The hopefully good concessions at Alliance Bank Park

For lunch a piece of baguette with prosciutto and olives. For dinner a fresh rainbow trout cooked on the grill. Yum.

Posted

For lunch I had wings, for dinner grilled catfish w/red beans & rice.

Explosive combination there.

For me, some refreshing lemon sorbet without the lemon.

My parents are away for 2 weeks, so my brother and I have to cook for ourselves. Unfortunately, my current skills extend no further than microwaving a few of mum's pre-cooked meals (mince etc), grilling anything in breadcrumbs, and boiling some frozen vegetable mix (I was absolutely useless at uni).

This evening it was battered haddock and some diced potatoes.

hamburgers on the grill last night.

My in-laws are taking us to a Hibachi restaurant to celebrate the wife's birthday tonight. That's smart. Going to a place like that with a 10 month old that likes to crawl on everything. I see good things for tonight.

Posted

Keep the baby away from the Habachi chef!!! Make sure you count all its fingers after the meal! ;)

Posted

Hehehe, actually, he loved it - as much as a 10 month old could love it. Lots of staring in awe. The food was descent, although my scallops were alittle over could.

mexican tonight, though exactly what, I will know when I order.

We're going to Paula Deens ya'll.

Last week I bought a couple of large beef tenderloins on sale at Giant Eagle. I've cut it up so tonight my wife and I will be having fillet mignon cooked on the outside grill with potatoes and peas. Yummy.

Celebrated my brother's birthday with dinner at Seven Seas. Such fantastic food. I had the best fish I had ever eaten tonight... and jellyfish salad!

Posted

Probably 4th of July leftovers. I did a pork loin yesterday, so I'm seeing pork fried rice in my future.

Posted

I cooked kielbasa on the grill last night. I dunno what I do wrong, but I always tend to burn the outsides of hte smaller pieces. Maybe I need to just keep a better eye on it and rotate more / move the smaller pieces towards the outside of the grill. Still yummy though. I love summer and the grilling opportunities it provides

Slap some meat and flip it around

:P

Interesting to see you take the effort to photograph your dinner. What kind of sandwich?

Posted
;) A quick snap with my webcam was all it took. It had a variety of deli meats that I just got from a Russian Deli. Polish ham, a couple slices of salami and something else I don't remember. A little cheese, mustard, and lettuce and wa-la: awesome sandwhich.

Egg salad sandwiches ...not store bought, my dad is whipping up egg salad sandwich stuff right now. The way how he fixes it is better than store bought.

Are those tortilla chips as well? You're quite the exhibitor, Koray. Have you tried combining sandwiches with B-B-Q chips?

Posted

Yup. I haven't tried putting BBQ chips in a sandwhich before. I have put tortilla strips in a burrito, which adds an awesome crunch.

Frech speakers will bleed with their eyes :folder:

One of the reason I love Taco Bell's Volcano Burrito and Cheesy Gordita Crunch so much

in other words mayonaise.

tonight it's fajitas. Grilled skirt steak that has been marinating in orange and pineapple juice, soy sauce, 6 cloves of garlic minced, brown sugar and some kitchen bouquet for the last 24 hours. Flour tortilla's, grilled onion and bell pepper, homemade pico de gallo, guacamole, shredded sharp cheddar and sour cream.

No. Not mayonnaise. the Dutch know about mayoniase.

This is Aioli. Spanish mayonnaise ;) (though I believe traditionally they don't always put in an egg)

If I ever do make it stateside, I hope to get an invitation at the Casa del Joeinar!

well I have a toaster oven and I have a regular oven, so I guess I do.

what kind of potatoes, white, red, purple, yellow?

it's easier to wrap them in foil with salt and butter, or oil, no need to use two oven as they will cook nicely at 437 degress F (225 degree's C.).

I would gladly feed anyone here, and if you left hungry it's because you didn't eat enough or didn't like the food.

Who has two ovens these days?

I have a normal oven, and the new microwave oven I got as a Christmas present is also a hot air oven. very handy.

what kind of potatoes, white, red, purple, yellow?

Red Mozart potatoes.

They are quite tough so you really do have to cook them in the oven for a long time, or boil them beforehand. but then you risk them going too soft.

Posted

since I would mash them with butter and sour cream I want them soft.

Posted

Good point. I have a microwave, too, as well as a brand new pressure cooker that can be used for various purposes.

I guess I was thinking only as far as a complete stove/range/oven thing.

Posted

I figured that Stef, but it is what I always do with potatoes.....

Wojo, do you use your pressure cooker much, mine sits in the cabinet like a copy of Munich.

Posted

Not yet. I only took it out of the box on Sunday, cleaned it out, and made pasta using a recipe from a cookbook. Which has now all been consumed.

Frozen ground beef, spaghetti sauce, dry rigatoni, water in lieu of beef stock (note to self), a scoop of shredded Parm, unmeasured quantities of salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic, and onion powder, and then two scoops of cottage cheese in lieu of Ricotta, for that lasagna-like effect.

Not bad. A little greasy because using I couldn't determine a way to drain the grease from the slab of ground beef before or after cooking. But in less than an hour cook time (to pressurize, cook, and then de-pressurize), I had dinner with minimal effort. Well worth it for someone who is just learning to cook and doesn't (i.e. can't) want to stand for long periods of time.

Posted

next time use fresh beef if possible but either way just cook the beef. cook it in water, it helps suspend the fat that cooks out, then drain, then add the other ingredients

Posted

I've had a lovely vegetable soup/stew and now my GF is making a strawberry shake. :)

Thanks for the advice, Joey. For my next meal I'm going to try something new.
