What did you cook or eat today (April 2020)?

[The Late Night Gourmet]

Since you asked, yes: I have been putting just about anything in my Panini maker. Maybe I’m bored, or maybe I’m onto something. I have put homemade burritos, all varieties of bread, hotdog buns, and now the newest inductee: a pretzel roll. It made a mess, but it was a delicious mess.

Pork burger topped with Stilton cheese and pickled apple. The bun and the pickled apple were home made, the rest were not.

Last night roasted chicken with vegetables roasted with the chicken.

My fave meal, chicken with veges roasted. Comfort food.

Beans and wee sausys on toast topped with two free range poached eggs. Soooo good.

We had pizza from the former Indian- now Italian restaurant. I have to say it was great! They clearly add the same love to their pizza's as they did to their curries, so we will keep visiting them once in a while. We will miss the curries though.

This is a vegetarian pizza with mixed vegetables and ricotta, on an amazingly light and thin crust.

Are those chunky potato chips from a packet? They look rather good.

I've no idea what you'd call this. It's a kind of cross between a freaky potato pancake and a weird vegetable burger, made up of largely odds and ends. Potato, swede, green beans, onion, tomato and garlic made their way into it. Surprisingly tasty, I thought, even though I'm biased.

Char siu with fried mashed potatoes and onions (the light was going).

Yes, they are Bookers own brand "Staycrisp" frozen chips. They do stay crisp, even when they go cold. I couldn't make them anywhere near as good, even by triple cooking. In fact, I can only think of two restaurants where they do them better.

Good friday breakfast. Fried egg with cheese on toast, easter bread and fresh orange juice.

Ah - a wholesaler. They are not taking further registrations.

No they are not. Fortunately, we have had a Bookers card for years. They were the first retailer to put sensible controls in place.

McCains do a similiar chip which can probably be obtained on-line or in supermarkets.

I messed up. Did a pickup yesterday. I ordered a bone in, not sliced, 1/4 ham. I did not check the substation email. I got a package of sliced ham and pieces.
Shame on me .
Looking through the pantry and fridge for ideas. Maybe something along the lines of a twisted Mac and Cheese.
