Haven't posted on this thread before but have been menu planning for about six months - I've found it makes life so much easier! Here's my menu for this week:
Sat - wagamama recipe (can't remember what it's called but it's bbq pork with noodles
Sun -Roast pork
Mon HM pasties, HM potato wedges and roast veg
Tues -Chicken curry - probably korma style, HM naan bread, rice
Wed - meatballs, mash, carrots
Thurs - tuna and spaghetti bake
Fri - polenta and beans - this has been on my menu plan about three times but for one reason or another I've still never made it! It keeps getting bumped. Not sure how it will go down with the kids but hope for the best!

patchwork cat, mine was pork belly. (Roasted plain, skin side up, for 3 1/2 hours at 150 or 130 in a fan oven. Fantastic). The bbq pork and noodles was beerqueen - would like that recipe too!!!!

It was yummy! It's loosely adapted from the Wagamama cook book - official name Roasted Honey Pork Ramen - its a soupy dish needing a big bowl each - and it's very messy to eat!

For 4 people. Earlier in the day I chopped up loads of veg (couple of potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, bit of spinach and simmered for a while to make big vat of veg stock - about 2 litres in total. Coat 525g pork fillet in 4 tbs BBQ sauce (I mixed Hoi sin sce with Soy sauce, garlic and bit of chilli oil) and roast until done - I think about 3/4 hour in hot oven. For last five minutes add 4 tsp of runny honey. Cook enough noodles for 4 people in the stock for however long packet says. For last 2-3 minutes add 4-6 chopped spring onions and about 8 handfuls of chopped fresh spinach. Divide between 4 big bowls. Slice the pork and pile it on top.

The recipe should actually be chicken stock but as my daughter is veggie I decided to make the veg stock. And for her I just did a quorn chicken fillet in the same sauce as the pork.

I will post a piccie later as my son was out at work last night and is having his today and his bowlful is in the fridge.
