Test #3-

Tttt, my TGF is kind of a picky eater. We both love fried chicken, though, and have given a lot of business to the elderly couple in our neighborhood who sell fresh-cut chicken parts, dredged in batter, and then fried-to-perfection in a ton of oil every day.

So, after the first 2 experiments, it came to mind to try roasting a few wings in the turbo oven, to see if I could end up with healthy, delicious & (hopefully) crispy wings. I have tried roasting/baking chicken wings quite a few times in the past, and the best were tasty, but never really crispy/excellent.

So… it was a very happy result today: 115 baht for the wings; rubbed them with a little olive oil, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, black pepper and coarse salt, and roasted them for app. 45 minutes. They came out really good- crispy outside (about 80% as crispy as fried), soft & moist inside, and tasty from the rub and caramelization. We both agreed that this is a very good way to eat chicken wings... and not feel guilty.

this is the content in the opening thread:

The main thing is to set up the place settings before you serve it. Wipe the Kobe steaks with a paper towel to make sure there is no moisture and sear them shut on hot with no oil or seasoning of any kind. It tastes very good and what I like about it is you don't need to do anything out of the ordinary, it is dead simple to cook. Dip it in a Japanese sesame steak sauce and enjoy.

I started this thread  in the western food section just to get more action. Any food is okay. The thread is about food porn, recipes and sharing ideas. It has recently become the most successful food thread in TV history. Any input is welcome. 

 

I think it should be made at home and if people are willing to share tips is the spirit of the thread. It was never meant to be a restaurant review thread. Please continue to share any food you make yourself foreign or otherwise. 

this sorta violates my dictum regarding available ingredients but I've found that dried beans can be bought in my local market and in the larger Lotus stores...the curry spices may be hard to find for those in Nakhon nowhere like myself...I brought back a load from saudi when I demobbed...

 

curried beans:

 

any kinda beans, red kidneys, black, white, etc, 1 - 2 cups

onion, garlic, ginger, fresh chiles

cumin, coriander, tumeric, chili powder, salt&pepper

fresh tomatoes

fresh coriander to garnish

 

wash, soak and cook the beans inna big pot, when finished drain into colander

rinse the pot and add oil, when hot add the chopped onion, garlic, chiles and ginger and saute

add the spices, I usually do cumin - coriander - tumeric 2 - 2 - 1, cook fer a bit, add a bit of water to keep it fluid

add the chopped tomatoes and swish around a bit, after a bit of cooking mash with a potato masher, simmer fer a bit

toss in the drained cooked beans and mix, add a cup of water or so, then simmer for a bit...salt and pepper to taste

serve with the fresh coriander/cilantro

 

easy as pie, good fer breakfast and to snack on during the day...I distilled this method from a bunch of recipes that I found on the internet...

 

now I gots to get started on the flat bread to have sumpin to eat with it...

Jerk Chicken

Follow the recipe and use chicken breast or some chicken without skin.
I made the mistake replacing it with drumsticks and half chicken.
Because of the thick marinade the skin doesn't get crispy what I really don't like.

Saure Kutteln is a Swabian specialty food, popular in the Swabian part of Baden-Württemberg as well as in the Province of Hohenzollern and Baden. It's often eaten with bread or with home fries. It was known as an extremely economical dish, since tripes were sold at a lower price than other meat. Nowadays it is rather seen as a culinary experience than a daily dish.

Saure Kutteln means sour tripes. The dish consists of washed and blanched rumen. The rumen gets chopped into slices and then gets cooked in roux for about an hour. Traditional spices are bay laurel, juniper and pepper. The sour taste is achieved by adding vinegar and/or wine.

beef and pork tongue is another delicacy.

this is what i am importing from Germany among other things. whole tongue wrapped in bacon.

dried-meats-roll.png

another delicacy i haven't eaten in a long time is crumb fried cow udder which used to be a poor man's dish. but now you pay a fancy price in top gourmet restaurants.

I stick with the beef tongue.
Sometimes maybe liver or heart.
Anything else, no, thank you 555
