villa4europe Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Christmas yoghurts today was plum and cinnamon, also got a spekulatius one which is kind of like a biscoff all spiced biscuit and then the really good one orange and marzipan if you like marzipan and cinnamon Christmas in Germany is incredible (they're 2 of my favourite flavours so im loving it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I eat plain porridge for breakfast most days, and I felt like something a bit sweeter, Nutri-Grain was in the pantry. They market it as healthy and nutritious, but it's actually about 30% sugar.

ferguson1 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Naan Kebab from the local chippy last night. Almost immediately regretted it as the world dropped out of my arse with the gentlest of pushes! Not pleasant!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterms Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Beans. Got some dried white beans from the local med/north african shop, bigger than what I would call haricots and smaller than cannelini. Soaked overnight, drained, rinsed, cooked. About £1 worth. Made a spicy tomato sauce by softening onions and (later) garlic, adding salt, pepper, dried oregano, sweet and hot paprika, tomato puree, a tin of tomatoes, and about a thitd of a tin of chipotle chillis in adobe sauce. About another £1.50. Half that if you use dried chillis instead of chipotle. Added the drained cooked beans to the sauce. Two things so far: Breakfast of toasted granary bread with butter, covered in spicy beans with poached egg on top. Very filling. Dinner of cumberland sausages with spicy beans, and steamed french beans. Cheap, simple, tasty, and still some left. You could use tinned cooked beans to save a bit of time, the quantity I made would probably cost £4 in total rather than about £2.50. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a great Spanish/Mexican shop locally, otherwise online may be easier. I hear dried chipotles were banned a coupe of years ago, some health scare or orher, but tinned are ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidderminster tried and failed to have a specialist Asian shop, couldn't tell you where one is in brum or worcester but most supermarkets will have a world food aisle that varies dependant on the local community, for example kiddy is leaning heavy towards polish foods whereas the one at morrisons on 5 ways does have a fair bit of Caribbean stuff can remember the complaints that went in to I newspaper who every day used to print a recipe that looked amazing but featured at least 1 super rare specialist ingredient that anyone outside of London would struggle to find 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
