Dinner

Egg fried rice with grilled pork and omelette.
It was very good, I am not usually one for seasoned fried rice but this was very subtle in its taste. I couldn't even work out what it was, probably soy sauce based.
I got it with a spicy tamarind sauce.

A warming beef and potato soup for a cold winter's night.

^Molly looks a bit like Nipper from the HMV logo with her ears folded forward like that.

Homemade chicken soup made by Lao Lady from a real chicken this evening.

No feet were identifiable from sifting carefully through the chicken remains.

This visitation is an opportunity for her to declutter her patio and divest it of various pot plants and unwanted petrol driven implements, now she is running on lithium ion.

She documented progress on my mango tree pruning project under a leaden humid Sunday sky

She advised me that I should feed my new tenant lettuce. I said that was bollix and they are carnivores, and I always feed them insects. But she insisted they could also eat lettuce, which forced me to later google the dietary veracity and conclude that lettuce is indeed bollix. Green tree frogs are carnivores.

We demolished a box of milk chocolate Tim Tams for a post-Christmas chocolate hair of the dog as our pudding.

^^Nice Joe

I forgot, did you go to the bar where Oliver Reed had his last and victorious bender?

Nice Looper, those Tim Tams slip down a treat!

Thai food is the best.

Did you cook them or just eat them frozen?

Burnt the sausages to a crisp but I snorted the instant mash straight off the counter.

Pity you're not local, there was 24 hour's worth.

All credit to my Mrs for this one by the way.

Well, she cooked it, switched off the hob, told me to mash the tatties and fucked off to bed.

I was accused elsewhere of having psycopathic tendencies for the manner in which I plated it.

Great minds think alike.

Added jalapeños and topped with cheese.

Look, I love melted cheese just as much as the next man but it does not belong on mince and potatoes. I'm sorry but that had to be said.

**armstrong** · 15-01-2026, 09:56 PM

Just got into bed and now I'm fucking starving

**dirk diggler** · 15-01-2026, 11:19 PM

The kid got the last of the tatties. I considered making wraps but just went with that.

It's really easy to make it btw.

I Concur!

I took some inspiration from Dirk's recent 'mince and tatties' for this. A staple of my monthly batch cooking diet is Korean minced pork, which is loaded with vegetables and Japanese spring onions. Usually had with either udon noodles or steamed rice, but this time opted for some mashed sweet potato.

**dirk diggler** · 17-01-2026, 01:32 PM

Looks delicious.

Try a keema some time, Indian mince n tatties.

That reminded me of a thread I did a few years ago, essentially an Indian shepherds pie. PAG's Spiced Lamb Keema Shepherd's Pie With Aloo Gobi

**Bonecollector** · 17-01-2026, 02:28 PM

Very nice PAG and Dirk; mashed sweet potato especially.
