I like making my garlic bread, because everyone loves it, and stew with whatever's to hand, provided there's plenty of time. I find all the chopping and tweaking the flavour very therapeutic.  And anything chilli or curry, provided there's enough time to do take ages over it. |

I get no enjoyment out of cooking I cook because I have to or we would starve! but seing as I have cooked just about every meal since I was 17 its no wonder and OH isnt very keen on different foods just boring roasts and stews  |

I have a slow cooker which is brill for stews, and once everything is in the flavour gets better the longer you can leave it.

I made something up on Saturday and it was so delish I thought I'd share it with you.
Minced Pork
1 medium onion
Fresh oregano and sage
Tomato puree (one with some chili and spices in it)
Tin of tomatoes.
Glass of Red Wine
Teaspoon of fennel seed.
Salt and pepper
Fry the onions until beginning to grow brown then add the pork until that is browned. Add all the remaining ingredients and mix well. Bring up to the boil then simmer for about 20 minutes or until the liquid has mostly evaporated.
Serve with chunky pasta that has had some butter and pepper added.

I can't remember what make my slo-cooker is, but the pan is separate from the heating part which makes it much easier to use and clean.

Doing an Indian dinner party Saturday night for somebody from Kerala. I shall be cooking the main course (Keralan lamb bhuna) tonight to let it mature for a couple of days. I'll let you know how it goes (more smelly oniony hands then).
Also doing a cauliflower dish, possibly a spinach dish, yoghurt chutney, rice and breads.
