The Cottage Smallholder

Thank you for you Input, Ladies, must cut down on Sugar.

Today, got a nice piece of Haddock from the Fishmonger, so my favourite Mash, Peas, and battered Haddock. Got to use the Trifles up, so single Trifle

How do you cook your mussels, Val?  I bought a big bag of frozen mussels (just the meat, no shells   ) the other day, it's been years since we had mussels.  Can't remember how we had them before, but I know I wasn't all that keen on them.

We've just had fish and chips for lunch, an occasional treat, yum.

Roast Chicken, roast Onion, Mash, and Green Veg. Dessert, Slice of Ice Cream Roll, with Raspberries, and a wee drop of Cream.

Leftover Chicken, so will make a few roast Tatties, as had Mash, yesterday, with Green Veg, and Gravy, maybe One Yorkshire.  Not sure about Pud.

Taken Fish Pie out of Freezer, have Asparagus to use up, Daughter bought it, marked down, so some of that with Peas. Yogurt and Rhubarb.

On Countryfile the weekend before last, Matt Baker helped a chap make Panaculty - I've heard of Pan Haggerty (which is a regional variation) but not that.  It's a speciality of the Tyne & Wear/Sunderland region, basically it's layers of sliced potatoes, carrots, onions and either bacon or corned beef, with a jugful of gravy poured over and slow baked.  It sounded delicious, I made it last week (with bacon, not keen on hot corned  beef) and it is!  So much so that husband requested it again, so that's what we're having, with buttered Savoy cabbage.
