mmm, those are delicious candied apricots in there. according to malika, who was making said candied apricots, you can cook a mean dal in there too.
Chicken in sun dried tomato sauce. Why does everything from the slow cooker look like vomit when you first put it in there?
A new recipe this time: the turkey-type seitan from Nonna's Italian Kitchen. The main differences from what I've made in the past are the dried mushroom powder in the broth, and the diluted Marmite in the seitan. Should be interesting.
Sorry for the crappy focus. The steam rising made it hard to get a sharp focus, and I was too impatient to wait for it to cool off.
Little brother and sister. They're adults (or near enough to think so in her case), but they'll always be my little siblings, the ones I'll protect and look after.
My brother finished college this summer, super proud. Both of them are incredible people in their own right and they're only getting better.
A solar cooker in rural Dari Noor.
From a visual and Google Image Search, I think this is from Solarstan.

I’ve been making beans since I was a kid. At 12, I would (of course) forget to set them early enough. 30 minutes before my parents were due home, I would throw them on the stove top at the highest possible heat and… burn them. I’ve gotten a little better at it since then and, 26 years later, I’d say I have it about down. Unlike its more commonly-cooked Tejano counterpart, the pinto bean, these require very little doctoring to make yummy. The pressure cooker helps prevent last-minute burning, too.
Frijoles Negros (Pressure Cooker Black Beans)
2 cups of dried black beans, picked over and thoroughly washed.
6 cups of water
a few sprigs of fresh epazote or 1 tsp dried
salt to taste
Place beans, water and epazote in pressure cooker.
Lock lid in place and bring to pressure over medium heat.
Lower heat to medium low once pressure cooker is fully pressurized and cook for 11 minutes (refer to your pressure cooker’s instruction manual for suggested cook times for beans for best results)
Allow pressure to drop using natural release method.
Open pressure cooker once pressure has dropped and salt to taste immediately.
Their simple preparation makes these beans really versatile and we have jars of them (and the broth) in the fridge at all times. We eat them whole with their yummy broth over a bowl of rice. They go on nachos. They get pureed with a little coriander and oil for a quick taco base. They make it into at least one meal on a daily basis.
Do you have a homemade kitchen staple that you keep on hand at all times?

The Hawkins pressure cooker has done complete justice to this wonderful potato curry dish. The potatoes have turned out soft and spicy, and the whole dish has a lip-smacking tang.
Well, I've learnt how to prepare this dish. Goes well with chapatis and various breads.
Even appliances in Japan have cartoon iconic design-- plus this cooker has "microcomputer & buzzer".
UNITED PRESSURE COOKER is the leading brand since 1954. From their beginning till now the United Group is known to be one of the top companies for contributing pressure cookers and other cookwares to the Indian kitchens.
Using a bedside locker left in the street and collected by our volunteers from Handsworth Helping Hands a few weeks ago - a toy cooker for my grandson I made out of a discarded bedside locker. Washers, handle, nuts and bolts, hinges and screws from a small ironmongers up Lozells Road; cookware from Poundland; cooker rings are used DVDs; controls sawn from a discarded broom handle.

Once the water is boiling I added the eggs. A dozen fits very nicely in one layer. I have done two dozen at a time before and it worked well. I "pre-warm" the eggs in some water while the water in the cooker came to a boil. The eggs were about room temperature.

This dingbat on my unmown, drought-ravaged, dandeliony lawn is a CooKit solar cooker. It's made of cardboard and aluminum foil. My workmanship was a bit sloppy but the cooker is able to heat water to 185°F, enough to pasteurize water and even sort of cook stuff. I've even made dinner with it a couple times, though not recently.
Solar cookers have been a real boon in places where people cook with wood fires and have burned all the wood, in refugee camps, and elsewhere. Building one like this is a fun little project and cooking with it is simple - the only drawbacks, apart from needing a consistently sunny day, are that it takes hours, like using a crockpot, and you have to keep an eye on it and turn it from time to time to face the sun. But it doesn't let food get hot enough to burn, so the attention you have to pay to it is minimal.

I'd like to build a nicer solar cooker and use it fairly often during these upcoming months of sunshine.
(Hm, this isn't really a practice I'm adopting for the week, as the Earth Day Challenge requires, but it's in the spirit of the thing.)
