Saag was a ripper. Left a bit too much sauce in due to personal preference, and laziness brought on by a couple of arvo beers. Heaps of extra heat, lamb falling apart.
Kofta on point as well. Sauce toned down to meet children's tastebuds.

-
@Catogrande ay?? Please don't tell me you associate corned beef with people from the Midlands, not happy about that Cato... Didn't even realise meat came in a tin form until I was in food tech in year 9.

Google says fray bentos appears to be some sort of tinned pie!? How does that work??

I bought a tinned pie in the UK because I was both gobsmacked that it existed, and curious as to how bad it could be.
Answer: Really Really Bad.
-
@R-L For sure they did tinned pies but majored in corned beef. Fray Bentos was the port that it was originally all shipped out from in Argentina.
Apologies for the implied slur. My sincerity sometimes offends.

Wagamama published their katsu curry recipe and by chance we had all the ingredients so gave it a nudge.
Really good. We used left over spatchcock chicken instead with carrots and potatoes. Will be the Rage family staple now for day after a roast chook
Next up, pizza express have published their dough balls ....

I’ve always loved corned beef but the mrs hates it.. pretty much barred from our home
With a hone made mustard sauce it was the best, such an affordable cut of meat as well.See back in the thread, I have posted the Brick Lane Beigel Shop recipe for Salt Beef using brisket instead of the usual kiwi version using silverside.
Just remember to call it Salt Beef rather than corned beef and declare that it is an old traditional jewish recipe (I believe that criticising anything Jewish is still not allowed).I agree though, well made salt/corned beef is delicious.
One from yesteryear that has gone out of fashion is 'Pickled Pork'. I can't even remember much about it except it was around a fair bit in the 70s. Must look it up.
Edit: here's a reasonable sounding recipe using cider vinegar. (Cue bad jokes about Pork in Cider)

Had a crack at a Sunday roast from a cookbook I bought a while ago - 'Nothing Fancy' by Alison Roman. Quite like a lot of the recipes in the book, so gave the roast chicken with oregano and buttered tomatoes a go. Served it with roast pumpkin and some homemade garlic bread, went down a treat. But how can you screw up a roast chook?
Followed it up with one of her dessert recipes, a salted honey panna cotta with raspberries. Now that was the real winner. Panna cotta had a hint of sourness about it that paired really nicely with the sweet berries.
Below is the cookbook image of each accompanied by my attempt on the right.
And dessert:

The right, though I was wearing that exact shade of nail polish AND doing some sort of tarot card reading at the time, so I can see why there is some confusion...
