Roast What should I have for dinner?

[Proper Gander]

I’m going to the market shortly but I can’t until I’ve made a list. And I can’t do that until I’ve worked out what to have.

I was thinking something seafoody like maybe a Bouillabaisse with croutons and rouille but I just can’t decide. It’s a bit of a pain to make what with the stock and all, then getting left with a massive pile of bones and aromatics and so forth, but really nice.

But what if I’ve got this really wrong and I actually feel like chicken?

What’s in season right now? Maybe I’ll go look it up.

Could someone tell me what to eat? I feel as though it might take me a while to get it together otherwise.

Many thanks

PG

Also don’t move this thread Scythe because it is footy related in a way.

Does the "roast" tag indicate you're having a roast, Gander?

This is actually meant to be in hell, but I stuffed it up somehow. Never mind - this kind of content deserves to be properly showcased.

Turns out these are the seasonal vegetables:

Artichoke, Asian greens; bok choy, choy sum, gai laan and wonga bok, asparagus; green and purple, avocado; fuerte, hass and sharwill, beans; broad and green, broccoli, cabbage, carrot, cauliflower, garlic, ginger, leek, lettuce, mushrooms, onion, peas, potato, silverbeet, spinach.

Grand Final Eve is a sacred tradition dating back to when the Victorian government all gave us the day off a few years ago.

No thanks. I think it has found its way to the right place.

Well, who am I to argue?

Proper Gander, have you considered one warm Milo?

How many posts should I get before I ask for a megathread tag?

One of the things I like about this forum is how the posters responsible with clogging up the board with random threads are former mods.

Most of the content across the board ultimately turns random anyway.

(Might be some former mods who have played a role here as well)

"Clogging" is a strong word, 'legs.

Have you checked Trac's socials for an6 ideas? Gotta help his #brand to keep him happy!

This would also tie the thread a little bit more to football.

Would that entail getting TikTok? Not sure. Isn’t that the app where once you download it you get kidnapped by Chinese Triads in a submarine?

Then there's this poor sap who is in Melbourne today, but had to take an annual leave day from their work in Sydney

Beautiful sunny day Gander. If I was someone else I'd go for something light and healthy to save room for BEERS

Instead I'm me and I'm still sick with Sydney Flu so I'm having a tofu stir fry with deadly amounts of chilli in it, tim tams, orange juice and doritos. Hope that helps.

wonga bok

This one sounds fake af.

I’ve never heard of it.

Makes me think of when I last lived in Canberra in this lovely house where the lady who had rented it had made the most beautiful garden. Citrus, peach tree, carefully chosen flowering shrubs and beautiful herbs.

I had a bbq there and invited all my colleagues to celebrate the removal of our truly horrible branch manager. Amongst other things I was cooking lamb because I had spotted a beautiful crop of lemon thyme. Turns out it was just some random plant and not lemon thyme, and tasted like charred grass clippings. Lucky everyone was pretty plastered so I kept it to myself and served extra margaritas as a distraction.

He's also got an instagram channel if you don't believe in a Community of a Shared Future for All Mankind or Xi Xinping Thought.
