Quick outing with this children round Marbury this morning and then started this marinade ready for Asian style roast beef with satay sauce for dinner tonight. Honestly this is super easy. I’ve got a big sirloin but this would also work with a roasting joint, just cover in foil. To make the marinade add a generous splash of fish sauce, chopped coriander and mint, 2 tsp minced garlic, 1tsp minced ginger, chilli sauce (mine are actually minced chillies but if you prefer sweeter you could use chilli sauce...) generous ground pepper & lemongrass. I’ve also added two large spoonfuls of peanut butter. Stir well and slather all over your beef and leave in the fridge until this afternoon. The satay is super easy: one tin of coconut milk, splash of tamari soy sauce, three large spoonfuls of peanut butter and either lemongrass or juice of a fresh lime. Mix together in a pan and simmer until it starts to thicken and set aside. All of this took ten minutes this morning. Easy peasy... back to work! #lockdownmealideas #asianbeef #beefsatay #lowcarbflavour #lowcarbmeals #eatlocal #addspice #keepthingsinteresting #satay https://www.instagram.com/p/B_hvDPNAR6g/?igshid=1vyzu9jnl2cx3

Freezer meals going far tonight... Chilli con carne freezes really well and you can quickly whip up some accompaniments to make a full meal for a big family here. This one portion actually will feed 10. The best thing about this chilli? Made in the instapot/slow cooker as an ‘all in one’ method so for those short on time this is perfect for you! In your instapot or crockpot or slow cooker add the following: A pack of chopped/sliced onions OR slice two large onions Two stalks of celery chopped (optional) 800g-1kg of beef mince (no need to go lean on this one, you’ll need the fat in the beef for the cooking) Punnet of mushrooms chopped Two tins of chopped tomatoes 1 tbsp of ground coriander 2tbsp of ground cumin 2tbsp of ground paprika 1tsp garlic granules (or two crushed cloves) 1 bag of frozen chopped peppers OR a couple of red or yellow peppers chopped Put the lid on the pot, either slow cook on low overnight OR use the beans/chilli setting on an instapot. When it’s finished, add a tin of rinsed and drained kidney beans and black beans, stir well and cook for another half hour. Enjoy! #instapotmeals #chilliconcarne #lockdownmealideas #onepotmeals #freezermeals #lowcarbmeals https://www.instagram.com/p/B--X1U9A5BK/?igshid=14eoyz3zghuhr
