Fantatstic simple meals

[Shaolin]

I think there have been similar threads before, this is main meals.

I've been prompted as the missus and I have just had one of our favourite meals that is also one of the easist and quickest to cook of anything we have.

Boiled new potatoes
Steamed spring cabbage
Haggis - grilled or fried to give some crispiness that contrasts the other two ingredients

Buy quality ingredients and it's superb dead easy and fairly cheap.

Ham, Egg and chips..with a doorstep slice of bread and butter...Done right its bloody lovely.

[Simpo Two]

Grilled rump steak, saute potatoes, melted crud from the grill pan poured over the top, a dash of Worcester Sauce on the steak, salt on the spuds, half a bottle of red wine. As our crude Scottish friend would say, 'Done'.

[ArtVandelay]

Home made beef burgers, cannot be beaten IMO for an easy meal that has tasty results Had some yesterday, was gutted we'd ran out of the mixture to chuck a couple more in the pan. Cheese, lettuce, onion and a dollop of reggae reggae sauce

[Mobile Chicane]

Sausages, mash and onion gravy. Steamed Savoy cabbage / curly kale on the side.

mental note - avoid dinner at shoalin's

I'm just eating a very simple dish indeed.

Brown off some chicken in olive oil, meanwhile boil some pasta up.

Check a good few cloves of garlic with the chciken, either minced or sliced, and a couple of handfuls of spinach and brocolli, plus a tsp of salt and a glass of white wine. Simmer some more until the spinach wilts, then drain the pasta, mix up with the chicken and shove it all in a casserole dish. Cover liberally with grated cheese, pop into preheated 170 over for half an hour.
