Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Supper -- what are you cooking? - Page 10  

Sounds yummy, DevilNuts.

It's pretty warm here today and quite humid, so I don't feel like grilling outdoors. Tonight we'll have roast chicken with lemon made in the convection/microwave with green beans amandine and iced berry tea.

This morning I had black beans and rice simmered with some chipotles and home made adobo sauce ... nice and spicy and quite filling.

Indonesian Cooking

I agree with you. I have made lots of cooking, whether it is International, local or fushion cooking. I have made lots of recipes with the photos I've taken during the experiments. I'd love to share with you all, but I don't know how. Please advise.

I want to share the satay for dinner first, after I got the info of how to put the recipes & photos here.

Many thanks.

Last night, hot and rainy so in between downpours I grilled some b/l chix breasts with Mango & Black pepper salsa with buttered Basmati rice and peas and corn.
Tasty too....

chrose, that sounds awesome!

Tonight I'm going to throw together a chicken/roma/parmesan pasta sauce over linguine noodles. I haven't completey formulated the dish in my head yet and probably wont' until I actually start cooking it. I only have about a pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts to feed all 4 of us so it's gonna be a stretcher meal. I was planning grilled tenderloin but Les, bless his heart, put it in the freezer! GRR!!

I like a couple of the Trader Joe's sauces. Lunch today will be sone chicken breast simmered in TJ's Korma sauce over brown basmatti rice and a few veggies alongside on the plate.

I usually make up a big batch of rice and freeze it in a couple of zip loc bags laid flat in the freezer, and just break off a chunk when needed. I often punch up the sauces with some spices, chile peppers, maybe add some garlic or onion. If I've planned ahead, there will be some chicken in the fridge that's diced and perhaps partially cooked. The whole meal can come together in less than ten minutes. Good Everyday Eats.

I am quite lazy today so i think i will make spaghetti carbonara for my dinner.. and eat tiramisu after that, which i made two days ago..

wah shell.. you look pretty good with decorating your meal.. and dilligent enough..
if it is not to be served to guests i wont decorate for myself :p too lazy huh? haha...

Today I cooked for juniors. Made Glazed Duck Legs (Chinese Rib & Espresso Glaze), Veal Stroganoff w/Junipers & Capers, buttered Soba w/porcini powder and Seafood sausage in sherry aspic.

Then kicked back...:beer:

last night i made stuffed chicken - stuffed with prosciutto, Montery jack and coated with egg/italian bredcrumbs..

homemade spinach angel hair pasta and home made wheat pasta

I made a alfredo sauce from scratch and a bean/zucchini/cream sauce as well.

everything was amazing, and my mother inlaw came over and one of her friends came over as well and everyone enjoyed it.

Lol, all I had was microwaved chicken taquitos and a roast beef sandwich. :lol: We haven't been able to go to the grocery store lately becuase our car was infested with ants. Literally, infested. The car's clean now, thankfully. For some reason, the summer heat is making me lazy. I think I'm just going to do a basic, fuss-free, roasted tenderloin, with maybe some Yukon gold mashed potatoes on the side for tomorrow's dinner. Nothing special. I'll probably just do a really simple brine for the pork - water, honey, salt, bay leaves, grated onion, and slightly crushed black peppercorns as well as a hint of fresh garlic. (A hint of fresh garlic in my opinion is around 4-5 cloves) Brine the pork tenderloin for a few hours, and just place it in the oven while I mash up a few potatoes with sour cream, garlic, butter, cream, and a dash of salt and pepper. Nothing fancy, but it's sure delicious... :lips:

Another Simple Dinner

Sauteed some broccoli crowns and cauliflower florets in a local EVOO (Bariani) and unsalted Irish butter with a chopped clove of garlic. I let the butter brown a bit, and let the veggies caramelize a little. Added some chopped green onions, a little smoked sea salt and a little bit of cracked Balinese long peppers ... turned out to be very flavorful as well as quick and easy.

Oatmeal for Breakfast

This morning I had a variation on this oatmeal breakfats: Vanilla Spice Oatmeal

I just had KFC tonight :lol::chef:
Resepi RR Recipe : For those who loves cooking...

