Over a weekend I often cook a big batch of something - bolognese, casserole, etc. I freeze most of it and these then make handy meals during the week.


Also:


Use lemon juice to clean your family jewels, it may sting a little - but they smell nice and zesty afterwards.

I was going to add this myself! I must concur this is v yummy - also it is good to add some coriander. (here is a top tip courstesy of "Cooking like Mummyji" - when you buy fresh coriander, wash it and chop it up and put in freezer - it still works fine).

Hi,


Just a quick hint. When we are prepping salads we place ground black pepper on the salad leaves. when the leaves are laid put the fruits (tomato, peppers, cucumber etc)on top. Then place finely chopped coriander (chopper available from Ikea) on the top. Garnish till you have reached the top of the bowl, cover in cling film and leave in the fridge at a low temp for a hour. the flavour of the coriander, herbs, and pepper make a really tasty salad.

Tonight I'm cooking - all from Lordship Lane.


Steak (William Rose), mushrooms, spicy sweet potato wedges, steamed purple broccoli (Pretty Traditional), cheese (Cheese Block) and a Zinfandel from Green & Blue. Also made some lemon curd this afternoon - lemons & sugar from SMBS, to blow away rainy Sunday blues.

Marmora Man -


I have mean to comment on several other threads about your patronage of LL small establishments (as opposed to the Supermarkets) and say how,although you probably know already, how On Your Side I am..


but that list there tipped me over the edge - I applaud you sir

Oooooh, can't resist, just to annoy Sean here's my list, almost all the ingredients from Sainsburys this morning (last minute lunch guest)


Soda bread and smoked salmon

Sirloin steaks on rosemary potatoes and lemon rocket salad

Chocolate brownies with hot chocolate sauce and Green & Blacks vanilla ice-cream.


To save me from going straight to hell for supermarket usage I should say it was all cooked from scratch and the soda bread was homemade with buttermilk from SMBS.


Hee hee

I have just had homemade fajitas (chicken with peppers and red onion) - served with homemade guacomale - all ingredients bought at Sainsbury's (yes, shoot me, shoot me now) ... and very yummy indeed. The one redeeming feature is that aside from the tortilla wraps, all ingredients were organic.

Twas almost as good as last night's meatloaf with organic streaky bacon wrapped round it - a recipe from Mama Cherri's Soul Food cookbook. Oooooh it was lovely - and I convinced myself that with celery, peppers, garlic and onions all included it Wasn't That Unhealthy Really.


And can I just add... I was in the queue at Sainsbury's last night with Other Forumers. I shall reveal no more....

    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.      
    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
    • We can't use our kitchen for a while and so looking for an air fryer to plug the gap. Please let me know if you have a good one in working order.  07702 305 310 Thanks
