Maybe seven of us should get together and think of one dish each a week that we can all make.
I feel empathy with my mum who cooked pretty much the same thing every week (roast beef on Sun, bubble and squeak on Mon, steak and kidney pie on Tues etc). I do do new things a lot but am turning more frequently than usual to old easy mindless favourites plus new things just seem to follow the same pattern, ie select main ingredient that needs eating, think about what it goes with that I have, elect standard format for those ingredients such as pie, pasta, quiche, risotto, burger, soup, noodles, pick a condiment/sauce/punch of flavour suitable to the geography of that format, consider whether it might want egg/cheese/pangratata/herbs on top, work out if I can get some of this massive backlog of carrots involved, fall asleep.
I love seared tuna and now want it but have a backlog of fish in the freezer I need to burn through before it gets...freezer burn.
