What Have You Cooked Recently?

[Buster O'Keefe]

Some outrageously good sausages, creamy mash and mushy peas, with onion gravy.:

I'd just watched Masterchef so this was my attempt at fancying it up.

My New Years Eve dinner
The only downside is that I wish there was more steak

 

[Buster O'Keefe]

Assembled a prawn cocktail: was delightful.

A couple of those Lou Malnati's pizzas I got as a gift. More or less as I've heard, pretty good but overpriced. The pepperoni is better. The sausage is a bit odd, more or less a one piece patty over the entire pie. Both were entirely edible though. I bet I could actually do something more or less like this at home.

Chicken mole. Also had a bottle of cava for New Years'. Ended up making so much mole sauce that I'm going to have to figure out ways to use it up. Roommate had never had it before, seemed to like it.

 

[AnOminous]

Chicken and noodles from a Scalfani style recipe that is mostly dumping things from cans and bags of frozen stuff. I roasted the chicken myself though.

 

[Whatthefuck]

Very basic toasted bagels with cream cheese, capers, chives, and smoked salmon. You just can't beat it.

My favorite for this kind of thing is just cream cheese and sliced green olives.

I made a boullibaise for New Year eve, but I actually managed to make to much for my husband and me. We couldn't eat the leftovers last night because it's bad luck to eat crab and lobster on New Years day, so tonight I'm tutning it into chowder. I'm reducing the broth, thickening it with cream, and adding some more nugget potatoes (plus some carrots). I may make some Turkish bread as well.

Tomato soup from scratch. Turned out a lot better than the canned stuff, anyway.

 

[White Baby]

I was going to make a steak, but the second I got it out of the packaging I was hit in the nose with a downright sulphuric smell. Very disappointing because it looked like a quality piece of meat before it went bad.

 

[Jaded Optimist]

We did this last night! Except with a cioppino (China has just blocked import of lobsters from Aussie in their latest 'we're not mad at all about you calling for a Covid inquiry' trade spat, so they are dirt cheap at the moment).

I'd never thought two of us couldn't finish the whole pot, but I really did make enough for 4 lol. So I picked all the mussels out, chunked the remaining lobster tail and kept it all in the sauce with the prawns and squid. Tonight I'll gently re-heat and toss with fresh pasta.

Queens of double duty over here.

That sounds delicious!

I salt cured some sockeye salmon for the first time, now I can't stop eating it

I wonder if this could be extended to full Lox grade salt

 

[Adamska]

I just said fuck it and air fried some chicken nuggets. It was okay, especially with the bottle of barbecue sauce I found in the fridge.

 

[An Ghost]

Slow cooker soup. Sauted peppers and spices. And 5 cans of beans. Top notch farts.

 

[AnOminous]

I have a pot of Italian bean soup on the stove. This is one of the few times a Jack Scalfani video has inspired me to make something. Not because I want to imitate what Jack did but because it was so offensive I wanted to do it right. Also I happened to have a bag of the Hurst's 15 bean soup that is the main ingredient and have been looking for a reason to use.

I guess it's beans day.

buddy brought some leftover Bloomin Onion
: D
no sauce

seems to be on the right track, threw shit together from this, had plain prepped horseradish instead of creamy, didn't bother with more salt, using it in about 20m instead of letting it steep, but it's definitely good enough for jazz

 

[TFT-A9]

Made beef vegetable barley soup. Almost more of a stew with how little broth there was left, but good winter fare.

 

[DeadwastePrime]

i mixed some canned spinach into some rice and added some chicken to it and put it in a pan and used hot sauce and cajun seasoning to flavor it. also added an egg to it and gave it a texture almost like risotto but not exactly like it. if it werent for the canned spinach, i'd give it a higher rating, but otherwise it was actually pretty good
just hoping those eggs were cooked enough for it. dont wanna get food poisoning

 

[Luminous47]

Bread with onions and tomato sauce on it... basically cheeseless pizza. The next day i made garlic butter sauce for the leftovers and it was 10x better.
