This sounds delish! Would you mind sharing how you make this please? Also how do you consume apricot kernels? Are they ground?

Thanks,its just a simple supper nothing to time consuming.I batch cook a load of wholemeal pizza bases then freeze,but any base or pitta will suffice.Tomato puree,whatever hummus is about (prefer lemon & coriander).Some artichokes in oil.The apricot kernels look like almonds and are whole.Ive got a pack of chilli flavoured ones,but pine nuts are just as nice

Mon: Beef rendang, rice, stir fried broccoli

Tues: Coq au vin (in freezer), mash, whatever veggies i have

Wed: Chicken breasts, cheesey baked potatoes, salad

Thurs: Haddock mornay, new potatoes, broccoli

Fri: Chicken tagine, roasted sweet potato, green veg

Sat: HM lamb shish kebabs, pitta, hummus, greek salad and maybe chips.

Fairy cakes, butternut squash soup and lentil and bacon soup made for lunches this week
Happy eating

Thanks Arran - that sounds yummy! I think I will use flaked almonds as my youngest is still at an age she might choke on whole kernels.

Hi Kitchen Bunny - it usually goes something like this: frying onion in mild and light olive oil, then adding about a tsp each of ground cumin, coriander, turmeric and smoked paprika; also about 3/4 tsp of garlic powder. I'll add some passata and coconut cream to taste, adding salt, white pepper and sugar to taste too. I usually cook the veggies separately and it will likely be chunks of carrot, potato, white cabbage and cauli florets. When done I'll just add veg to the pot along with some chopped watercress so it just wilts. Hope that makes some sort of sense

Hello OS'ers. As always, my week runs from today till saturday, but here it is:

Sunday: Whoopsied chinese meal
Monday: breaded chicken with baby potatoes & veg

It's a very chicken-y meal plan this week! For lunches we have scones, rolls and bread for various sandwich-type things, and a ton of fruit in for snacks (plus probably a banana loaf too if I gather the energy!)
