Dial a Roast... genius!

[kazza 1]

It all depends on what mood I'm in and what I have had for my breakfast. If I make a fry up on a Sunday morning, I would not make a big dinner. Just a sandwich or something light. But if theres no fry up I would have a pork roast with crackling and all the trimmings.
Or if I'm being really lazy, I would pig out on junk then have a Chinese later!

i thought you said you didn't have fried eggs kazza   

I dont!

But tbh, I dont eat the yolk out of a fried egg! Its gross

It's the beef roast for me on a Sunday, one day during the week we usually have a pork/chicken roast as well. But Sunday its got to be the traditional beef roast

Most Sundays its what i fancy the rest have to eat what i give them. Usualy i alternate between a piece of beef an a leg of lamb with all the veg an me potatoes cooked in the meat juice. I love brussels though an i have the majority of those. Yorkies with anything an all. I had  beef yesterday an it was handsome. wed night i normaly cook a chicken roast if im in the mood were not playing .

Chicken roast.

My daughter buzzes off mine, doing another this Friday when she stays.

Gotta mix butter with garlic and herbs and put it under the skin of the breast, before shoving in the oven.
Do it with roast spuds, roast parsnips and broccolli.

An absolute must is gravy using the fat from the chicken.

We roast our tatys in the juice with the chicken (or turkey if its christmas). Makes all the difference !

Dunno who Marco is Nanny.

Chicken is well better than beef if you ask me, beef can be too tough and pork a bit dry.

Roast lamb is sound tho.

I like most food and will try anything, beef, when cooked right, is beautiful. However I wont touch Liver, I love the smell when cooked with onions but the taste is just horrible. Love sprouts with my dinner as well, another thing that has to be cooked right.

There's no other way mate.

Place the chicken (breast down so it doesn't dry out) above the roasting dish on a separate shelf.
All the fat and juices then drip onto the spuds and parsnips.

Little tip for the gravy - add a teaspoon of brown sugar.    and use a chicken stock cube aswell as an oxo cube.

Since we've moved over here, after years of doing the pubs and being snowed under of a Sunday we've kind of gone all nuclear family. Sunday morning we have Bacon Barnies as my little girl calls em, cooked by Dad with tomato sauce. Im a bit of a believer in the family eating together at least once a week if poss, and on Sunday unless it's red hot we have a roast. The Mrs has a wee veggie patch down the side of the house and as a rule me and the kids will get some carrots or spuds or something out of that, and buy the rest. The kids love helping out to scrub the taties or wash the carrots, and the roast normally gets checked on accompanied by "ooh's and aah's" by the kids every ten minutes or so.

We munch it down and as a rule a bit of jelly and ice cream for afters does the trick. The kids go for a bit of hersheys chocolate sauce on top but i swerve that as it's a bit sweet even for me.

As for what type of meat, well lamb is fairly predictably beautiful over here, as is the local beef which is 100% grass fed. Pork is pricey funnily enough but lovely, while the free range chickens have presumeably been running around all over the shop and are full of flavour. The kids would go for the chicken I reckon, but for me it's a leg of lamb I think, with ay leftovers made into a nice cottage pie, any left over veggies like turnips and swedes left to melt into the sauce giving it an unctious sweetness.

I love Sunday dinners with the wife and kids. There's times when we're having a chat and one of the little uns comes out with something which makes you kind of laugh but almost blub with happiness as well. It's definately the best time of the week for me. The only time it isn't is when the mother in law comes round. Usually she's alright, but there are times when the stifled urge to smash her face in kind of takes the enjoyment out of the whole occasion.
