For me, it’s a simple noodle dish. Boil water with some soy sauce and sesame oil (stock if I have it). Add an egg, tomato, bok choy and rice noodle or noodle. Add a few shrimp, cook till noodle is al dente. Add white pepper.
Can’t say its gourmet but it’s something soothing for me.
Mashed potatoes with gravy and peas on the side or sometimes mixed into the potato.
avgolemono (especially if I’m under the weather)
tetrazzini
fasolakia (Greek long cooked green beans)

Mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. It doesn’t happen in my kitchen; but, my aunt makes it when I visit her. Usually we eat it in our pajamas.
No recipe but this is the basics. No proportions available, just eye it
Leg of lamb-medium grind
Brown lamb with onions. Season with s/p, herbs can be any of the following or combination; rosemary, thyme, oregano
Dice carrots and mix with frozen peas and season. I don’t remember if I cooked these before putting it together. Something tells me I didn’t since there was adequate time for the carrots to soften while in the oven but don’t hold me to that
Potatoes peeled, diced, boiled and mashed with butter. Seasoned with s/p
Layer and toss in a 350 oven until the top is nicely browned
This was what I had on hand that day at that moment. Please customize to your taste
I cook off the cuff most often. Sadly I don’t menu plan and almost everything I cook is spur of the moment depending on what’s in the fridge, freezer and pantry and how much time I have. When I shop, I buy what looks good and is a good deal and work from that. Of course certain stables are kept on hand at all times
