Midweek meals

Today I'll be making a batch of this delicious carrot and spicy lentil soup - it's one of my favourites. Not only is it so quick and simple to make, it is earthy and warming on a cold, grey day.
If I have mine with some toasted cheese sandwiches then lunch will cost me around 500 calories. Here's just how simple it is to make:
Grate 600g carrot, add 150g red lentils, cover ingredients with stock and 200ml of milk, sprinkle in chilli flakes (and any other warm spices you fancy e.g. cumin) season and cook until softened. Taste then adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, then blend and taste again. Make a large batch and freeze if you can.
I've made another large batch of LAZY BEEF CURRY. It's so easy to make and freeze.
We like to use BEEF SKIRT, which is not only economical, but once slow cooked, it practically melts in your mouth. This curry is also quite low in calories and fat, unlike some takeaways and shop bought equivalents.
Here's what (1 kg of) beef skirt looks like, as you can see, it has a distinctive texture.
This cut of meat can be quick fried, as they do in France - with the bevette steak.
You will also find this cut of meat used to make Cornish pasties.
