Presume you trim them first, Grant. (barbaric new world cuisine. tchah.)
At the moment, really piss-easy *cheap* pleasing things are my forte.
At approx 2.30 this morning, I was luxuriating in toasted onion bagels, topped with microwaved scrambled egg and (veggie) bacon. Slathered in brown sauce.
Um-um.
Buuutt, am obssessing over bangers and mash - cooked an especially delish mash the other day - potato and pumpkin, and made veggie gravy in a new and unusual way:
fry finely chopped onions/garlic for ages until they=mush. turn heat up and add red wine/a little water. cook till boiling and slowly add the gravy granules to the pan. mix until smooth.
Pour over the pot/pum mash. scoff.
But otherwise, cheap lazy food -
spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, pepper, cheese.
jacket spuds with anything left in the fridge - but especially blue cheese and garlicky mushrooms.
dahl and rice
(actually, I can cook, but you'd never know from this  )
And Zo - risotto is dead easy, you just have to keep an eye on it, and add the water *slowly*. Try splashing out on a small bag of porcini mushrooms, that way you can use the mushroom water for the risotto - aboslutely delicious. And I can't eat parmesan, and substitute very mature cheddar - which works well and is mundo cheaper.
A thing I like to do to finish it is crisp up some bacon/garlic/finely chopped onion and scatter it over the finished risotto. |
