Here's a pro tip on chicken pasta dishes I learned from my mom: before adding the sauce, add a large amount of chicken stock to the pan with the meat and veg, and cook the noodles in that instead of boiling them in water separately. The results are fantastic

oh yeah, chicken goop is as important as anything else in "chicken and thing" dishes

I made some crab cakes with whole wheat bread crumbs. Use lump crab meat, yogurt, and a lightly beaten egg as a base. Add chosen spices then add some crumbs and the. cover with crumbs. Cook for 12 minutes each side at 400F. Goes well with cocktail sauce.

I made Falafel for the first time(successfully). Who knew you couldn't use canned chickpeas?

 

[Satina]

Just now made some couscous with chicken, garlic, carrots, zucchini, marjoram and seasoning.

 

[Robert w'E'd Leef]

Made chicken salad with some leftover grocery store fried chicken. Shredded the chicken, skin, breading etc, added lemon juice, Japanese mayo, chopped green onion, diced garlic, and Heinz hot dog relish

West African Peanut Stew

 

[Cloaca Rimjob]

Made pork chops with a cider and cream sauce, I would make the sauce again purely to drink, it was that good.

I followed the Marco Pierre White youtube recipe with a few differences. Sauteed some onions in the pork fond and cut out the apple juice and used a semi sweet cider instead. Didnt use any brandy or calvados because if I have any spirits in the house then it's an instant bender.

Turned out really well , easy to make too

Momofuku rice cakes

fisherman eggs (mostly). Fried mushroom, bell pepper, red onion in bacon fat over medium low. Added generous amount of old bay seasoning. Cut up a leftover chicken sausage, added a can of sardines, cup of chopped spinach, crack two eggs on top, sprinkle with mozzarella. Finish in the oven at 350 for 15 minutes. Sriracha optional.

Corn potage. It's a lovely Japanese soup made from sweetcorn. Really good if you want something warm and homely. I replaced the cream in the recipe with almond milk to cut out a huge chunk of the calories that the meal usually has.

Things that don't look pretty but taste so good.

Marsala rib stew. Orange oily gold. Add more chilli to cut the grease. Reduce till ribs get brown tips.


Grilled ribs.
I used Chinese five spice and mixed spice into a cajun rub and loved the result. It had a sweet taste without a lot of sugar which I appreciated due to heavy cinnamon and star anise from the mixed spice. Wish I coukd have bbq but britbong weather was not compliant. So grilled it was.

For dinner Chinese stir fry. Beef, shrimp, onion, bell pepper, mushroom, cabbage. Simple stir fry sauce, with rice. Yes it's basmati I'm out of jasmine.

I made some incredible short ribs on the smoker a few weeks ago. Slow-cooked, fall-off-the-bone, fatty goodness. One issue with short ribs is that they're really fucking fatty, which can be a good thing, but they're so rich that they can be difficult to eat and don't make good leftovers unless you're desperate. I love slow cooked food in general, the whole process of smoking something over the course of several hours is the type of thing that I can't help but gloat and posture about, especially considering how fucking GOOD the end result is.

 

[Goyslop Muncher]

Pork fried rice with vegetables and Lee Kum Kee brand black pepper sauce. It's pretty good.

bootleg oyakodon (leftover surprise remix)
one and a half fried chicken breasts stripped off the bone, including breading (also some of a wing)
five eggs that aren't bad yet but there's another dozen to get through after this
a bunch of dehydrated onions
red pepper flakes
gyoza sauce
some leftover Kraft Mac And Cheez
some cheddar shreds
some other random shit
cooked in a pan on the range

not bad, even actually tastes sorta like normal oyakodon I've had

Hey, that thin, curly noodle looking stuff:

Is that just thinly sliced cabbage?

 

[XANA]

Misunderstood directions and cooked + basted the steak for three minutes longer than I should have and ended up with medium-well instead of rare, RIP.

It still tasted good tho.

I really like edibles. I really don't like dispensary prices for edibles. The solution? Learn how to do it myself.

After some Google Machine use, this was the method I used:

1 oz of shake that had been sitting in a jar that I was never going to smoke.
1 pound of butter.
1/2 a cup of water.

I let this sit in a Crock Pot on the low setting for three hours. I then strained the greasy mess through a cheesecloth into a jar, chilled and then separated the remaining water from the butter.


The next frontier in cooking is baking which I have always been a bit intimidated by, but now I have an incentive to conquer my fears.

tonight I made meatballs with macaroni in a truffle cream sauce, then I have fresh panna cota setting in the refrigerator to go with some farm fresh strawberry's I bought.
right now having an after meal glass of Cinzano sweet vermouth.

sorry, no pictures.

Is that just thinly sliced cabbage?

Yes, it's 1/4 head of thinly sliced green cabbage. I add it at the very end and turn off the heat. Toss for another minute. Keeps the cabbage crunchy.
