Qtn: what meal do you eat Sunday afternoon in your home. ....or tell me what meal is eaten in your home country for Sunday lunch?
......for instance, this Sunday, I cooked and served my family the following (see pic insert):
Fried egg and plantain
Savoury rice
Roast potatoes
BBQ chicken
Red stew
...and because my boys aren't crazy about vegetables, I served slices of fresh plum cold tomatoes. (Refrigerating the tomatoes makes the tomato slices taste better than when served warm)
