kevvy Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) Nam , the ingredients go in the bottom of the wok on top of foil.Turn your wok on and put on high heat , till you see everything is smoking .then put in a steamer tray and put protein on top .turn down to low heat . put lid on ..

kevvy Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I done so much cooking the last 7 days , everything from Australia beef steak to lobster and prawns , duck breasts ,scallops, it was so good . The best dish my step son love the most .....was shepherds pie!!!! I use a fatty minced steak , lamb fillets , and lean steak minced .I add Tabasco sauce , herbs , fresh cooked tomatoes , tomato paste . The potatoes are boiled then mashed with cream and butter . I spread the potato mixture on like canyons, so when I put the cheese on you get rivers of melted cheese . Cheers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight just had a simple salad, fresh cooked beetroot , prawns with olives, egg, chestnuts, tomatoes, rocket lettuce and a touch of balsamic vinegar .We eat a lot of fresh salad and veggies , not so much protein (only eat every day when the son is here) I feel great when I am cooking for my wife , and making new recipes all the time .

Won't find many of those on any health farm! Apparently all that is now good for you, even salt if you sweat loads. The Sheppard's Pie looked great although if beef not lamb it'd be cottage pie. I've been trying my hand at Indian food for a couple of weeks now after your Rogan Josh picture which looked lovely. Done three diffent dishes so far, not too bad, Rogan Josh is next. Inspired by Tutsi I've binned rice, potatoes, pasta in favour of lentils. I'm enjoying lentils, cooked in chicken or vegetable stock. Recipes are from Hari Ghotra and are excellent. I also include home made yoghurt from a recent thread. Edited May 29, 2019 by grollies 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My missus reckons you can get yellow lentils anywhere. The Thais use them for making Thai sweets (puddings)?

Popular Post CLW Posted May 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2019 This lentil stew my grandmother always made.sour lentil stew:ingredientsTo edit500 gr lentils, wash in a colander before use1 bunch of greens with parsley300 grams of potatoes250 gr bacon, diced4 meat ends / cooked sausages1 small onion2 tablespoons oilSalt, pepper, caraway, red wine vinegarpreparationFry bacon with oil in a large saucepan until crispy. Add finely chopped onion and fry until glassy. The greens, except the parsley, add finely divided and fry something. Add diced potatoes and lentils, pour in 1 liter of water, 1/2 teaspoon cumin give. Pierce the boiled sausages with a fork and add. Do not salt! Boil 45 minutes to 1 hour (in a pressure cooker only about 10 minutes) simmer in between stirring occasionally. Remove the cooked sausage from the pot and cut into bite-size pieces, then add again. Now season with salt, a little pepper and a good dash of vinegar for a short time. Can also be refined with red wine. Wash the parsley before serving, chop finely and sprinkle over the stew. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CLW Posted May 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2019 By the way, Big C for example has canned brown lentils from Italian brand. Saves you the hour-long cooking and can also be used to make some lentils salad quickly. Pressure cooker is good investment in case one likes to eat a lot of pulses.Works also great for the tough beef here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
