Tandoori chicken, saffron rice, garlic nan, Peshwari Naan, and a mixed platter of vegetable samosas, vegetable pakoras & chicken pakoras, and a couple of Indian beers. The big question is, does one stay at work or bugger off and make a day of it.

If I had that at lunchtime I'd be asleep all afternoon. Then I'd wake up grumpy and that'd be my Friday night ruined too.

A lovely piece of shepherd's pie, very comforting on a cold day. :thumb up: Oh and it helps to say it in an ethnic accent like people from the west country or up north.

Today I had a leftover-roast-pork-and-apple-sauce sandwich.

Yesterday I had a roast leg of pork with actual crackling and everything. Ordered specially from the butcher, it's hard to get a decent joint of pork with the skin still on. With roast potatoes and carrots and green beans.

Proper delicious, it was. And the house smelt lovely all day, too

Just had the most revolting instant sweet chilli Thai noodles. Sort of like pot noodle without the pot; or the flavour. Bloody awful!

There are some right concoctions out there. The best thing is to go to an Asian supermarket and by the dry packs, there are so many flavours and they are very inexpensive. They generally say boil for three mins, but if you put them in a bowl, pour boiling water on top and leave for five minutes they will come out just as well. They are instant after all.

I rather like the Korean Shin Ramyun on a cold night, especially if you put some prawns and spring onions in.

Yes, adding some protein and veg is the way to go. The spicy Korean noodles are definitely a nice winter warmer.
