Welcome
to my new follower Kittykittyweaselfish!
As
the house was a little on the cool side, thought I'd spend the
morning in the kitchen, cooking to keep warm. I prepared another
batch of soup which I'll discuss tomorrow. The next thing was a beef
goulash, started on the top of the cooker before going in the oven on
a low heat for 3-4 hours (yes, know I should have used the slow
cooker but there wasn't enough to go in it as it is an old fashioned
quite large one).
Anyhow,
once the goulash was under way,
I then prepared a blackcurrant (from the garden) and
eating apple crumble to put in the oven once the goulash came out.
Both
are now going cold, as is the soup, imparting their flavours before
being warmed again tomorrow.
For
tea, I am going to make the Feta and Spinach Pie as mentioned on
Frugal Queen's blog a couple of days ago. The puff pastry had to go
in the airing cupboard for a couple of hours to thaw as it hadn't
remotely thawed after 4 hours sitting in the kitchen! Strange.
DB has just come back from the dentist after having a filling - more
expense! His tooth broke in half eating something, then over the next
couple of days, his filling dropped out so we weren't sure sure if there will be
anything left for the dentist to fill. Ah well. Tea will be late
tonight as we have to wait for him to thaw out after his injection.
Your food sounds so delicious. My taste buds are non existent at the moment so anything spicy just about does the trick. I wish I was up to doing anything in the kitchen though, its Tony's domain just until I feel up to tackling it again!
ReplyDeleteSpicy is certainly the way to go just so you can taste something. Awful isn't it!
ReplyDeleteGoulash is one of my favourite winter warmers, I sometimes put a tin of red beans in to stretch it a bit. Love crumble too, I have the makings of one for tomorrow for after the roast if I ever get to the freezer and take something out. Its bitter cold today and I keep putting off going to the garage!

We like it as well but don't make it often as we don't eat much meat. Enjoyed some cool crumble with evaporated milk.
DeleteThat goulash looks absolutely delicious!
ReplyDeleteHaven't tasted it yet, am waiting until Sunday evening so the flavours can blend.
DeleteI take out the beef and add mushrooms or 'fake' beef in goulash, lovely when it is so cold. You could have been really mean and served up tea to hubby and watched him dribble it down his chin!!! Xxx
ReplyDeleteI adore mushroom goulash, will always have it when out if its on the menu. Some are better than others.
DeleteEverything looks great. I'm envious of your snow!
ReplyDeleteThank you and don't be. Snow is lovely until it thaws and re-freezes. Then it is deadly. We have to walk on the roads as the pavements are like a skating ring.
DeleteI love crumble, yum :) And the goulash looks delicious, that is the perfect meal on a cold winter day.
ReplyDeleteYour snow photos are very pretty.
Have a lovely Sunday :)
