kitty_kitty Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 a whole chicken done in my slow cooker (organic free range!!)
Guest ii Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 I had cereal too! But that was for supper (I am allowed I'm pregnant:blush:). We had curry for dinner. What's the difference between supper and dinner? I've always thought supper is just the slang-term for dinner. I've forgotten to eat again today, so... maybe some ravioli...
happyanddandy Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 a whole chicken done in my slow cooker (organic free range!!) Roast chicken - and mine was able to run around for a while too but not organically
Lilywhite Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 I'm making a thick soup in my huge pan It should last for tomorrow as well then.

I've forgotten to eat again today, so... maybe some ravioli... My understanding is that supper is something you have before bed ie. later in the evening whereas dinner (in this context - because I call it tea) is the evening meal. My gran used to give me supper when I went to stay with her - it was often a biscuit and a drink of milk or a bowl of muesli.
~Andrea~ Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 We had chicken pie, roast potatoes, roast parsnips and red onion, peas and gravy. (Also mint sauce and cranberry sauce which OH brings out whenever we have a roast dinner in any shape or form)
JudyB Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Similar to us - we had roast chicken, roast spuds, roast parsnips, peas and gravy and I brought out the horseradish which I have whenever we have a roast especially when there's cabbage.
princessponti Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 I had the quickest dinner as an experiment and it was lovely! (although I may now be stinky!) - I cooked two minute fresh tagliatelle verde whilst I chopped one tomato and one garlic clove (with some olive oil and a teeny bit of fresh chilli) in my little chopper - I tossed the pasta in a little unsalted butter then tossed in the tomato goop and ate it all up - yum!!!
happyanddandy Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 I glimpsed Delia's new book today and a few of the recipes called for frozen chopped onions!!! It never occured to me there was such a thing!
Lilywhite Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 We had beef and red wine ravioli with tomato and mascarpone sauce - yum yum
Angel Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 Now that is a step too far!! Frozen chopped onions !!! She's meant to be a cooking icon - how long does it take to chop an onion....................no wonder this country is becoming deskilled . Come on Delia - get your apron out and cook
princessponti Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 everyone should own a mini-chopper, it's the best kitchen gadget in the world!! chop chop chop everything in 30 seconds! No more trips to the freezer for Delia the lazy bum
happyanddandy Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 lol pp Out for dinner tonight with friends to very popular Thai restaurant - you bring your own alcohol!!
Icecream Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Frozen chopped onions, whatever next? We have had vegetable soup the last couple of nights with lots of yummy things in, but I wanted tomatoes and didn't have fresh, so I chucked in a tin:blush:. OH has gone away so Katie can have the last of the soup and a banana, then when she is in bed I will have the half price frozen lasagne I bought myself as a treat (naughty, but I don't often buy frozen food, it was bought for just such an occasion as OH going away and having something else for Katie). Speaking of which, I had best go and feed the child:)
~Andrea~ Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 fish curry tonight from a recipe book. Never done it before, hope it's nice (We've had to improvise some ingredients which just weren't available in Asda )
