Cooking

I don’t cook much (not as much as I should) but for some reason I ended up cooking dinner both yesterday and today. Last night I made a quick chicken curry – not particularly well – but it was edible enough. Nowhere near as good as the stuff Lisa and I used to make before we had kids, but in those days you could afford to spend 4 hours grinding and roasting spices and carefully crafting something special. These days we’re on a deadline.

Tonight I threw together some pasta. The sauce had some meat in it, but instead of using the default choice of mince I bought a cheap piece of rump and cut it up really finely. The sauce had garlic, onion, bacon, tomato, the finely chopped rump, mushrooms, corn, kidney beans, chick peas and a touch of ground pepper. It was actually pretty nice.
