Pork fillet with white wine and coriander.

Pork fillet (the recipe says 1 1/2 lbs), chopped to 1/2" cubes
1 green pepper, de-seeded and chopped
1 onion, peeled and chopped
1/4 pint chicken or vegetable stock
1/4 pint white wine
1/2 oz flour
1 tbsp coriander powder or freshly ground coriander seeds
salt and pepper
olive oil

Cut the pork fillet into small cubes (scissors are easiest), brown in olive oil. Add chopped pepper and onion, lightly cook for 8-10 minutes. Stir in flour and coriander, cook for 1 minute. Gradually add stock and white wine, stirring, season to taste, simmer for 5-10 minutes.

This is very simple and quick, and it was GOOD (I don't usually measure accurately, but the recipe is very forgiving). Had it with lightly boiled spring greens and a few glasses of an Argentinian Chenin Blanc Torrontes.

Hi Andrew!   We ate at Moe's Southwest Grill on Zelda Road.  I've eaten there a few times, and it's fun.  We eat at another one more often, called San Marcos.

Did you make the Yorkshire w/lard or veg oil?

Richard,,
Toad in the hole is fried toast with a hole cut into it and an egg cooked into it.  I tried it but my egg did not stay in. 
What; Yorkshire pudding?  My cookbook says that you use pop-up batter and hot grease.
Anyone make Bubble'n Squeak?  It sounds interesting.  Like hash! 
I like corned beef but my family hates it. 
 
Today we had leftover chicken gumbo with chipotle sausage.   
Also steamed jasmine rice from the Chinese store.  Yum!  I'll never go back to stale rice.  It's like the texas basmati rice but much cheaper in price.  Rice is grown locally but they sell it by the wholesale price in truckloads. 
The store stuff is old and its price is mostly packaging cost.
 
I also baked some chicken breast pieces with lemon juice, montreal chicken seasoning and a bit of margarine(no butter on diet).     

[Thomas Matta]

two hard boiled eggs, a diet snapple, and decaf with cream.

Simple start to a day!

3 piece fried chicken at Williams Chicken (I dropped my wife off at the airport a few minutes before that, so this explains my ability to eat such unhealthy fair without being griped at!

Eh?  The only TinH I know of is sausages cooked in a Yorkshire...lemme see if I can google a recipe...

Toad in the Hole

Prepare a Yorkshire Pudding batter:

¼ cup of bacon dripping
½ cup milk
1 egg, well-beaten
½ cup sifted all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt

Fry sausages and lay them in the batter. Bake as for yorkshire pudding:

Temp: 450º F Time: 10 - 15 min. If you use a glass pie plate turn the heat down 25°F.

Detailed directions

Combine a well-beaten egg and milk; beat till light. Gradually beat in sifted flour and salt; beat with dover beater till smooth. Let stand 30 minutes.

Put about 2 tablespoons bacon dripping into pan or divided up between 6 large muffin tins or into an 8"x8" pan. Heat in oven, make sure you watch pan as it will start to smoke! Pour batter into hot pan; and lay in your sausages. Serves 4.

The trick is the hot fat and the hot oven. Don't keep opening the oven to check. Serve immediately as it will deflate as it gets cold. Pour nice beef gravy over top.

Serve with Mash Potatoes, Marrowfat Peas and Gravy
