Recipes from around the farm - I found the recipe so you don’t have too

[eatler]

I’ve been in a lot of conversations where an off topic recipe comes up. If you would like to spare the brain cells of people who don’t often visit the thunderdome or other areas of the website, repost yours or a fellow kiwis recipe here.

Here’s a starter one, I’m going to find the tuna fish recipes when I have the time time.

This part has made me pretty MATI. If you are so stupid that you spend $18 on a Big Mac you may deserve to starve to death. I decided to put together a Walmart shopping list of an extremely cheap chili that anyone can make in a slow cooker, as well as with some rice to eat with it so you can get even more bang for your buck. It came out to $18.30

Now are these ingredients I would personally use? No, but if I was starving and wanted to meal prep, chili is by far the best food to do this with. It freezes well, you can eat it with pasta, eggs, rice and bread to stretch it, and if you have a slow cooker its basically a dump meal. All the ingredients are flexible, is sausage on sale? Use that! Dont like beans? Well remove them. Already have all the spices, dont buy the spice mix!

Oh god that was just something I threw together to sperg about spending $18 on fast food.


Basic Chili in the slow cooker
1-2 onions any kind that you like
2-3 cans of beans, I like red kidney
1 28oz can of crushed tomato
2 cans of diced tomato
5-10 Jalapeno peppers
1-3 pounds of ground meat
Chili seasoning, use what you prefer, I like Caroll Shelbys brand
Water or beer

Prep veggies, dice onions, core jalapeno peppers, drain canned beans
Brown ground meat on skillet
Throw everything into slow cooker, fill with choice of liquid, less is more, everything will sweat water. Low for 6-8 hours if you are patient, high for 4 hours.
Serve basically with any grain, I like to eat on top of rice

As you can tell I basically dont think about this recipe, its an easy way to combine cheap ingredients, youll make enough that youll be sick of chili, it freezes very well though so you can always pull out a serving and microwave it. Ive done stuff like add red wine and chocolate, corn, used stew meat, used ghost peppers. Use your imagination, if you think it would be good in chili it probably will be. When I was learning to cook fresh out of school I did a lot of slow cooker meals, its a great device if you are nervous about cooking because most recipes designed for the slow cooker are designed to be fool proof.

I’m going to post some recommendations of how to prep tuna from mass debates.

Spoiler: Tuna posts

No that goes into my mac n' cheese. You aint lived life till you tried a little sweet baby rays and some mac

I put hot sauce on my Mac

And mix tuna into it

Absolute heresy. Mayonnaise and some green peas are the way.

I eat my tuna mixed in with cheap pasta. Anything less is a waste of tuna

My mom actually recommends frying them in like bread crumbs. If you get bored with the taste.

My favourite thing to do with canned tuna is make up a garlic and cheese bechemel and mix it in with some frozen peas, cooked rice or pasta and then bake it with cheese on top.

Tuna salad but with a small amount of currry powder in it.

Then put some on ritz crackers. No cheese, you heathen. It's canned tuna.

I I meant i liked to use canned tuna in Mac and cheese to give it some saltiness and savoriness. But I would also add ricotta or cottage cheese to the boxed powder and I agree adding a bit of real cheese helps the flavor no matter what.

Goddamn, this sounds disgusting.

Make a fucking roux, add cheese and milk, salt and pepper, a lil garlic powder. Dump in cooked macaroni, cover with cheddar (fuck you Jersh), bake until melty and sexy.

My go-to is to toast a shitload of black pepper in a dry pan, combine a 50/50 mix of pecorino and parmesan with a little hot starchy pasta water and stir it into a thick cream, then add the cooked pasta and cheese to the pan and toss until coated, then add some more fresh pepper.

That sounds awesome with all the pepper, I will have to try it. I usually just make a béchamel and add whatever cheese I have in the fridge (definitely not cheddar, but always gorgonzola and parmesan) and then throw the cooked pasta in. I also don't usually use macaroni, not the biggest fan of the shape. I like rotini or some kind of shell a lot better.

You'll want to use a long pasta for this one so you can twirl it around in the cream with a pair of tongs, spaghetti, linguine or bucatini are best. If you have to go short, fusilli will probably work best.

Same thread less tuna

Spoiler: Recipe

I recommend this dish if you have a good big oven.

