What do you have planned for dinner this Friday night? Instead of splashing out on a takeaway or heading to a busy restaurant, why not rustle up your usual eating-out favourites in your own kitchen? The ‘fakeaway’ approach can be a lot healthier, as you’re more in control of exactly what’s going into your food, and you can even limit the amount of oil you’re using when you’re using Circulon cookware, thanks to our unique Total Non-Stick System®. Spend your Friday date night together in the kitchen trying out new cooking skills and experimenting with new flavours - a much better way to enjoy quality time with your other half than trying to hear each other in a noisy restaurant. It’s also a lovely way to treat loved ones to something a little bit different. Check out our ideas for transforming your Friday night dinners for good:
Next, you need a slap-up main course; to really impress, forget the bolognese or stews you cook time and time again, and try something new. Our lamb tagine or venison with blueberry sauce and celeriac mash would make beautiful recipes for a romantic date night or a dinner party with friends. Use Circulon cookware with its superior non-stick finish and even heat distribution to help your food to cook perfectly, and everyone will feel like they’re eating restaurant-standard food. These dishes may need a little more time than your usual midweek meals, but it’ll definitely be worth it, as you’ll get the chance to flex your cooking skills and experiment with different ingredients to create superb flavour.
You could also take your usual Friday night traditions to the next level with homemade beer-battered fish and chips, which is a lighter meal than anything you can buy in your local chippy - especially when you use a non-stick Circulon oven tray that doesn’t require any extra oil - and the batter tastes seriously good. A non-stick stockpot will be invaluable in crisping up that delicious batter, helping to ensure your fish emerges from the pan with a perfect crunchy covering.
Go for a restaurant classic with our recipe for a homemade tiramisu, incorporate traditional Black Forest flavours in our chocolate cherry pavlova or go for something a little bit different that would be perfect for a romantic Friday night with our matcha, raspberry and dark chocolate sharing dessert. Give one of these gorgeous recipes a go on your next Friday night in. You’ll be saving yourself money by not eating out, you’ll be more in control of what you’re putting into your body, and you’ll get the chance to have a lot of fun in the kitchen too!
