Nashville hot fried chicken
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
Totally overfilled and clumsy looking plate, but who could resist "sauce made with lard and cayenne pepper" as a base?
14 Apr:
Lamb kofta, roast peppers, onion and garlic, hummus, fresh pickled red cabbage, and flatbread

Cold cut roast beef, root vegetable mash and pickles
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
Not so much cooking (well, the mash I suppose) more assembling. Didn't eat all of that (obviously) so enough beef leftover for sandwiches for lunch today too.

Baked 'fried chicken' with chicken skin, and chilli sauce
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
Couldn't be bothered with the deep frying malarkey, so shallow fried then finished in the oven. Worked pretty well, if not quite as crunchy.
4 Mar:
Spaghetti alla Norma
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
Bjgger looking addition of cheese than usual as my microplane has broken and I had to use the box grater.

Spiced duck breast with bigos
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
Well, almost bigos at any rate. Used it as a base rather than having the duck through it. Same other ingredients.

Poached beef in onion gravy

Crumbed and poached basa in tartare broth
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
Based on a dish that used to appear (with hake if I remember rightly) at the excellent House Restaurant at the National Theatre - now supplanted by the also excellent Lasdun.
There are small chunks of buttered potato and some greens in there too, making it almost chowder-like I suppose, along with the flavours of dill, capers and gherkin.

Meatloaf
#cooking #food #FoodDiary
This is US style meatloaf rather than the Nigella version with ham and egg, because I'll do anything for l'oeuf, but I won't do that.
I lie of course, I usually make the Nigella one, but wanted to make the pathetic joke.
