Revived the last of the curry that I had and used white bread as a poor man's naan. It works pretty well, but it loses its structure more easily than a flatbread.

I'm thinking my next chicken dish will be using some sazon I found in the rack to make some chicken (I bought some a couple months ago, but I couldn't find it when I finally had time to make jacket chicken).

Had to. Was shallow frying them in place of the breasts the recipe called for and thus they needed to be flat, and the skin would have screwed up the searing. Either way the bones/skin went into a freezer bag to be used for stock at a later date

 

[CHARizard]

Orange Chicken with an orange marmalade as the base for the sauce. Was pretty good but a tad sweet for my tastes. I also made Japanese curry a few nights ago but I froze most of that. House Foods curry mix is pretty good in my opinion and you can stretch it with lots of potatos and cheap cuts of meat (I used pork). Freezes really well and with rice you can have a very cheap but filling and tasty meal.

Great to see you are being resourceful.
You can also collect chicken skins separately and when you've accumulated enough, make rendered chicken fat. Butter is hard to find at the moment, at least for me.

I've been getting food delivered from local farm shops rather than risk supermarkets, and therefore I've been cooking lots of hearty stews and roasts. The meat is expensive but incredible quality, the veg are cheap and fucking ridiculously huge: I could play baseball with one of the parsnips. I've also been going crazy with potatoes, as there's a 20kg sack to get through between two people: baked, roasted, chipped, mashed, colcannon, potato bread, hassleback, champ, confitted... I have truly embraced the ways of my people, so much so that my potato ricer broke. We're going to be fat fucks when this lockdown is over. Would kill for a whole chicken though, they're hard to source for some reason.

The chicken breast is currently defrosting for my personal dinner, and the only question for me is what exactly sort of side to pair with it, since this week I'm trying to keep a promise not to go out because some shitty doomer on the news said shit gets real this week.

I'm thinking rice, since I still have some and it'd complement the sazon that I'm using. I'm really hoping we have a potato I can use though for oven baked fries, though we've been using them as of late.

 

[Stormy Daniel's Lawyer]

Last night I baked a batch of Kouign Amann pastries. Only took me 4 1/2 hours..They came out amazing!!! This was my second round of them..Well worth the time and effort.

 

[Trombonista]

Just finished making charoset for tomorrow's seder. I used Juici apples and pecan pieces.

 

[Afinepickle]

Did a leg of lamb yesterday. Using the leftover meat for Gyros.

 

[Adamska]

The chicken seasoned with Sazon was perfect, and I found this massive fucking potato that I cubed into roasted fries.

Holy shit I feel so smart I don't feel bad about how tonight was apparently taco night this week.

Black bean soup in my slow cooker

Chocolate pudding with smashed up Oreos and toasted pecans.

Black bean soup in my slow cooker

Recipe please!
I made cottage pie, cauliflower-cheese and mushy marrowfat peas: I am loving this enforced return to 70s British cuisine.

 

[Slimy Time]

Since Wu Flu has hit and everyone in my home wants to minimise going out as much as possible, bread and desserts have been baked/made almost daily (because fuck buying bread which other people have fondled) - Sourdough, Malt Loaf, Bread Rolls, Clafoutis, Tiramisu...just a non-stop factory of fattening home made desserts and bread have been coming out almost daily.

I made none of those. Instead it's my usual slow cooked beef stew last I remembered. I do plan on making this chocolate pudding/mousse or chocolate cake, in the next few days though. The lunatic baker of the house is getting tired of doing desserts and bread, so it's my turn to take over.

 

[Syikeblade]

Shakshuka with peppers and ground turkey with feta, and for dinner we had chicken burgers with sweet potato fries.

 

[GeorgiaGuidestones]

Made American Goulash to use up some pantry items. I added carrots to cut down on the acidity of the tomato sauce along with mushrooms.

Instead if the standard elbow macaroni, I substituted Fusilli pasta. Also added red pepper flakes for some heat. It turned out really good. Next is the traditional Hungarian version.

Chicken breast stuffed with whatever herbs I had, green onion, bacon ends and goat cheese.
Turned out pretty juicy.

 

[derpherp2]

Seared Salmon with steamed brocoli on some teriyaki sauce shit I made by mixing random shit with soy sauce and sugar.

It tasted good but I need some more veggies to add to it.
