y favourite dish at the moment is from a pub nearby. It’s posh pub grub, not the normal steak and burgers, although they have fancy versions of those too.
Every time we go there, I always order the same meal. I can’t go past it. It’s not rare for us to visit and every one at the table order the same meal, lamb & pumpkin salad with yoghurt cheese.
Recently I was visiting a new deli in town and noticed they had yoghurt cheese. I’d never seen it before, but had obviously tasted it… so I grabbed a tub and all the rest of the ingredients I need to put together my new favourite meal.
I roasted some pumpkin, chopped some avocado, toasted some pine nuts, lightly sauteed some spanish onion and seared some lamb. I tossed it all together with some english spinach and dressed it with a little balsamic dressing. Lastly I topped it with some deliciously soft yoghurt cheese.
It was perfection. My new favourite meal was just as easy to make at home. And probably cheaper too.
What’s your favourite meal at the moment?
boiled peanuts.
Pancakes with Nutella, maple syrup, banana and berries. I've been craving sugar all week.
That meal looks delicious though! I've never heard of yoghurt cheese before… x
Yum.
My favourite is anything that I do not have to cook. So if you cooked it, or if my lovely husband cooked it, or a chef in a pub cooked it, I would love it.
Any meal that I have not had to cook tastes twice as good….
I can't say I have *one* but I so adored the lemon and herb chicken wings I made last night, I could eat them several nights in a row!
Yoghurt cheese (Labna, I think that is how its spelt)is fantastic!
I actually make a salad that is similar, it is just missing the lamb, and I roast cherry tomoatoes in with the pumpkin, and drizzle baslamic vinegar on top…tis the best easy meal!!!
labna is really easy to make. Just get greek yoghurt, put a colander over a bowl, line the colander with muslin (or good paper towel), pour yoghurt into colander and leave it in the fridge overnight. Oh, add salt to the yoghurt first. Yum!
We eat this at home as well without the onion because I am allergic.
My favourite meal at the moment is caramelised salmon with lime on a bed of rocket and avocado. Yummo
Oh my gosh, that looks so yummy!!
Oh Hello there. Where have you been all my life!
Since I live in London and it's still pretty cold here, my favourite meal at the moment is soups – especially hearty vegetable soups with pearl barley and dumplings. Yum Yum.
By the way, your salad looks divine. I will have to try that in summer!
I'm loving tuna or salmon salad – a small tin of the fish tossed with whatever salad I have and a dressing made from olive oil/white wine vinegar/lemon juice/dijon mustard/greek yoghurt. Mmmmmmm.
my local deli is my favourite place to shop. So many cool and interesting things. That meal looks yummy, might have to make it myself.
