Haven't had much of an appetite for obvious reasons but I do have some great salmon in the freezer and also a packet of smoked salmon in the fridge to have with a rocket, spinach and pea salad. I have some Danish fetta and black olives so I'l add those as well for some saltiness.

Had already stocked the freezer with half price gelato and vanilla icecream whilst it was all on special. Good to have with fresh peaches and lime juice for a bit of a kick.

The left over pork schnitzel from the other night and risoni with tomato which i had froze from the left over risoni and meatballs, going to a bit like a No Names combo but only much nicer.

Tomorrow will be ham, i just picked up the one we won in the last night raffles and it is huge so there is going to lots of ham coming up, hopefully will get some prawns to have with but have and also have pate and cheeses for tomorrow night with some nice bubbles.

What way do you your potatoes on the BBQ MR ?, whole and wrapped in foil or thinly sliced like chips ? When i or the better half do them on the BBQ we do the thinly sliced way, they come out nice and crisp, the last time we done them it was like real potato crisps, best we had ever done (and i will admit it wasn't me that BBQ'd them that time ) I like doing zucchini, mushrooms and tomato on the BBQ beside the usual onions which i soak in beer.
Last time we stayed at our friends in Ulladulla he cooked a lovely steak and we had a basic salad with it but the person just boiled the potatoes, they weren't large ones but they weren't small as chats either, it was so simple and i really enjoyed them that way with a bit of butter on them , going to do that a bit more often as even though i like mash i get sick of it after a while.

Tonight besides the left over schnitzel and risoni i'm frying a bit of asparagus to have with it, the asparagus this season has been excellent.

I get the longer oblong shape thinner potatoes and slice them into small circle shapes. Then par boil them on the stove top for 5 minutes. Then add oil and salt and hubby finishes them off on the bbq. Like your friend I sometimes get the smaller chat sized potatoes and cut them into 3-4 pieces with skin on, then boil them and add salt, butter and chives. A nice alternative to mash, though admittedly we do mash a lot too.

Watched this recipe on Donal Skehan on SBS . I always like parsnip with a roast dinner and this looked so yummy.


Perfect Parmesan Parsnips


Ingredients

* 1kg of parsnips

* 3 tablespoons of wholemeal flour

* 1 tablespoon of ground black pepper

* 1 tablespoon of sea salt

* 1 generous handful of parmesan cheese

* 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Directions

* Preheat the oven to 200C/390F/Gas 6.

* Peel the parsnips and chop in half and then slice into four. You may need to slice the chunks in half again depending on what size you want them.

* Place the parsnips in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring the pot to the boil and simmer for four minutes.

* Rinse with a little cold water and drain the chunks in a colander.

* Combine the flour, pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Tumble the parsnips into the bowl and toss to coat.


* Place in a large roasting tray, sprinkle over the Parmesan cheese and drizzle with olive oil.

* Roast in the oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Prawn and avocado cocktail, ham, fetta stuffed mushrooms, then anything else i decide to throw on a platter which could have taramasalata, olives, dolmades, artichokes, caperberries, pickled onions, dolmades and different cheeses or maybe some haloumi.
