The Greek version with lamb, veg and cheese in a packet or the Cypriot slow cooked lamb shank in tomato and wine? I love the latter, not so keen on the former.

I'm not cooking this evening: Instead a good cheese board with crackers, sauces and pickles. Wine - McGuigan reserve Chardonnay. Then nibbles and mixers until midnight.

Main TV is rubbish as usual so I'll look out a blockbuster or two. Plenty on the media server to browse.

Then toast in the new year. :)

A (rather than the) Greek version slow cooked, but not in tomato or a packet (the person cooking it comes from Portaria, near Volos, and apparently there are many ways of cooking Kleftiko).

I cooked a couple of pig hearts for our elderly cat (he needs the taurine found in heart muscle). I gave our lad a bit and he loved it, but not as much as the cat did.

Re: What are you eating now thread?
 
Yesterday I did a "pork feast" - I had a pork knuckle from the farmer's market (£1.50) so got some chorizo and planned to cook with some beans and eat with bread. Then we invite round some friends from church. So off to farmer's market again - I managed to get another knuckle (£1.50) and a block of black pudding.

Added quite a bit of paprika (sweet and smoked hot), onions, lots of garlic, chicken stock, can of tomatoes. Cooked up for a couple of hours, then cut meat of bones and back to oven to finish - even got a little bit of crackling.

Wife did cauliflower cheese for the veggematics.

Last night: Guinea fowl cooked over potatoes and onions in stock.

(These birds can be good value - Waitrose sell them at a fixed price so you can get a 1.5kg bird that price per kg is good compared to quality chickens. Yes the cheap birds are cheaper.)

Made a couple of bunny chows for church small group Wednesday night.

One was based on a bunny recipe in a book swapping beans for chicken, hottish. The other was my own idea, quite mild with heat from pepper rather than chillies again chicken and closer to African style curry.

Both were enjoyed and not much left bar some "soggy" crusts and the nice thing is we didn't have to take home dirty pans/tins since we ate the containers.
