Tonight I cooked..........

[Lardbeast]

With a pint of tea, a small steak and some devilled kidneys, that should do the job for one.

And for pudding, my first attempt at spotted dick. Served with custard of course. In Spain you can’t get Atora suet, which I’ve never cooked with anyway. So I had to use real suet give away by the local butcher (bargain!). I chopped it up as much as possible and it turned out surprising well. This was a trial run for using real suet in my Christmas pudding this year.

Busy with the children.... the toffee is bullet hard !

I like to think that one day I will be a proper miserable old sod and make toffee onions for anyone who comes knocking on my door

Don't forget the chocolate covered sprouts.

I feel your pain. I honestly reckon...I use maybe only 1 out of 5 items I freeze thinking to be 'economical'.
Either I have no idea what they are when I rediscover them again or...something has ripped/container has bust anyway.
Only thing Ive had success with is curry base sauce as it looks pretty fecking obvious in the tub.

This has happened to me before. Try telling the difference between that hamburger mix you made and ordinary mince meat if you don't have any independent way of differentiating between them. I don't know what the brand is in other countries, but in Germany 'Toppits' sell freezer bags with numbers on them. When I bulk buy BBQ meat I split it up into these bags and make a note of what is in each one on my mobile. Not only do I know what is each bag, but I have a quick overview of what I actually have left. It's a bit nerdy, but works like a charm.

If you have the inclination, they also have an app to assist you in your stock control, with dates etc., but that seems a little over the top for me.

Pre rugby brunch before heading down to the pub for the day, a lack of brown is made up by a cacophony of other colours. The little round potato things aren't hash browns but latkas, potato and onion cakes, far superior and tastier than hash browns (found in the foreign freezer section of Sainsburys).

Not really, that was just to tide me over until I got down the pub, its a 20 minute walk you know, I'll have burnt off those calories.

As usual, your presentation is out of this world. Well, straight off a cruise ship (when they were running)

For once however, the risotto looks a little wet. Is that an illusion, and the liquid was thick?
