For health reasons I have had to ditch chick peas, raw tomatoes, citrus beyond peel, asparagus, all crustaceans, red meat meat and offal which I love. I have drastically scaled back on lentils which I cannot bear to wean myself off. The fave ex MsH who I often cook for has really bad coeliac’s disease.

This is making cooking a pain finding things we find appetising. I am moving away from my beloved curries. A while ago I had a crack at some West African food, a feature of which is using finely ground peanuts (I add cashews as well) and spiced up yoghurt to case chook thighs and pork ribs and some veg (worked with fennel and Asian greens as well as pumpkin slices). Gunna have a go in the next fortnight and report on outcomes.

Beyond that I will do some sousing and some Cajun, French and Italian. It sounds ridiculous but appetising food is an imperative to keep us ancients eating and weight on.

GUH, try this website Supercook: recipe search by ingredients you have at home

You list your ingredients and it suggests some recipes from that list.

Had Korean BBQ the other day. Worked out about $35 a head for 6 of us- and we plowed through a heap. Then we rocked across the road the the local deli and picked up a bulgogi and kimchi from the local deli to cook up later. Yum.

I used Nature's Way vanilla plant protein cause it is what we had in the house

Pretty sure it became a NZ accent by the end haha

I would defs going to Ramadan Nights in Lakemba, awesome atmosphere & delicious food. My fav is a chicken wrap, the bread is like burrito but lighter & the filling is spicy but not overpowering.

Give me your absolute best toastie recipes.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

I was addicted to asparagus and cheese toasties. Always parboiled the spears and quickly grilled before assembling. Often used three cheeses as well. Delicious.

My first pea and ham soup of the year is done. Chucked in a few spuds and a lot of chinese cabbage towards the end. Cannot wait.

Cooking is not my thing.
If you visit, well there are some local cafes/restaurant and take-aways. Just preferable for you that you do not stay more than three nights
Friends are encouraging me to cook and just invite themselves around.
Thank goodness for the support of friends.
I'm learning from RecipeTin Eats - A Food Blog Serving Up Quick & Easy Dinner Recipes.
Last night's menu:

Irish Beef and Guinness Stew

Irish Beef and Guinness Stew is arguably the king of all stews!!! The Guinness gives the sauce an incredible earthiness and depth of flavour, it does not taste of beer at all. Must try!

Ultra Crispy Smashed Potatoes

Meet your new favourite way with spuds – crispy SMASHED POTATOES! Crazy crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, they taste like buttery french fries - but crisper!

with roasted cherry tomatoes​

Air Fryer broccoli with oil, garlic and cheese​

Not really a recipe but can recommend Firewater Grille in Perth. Awesome meal. Little pricey but it is what I would consider fine dining.

I cant go the anchovies though. I can eat them but they are not my favourite.

 

[Ticky009]

I made this the other day. Very nice and heaps left over to freeze. The sweetpotato is a game changer flavour wise.

lol… yep anchovies are an acquired taste in this form, but otherwise in stews and even Asian hotpots they add depthto flavour

I am also experimenting with baked cheesy artichoke pasta and the same crisp prosciutto strips. Will probably be a fail… if a spectacular one will report.
