So, I spent the day in uni waving off a friend who is leaving and went for a pub meal for lunch. I chose a cajun chicken burger with coleslaw and was disappointed to find that it wasn't home made and smacked of packet pub food.
After rushing around the supermarket, I arrived home just in time to get started on a repeat attempt at the maple and Apple Cake I made the other day. This time I measured the packets before and after so when I cut it tomorrow evening I will post the recipe if it turns out well again.
This bake off was followed by a quick kids meal cook off.
I baked some King Edward potatoes off in skins and then scooped out the middle, mixed in a good bit of mature Cheddar and done chopped chives and re-filled before baking for ten mins more.
This went down well with the kids and just left hubby and me to go.
For us, I threw together a quick thai red curry and we ate it with left over veggie stock rice from yesterday. Satisfying that it has been used but nothing too amazing today. My curry tip is to finely shred whatever veg or meat you use and throw it in last minute, barely bringing it past a simmer for around two minutes. Meat will be tender, veg crunchy. Makes a lazy meal a little bit more special.
So, anyway, we ate, I wrote. Job done.
