Tweak week 1...

….recipe help

Take a look at the Nasi Goreng recipe (Culinary Lucky Dip) and you'll see there's very little to prepare for Monday supper. You don't have to make the omelette top. You can use microwave rice. Put your prawns in a sealed container in the fridge on Sunday to defrost in time for use on Monday evening.

Smoke the chicken fillets – poach them in chicken stock for 6/7 minutes and allow them to cool in the stock. The smoked chicken fillets should be small – set your timer and leave to their own devices! When you are smoking your chicken fillets include the extra 175g to include in the Nasi Goreng.

The soup really is straight forward and can be on the hob simmering whilst you are moving on to make your paté.

I've said baked jacket potatoes plural, since you may be serving more than one person in your new “tweak week”. Wrap the required number in foil and bake whilst your oven is on.

For the potato filling :

120g approx tin of tuna in sunflower oil

sweetcorn

one red onion, chopped finely

one tsp garlic paste

pinch of chilli

salt and black pepper

malt vinegar

1 tsp creamed horseradish

Flake the tuna using a drop of the sunflower oil. If you are using tuna already drained then use a drop of rapeseed oil. Add malt vinegar, season and add the remaining ingredients, mix well.

Roast your beetroot in your trusted foil tray.

The Squashed does take some boring slicing and dicing but it's not too bad – if you're feeling adventurous peel and dice a small bunch of beetroot into small cubes and add to the recipe – it's not compulsory – just a thought. If you can't be bothered to prep the bunch of beetroot then buy vac packed organic beetroot – cube it and add it when the Squashed vegetables are cooked.
