The Mock Turtle

They're so tasty. Definitely worth cooking!

Gosh, so much deliciousness! I too have the gunpowders on my list.

Rosa, you always remind me that I want to eat more lentils. I need to plan some specific dishes.

It's a public holiday here today which I forgot so we bbq'd all the veggies plus halloumi & merguez to have as tartine toppings. Instead D made himself an enormous sandwich with one of everything and was then too full for anything more!

Ooh, that looks good!

Oh, absley. That looks great.

Those gunpowder potatoes look amazing, I've just googled and bookmarked the recipe. And Pip's fish hanging over the edge of the plate

I have eaten toast for all 3 meals today. I mixed things up by putting beans on the toast at lunchtime, and had Coco Pops for my starter this evening. Tomorrow should probably include more veg.

There's a bunch of spices to add at the ebr5 that I don't have, I toasted Fenugreek seeds with the other seeds, and just used garam Masala instead of the kebab thingy.

OMG make the grilled mushrooms with thyme and mozzarella from Orangette!!!!

I made Ottolenghi's spicy chicken and split pea tray bake tonight, with thighs instead of legs, and a lemon instead of an orange (as I didn't have any). T's girlfriend recommended it, and it was so good!

oooh that looks very good.

The chicken skin looks delicious! So much garlic too

It does look good! I have split peas and chicken bits!

Pork chop n cheese
(I defrosted some tomato rice and added tromboncinos, it went a bit soggy, ignore that)

This was out of a jar and disgusting - way too salty. At least I added plenty of vegetables.
Our afternoon tea last weekend (the battenburg was bought but we made everything else)
And pasta. It has finally occurred to me that I can cut a garlic bread in half before cooking it, rather than eating the whole thing.

I have the same cake stand as you Heebs.

Lovely afternoon tea, Heebs. And yours looks amazing, Rosa.

Here’s the soup I made last night.

That looks so fresh and inviting!

I am pretty sure I copied you when you bought it. I still love it, and my cup and saucer.

That soup looks so fresh and lovely.

What are your oven chips of choice please? They look like nice ones!

Oh I have loads of split peas I bought to make Pease pudding then mr changed his mind! I might try that chicken Rosa.

S’s school do a cook a long online with one of the teachers every week, we haven’t done them all but they are quite good fun Friday activities when the weathers rotten. Yesterday was pizza, she made the dough, the sauce and picked her own toppings (chopped mini sausages, a chopped up scotch egg, grated cheddar and mini mozzarella balls )

It looked really good and she said it tasted like real pizza, they started the cooking in a pan to crisp the bottom then moved it to the oven which I’ve never done before.
