Pork fillet made into saltimbocca - great fun bashing out the medallions at the end of a busy week at work. Also managed to find enough sage in the garden for the top of these, and a small bottle of marsala in the cupboard with a glassful left in it for the sauce. I always have parma ham in the fridge as bulk buy it in Lidls as find it so useful to at to many things, and it keeps forever.
I really love dauphinoise potatoes, but obviously they are off the menu at the moment, so I layered sliced seasoned potatoes and onions and covered them with chicken stock mixed with a dash of white wine. Started them in the microwave, and then transferred to the oven to absorb all the stock. For a special treat a sprinkle of low fat cheddar on the top for the last 10 minutes.
Lack of presentation skills on display for this meal, as served with three vegetables - steamed spinach, green beans, and a pack of asaparagus tips that were reduced so needed to be purchased.
We are off today to the Oriental supermarket in Portsmouth, so tonights meal will be planned around whatever takes our fancy in there - possible some Dim Sum - either ready made, or made when we get home this afternoon.
