What are you making for dinner?

We're having spag bol tonight. It's been in the slow cooker since 4.30am so will just need reheating later. Inspired by Mrs LW, I'm making gooseberry fool for pud.

Pea and ham soup from the freezer for lunch and corned beef hash for supper, using things up from freezers and stores so I don't have to get rid of much before we move. Gooseberry fool (hope you enjoy yours Jazee) for pudding and a cup of coffee.

We ended up taking MIL out for lunch today, as she was feeling a bit lonely x we went to a lovely pub, that does simple food really well, DH had Lamb and rosemary pie, MIL had a small portion of Cottage pie, both with seasonal local veg, I had a smoked haddock and broccoli bake, with a huge salad, it was all bloomin lovely . After, we went to Havenstreet steam railway, and had a little jaunt on a steam train, with vanilla ice creams as a treat - just a lively day

Supper will be lightly fried whitebait and shell on prawns with HM bread and butter for DH, salad for me - homemade aioli and tartar sauce too

Soup from the freezer for lunch pea and ham with a roll and supper will be the rest of yesterdays hash with some extra added potato and baked beans and lashings of ketchup, real rib sticker.

Was thinking about supper in my local book shop this afternoon. Fancied fish but realised I do not actually have many (3/4?) fish cookbooks. Picked up a copy of Barts Fish Tales*

The wet fish counter at the Waitrose a few doors up had a deal on swordfish steaks which I prefer over tuna so got some

Did the Grilled swordfish with lentils & salsa verde (pg.376) with a side salad. Did it on a griddle rather than grill which is a bit of a faff to clean. Enjoyed it.

*The book is o.k but was expecting it to be better. Any good fish cookbooks recommendations that do not include the words stein or rick greatly appreciated.

Mr S - dunno what to suggest, don't tend to use cookbooks for seafood.

We tend to eat what we or friends have caught and cook it simply, tonight's whitebate was dusted in cornflour and paprika, the prawns fried in garlic butter.

Our recent Bass was BBQ'd with ginger, lemon grass and spring onions.

Mackerel chargrilled, salted and a squirt of lemon.

When we visit Cadiz it's much the same, catch it, kill it eat it

Cereal and toast tonight, as I am on my own and couldn't be bothered to cook anything.

We were away for the weekend, lovely not to cook but the look on husband's face when his haddock and triple cooked chips were served on Friday. Served on a huge plate, with a small dish of mashed up peas on one side, with a small piece of battered haddock on the other. He was on the point of asking about his chips, when I pointed out they were under the fish. Five in total!!
Back to cooking today, I made potato dauphinose, beef, yorkshire puddings, broccoli, carrots, peas and garden green beans. Husband was very appreciative.