Tonite, its a simple smoked meat( I just picked up the meat from the deli ), chicken noodle soup & a kosher pickle:lips:

Tonight is clean out the fridge night. I'm making a pasta sauce with loads of garlic, sliced mushrooms, green onions, kalamata olives, nubbins of parmesan and other cheeses, the last of a roasted chicken, and pesto.
Salad-whatever is in the crisper-the last of a loaf of wheat bread topped with garlic butter and parmesan. I really hate to use up that great cheese. It's the first time I've had the real thing-not American.
Gee whiz, now I'm getting hungry and I'm still at work.

stereotypical scots breakfast

Had folk staying over last night and some were English so we had to put on the full Scottish :- Angus steak sausages Slooowly fried while i have my own wake up tea and cigarette breakfast. ps. everyone is still asleep and i'ts 9.45 am.
Two Sudokus later ( I'm up to Krazy dad's tough. Woo Hoo!)
I'm outside at the patio table shivering 'cos it's the middle of summer and the weather is typically Scottish ie. BALTIC! And we have a no smoking policy indoors. (my idea??)
Anyway it's time to put the oven on economy, put the sausages to bed and stick the smoked back bacon on to grill,( that'll get 'em out of bed) fry off the Dingwall black pudding and haggis slices, grill the tomatoes. square sausage is next, under the grill. It's the mankyest fatty, grissly sausage meat i know but for some reason we still eat it.
Potato scones and bread for toast are stacked by the toaster. The organic, free range eggs are sitting by the pan for cooking to order.ie. fried.
So an artery clogging breaakfast was enjoyed by all - no wonder we have such a phenomenal rate of heart disease.... Everything in small doses eh!

For my job this week:
Banana Bread
Brownies
Creme Fraiche
& testing puff pastry turnovers stuffed with guava paste/cream cheese, and quince/cream cheese

Saturday night I'm cooking dinner for friends;

Chicken breast stuffed with spinach, ricotta and sun-dried tomatoes and wrapped in Proscuttio
Roasted potaoes with a sprinkle of breadcrumbs and cheese
Beans tossed in garlic
Broccoli in ginger and soy sauce with sesame seeds
Whole cauliflower cooked in tomato base sauce with olives and garlic

For dessert a Banana Caramel Sundae

If anyone's interested in any of the recipes just send me a message and I'll be happy to reply.

Weekend

My son and his fiancee join us for dinner every Sunday. This week I will be making Chipotle Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Strawberry Avocado Salsa.

Last night my sister was visiting so I made Bouilliabase, but a bit off of tradition. First I only used Shrimp, scallops and littleneck clams in the shell.
I sweated a large half bulb of sliced fennel with a little garlic, carrot and onion.
To that I added salt, some thyme, rosemary and orange peel (fresh) After sufficient sweating I added a quart of V8 juice, Clam juice and a little water. Brought that to a boil and simmered for about 15 minutes. Then I pulled out 2 of the 3 pieces of orange zeste and pureed everything else with an immersion blender. The seafood was then cooked as I brought the soups temp. back up.

The addition of pureeing the orange zeste as opposed to just getting a hint of orange from the oils really made a refreshing difference.

Yum

Sounds delicious! I love feta and spinach

Simple meal tonight, BLT's. Wellshire Farms Hickory smoked bacon, romaine lettuce and some locally grown Hanover County, VA tomatoes. Oh yeah can't forget the Hellmans.:lips: All on some nicely toasted honey wheatberry bread. Plus a side a tater chips. This weekend we're going to an "End of Summer" block party. Haven't decided if I'm gonna break out a couple slabs of Spareribs I did up last month and use up my last quart of AppleJack BBQ or homemade Italian sausage sandwhiches. Could always do both. :rolleyes: Plus if I use the last of the BBQ it gives me an excuse to make more. How's that sound Ole DMT?;):D

OMG!!!! I want a BLT sooo badd!!!!!mmmmmmmm!
Oh, can I come to your party?!ha-ha!
OLD SCHOOL RULES!!!!!!!!
canadiangirl

There's only 1 way to make a BLT better, and that's to double the size and make it a BLT Sub!:bounce::lips:

Blt

And add a slice of avocado! We call that at BLAT :lips:

Da moe, da bettah!

Last night was a simple Bavarian dinner. Brats simmered in sauerkraut with bacon and onions, potato dumplings and applesauce.

Tonight we're laying around like a lion pride after a feast, Made Swiss Steak, mashed red potatoes, chedder cheese smothered broccolie and apple pie and ice cream. All I want to do right now is sleep...I'm so full and happy

Another comfort food meal at our house: homemade chicken pot pie. The chicken was leftover from a roasted chicken I made earlier in the week. I sauteed leeks, a clove of garlic, celery, carrot; added some chopped parsley and thyme; sprinkled it with a couple of tablespoons of flour, let that mellow a bit, then added a cup of chicken broth and a cup of milk. After that thickened up a bit I added some par-cooked potato cubes, and some frozen green beans and broccoli.

I went to the fridge for the store-bought pie crust I thought was there, but wound up making the pastry myself. Poured the filling in an oval baker, topped with crust, brushed it with egg wash and 35 minutes later we had a nice dinner. :lips:
