My casserole is in the oven...

[Smirking_Saint]

....what the hell do i serve it with ??

 

Do i just have it on it's own ?? Or do i do a little bit of rice ??

[stevegrant]

Jacket potato ftw

[Smirking_Saint]

Hmm, it has potato in it already

[marc_saint]

Some nice bread to mop up the gravy.

[bungle]

Depends what casserole it is.

 

Possibly some broccoli? Crusty bread a must.

[Hatch]

lager

Broccoli needs to go in quite close to the end of cooking though. Nothing worse than soggy broccoli. HTH

does it not have a 'serving suggestion' with it?

 

Mustard mash is always a good one....

[Smirking_Saint]

Hmm, was thinking of doing some dumplings but can't be arsed.

 

It's a beef casserole btw, got some cubed aberdeen angus that i couldn't wait to use. Hopefully it will be nice and tender, the smell is making me go crazy but it won't be ready until about 6ish.

 

Got some potato, onion, parsnip, mushrooms and carrot in there.

 

Could do some brocolli, though crusty bread sounds awesome.

[Micky]

Definately not rice, no way, not with casserole, rice is not a good idea, curry yes, casserole no - no rice, get it.

 

Carrots maybe though - HTH.

[SO16_Saint]

rice?

[Smirking_Saint]

So thats a no to rice then ??

[stuey]

As its beef i would go with a Merlot.

 

HTH

[Micky]

Well you could do rice, but I would then throw a load of curry powder, onions and chillies into the casserole...!

[Smirking_Saint]

Prob just have a big lump of casserole, and mop up with some bread

[Dog]

Dumplings.

[Dog]

Are you really that stupid that you have to ask a bunch of egg & chippers to arrange your dinner for you.

[Smirking_Saint]

No, not really, just getting a few ideas.

Farmhouse white bread, with cheddar & beetroot, or brie & bacon.

 

I am having liver & chutney on a crusty cob.

[saint francis]

Tennis racket.

[mdearlove]

Dumplings - they take 5 mins to make then 20 mins in the pot with the stew

[dubai_phil]

Rosti Potatoes

 

Part Boil some spuds then grate them into slices, soften some sliced onions quickly in a pan, mix the two together in a bowl, press them into patties and then fry them off in a pan.

 

 

No I never did that just saw it on Daily Cooks Challenge looked nice

[jjsaint]

Leeks?

Never had liver, but sounds good.

 

Bacon and brie between two big fat tiger bread slices is a winner mind.

No, thick cut cheese, mushrooms and 2 slices of ham in a buttered roll then stuck in the microwave for 1-1.5mins.

 

Sauces optional.

 

FWIW, i'm currently eating a Tikka Masala which I made.

That would be a death wish, plus she doesn't like anything with flavour, she has just cooked herself plain spaghetti and qourn.

[swannymere]

Bit late now, but 8 hours in a slow cooker is the way to go!

[Smirking_Saint]

Yeah not waiting that long swanny

Try Brie, bacon and beetroot. Proper Brie mind, not that chalky crap.

[dubai_phil]

We need a cooking forum

[RedAndWhite91]

Always have mashed potato with casserole. Lush.

[SuperMikey]

Baked potato is the way to go, i'm sorry. If the casserole already has potato in it, then it's a delicious bonus.

[saint_stevo]

chicken and rice for me

[swannymere]

Yeah not waiting that long swanny

 

Nah, Prep everything the night before and put in the fridge, jut before you goto work chuck it all in the slow cooker and when you get home delicious food ready to munch. Good food is all in the prep!

[dune]

Dumplings so long as they're home made and if they don't lift the lid they're not big enough.

[Smirking_Saint]

Now that was awesome and filling, made the dumplings as well in the end and worked out fantastic.

 

My first foray into one pot cooking, will prob make a chicken casserole next as i like a bit of chicken on the bone.

 

Yeah we could do with a cooking forum. IMO

[stuey]

DEFFO need a cooking forum!!

 

Admin...

 

Make it so...

[swannymere]

Is it wrong to eat yesterdays risotto reheated with a swirl of Daddy's Sauce on top?

[Smirking_Saint]

Only if you don't warm the rice up enough.

 

You will die (possibly, but more likely projectile vomit for a bit)

[swannymere]

No, never been ill and i eat this on a regular basis. Why is Daddy's Sauce so good? Better than HP or Fruity IMHO!

[Smirking_Saint]

Ketchup

[Whitey Grandad]

Nothing worse than broccoli, IMHO.

I don't know, blanche tenderstem broccoli in boiling water for 1-2 mins, transfer to a fyring pan containing some melted butter and sprinkle crushed black pepper over the top and fry for about 2-3 minutes. A quick and tasty side to any dinner.

Feck orf. That stuff should be banned.

I was told that there were two types of people. Some of them have an extra gene that makes broccoli (and sprouts) taste bitter, whilst those people who are deficient in this gene think that it tastes nice.
