Depends what you do with it.
For example; making a red wine, shallot & mushroom gravy to have with roast beef & making the yorkshire puddings with wholegrain mustard.

See I'd rather have a nice fillet steak with that delicious sounding Red Wine, Shallot and Mushroom gravy
With one of your fancy Puds on the side.

Roasted fillet is good. I prefer rib on the bone myself.

I can't picture the mushroom and red wine combination there, not saying it doesn't work, just saying I can't picture it.
I'm more talking about your generic "Bung a load stuff in the oven" type of roast dinner. It's a right hassle for one too, so much gets unused in the initial meal. I always think they're mostly made on a sunday because they're so easy to make (which also why I'd never choose that option in a resturant.).

That's not always the case, sometimes I love a roast dinner, its just most of the time, I would rather do something else with the ingredients.

Yeah, well. It's a British dish.
Probably why you don't like it.

Mushroom and red wine sauce is pretty classic Gonz

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Fri 8 Mar 2013, 11:34, Reply)

I have a copy of this
www.amazon.co.uk/New-Larousse-Gastronomique-Hamlyn/dp/0600620425

More of a reference book of food rather than a cook book. Contains all those sorts of classic dishes.
( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Fri 8 Mar 2013, 11:37, Reply)

He doesn't know it as it contains no cream.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 8 Mar 2013, 11:39, Reply)

Zing

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Fri 8 Mar 2013, 11:39, Reply)

To be fair, I think I might have bought cream maybe 10 times in my life.
