Fish and chips the @CheatCheap cook way?

Sure, fish fingers, homemade triple cooked potato wedges, bbq beans and a tartar sauce side.... served in a mini bucket.

Its how we role on Wednesdays in the #teamchuck house.

Ok @PlayStation

My 3 year old daughter has shown an interest in my old #Playstation4... what game do you or any of your followers recommend i download for her to play?

She is a quick learner, gets bored easily but loves big colours and big noise..

My incredibly talented amateur gardener of a wife has just harvested her first batch of homemade vegetables from the raised veg patch I built during #furlough #lockdown last year.

Now that's #teamwork

@KFC_UKI....

Well, this is one recipe we are looking far too....

[Brad Chuck @BradChuck]

"Tonight Matthew, via @CheatCheap , I'm going to attempt to make a leftover @KFC_UKI risotto "
This could be epic. Or just crap.

Tune in later for the results

@foodandwine @CheatCheap recommends this, we have a 'Skillet', a multifunctional iron cast pan that can be on the hob as well as in the oven

Best way to catch meat juices and turn into the greatest gravy ever

And yes, gravy. Don't you just love gravy?

#slowcooking the #sundayroast in our @RussellHobbsUK #slowcooker today.

By slow cooking, we are getting maximum flavour before crisping up in the oven

Our long term mission at #cheapcheatcook is to show how we can all #eatwell for less and get true #valueformoney on our weekly shopping spend

Companies that profiter from food parcels are not what we want too. We want families cooking together on a budget they can afford

How do we make the best use of the #kitchen during #lockdown?

It pays to take your time and review what is and what isn't in your cupboards, fridges and freezers so that you can #planahead when #cookingathome

Let's #keepcookingandcarryon

[Brad Chuck @BradChuck]

Is anyone still trying to complete #DryJanuary, #Veganuary, #detoxJan, #dietjan, #vegetarianjanuary etc?

#stayinghome is essential to save lifes right now, but living 24 hours a day with your kitchen a mere few metres away?

This is ridiculous

#lockdownstories #quarantinelife

[Cheap Cheat Cook @CheatCheap]

We shall see....

[Brad Chuck @BradChuck]

Getting my long overdue #freelance payment tomorrow

But until then it's a case of making a @CheatCheap masterpiece out of the last of whats in the freezer

#keepcookingandcarryon

[Cheap Cheat Cook @CheatCheap]

@BradChuck @RussellHobbsUK @jamesmartinchef @jamieoliver @Tesco And the result?

#slowcooked #sundayroast with cauliflower cheese, honey roast carrots, caramelised greens, triple cooked roast potatoes and yes, gravy.

Cheap, cheerful and not chewy

What to do with #leftover #Christmas #chestnuts?

Roast, skin, chop, mix with sausage meat, onion, sage, parsley then fry before adding 3 egg yolks and pasta water and add to spaghetti

You have chestnut carbanora

Marinated #LegofLamb for our #christmasdinner

In red wine, vegetables and rosemary, 3 days marinating before a slow roast in oven to create a charred crust and a moist centre

Easy and very affordable at this time of year
