Kjotsupa - variation on an Icelandic lamb soup/stew. Icelandic stews tend to be not very strongly spiced like this one - you cook a larger piece of leg of lamb with onion and bay leaves in water (to make your own lamb “stock”) and than you add oats (to thicken) and rutabaga, carrots, potatoes and green cabbage) and some parsley.

No problem - will do it later tonight

Herbed ricotta gnocchi with lemon-green beans, bacon and parmesan (made to a significant part by our daughter - I could get used to that service)
-
It looks like the eggs curdled (and the pasta was nearly too cold when mixed) but the “curdled eggs” are actually clumped parmesan. Not sure what happened this time and you didn’t have “hard” pieces of parmesan when eating but it looked not as expected. We played around with different crispiness of pancetta over the years, and I know many people like carbonara with quite crispy pancetta (for some texture) but we actually don’t like it too crispy and prefer a very light “chew” (I can also never understand when people cook bacon that it is really crispy - I don’t like that texture and flavor - it often tastes a bit off)
-
Cod poached with tomatoes, thyme and garlic in broth and white wine over polenta (cooked in broth made with garlic, rosemary and thyme)

Bean Soup with tomatoes, onion, garlic, navy beans, vegetable broth, red wine and sage - briefly used the immersion blender to get the right consistency. Served with some home-made English Granary-Style bread

Sous-vide sichuan twice-cooked pork belly (sous-vide at 77C/170F for 9 hours with broad bean chili paste, finished with green peppers, garlic, ginger, chili, scallions and a sauce made from shaoxing rice wine, sous vide cooking liquid, hoisin sauce amd broad bean chili paste - overall very nice texture of the pork belly crisp on the outside, tender inside but still with a light chew - much better than braised or cooked). Served with stir-fried tatsoi with bamboo and ginger.

Doesn’t look particularly photogenic but quite tasty - lentil, hardboiled eggs and winter root vegetables (carrots, celeriac and rutabaga) pie (sauce made with diced tomatoes, red wine, vegetable broth, thyme, tomato paste, onion, garlic) with potato and sweet potato mash (with egg yolk and cheddar)

We tend to use onions relativelt interchangeably for raw and cooked dishes. I actually like red onions for stews/goulash as they add a nice color component.
