[[email protected];552769]Margaret what did you make for supper this Sunday and can you take pictures

[Margaret Pilkington]

Oh Tracy...we have eaten every bit.....we had roast beef, yorkshire pudding, steamed carrots and sprouts, a nice helping of garden peas, Roast and mashed spuds.....with a little trickle of the meat juices made into gravy.
Hubby had Strawberries and ice cream.......I was too stuffed to have a pud.....though I do have a Rhubarb crumble in the freezer.
There were five for Dinner today so there wasn't a crumb left over....normally if there is any of the joint left, I dice it and put it into a casserole for later in the week.

One of the easiest things i have cooked recently is Beef wellington, it looks like you slaved over a cooker for hours but only takes about 40 mins

Pre heat the oven to around 190 degrees (noit sure of the gas mark)

Get a six or severn ounce Lump of Fillet steak, season it with salt and pepper (and ASDA do something called Spice It Up which is great too) Cover it with a thickish layer of Pate. then put sliced mushrooms on top of that. Take some pre rolled puff pastry and place the steak in the middle of it then wrap it up with the pastry and seal all the edges down. brush it with egg yoke or milk and put it in the oven for 25 - 30 mins,
it goes lovely with another easy thing to make carmalized carrots, get a tray of baby carrotts cut the tops off, place flat in a frying pan and put COLD water in so it is about half way up the sides of the carrotts put in two large lumps of butter and cover in brown suger the cook on a medium to high heat for about 15 mins or until all the liquid has desolved and you're left with lovely glazed carrotts.

carmellized baby carrots - can do that when i forget ive got them on the top of the oven ... ok the pans black and you have to soak it with a drop of vinegar in to get it clean again but it works!!!!
