Re: Sunday roast
 

I always do a Sunday Roast......Beef or Pork...and very occasionally Lamb.......I don't often do lamb because I can't eat it.....but that is no hardship as I don't like it anyway.

Re: Sunday roast
 

Always eat a roast dinner but it is cooked for me(don't see much point doing a roast for one). Anyway today we had roast beef, yourshire puds, mash and roast spuds, carrots, cauliflower, brocolli, peas and gravy. Followed by apple pie and cream, thanks Mum

Re: Sunday roast
 

for years and years I hated them,

then I started working in teh restaurant trade and found that actually I just hated well done meat. Give me a bloody rare roast of Sirloin and I'll scoff teh lot!

Chicken I quite like but needs flavour adding with herbs etc.

Pork must have good crackling but then must still be juicy.

lamb I don't mind but its Julies favourite. I can decide if I prefer it quick and rare or very long and slow cooked.


now I quite like a roast dinner but only if I've done it and I know its too my liking.

Re: Sunday roast
 

The chicken was very nice ... and next doors cat appreciated some of the cut offs as well ..:D:D:D

Re: Sunday roast

Re: Sunday roast
 

It was too hot to cook today.
I had Parma ham with melon and watercress, accompanied by chunks of home made brioche dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
I juiced 3 apples and a pear as an appetiser.
All light food - but all organic - when you don't eat much it needs to be good stuff with no 'packing'.

Re: Sunday roast
 

Despite living with 2 non-meat eaters (younger daughter and granddaughter) I do enjoy a roast. No longer working I don't, necessarily, have it on a Sunday. Every now and then, though, I invite my older children over and make a good old fashioned Sunday Dinner, on a Sunday, following it up with, perhaps, an apple or rhubarb crumble made from home grown fruit or one of my famous rice puddings (thick, sweet, creamy and covered in a brown nutmeg "cartsheet".) I really love cooking. :)

I love lamb but I also like beef, which must be rare, and pork, which must be moist and have plenty of crackling. Chicken/turkey is OK if it's not too dry and all my meats must have plenty of gravy. I always do crisp roast potatoes, carrots which I caramelise for preference, with perhaps roast parsnips and a green veg - peas or cabbage (properly cooked cabbage is delicious) - or broccoli and often leeks in white sauce or cauliflower cheese. Chicken must have bread sauce and lamb must have mint sauce. Yorkshire puddings go with everything.

As it's sometimes a bit of a drag to make all that just for me - I cheat! Two country pub/restaurants within a mile of my house both do excellent carveries so I'm not averse to nipping to the Crown or the Manor for a delicious meal, very economically priced and someone else clears it away. :D

Re: Sunday roast

Re: Sunday roast
 

I meant try roasting your meat on a metal skewer.

Not that furry oven glove puppet, or even two footballers and a dozey slapper.

;) :D
