Made scallops in garlic sauce with egg fried rice.
Really quite nice if I say so myself.
Better than the takeaway!

Got home after the match and a couple of pints - and my wife had made a brill spanish omelette, griddled courgettes and mixed salad... Some home baked sourdough and white wine from Galicia.
This was nice...

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
Well, I got home after the match and my wife had booked us a table at 'Damas - The Art of Meze' in Chorlton. Food heaven! We had the special vegetable meze which consists of no less than eighteen courses, only one of them, a lentil and spinach dish, didn't quite agree with me but the rest was fabulous at £18.95 a head.
Chorlton is turning into quite a place to eat out at the moment with several restaurants having opened recently along a short stretch of road. Tapas next time out.... or maybe Bengali.

Oh I can do better than that - I've just got back from my niece's 8th birthday party with a veritable hamper of party food. Triangular sandwiches, sausage rolls, cup cakes the lotGooner Girl wrote:Yum! I want one. Can you do me takeaway please?! That sounds delish!

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
My wife made the most brilliant veggie tagine, the spices of which are still tickling my palate...
Sweet potatoes, green olives, whole almonds, preserved lemons, tomatoes, onion, garlic, dried apricots, honey...
And... just for flavour... ras-el-hanout, cinnamon, ginger, saffron and fresh coriander...
This was startling and will be a winter standby - I can imagine in a January freeze. Sweet and sour in great balance - and competition... loved it...
We did Cava and Albarino for the wine... nice... A medium red or decent dry cider would have been just as good, maybe better...

Got a few days off so I'm back home. Mum and dad have just got back from Bruges, so tonight I'm mainly working my way through the beers they brought back. Great!

Tapas .... at home ... made mostly by #2 son in respect to #1son's birthdayy.
He's making a pile of the stuff so we may be eating it till Saturday night.
It's a real pleasure to have kids who like to cook and are adventurous.

I reckon that that a portion of that would stand a nice piece of monkfish atop.
