...after I added sour cream & hot sauce to it & now ready to sink my teeth into. This is one of our favourite meals. I have friends & friends of sons who tell me I can invite them over any time when I make tacos. Everyone seems to love my version.

 

I can easily eat 2 or 3 for a supper but at one time, when I was much younger & had a faster metabolism (& might have been nursing a baby too), I could go through 4 or 5 & still polish off a good sized home-made dessert too. Yet, I was very slim then at only 116 lb & 5'6" (53 kg &167 cm)!

This is a very simple dish but yummy-- grilled brinjal (also known as eggplant, aubergine) topped with sambal made up of dried prawns (haebee), chilli (fresh and dried), belacan, candlenut, shallots.

Way too hot to share with the boys. I felt like some spicy food before I head to the pottery class.

If you're going to wake me up at a ridiculous time then guess what - I'm going to make myself breakfast! An awesome breakfast! AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET ANY! foodforfel.com/2010/08/blueberry-pancakes-w-caramelized-b...

Blueberry pancakes.

Laura bought and harvested a rabit yesterday. Today, it was prepared. The recipe: "Sautéed Rabit", from page 479 of Ginette Mathiot's "I Know How to Cook" cookbook.

Curried cabbage, beetroot curry and beef smore. The beetroot curry especially brought back holiday memories.

Instead of the normal chili powder, added chipotle chili pepper instead. Spicy!

 

Also, this dish is supposedly 400 calories, but that dollop of sour cream probably puts it over a little.

I threw some sun dried tomatoes, pepper, garlic and thai basil together w/ some spaghetti. Kinda funny how something w/ many strong ingredients can end up being a little bland. =P

While there are many of us who love this dish, there are just as many that dislike them, I think. Most probably, people like these beans through acquired taste. As for me, I like them instantly when my mum brought home a small bottle cooked by her friend’s daughter.

 

Some people told me these beans are good for the kidneys as they help to cleanse them.

 

Home cooking is killing the restaurant industry. And it's tasty.

Made for Arlo's 2nd birthday party!

Samosas με λαχανικά

This was a really tasty pork chop. Serve with pear, rocket, walnut and cheese salad. Beautiful meal.

 

How to make it:

 

1. Chop up fresh rosemary finely/pop it in a blender. Add it to flour/breadcrumbs/pinch of salt, mix.

2. Wet the pork chops with milk, then coat it with the flour/breadcrumb mixture.

3. Fry till golden brown.

 

Really very simple, tasty meal.

Made from scratch, including the pie crust. Filling: chicken breast, peas, carrots, celery, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, onions.

From the set 'watch out I'm cooking'.

Sometimes all my creative skills flow together. I love taking pictures , and I love doing things in the kitchen.

 

I filled these dates with ricotta. The ricotta was mingled with sugar , rum or cocos liquor. Loads of things make this a perfect treat for the guests.

Chicken breast, braised kale, roasted red potatoes, fresh tomatoes (last off our vine).

Made these from a Gourmet recipe, but tweaked slightly. I didn't have enough cinnamon, so I experimented with a "Pumpkin Pie spice blend" I found on the spice rack, plus fiddled around with different amounts of the other spices. Because the spice blend had a little bit of ground ginger and ground mace in it, I think it actually turned out a little better.

 

They were in loaf pans before I turned them out on the rack to cool.

I cut deeply into both sides of the seabass and pushed the marinade into these slits.