Take bell peppers, red onions, and a good collection of different mushrooms. Cut them all rather roughly, like pieces the length of a finger. Heat some coconut oil until its liquid if you live in a cold climate. Use your hands to rub it in and also add generous pepper and salt. Don't underseason.

Put it flat in the oven where it is all seperated.

While you cook it, take a lot of dill and chop it as finely as you can (I wouldn't grind it, but up to you). If you like it add some hot peppers as well, but I think it's better without.

When the dish is cooked, Set it outside and let it cool down. When it's room temperature you can put it in the fridge, or mix through the dille and serve.

Spoiler: Recipe

Look, listen.

Other Stuff You'll Need:​

* mixing bowl * sauce pan * cookie sheet * measuring cup * toothpick

Directions:
1. Melt butter in sauce pan and stir in sugar until it dissolves.
2. Cool and then add egg and vanilla.
3. Stir together flour, baking powder and salt.
4. Stir in the butter mixture and then add coconut.

If your broke and want to try some new ways to eat beans from Q&A

I don't see a reason why you couldn't. Especially a roast with green beans/and or peas, potatoes and gravy is a nice combination.

You can put green beans on top of your mashed potatoes and gravy. Just about anything, in fact, can be mixed into mashed potatoes and gravy.

What do you think baked beans are? Also, just from soaking them, they make liquor that you should definitely use to flavour and thicken your ham broth.

Corn and black beans mixed with mashed potatoes was my go to meal when I was broke and knew I'd only eat once a day.

I’m usually a broke bitch so I just usually combine beans with spaghetti sauce and seasonings to keep me walking.

Italian and either cyan pepper or chili powder. I also add actual garlic (not powder) because it’s cheap to get cloves and adding garlic powder makes it too gritty.

The sauce is usually Kroger brand spaghetti sauce. I actually like the meat one a lot and it’s a lot better (in my opinion) than the brand name stuff.

Beans with spicy red sauce and oregano. I'll try it. Thanks, fren!

Sauerkraut is really easy to make, healthy and a great addition to many dishes.

All you need to do is cut up some cabbage (or any other similar vegetable, in German it would be any type of Kohl, but it doesn't translate well), put salt on in, punch the fuck out of it until its softened up and letting out its juices. Now put it into a fermentation crock (or an old, cleaned pickle jar works fine) and always keep everything under liquid.
Wait 2 weeks or so and you are done.
A good salt to cabbage ratio is 15g per kg cabbage.
You can add other spices if you want.

I'm using quart mason jars with lids that look like this. I fermented garlic cloves for about a month as an experiment.

Cabbage is about to go on sale.

The next level is to use an Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker, and pressure cook to quickly make dried beans which are extremely cheap compared to canned.

Chili spaghetti is one cheap source of calories.

If you make just beans, try mashing them up once they are soft enough. Add some smoked turkey or something.

Pasta is one of my go to carbs for chili since its so cheap and easy.

My instantpot broke I should get another, I just found I was only using it to make pasta sauce so I never really bothered.

To add to the beans, if you are like me and buy pork shoulders, you can save the bones and just throw them in beans to add a ton of flavor. I always keep a bone or two frozen for whenever I do 10 bean soup.

Dried beans are a killer app, since 1 pound cooked is about 4x 15oz cans and usually less than $1/lb in bulk. Pressure cooking frozen chicken is another good one. You can make pulled pork in a fraction of the time it would take to slow cook it, but you might want to brown it in an oven at the end. I prefer it for fast sauteeing but I don't have anything to compare it to other than the stove. You can also make yogurt in there, which isn't a big deal and could require it to be occupied for a day.

Here's my recipe for a delicious plant based snack. For this you will need one pecan tree and two rocks.
Step 1: find nut.
Step 2: smash nut.
Step 3: eat nut.

Canned marinara sauce. It's so easy to make it at home. Cook half a diced onion and 3 cloves garlic in a pan with some oil until translucent, season with salt and pepper, add 28 oz can of crushed red tomatoes and simmer for 15 minutes, season to taste. It's that easy. If you want to upgrade it, add basil, oregano, rosemary, whatever tastes good to you. Put cooked ground beef in there if you want. Please, anything but the store-bought stuff.

Pickling stuff is nice. I've only done red onions with garlic though. Threw some pearl onions in a pepperoncini jar once as well.
