Recipe for the kofte please!!! Just got a grill, need to work it out!

I used this recipe but upped the amount of spices by about 1.5x, and also used fresh ginger rather than pre-ground. The tzatziki recipe on there also turned out really good, though I recommend using the small end of the grater rather than the large. Made pickled red onions to go with it as well based off this recipe, with some added coriander, paprika & cayenne.


Served it with some grilled tofu and a couscous salad. Was the poo poo.

Had a go at that Red Wine Chocolate Cake that gets raved about around these parts. Initially worried that it was proportionately a LOT of wine and would just taste of booze, but it really does all come together - nicely fudgy and delicious. Cheers to anyone who gave it props in the past :cheers:



Never been much of a pork-lover (ho ho), but decided to try something that looked interesting from a Xmas cookbook - pork escalopes (well, pork loin steaks really) with a creamy mash and wild mushrooms/shallots in a sherry/cream/juniper berry/garlic sauce.

The mushrooms were definitely the star of the show, but the pork seemed to come out okay (just seasoned and pan-fried in butter) but what do I know?! :ohdear:



Despite getting the rind kinda nice and crispy, I cut it off and didn't eat it because I'm still a big picky baby about pork fat - I have failed you, GWS. One day...one day.

I've never been a big pork eater in the past either, never had it growing up (except for the unidentifiable meat in cold cuts and sausages), never had pork chops, mince, roast or fillets as a kid, only got interested in it after I was 30 and was learning to cook properly for myself.
I've only cooked it a lot in the last 5 or so years. It's great in a milk marinated chop, or milk braise, or stir fry. Goes well with potatoes, cream, mash, garlic etc, and also goes well with Asian flavours obviously.

My kid didn't like the cottage pie I made for him, so I guess I have to eat a pretty bland (intentional) dinner.

I found some long forgotten sumac in my pantry due to a previous mention (sweet potato chips with sumac someone did), discovered a spice blend called za'atar, so made some with sumac, cumin, thyme, sesame seeds, opt oregano. Roasting the carrots right now with garlic. Previous mention of sunflower seeds led me on to find some long forgotten pack of them too.
It's pretty good I must say. roast carrots, garlic, some frozen green beans thawed out, sunflower seeds for crunch with za'atar type spices as a side should liven up a mild cottage pie pretty good.

E: tl:dr I'm boring, but mentions of sumac and sunflower seeds in different posts in this thread led me to make something with old pantry stuff and left overs/rejected meals from my kid.

Theres no need for forgiveness. Nothing like an ice cold watery beer while grilling! Looks like you picked some of that up from HEB, if I had to take a guess, because that spread looks a lot like the one me and my buddy did last week.

Hell loving yes, seconding the winecake. I hosed up surprisingly little for being an idiot at baking; the final product was nowhere near as photogenic as franco's (I way overwhipped the cream topping, thinking it wouldn't come together as quickly as it did) but, anyway, :gizz:

Back to photos of lasagne now, and I'm working from hone today so I rustled up this little number. My secret? Add seasoning AFTER cooking, and use sliced cheese for that rubbery anti-bedwetting layer on top.

We have a place called Central Market here in Washington, and the seafood/meat/produce dept is absolutely amazing. Best I have found outside the farmer market for freshness. I actually prefer them to Whole Foods quality wise.

I'll get my regular everyday stuff from Safeway...but meats/seafood/produce? I will drive that extra 3 miles to Central Market and happily give them the moneys.

I did a special meat thing for a change: baby's first (ever) roasted pork belly! Could have let the crackle crackle more I think but I also never had crackling before. Is it supposed to be puffed up all the way? Can I pull off the rind and crackle it some more or has that ship sailed? It wasn't very good but something is telling me it should have been the best part.

I still have a good 3-4 portions left, think I'll put some in ramen soup and turn what's left into bao filling for lunches next week :woop:


Marinated in five spice plus ketjap, ginger, sesame oil and other assorted good stuff. The sauce made out of the leftover marinade+drippings is killer.

Some recipes say to add a little rice or potato starch but any basic yeasty dough would be fine. Mine were made from leftover pita dough. V:shobon:V

Only advice I have is not to make the dough rounds too thin. On mine the bottoms stretched around the filling and I ended up with a very thick, bready top half and all the filling on the bottom.

Yes you can pull off the crackling. Personally I'm afraid of getting shards in between my teeth. Is the sushi bowl the crockery or is there actual fish in there?

To get good crackling i normally pour boiling water over the skin then pat it dry and salt it. Then blast it at a higher heat initially. I rarely cook pork belly however as I am poor; this method works on pork leg and pork shoulder.
