What Have You Cooked Recently?

Because I get up at an ungodly early hour to go to work, I often lack the time or don't make the time to make myself breakfast. I'm making oatmeal in the crockpot overnight with milk, brown sugar, blueberries, vanilla extract, and a little salt. I also have 4 or so pieces of leftover bacon from dinner, so if a serving of oatmeal isn't enough I can have that, too.

Slow cooker osso buco - I was a bit skeptical on if it'd come out as well as it does in the oven, but it totally did! I served it over some polenta/grits made of masa harina. Since all my attempts at tortilla-making have been a failure, I have to figure out how to use it up :B

Holy fuck that Georgian Cheese Bread looks good. I have a hand injury so I can't do as much in the kitchen lately. When I'm recovered I'm going to make that to the recipe, then I'm going to make it again filled with pizza sauce and pepperoni.

Made my husband some chocolate covered strawberry truffles for Valentine's day. Made a strawberry coulis and a ganache with a bit of cinnamon, then coated it in dark chocolate and gold sprinkles.

Country captain. It's a dish of curried rice with chicken. I prepare it the way I've seen it in Charleston, with rice, peas, carrots, onions, corn, and pepper stewed and then boiled with curry sauce. The chicken is blackened - seared with spices - and then baked in an oven and served on top, alongside cornbread.

Also a plate of blackened tilapia with greens, cheese grits, and oven-roasted potatoes coated with oil and spices.

Home made pizza. I like to add bacon, ham and some onion on it. Throw in a big pile of cheese as layers and I am good to go. Sauce I used was siracha. I was gonna make myself some pasta, but couldn't find any of the sauce I normally use at the market and didn't want to go to another one.

Mexican rice. Fried a chopped onion in a pan with some garlic, oregano, tomato paste, a can of rotel, knorr caldo de pollo, msg, salt,pepper, and taco seasoning. Also grilled a skirt steak.

Last thing I cooked was teriyaki salmon steak with a side of mac. That was a while ago, been a bit lazy.

Made Malaysian egg fried rice tonight (Uncle Roger method - check out Uncle Roger on youtube, creator is comedian Nigel Ng) - we all went back for seconds. Eaten too fast for photos.

Tried a gumbo recipe that came out well. It needed to considering I spent most of my Sunday evening looking for fish stock or bullion.

Deli meat black pepper chicken slices covered in gravy, canned corn, and then instant stuffing. Baked off. Who's a lazy bitch?

Since today is sprengidagur, I decided to make lamb pea soup for the week. First I boiled salted lamb still attached to the bone in water with a bay leaf, peeled ginger piece, star anise, and cloves. After cooking the meat nice and tender, I removed everything and dumped the bay leaf back in with onions, carrots, swede, potatoes, and yellow split peas. I grounded up the spices and added them back in with thyme. To finish, I added salt, pepper, ground turmeric, hot english mustard, and the minced cooked meat to cook for a few minutes before fishing out the bay leaf. The spices give it a nice warming flavor and the mustard gives it a kick. The idea for this type of pea soup comes from me using leftover Swedish Christmas ham which has a spiced mustard on it for use in making pea soup.

Get this stuff.

Really, all of these are good.

Also just shoved a pecan pie into the oven. I overmade the filling so it's an absolute certainty it's going to spill over the edges during cooking. I don't care. Pecan pie is basically sugar dissolved in sugar with a bit of fat added and some nuts. Who cares what it looks like?

That was a while ago, been a bit lazy.

I know that feeling; I don't think it's so much lazyness on my side, but that I've been literally trying to drag my entire list of cherished restaurants in this goddamn county through this scamdemic on my fucking back... I just can't even remember the last time I cooked.

Maybe a tray of barbecue baked beans for a family potluck in January.

Vichyssoise with homemade crème fraîche and homemade beef stock. Also Million Dollar Chicken with an herb and garlic butter under the skin, spatchcocked - was the juiciest and most flavorful chicken I've ever had.

Going to make Bordelaise sauce and French Onion soup once I get my 25 lbs. of veal bones and make demi-glace.

Pecan pie is probably one of my favorite pies and pecan bars are so good.

Cooked a very marbled chuck steak to medium rare and made my own steak sauce.

Steak sauce: still in progress
2 Tbl spn terreaki sauce
1 tbl spn balsamic vinegar
1 tbl spn of apple cider vinegar
2 tbl spn of garlic powder
1 tbl spn of black pepper
1 tbl spn of chili powder
large squirt of ketchup
dash of salt
mix and let sit so the liquid absorbs into the dry powders.

used after meat is cooked.

A kilo of quality pork tenderloin in grass-fed butter, seasoned with salt , pepper and BBQ seasoning. First brown the meat, turn down heat and cover pan with lid to create a jus from the condensation and cook till slightly pink in middle still. Rest for 10 minutes et voila! Pork tenderloin is truly underrated as a cut of meat, often cheap and tasty when prepared well!

Vegetable curry to this recipe but substituting collard greens for kale, basmati rice for brown, and adding a touch of Madras curry. Tbh I think this would be improved by adding another root vegetable to it. Potatoes or any starchy vegetable like that, like yuca, jicama, maybe even weirder stuff like taro or yams.

Thanks for the suggestion. My issue Sunday was that no grocery stores had any seafood stock or bouillon, so I had literally nothing for the recipe I finally had found fish stock at the back of a shelf in a Giant Eagle.
