Soy sauce goes fantastic with salmon. So does some grilled Greek Feta on top (although I know that's not a sauce!).

Got some sausages - thinking about a sausage and chorizo casserole with..err.. some beans or something.

Frying potatoes in goose / duck fat (or roasting) was a big fad a couple of years ago here when Jamie Oliver suggested it on a Sainsburys ad. I find it too cloying though. In my opinion you can't beat roasting potatoes in olive oil (not to mention being better for you I'd imagine). The stock...

This may or may not be news to you established gourmands but I wanted to post based on my recent personal experience. 1 - Potatoes in Chicken Stock If you're boiling, roasting, par-boiling, mashing or whatever - cook your potatoes in chicken stock. The flavour is just outstanding. My...

Wednesday night is roast chicken, roast potatoes, veg and gravy night. Word.

Steak the size of my head!!!

Totally inspired by this, so making pork souvlaki tonight. Just got back from supermarket (where, incidentally Jamie Oliver was filming his latest Sainsbury's ad! If I don't end up on the cutting room floor, I'm the scruffy guy in shorts slurping a Starbucks Iced Caffe Latte!). I digress -...

Got some minced pork - not sure what to do with it but will probably end up in a pan with some diced pots, tomatoes, onions, chillies....

james_t that sounds simple, yet delicious - I'm gonna do that soon! Had rump steak, roast pots and roast veg tonight. Pud was bread & butter pudding with custard and a desert wine!

Thanks for the warning there. Funny though - I've seen cookery programs over here where they've told you to heat a frying pan for a good 20 minutes before using! Now that's excessive, but I only meant heat until very hot. As with all things - common sense rules :chef:

Thought I'd share what we had for dinner last night - it was a huge hit with DW! Salmon with lemon pasta and broccoli I bought two really nice pieces of organic salmon for this. I used the chunkier fillets from the middle of the fish. The rest of the ingredients was: Linguine (or spag or...

Pork chops, roast pots, roasted vegetables and gravy. Simple fare for simple folk tonight!

Had pork chops (in paprika) with roast pots, carrots and peas with onions & bacon. And gravy :)

My wife and I spent a long weekend in Barcelona one year for our weedyverse. On the last night we went to a real nice restaurant and one particular dish caught my eye - translated into English it was pigs trotter in some kind of sauce. "Yeah - that sounds cool" says I - and I order it while...

Had good old traditional Sunday roast beef with yorkshire puds, roasties, broccoli, green beans and loads of real graaaaaaaaaaaavy. Not forgetting a huge dollop of horseradish of course!
