs?

The beef was tough. I'm pleased that I only bought one.

Shame.

When it comes to food, I always fall for a pretty face, and I can't think of anything prettier than this Roasted Purple Yam Soup I made last night. This orange circles are blops of habanero jelly (I'll post the recipe soon). There's a shrimp at the top of the bowl, and the edge of two shiitake mushroom slices peeking out nearby. Very tasty, and very spicy (even without the habanero jelly).

You are always making salads look so appetising. Mine always look a bit messy but I'm working on it.
