Week 6 Summary
Week 6: 2 February – 8 February
Well, what a week. The UK officially broke down, though whilst the snow started off in the south it didn’t allow me to get away with a snow day. Sometimes being based in Birmingham has its downsides, I had to get in the car and drive to see some clients. Let’s just say that the return trip was a bit hairy, what with driving in a blizzard on non-gritted roads!
Back at home, due to not having any food around I was a bit of of sync with my usual routine. Nothing too amazing this week, though my friend did manage to make a good dinner on Saturday. He was happy with 7/10, unfortunately like many people he had an issue with a chocolate mousse not setting!
Monday: Appalling room service – Greasy Pizza with Salami
Tuesday: Onion Risotto, Squid & Belly Pork, Coffee & Petit Fours at Anthony’s
Wednesday: Chili Con Carne (salvaged from the depths of my Freezer). Also baked some tasty flourless chocolate brownies [I have a slight craving for chocolate on a weekly basis]
Thursday: Toad in the Hole, with yorkshire sausages and a few strips of beef.
Friday: Leftover toad
Saturday: [Dinner at a friends: @RedWineBoy]
Sunday: A misty haze, Beef Pie.
Rib-eye Steak
Steak, nothing seems so simple as a steak. Though I must admit that I usually don’t cook it, yet I’m always choosing a lovely sirloin or fillet in restaurants.
So, for a change and with some rib-eye streaks from the lovely folks at Paganum (the people I lovingly refer to as my meat dealers).
I can honestly say that I’ve never eaten this cut before, a quick bit of research shows that it’s just as easy as any other. Just a minute and a half on each side, in a stonkingly hot pan. Then letting rest for a few minutes before serving. Continue Reading
Yorkshire Lamb Chops
Now, to start us off, let’s just think about where did the lamb chops come from (well an animal, I’m assuming a lamb). Though it was from no supermarket, instead after much research and looking around online I found myself a ‘meat dealer’; well more like an online farmers market.
Thanks to the folks at Paganum, I received a rather big delivery yesterday. Full of scrumpious goodies, and weighing what felt like a ton. My fridge is stocked up with:
Pork Sausages (Lots)
Bacon(Nice and thick slices)
Stewing Meat
Lamb Chops (2 down, many more to go)
Burgers(8)
Rib Eye Steaks (4)
Mince (2X500g) Continue Reading
