Tuna salad, made with pickled onions.

Peppered pork loin cooked sous vide (and then blowlamped) with roast potatoes, cabbage and béchamel sauce. It was the tastiest and juiciest piece of pork that I've had in many a year.

Gnudi Toscani with Spinach and Ricotta stir-fried in a butter and sage sauce…
Yep, I am slightly addicted to ricotta

Glass noodles with courgette, carrot, beans, snow peas, Swiss chard, Pak Choy, bean sprouts & spring onions in a tamari, mirrin, rice wine vinegar, veggie stock & garlic sauce

An easy meal after the afternoon spent mending fences for a neighbour. But I think I'm going to work on the sauce because it lacked everything really... definitely an English version of something for people not used to spices and FLAVOUR.

Tomorrow's will be SNSSO'ed... watch this space

Ribs, and I followed The Late Night Gourmet’s suggestion and popped them under the broiler for a bit at the end:

After my cuppa tea and coffee, I started out with a half "everything" bagel with cream cheese, red onion, capers, and peppered hot-smoked salmon. Then about 2 hours later I ate a bowl of leftover fried rice. Thinking about eating a piece of leftover pizza to tide me over until dinner.

YMCA today (and therefore, no pics)
A "Spanakopita" but made with sliced courgettes instead of spinach.
This week I discovered a Bulgarian Grocery in my home town. Yes, BULGARIAN!
(C´mon - name me ONE Bulgarian dish - without looking in google)
So anyway, I walked into the shop and asked if they´d got any feta cheese. Of course they had - but everything was in Bulgarian, so I didn´t understand. Found the feta, took it home, ate some - OMG what divine cheese!
Went back the next day to find phyllo pastry. Only £1.50 for 500 gms. Hence , the spanakopita variant!

Tarator. That's thats the only one I can think of though!

Where is this shop? In Maidstone, you mean? Maybe I will actually go in a shop for the first time in over 2 years...

YES!!
Down Bank St, turn left into Mill St, second or third shop on the left.
(PS. Brush up on your colloquial Bulgarian, learn sign language, or bring prompt cards)
