Convenience

After all the effort I made to do my chores today I had no energy left for inventive cookery. So tonight's meal is another ready made burger, saved from total disinterest by the addition of freshly picked potatoes. This burger is made by Bio Express and is their Bulgar, Quinoa and Tomato Flavoured version. It's o.k.



The potatoes are better though and I've cooked enough to make a fried breakfast with the leftovers tomorrow.

The strange stuff in the small bowl is some left over Store Cupboard Salad that I made for lunch, using some of that Ebly pre-cooked wheat, some tinned sweetcorn, beetroot, onion and chili pepper rings dressed with lemon juice and soy sauce. Rather odd but quite tasty.

Experimenting

An attempt at a posh pudding. It doesn't look too posh here, as the intention was to turn the set jelly out and cube it for service. The jelly would have done that but the cherries were too difficult to slice in the soft matrix and generally just wrecked the joint. Which was a pity but I ate it up anyway because it tasted nice.

To 500ml of almond milk add 2g agar agar powder and about 25g granulated sugar. Bring to a simmer over a gentle heat and cook for a few minutes. Pour into a mould adding fruits as desired. Sets within an hour but nicest well chilled.

For my dinner I turned to a Croq'soya burger, served with chips, fried onions, a tomato salad and a dill pickle. How unhealthy is that.
