What are you making for dinner?

I just pour it into a bowl (warm it a bit to pour for ease) which lives in the fridge with a cover on, little bits of duck don’t matter, I would pick out any large bits - duck fat roast potatoes are LUSH....Note to self - STOP SPENDING MONEY !!

Any i was given some LO duck fat from the tin a while ago on Freegle from a french lady. I just took a jar and she scooped some in for me. I didn't bother sieving anything out but didn't keep the fat more than a few weeks (used it for roasties so hoped if there was anything nasty in it, the high temp would nuke it).
Can you perhaps freeze it in small portions?
Dinner tonight was super easy gnocchi with pasta sauce. Topped mine with grated parmesan.Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Thanks both
It was absolutely amazing. Have leftovers for lunch tomorrow and 2 portions of red cabbage left for freezing. I didn't pay that much attention to the cabbage, didn't use recipe just did it out of memory and it had turned out best one yet😁
I poured fat that was left on the pan from oven into a jar and I'll put that in the fridge for roasties next week, and freeze some from the can then.
Thank you for your advice. It is very appreciated!4 -

I had a packet of peppered smoked mackerel nearing its use-by date in the fridge, so I made some mackerel pate with granary toast for lunch.
Mister CJ has requested pie for supper, so I have just made a batch of pastry. I’m thinking of corned beef and onion for the filling, maybe.6 -
