Roast Lamb & Red Pepper Wrap

Roast Lamb and Red Pepper Wrap

I love it when you find stuff in the fridge you thing were there and then create something really tasty with them. At the start of the week I posted some images of Roast Lamb well I found remnants in the fridge and cooked up a tasty wrap. To my Lamb I added red and orange peppers. Add a good squirt of Heinz BBQ Sauce for smokey, spicy loveliness and you are done.

This is the third or fourth shoot I've done recently with leftovers, it's great what you can come up with two, three or seven days after you've had the main dish.

Yaki udon with prawns and chicken

Yaki udon with prawns and chicken, tonight's dish is a combination of left overs from recipes I've posted over the week. Great Udon noodles with a fabulous sauce of ginger, yellow bean sauce, lemongrass and teriyaki from Monday add prawns left over from yesterday and some chicken for some additional flavour. The green vegetables peppers, green onions and cucumber bring in some crunch and lightness to the dish.

Make the sauce as described here. Boil the noodles as per the instructions on the packet and set a side. In a hot wok add garlic and chicken fry for 2 - 3 minutes then add green peppers and fry for a further 2 minutes, finally add the prawns and fry until the prawns a properly cooked. Put the noodles back in the wok for 60 seconds to warm through before serving in a large bowl, dress with ribbons of cucumber and drizzle over the sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if you have them.

Hope you enjoy the dish, please leave me your thoughts to my slightly ad hoc dish.

熱いスープのうどん (Udon noodles with hot broth)

Udon noodles with hot broth, another dish from Japan this is super simple, so tasty and looks fabulous too.

My favourite plump udon noodles, green vegetables with a slight crunch, perfectly prepared hard boiled eggs, prawns and that oh so amazing Miso based broth ( I couldn't get 'dashi' in my local store so changed it for Miso and it works for me, add about 500ml of boiling water to one sachet of Miso. Sweet, sour, salty with a depth that just makes you want to smile and have more and more and more.

Check out the recipe to see how simple this amazing dish is, I challenge any of you to try this one and get it wrong.

For the those who are really stuck, I was the egg should be put into a pan of cold water, bring to the simmer and held there for 7 minutes. This gives you the perfect egg firm white with just a touch of softness in the yolk.

A big thanks to Natalie for that one

Give it a try and if you have any queries leave a comment.
