Sunday Roast on Saturday.
PC Creamy Horseradish really adds something to a roast beef.

Slow cooked beef in beer. These $2.99 lb bits of beef like the 'rounds' and sirloin tip really come into their own like this and are a bit of an antidote for the more expensive cuts on other days.

I have discovered that I can make a very passable Moussaka by slicing an aubergine, spraying with cooking spray and sprinkling with salt and then cooking in the microwave before adding to the other ingredients prior to a spell in the oven.

Tonight I did it with egg-shaped aubergines. They were a little darker inside than usual and a bit more seedy.

They were certainly edible despite not looking as nice but the skins were really tough.

Do they need a bit more cooking than ordinary ones or do they just have tougher skins?

The fried eggplant appetiser and Moussaka main course at one particular Greek Taverna in Crete (brash Malia, but the old part) is so good that it's certainly good enough for the devil.

Tonight's dinner - one of my 'cheat' sauce mixes made of chicken crock pot herb pack with a Tropical (non alcohol) wine cooler mixed and used to casserole boneless chicken breasts.

Gravy bubbled up through the vents and over the rim of the lava dome itself, cascading down the side of the mountain and burying the entire village.

I too had just been silently wondering where Caretaker had gone...please keep up there as we need you! Really very much.

Tonight for me was Cauliflower Cheese and Gammon Steak, quite nice.

We had Vietnamese spring rolls with prawns with a light dipping sauce and a quinoa salad, which subsequently led to me ordering and extra large meat pizza with double cheese.

Clearly whilst your font has got smaller, your belly no doubt hasn't..

Three styles of chicken, Mexican, Thai and Butter.

I tried the Thai version.Very nice but I thought it was more like the chicken served in an Indian place I used to go to back in Bristol.

Didn't cook very well in the oven though. Half way through it was still frozen. I finished it off in a pan, cutting the large chunks in half.

It's just the meat and the sauce, so add rice and green beans, say, and it'll go for at least 3.

It's proper chicken breast and not a bad price given the lack of padding out.
