The Goldfish Chronicles

Decided to be a good father and cook a Sunday dinner for the family today, plus good sandwich material for the week. I used this recipe with a slight modification (mustard as opposed to mustard powder :)) and while the pork took a long time to cook, it ended up tasting wonderful. A good experiment.

We also had peas, a curry/apple gravy (very interesting), pax stage and onion stuffing (imported from UK) and roast potatoes. I use Delia Smith’s potato recipe; pour boiling water on the potatoes, add salt and simmer for ten minutes. While that’s simmering, put some fat on a tray and stick it in the oven. Then put the potatoes on the tray (hot fat seals the potatoes) and cook for an hour, turning halfway. Works each time.

Downside; Nathan fell asleep and slept for the rest of the evening so I didn’t get to find out if he’d eat any of it.
