Your Favourite (Homemade) Dinner?

[looksgoodinred]

What's your favourite home-cooked dinner, that perks you up on a cold wet day?

 

I'm all set for twice-baked lasagna.. layer upon layer of noodle, meat sauce, sausage, and ricotta cheese. A big gooey layer of mozzarella and provolone on top. Baked last night, to be reheated tonight with some more cheese on top, for good measure

[Miglo don]

Always better the day after!

 

I like home made soup, any kind wi some chunky homemade bread! Lovely!

Add a square of chocolate after the mince has browned. Tastes amazing, and not sweet at all.

I edited your original post when I quoted it; never mind.

 

On topic: I do love a lasagne, with or without chips.

[Redstar]

Lasagna,Curry and Chilli...WTF...Mince and Tatties with a side of skirlie...when you work abroad there's nothing finer when you get back to blighty

[hopeisimportant]

Spaghetti Bolognese.

 

Simple yet unbelievably tasty. Best meal in the world.

[amancalledbuck]

Beans and sausages.

 

Get some good sausages, half a dozen of them, brown them off in the oven.

 

Heat up a tin of tomatoes, add a chopped onion, some garlic and a tin of cannellini beans.

 

Add some spices. I've been using some peri-peri mix and smoked paprika. Oh, and an oxo cube.

 

Mix everything together in a casserole dish, cover and bake for 2 - 3 hours.

 

Serve with big chunks of homemade bread.

I usually get the Schwartz Hot Chilli packet, but in addition to the mince, I crumble in some white pudding and black pudding (either Stornoway or the Spanish stuff fae Dobbies, other stuff disnae work as well). I also stick in mushrooms, more chilli peppers, normal peppers and baked beans in addition to the kidney beans and onions. And to make it especially nuclear, a few dashes o the Encona West Indian Hot Pepper Sauce. I tend to make heaps of it which ends up stored in the freezer for future meals through the week. Nae bothered as to fit I hae wi the chilli, usually rice or mashed tatties, sometimes a bag o chips fae Mike's if I can't be arsed to cook anymore.

Why does everyone add onions needlessly to every meal? They are shit and add nothing. IMO.

It's to keep French men on bicycles in a job.

 

What else would a man in a stripey vest and a beret do if no one bought onions.

Making home made burgers as my little cousin is coming round for tea tomorrow. Fresh mince from the butchers, red onion, basil, coriander and worcestershire sauce. Beautiful. Im on a diet so having ceasar salad alongside it, cousin is having chips :-( Also im not having a bun (on a low carb diet). But if its in a bun with mayo, salad and cheese then wow.

[tup]

Red onion is sick, tastes like poison.

[Crossbow]
