Did just make some Mongolian Beef which was pretty awesome but as I was starving after my run I ate it all before snapping a photo...

But, I did also make some Red Velvet cookies earlier as well :)

Saturday night is steak night.

From left to right on the main plate is a bavette steak, cooked rare and well seared; grilled mini portobello mushrooms and triple cooked chips. Bavette is a delicious cut of beef, very flavourful. The mushrooms were nice and juicy. I'm now a convert to triple cooked chips - if you aren't making chips this way, you're doing it wrong :p

The bowl in the back contains onion rings done in a tempura batter. If you look closely, you'll see some smaller rings/pieces at the front of the bowl, those are chilli rings - in this case Scotch Bonnet, done in the same way. Very, very hot but also very, very tasty.
 
Tonight I did King Crab crabcakes with a mango salsa

did the chips going into the freezer between cooking?

No, just the fridge. I've tried them in the freezer before but didn't notice any great improvement.

Your crab cake with mango salsa sounds good - any chance of a recipe?
 
Alternative for crushing crackers is put them in a zip seal bag/sandwich bag and then use the rolling pin on the bag. Works a treat
 
Nice one!

I had a Sunday afternoon bake, of "we have bananas going too ripe" so cooked a banana cake. Recipe was joint effort between the Mrs and I.
I have to say that, as she is the one that makes sure it will come out properly! ha

Served it with caramel sauce and custard. I nearly died.
