Afternoon tea - scones with jam and seedcake, mostly already devoured. Dinner - Roast duck, cheeses and breads, pork and mushroom pie, eggs in baked celeriac, salad, apple tart.



For the road.



Bo kho - Vietnamese beef and carrot stew with Vietnamese style baguette



Also made a basic sourdough boule while the oven was on



I think I love you. Did any of your friends eat 4 lembas breads on the way out the door?

I hate making lasagne. Hate hate hate it. No sane person can do it and not think "You know what? Next time I think I'll just buy one or go out and order one instead". You may have changed the game with this. Although it did feel like I spent 3 days putting it together it was oh so worth it.

I was worried that, despite my dish being the right dimensions, mine was shallower as it seemed like a lot of ragu/béchamel. Greased up an additional smaller dish for that eventuality, but it fit (just)!



Although the bottom of my oven didn't thank me after cooking - slightly overspilling. Oops.



Mine flumped a bit when plated but that's my fault rather than the recipe's - a combination of too small a dish, clumsiness and apparently buying the world's stringiest mozzarella (trigger warning for lactose intolerant gwspooners - this uses all the cheese).



Absolutely first class though. Great recipe despite mine being not as pretty! :drat:
Ah! I'm so glad you liked it! I think yours looks even more delicious than mine! Pretty food is great for pictures, but messy food is great for eating!
Hooooooly crap you make some amazing-looking food! You're super talented, and I want to eat every single thing you posted!


I baked some stuff.

cherry-nutella banana bread bars (basically a brownie and banana bread's love child)


the best red velvet cupcakes I think I've ever eaten (I attribute some of that to the fact I used duck eggs)

And then a big fat steak.

I wasn't a fan of the short ribs but I think that might be because I'm not a fan of them in general anymore :saddowns:

Eggs. Aside from being piss-easy, they really show off the control you can get with a sous vide cooker. There's also the thread:

That's absolutely wonderful. Much respect :worship:

Two daft things from the last couple of days:

An exercise in Keep It Simple Stupid - linguine with chorizo, rocket/arugula, capers, lemon juice and...nothing else (apart from s&p). A total keeper for stupidly easy tastiness.



A bit more involved since I was looking for recipes to do something with some Manchego cheese I'd been given (and never had before) - Lamb-Stuffed Aubergines with Moorish Spices and Manchego Cheese (looks like I'm on a ground lamb and cinnamony things trip at the moment ;)):


drat that cheese be oily.


Much better when scooped away from the slick. Smelled so good I completely forgot to put them with the salad I'd put together...

I made a nice meal tonight. I made risotto. I didn't use arborio rice, I had some short grain rice I figured would work just as well.



Not bad for my first time. It was delicious and savoury but a little bit hard still.

I threw this in with the oil and let it bloom a bit before adding the rice.



Roast chicken



Plated with acorn squash and greens. I hate greens, but my husband makes me eat them. I'm not great at plating, and I was hungry.



It was pretty delicious. It was ruined halfway through by my husband bringing up an argument from last night, then getting all mad at me. Oh well, I guess I'm nourished.

I dont think you're obligated to eat greens if you don't wanna if you can put away half of an acorn squash in a meal. That's fiber and vitamins enough to make you a well oiled poop machine for the rest of the week.

Everything looks lovely, even though your chicken seems to have sprouted a fork. I also have the same knife block in my parent's condo (the one with the stick dude), I hope to burn it one day. Nothing personal, you see, I've dropped it on my foot twice.
