I did think of doing that afterwards

I made a ragout of lentils, tomatoes and aubergine, and had it with three varieties of pasta (pea flour pasta, red lentil flour pasta and chickpea flour pasta).
That'll clean out the pipes

I made a spicy ricy chickeny thing for dinner. I added too much of the spice that makes the rice turn yellow. No idea which spice was responsible as I sort of threw them all in at once.

Re: What's that on your cooker?
I'm going to make pizza again. I've got some Edam in specially, as apparently it melts much more like mozzarella than cheddar does (without being as expensive as mozzarella).
I shall be having it with chips.

I've discovered that the cardboard disc from a pack of pizza bases can be chucked across the room discus-style, providing the jaded cook with several minutes of Bank Holiday fun.

The polystyrene ones don't work nearly as well.

I made a thick tomato and red onion sauce and poured it over hot falafels for Sunday lunch. Mmm.

Re: What's that on your cooker?
I bought a slow cooker earlier this week. I'm testing it out now on a batch of butter beans a la Butterfield.
They should be ready in another hour.

How many tablespoons of curry powder did you put in that?
I would recommend between 11 and 40, according to taste.

I think I just put a pinch of black pepper in. Possibly a spot of cayenne. I don't think curry powder and falafels really go together.
In other news, the butter beans are cooked, and they're fl*pping delicious. They're to go in something I'm making tomorrow, but I'm having a hard time stopping myself scoffing them right now.
Re: What's that on your cooker?
I slow cooked some steak in the slow cooker this morning. It took 3 hours and it was even more delicious than the butter beans.

So, Lady Countess, how does it feel to be the only woman on the NHotW to be able to prepare a meal from scratch, from raw ingredients?

I'm sure Wendi and CosmicTanya are perfectly well able to prepare meals from scratch from raw ingredients.
It's just that they've got people to do that for them

I've just made a fondue in a baguette (x2) for dinner. Base cheeses, gruyere, white wine. The middle part of the baguette is removed and forms the dipping bread. The sauce then soaks through the bread and you can eat the last of it like that. It's become a favourite in this household.
Slices of nectarine for pudding. We are about to tuck in now.

So you see, Fangirl is not alone in her domestic skills. The ONLY reason I failed home economics was because the class grass saw me and my friend stirring laxatives into the sponge cake of someone we had both fallen out with, and tittle tattled when said girl didn't turn up the following day (or indeed, for the rest of the week).

Yes, that was our TV dinner. While we discussed the items on Newsnight together. Now he's doing something computer game related in his room. I had to relent and allow him because he was the only one without. I'm not entirely comfortable with it. Which is why he has to do things like eat dinner sociably and discuss a variety of topics as well.
He's off to Provence this weekend to stay with a school friend. He now absolutely hates his name, and I'm not keen myself but his braindead father chose it, so it's not my fault.
He seems to have sent out for grilled chicken with a side of steamed broccoli for lunch, so that's quite a reasonable choice I think. He left the receipt for me to reimburse him. I noticed two coconut yoghurts were gone too, and a juicer hadn't been washed and contained all sorts of green things. After football he came back to make almond pastries, and left some for me so the kitchen was nicely scented. They were very nice but I couldn't thank him until later because he was having an evening nap, having discarded all this football related gear all over the living room.
So I think that's ok nutrition wise.
