are traditional sunday dinners going out the window.

I really like oxtail. When I was much younger it was so cheap, but it's actually a very tender and tasty meat if cooked right.

Now, for a really good Caldereta (beef stew) I always use shin of beef. That's also gotten to be a little bit expensive these days but used to be so so very cheap.
Cook it long,low and slow and you'll be amazed at just how melt-in-the-mouth and tasty it can be. Just wonderful. No other cut of beef comes anywhere near.

i wish every meal cud be a sunday lunch .. but if it isnt bloody sandwhiches or cooked in under two minutes its no good.. we just dont have that mediteranean or asian out look on family meal times.. we move to fast and want every thing then and there.. i think its time to slow lifes pace down a little or rather a bloody lot and start enjoying those lovely 2 hour lbreak fasts 2 hour lunches and 3 hour evening meals.. oops i guess that may rule out working for a living ha ha or going continental

Tonight we had mongo guisado with grilled sea-bass.

I've got to admit that I just Love mongo (stewed mung beans) . The taste is just fab.
Now my own special ingredient is to add some beansprouts. It then becomes a real Wow!!!!

It's unbelievably cheap, but what a great taste. There's easily enough for tomorrow, and guess what........it tastes even better the next day.
Normally I mop it up with fresh crusty bread instead of rice.

I cooked it here in the UK and my husband loves it too. I used fried pork (or fish/chicken) & sometimes I put some coconut milk. magnifiko!
