Well? What did you have for dinner tonight??

[MHunterB]

Tonight's shepherds' pie wasn't bad - the potatoes sliced on top were a bit dry, though. So next time I do it, I'll put the lid on the casserole when I bake it. The spinach I accidentally put in gave it an ominous look, but it tasted just fine....

 

[koshergrl]

Yeah...I learned the hard way not to put kale in stew.

 

[High_Gravity]

Left over meat loaf with mashed potatoes and red wine onion gravy, Puerto Rican rice tonight.

 

[Samson]

There's a bunch of 50% off Rice-a-Roni (beef flavored) for sale in the discount bin of the SAFEWAY. Bunch of 50% off sausage too.......



Sounds like a good night for Dirty Rice.

2 X boxes of Roni = $1.80
1 lb Sausage = $1.80

Cost of feed = $1.20/slave

DAY-YAM....

I would have been sold if you'd stopped at the jalepeno corn polenta.

Had some pretty damn good BBQ for dinner.

Samson: Next time, try about 1/3 cup of duck sauce (Chinese stuff, yes), garlic and ginger, mix with the egg, use a little soy sauce instead of salt. For a little excitement, you can dice up some water chestnuts - they give a nice crunchiness..... If you use onion, it's best to use fresh OR at least nuke it and pour off the water.

'Duck sauce' is the nastiest crap on earth. I never encountered anything remotely like that sticky ass-juice anywhere in China. Chinese food in the States is usually different than Chinese food in China, but that crap is a WMD.

 

[Unkotare]

Chicken cutlet, mashed photatoes, garden salad at my mom's house. From 1 to 10 I rate it a 5.

Lol...sometimes it's the company that's important, not the food.

Sometimes the company IS the food...but I digress...

Shepherd's Pie is DA BOMB!

"Sashimi wontons"?

 

[Gracie]

Oh wow. I started this thread a long time ago. At least..I think it was me. I forget. I'm older now. Be kind to the old woman, m'kay?

lol

Anywho...I had tacos for dinner.

 

[Unkotare]

Tonight was my world-famous, home-made, from-scratch gyoza. I hadn't made them in a while, but I still got the touch!

 

[Gracie]

What is gyoza?

 

[Unkotare]

A kind of dumpling.

Think of it as "harvard beet sauce" then...

My gramma made harvard beets to die for..I ate them like candy when I was a little kid, couldn't get enough.

Take a can of sliced beets, bring to a simmer, pour in a couple tbs of vinegar, a couple of tsps of sugar and a little water with cornstarch to thicken..

Like plum sauce, only better.

Fat = flavor

Fat = tender and juicy, too.
