Does anyone enjoy cooking here?
I am wondering if anyone enjoys to cook on here? I started to really make an effort a few years ago and would be keen to see what people like to cook. It is always nice to try something new.
I cooked this burger for lunch today.
Beef patty - add onion, salt, pepper, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, egg, bread crumbs, steak seasoning, cumin, chilli flakes and mexican chilli powder to your mix. Mix it all together. Then when I made the patty I put some Jarlsberg cheese in the middle, so once it is cooked it goes right through the patty.
Then on top of the patty I put cheese, egg, bacon glazed with Worcestershire, tomato, pickles, lettuce, mayo, dijonaise mustard and relish. It tasted real goooood!

The other day I cooked up some chicken skewers with couscous and pita bread with greek yoghurt dipping sauce.
Marinate the chicken in lemon juice, garlic, coriander and a bit of olive oil for a few hours. Then skewer them and char grill em.
The couscous, boil some chicken stock, add couscous and combine. Once fluffly add some cherry tomatos, chopped chives, mint and a little butter.
The dipping sauce is a tub of greek style yoghurt, lemon juice, mustard seeds, pink onion, garlic, mexican chilli powder, grated cucumber, celery salt and a bit of ground pepper.
Easy as and very tasty.

Do you use durum semolina in your pasta maker PD? I have always wanted to try making it myself but never found the time. I also sell the commodity for my clients although most of it is going down livestock's throats ATM.

Whilst browsing through Bunnings the other day I saw something similar to this in the BBQ section.
What you do is get a half-full can of beer and add some herbs to the beer according to your preference and put the beer can in the frame and then stick it up the chook's arse. I was pretty skeptical about it, but figured that the frame was only about $10 so what the hell... we could always dial a pizza if this was a dismal failure.
I usually don't go out of my way to raost chickens myself as they usually don't taste as good as the ones you pick up at Woolworths and I find that when I do them myself that they come out dry as buggery anyway. Not with this gadget though. This came out extraordinarily moist, although it must be said that the chicken itself didn't really take on the flavours of the herbs or beer (probably a good thing with the latter). Perhaps I didn't put enough herbs in to start with.
90 mins in the BBQ and it was a winner. And as a bonus, pretty much fat-free.

My adventures in Gastronomy:
I am presently exploring the cooking capabilities of an old stainless steel sunbeam electric fry pan. I used it to make popcorn for the State of Origin and that worked well. Last meal was a chicken green curry with coconut milk.

No. I'd get ingredients all over the keyboard.
Eating's very enjoyable though!

If you like fish this is one that always goes down a treat and it is simple to do.
Buy enough fresh Australian grown Atlantic Salmon for the number you are feeding, around 200/250g per head as a guide, depending on appetite. We prefer skin on because it crisps up a little, the skin is full of the good oil etc, but it is a personal preference. I find fillets better for this than cutlets.
The cooking is done in foil on an oven tray for about 25/30 minutes at about 180 deg C. The benefit is that the fish will not dry out, stays super moist and cooks in its own juices. But you need oil to stop it sticking to the foil or burning. Some Spray and Cook on the foil and then lay the fillet skin side down on the foil. You need enough foil to be able to enclose the fish for cooking.
To me here is the secret to this one, the seasoning!. I start by grinding fresh pepper and salt to taste over the fish. Then I thinly slice a lemon and lay the slices along the fillet. Then to provide oil and final seasoning I use some Italian and some French salad dressing dribbled over the fish, say a coupe of desert spoons of each, enough that the fish is sitting in a thin wash of dressing. The dressing provides all the oil you need plus a good mix of the right herbs and spices; garlic, parsley, oregano, capsicum, vinegar etc.
Into the oven for 25/30 mins. Then lift the foil onto a larger plate straight to the table for everyone to serve themselves straight out of the foil pocket. This helps to keep it hot and fresh.
Serve with fresh salad, crusty bread and some oven cooked frozen chips.
This is a favourite salad to accompany it;
Slice up Mangoes and Avocados into a large salad bowl. Add plenty of sliced Red (Spanish) Onions. Now dribbled over with the same Italian and French salad dressing you used for the fish dressing. This one can be prepared an hour or so earlier and refrigerated until ready to eat. People seem to like it better slightly chilled and a bit more marinated in the dressing.

The only one I know of involved throwing the Egg Plant in the bin and ordering a pizza.

Got a casserole recipe off Peter Russel Clark show yonks ago, all i remember is cut them up, put some salt on them, and leaving them on a drip tray overnight, takes the sourness out of them.
Worked pretty well for me, considering my best efforts previously was adding peas to instant noodles.

Ratatouille is a classic Egg Plant dish and not hard to make.
We recently bought the Jamie Oliver 30 minute Cookbook for our son, who is a very good Cook. Some great recipes. His Thai Red Curry recipe is superb!

Hate to cook, do too much of it !!
(although recently I have started to feel the love return, I must admit)
I do a nice Leek, Mushroom & Asparagus Rissotto with goats cheese (some chicken optional)...just ask Petethepilot !!! Good with a nice oaked chardonnay or a reisling, preferrably with a little age on them.
