I've not been cooking so much of late but this week I've really got back into the swing of things and have had a lovely time cooking up all manner of different dishes, albeit a bit meat centric.

Tonight I am finishing off our carnivorous phase with Chinese crispy duck pancakes with spring onions, cucumber and hoisin.

I have been inspired by a friend to make spanakopita tomorrow which I'll knock up a Greek salad to go with it.

Sunday is anyone's guess!

What is on your menu this weekend, hopefully at least one of you will give me some inspiration for Sunday :-)

No idea, one mater under the weather and one sister who doesn't know whether she's leaving for la Belle France, day by day therefore, tonight a chicken and mushroom risotto.....garnished with a little chopped coriander and pecorino.
Salt and pepper chicken wings and fried rice, lovingly prepared by the local takeaway :)
I have a lasagna in the oven using the ragu you recommended, with salad and garlic bread.

Tomrrow/Sunday is anyones guess...

I'm so pleased that ragu recipe has proved so popular, it certainly warrants it!
My son loves lasagna. I just hope I've got the ragu/white sauce ratio about right. I've never made lasagna before.
I'm at a wedding tomorrow - the bride is both a Vegan and a bit of a foodie, so I'm expecting some interesting food.

For Sunday I have a rolled shoulder of lamb in the fridge - at the moment it's a toss up between

1. Doing it whole in a big pot covered with very aromatic stock using assorted herbs/spices/mustards and a good slug of balsamic vinegar - served with its own stock reduced into gravy and baked tatties and cauli cheese.

2. Chopping it into biggish lumps and doing a slow cooked lamb korma - serve with peshwari naan and nutty brown rice.

Right now I'm starving and may have some buttered pikelets and jam.

Ooh, a vegan wedding sounds very interesting, I'd be interested in knowing the menu.

I'd go for option 1 with the lamb.
The lasagna was lush. Clean plate stickers all round...
I will report back Eccles - I believe it's being catered by friends/relatives as finding a venue that completely understood the concept of vegan was apparently next to impossible in small town Britain - I'm really looking forward to it (and the wedding too, of course
