Lamb belly tagine, not too bad with a roast aubergine, vermicelli rice, hummus and bread.

Tony, I have never had belly before, how does it compare to other cuts of lamb [ie fatty]? The only part of lamb I truly enjoy is a rump joint.

Best way I can decsribe it is the lamb version of pork belly. Fatty and needs slow cooking so if you don't like well done lamb (albeit still moist from the fat) then you may not be too keen.

Plus its a bit of a PITA to skin, seam and bone.

In preparation for July the 4th.....







It was so long it started coming out of my butthole whilst I was still eating it !

Sadly the shutter on my Kodak instamatic jammed so I didn't get any photo's of that.

good effort. Doesn't need the green "sprig" to make it look good though. It looks like its on a sun lounger in Benidorm with that Cilantril / Corriander / Flat leafed parsley umbrella ...

More breast of lamb dishes needed on here, cheap cut of meat needing clever cooking so not too fatty.

That's an impressive platter, escargot..... Or a meal for 1 Cotty.

Liking these!

Had time on my hands for an epic curry today.

Chicken jalfrezi with pilau rice (including raisins and fried cashwes), lemon raita, mango pickle, radish kachumba and poppadoms.

That looks great but there’s far too much plate visible

[Martin350]

Thanks!

It might be deceiving as the plate is actually one of these, there was plenty enough for me.

My wife likes saag paneer. I don't particularly, but as a halfway house concession I made a chicken, paneer and spinach curry.



As per previous curries used the restaurant method, defrosting a frozen bag of curry base. Actually closely based in tikka masala recipe but without the cream, coconut milk or ground almonds. It does however have a big spoonful of Greek yogurt in it to give it a bit of acidity and richness.

Naan is from the local Indian supermarket. Brilliant stuff.
