My sister-in-law's father loves to cook. And he made this amazing, amazing cioppino over pasta, coupled with garlic bread. Food made for a king.

My chicken pepian dinner. One of those cases where the dish tastes way better than it looks.
(It's chicken breast covered in a "pepian" sauce made of pumpkin seeds, tomatillos, poblano, etc. The side dish is a brown rice and black bean pilaf).
This is a Mediterranea sea bass, a little garlic, olive oil and rosemary, s & p..grilled. Each fish weighs about 1 1/2 lbs and serves 1.

Had a go at making Chinese-style Chicken for my tea. A bit too much Oyster Sauce, but apart from that, superb! 😋
Served with Plain White Rice, Sesame Seeds and chopped Spring Onions
Fancy brown bag lunch.
I had most of the ingredients in the fridge and pantry already (Frozen shrimp is seriously the most awesome invention). Just bought the crab meat for extra oceany goodness. You can't see most of the Romaine because I ate a lot of it already. Mmm.. anchovy dressing.
Steph made such a phenomenal meal. The pork rib roast has perfect from the overnight brining and the crust was superb. Also, the "chennel" relish was such an interesting balance to the pork. I was stuffed and so happy.
Since Orit posted her hummus recipe and sweetie loves chickpeas, I decided to give it a try and cook up some Orit-hummus :o)
I didn't use chili peppers as I didn't have any at home but used chili powder instead and added some zaatar at the last moment as well. In the end, it turned out OK, although I'm no expert in the hummus department.
As prepping chickpeas is so time consuming I made a whole batch of it yesterday (no other option when you use 500g of dry peas to begin with - I wanted to use half but ripped the package completely when opening it up). Anyway, part of this picture ended up on Sweetie's plate yesterday evening and in today's bento, part went into the freezer as well as the remainder of the cooked but unseasoned chickpeas. We have enough chickpeas now for the next 12 months :o)
When I went to the grocery store, they had roasts on sale. We rarely buy them but I decided I was in the mood for some comfort food, so I grabbed one and took it home. I gave it a good rub with some pepper and other spices, tossed it in the oven, and roasted it till the thermometer said it was medium. When I pulled it out and saw Andrew slicing it as the steam was coming off, I knew it deserved a photograph. Take THAT Cooks Illustrated, betcha can't do that now can ya?
Usually I cook Thanksgiving dinner but this year, the mom decided to cook the turkey. Her bird blew mine out of the water - no contest. foodforfel.com/2009/11/thanksgiving-2009/

Local fresh salmon trout is the best trout I ever had. Just right before we were leaving I found out that I could buy whole fish even for less than filleted. I thought it was almost a sin to waste good parts of fish by filleting.

This image was part of a really fun engagement session that started at the couple's home in their kitchen. Later we ventured to their glorious backyard pool and a downtown marina for some sunset shots.
