Weekend Cooking: Busy Saturday

Today was the usual Saturday with meals prepared for the coming week's lunches, a curry for dinner during the week and some baking as well. A fairly typical production so I can just reheat something for dinner on nights I come back dead tired and a little variety for lunch keeps things interesting and stops me spending money eating out. The best part is this takes only 1 hour as the rest is just preparing 2 portions of my weekend meals.

Another version of cheater's cake with plain yoghurt substituted for the milk/egg. Topped with wrinkly pluots, this is a very soft pudding-like cake with a slight tang. Delicious and so pretty too.

Pluot cake as part of a healthy lunch.
Fried rice noodles with chives, fishcakes and shrimp. Pickled radish adds a sweetness to the dark soy and oyster sauce.

Cauliflower, minced chicken and spinach in Shan murgh cholay mix with a spinach paratha. So, so spicy it makes me sweat.
