What did you cook or eat today (August 2023)

[LissaC]

First course for the SIL was farm-fresh tomatoes and cucumber slices tossed in oil and vinegar.

Second course was Pizza Rosa, something I entered in a challenge once (pecorino, onion, and pistachios):

Batch-cooked a bunch of chicken tikka for some upcoming Indian dishes I’ll be doing. This lot will make about 5 curries:

Found some lovely tomatoes in the supermarket and decided to stuff them. Simple stuffing of rice, white cheese, fresh oregano and some diced bell pepper that was hanging around in the fridge. The sauce was basically the inside of the tomato with some added tomato paste. The cooked tomatoes were actually much "brighter", but I had the flash turned on accidentally!

After a bad day yesterday and unable to get into the chest freezer (hubby left something too big and heavy on it that I couldn't move) I spotted a pot of homemade pesto in the small freezer, so potato gnocchi, vegan sausage and sorrel & garlic scrapes pesto became our evening meal (yes I overcooked the gnocchi, yesterday really wasn't a good day).

It was however very tasty.

Ribs were really good:

Having an assortment of delightful biscuits with tea (me) and boozy coffees (them).

Those thumbprint ones are puff pastry, very light.
