I thought that placed closed years ago until a girl in work went to a wedding reception in it a few months back. It maybe just looks closed from the main street in 5town.

What do you do with Halloumi?

What do you do with Halloumi?

Slice and fry in some olive oil until browned both sides. Nice wee salty snack with some chilli sauce or pesto

Can anyone recommend any handy, healthy meals to cook for evening dinner? Jaysus, it's such a feckin' chore rustling up something every day. Need some help.

Whack it in a burger, lovely with some chilli jam.

Have you a slow cooker? Shocking handy they are.
Throw in some diced chicken, veg, potatoes, spinach whatever the feck you want along with a curry paste/powder and leave it to cook as you go about your business.
Would often chop everything the night before and throw it all into the slow cooker in the morning and let it cook on low for 8hrs, when you come home then you have a dinner ready bar throwing on some rice or whatever.
Can make casseroles, ribs anything really.
We would use ours a few times a week.

Keep meaning to look about a slow cooker. Might reduce the chances of me getting fish fingers and potato waffles from the missus

My go to meal and it is Keto/Atkins friendly, healthy and SIMPLE

Garlic Shrimp with Broccoli
1 lb of shrimp (thawed)
2-4 cups of broccoli
3-8 gloves of garlic (depending on preference) more garlic better IMO
1 stick of butter

Put broccoli in pot to steam about 8-10 minutes ahead of pan below ( you can slice garlic now)
Slice garlic (thin) and place in pan with melting butter (medium low heat) stir for 3-5 minutes
place shrimp (pat dry with paper towel) in pan and cook till one side is pink then flip, same on other side
once broccoli is steamed place in pan stir around for a minute (on medium high) coating everything in butter and garlic serve right away, pour remaining butter from pan over plated food

I like a kick to it so I throw a pinch or two of crushed red pepper over the top of plated food and adds color

this should feed 2-3 people
should only take 10-18 minutes total

Easy and healthy and minimal cleanup afterwords

All the foods (to me anyways) taste samey from the slow cooker, and that's ranging from curry's casseroles, and stews. But yes handy as fook to use

[BennyCake]

Yes we have a slow cooker. Rarely used. Some good ideas. Cheers.

Id agree with that, in fact Id go further Id say it pulls the flavour outta everything. And veg just forget about them

Good for making tough meat cuts tender but you need to pile in the flavourings, red wine is about the best thing for hanging in there in my experience
