Shitloads of spring rolls, for our kids birthday party (also cakes and other stuff not pictured). I think next year we will make something else for the guests.



Homemade springrolls own, I got some leftover in the freezer I should use. Photos when I do.

What filling do you use, standard pork, spices and Chinese veg or?

Made them all vegetarian this year to make it simpler of rus. So it was a mix of rice noodles, mushrooms (cat's ear), cabbage and carrots that was fried beforehand, spices were soy and fish sauce mainly.

Cool, I do most of that minus the rice noodles, and instead have bean shoots and pork. Also some allspice and sesame oil in the pork mince.

The weird thing is that I wasn't trying to do anything low carb, I just had a half cauliflower and no idea what to do with it (I normally hate the stuff)

Although that recipe looks loving awesome and I will be trying it

My goto for random cauliflower is to shake it with a good shot of curry powder and some oil, then oven roast it until it starts to get crispy around the edges.

A good, pungent garam masala with a drizzle of lemon juice or lemon infused oil brings this to new heights. I could just eat the drat stuff off the tray like a monster.

Yeah. Cauliflower (and all brassica, really) is Up There in vegetables.


Also, I literally cannot help but make chicken wings forever:



Clockwise from top left- Chinese pepper and salt; Lemon and herb; Smokey chipotle pepper barbeque; and plain.


And also apparently I also can't help but make arancini (forgive the kind of terrible photo, none of them came out great unfortunately and I didn't have everything in to do a proper plating



Sundried tomato, pepper, and chilli arancini.

Or cook it until it's just tender and then blend it into a soup with some leeks or idk ramps

obviously the best preparation is gobi 65 though. or gobi manchurian. but they're both a lot of work.

Here's your pro cauliflower move: https://thewoksoflife.com/dry-pot-cauliflower/

Cook the cauliflower more though, you want it browning/blackening a bit. Also idk what the hell bell pepper is doing in this recipe, don't do that. Otherwise it's a solid one.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

A local restaurant has chorizo-spiced cauliflower as an appetizer and it is fantastic because it is goddamn tasty and not all that filling. Pairs well with their fried calamari with pickled fresnos. I think I'll have to go back there soon. Yum.

As for something I cooked, I decided to make khachapuri for dinner last night, but I didn't have easy access to my tried-and-true recipe. I wound up using one from a website called "simply home cooked" and the dough turned out to be a bit slack. Even after adding an additional 0.5 cups of flour, it was still stretchy, so in moving the dough onto my pizza stone, they got the barnacle jim treatment and came out loooooooong - or wide, depending on your orientation in viewing them lol. For reference, they should kind of resemble a canoe from the top down, or a bisected American football. I picked them up and put them down on a pizza stone that had been sitting at 500 degrees Fahrenheit (260 c) so they clung right to it, and fixing them wasn't really an option.

Mine came out...kind of abstract. Tasty, but misshapen.



I've got the same amount of dough out of the fridge for tonight's dinner. My wife wants another khachapuri, while I'm going to enjoy a margharita, I think. Hopefully they end up looking better than this.

They're great, I love you didn't attempt to find a bigger plate.

I ran a couple of specials today at work so had to try them, naturally.

Pan fried mackeral (caught this morning by my brother), on toasted ciabatta with beetroot and chilli salsa. Cod loin with lemon and mint pea puree and chorizo.

drat, that's some good looking fish. Mackerel doesn't get the love it deserves, imo. How'd the mint play with the peas and cod? It's a combination I'd never considered and now I really want a bite of that.

Re: plating, I decided to stick with my standard 12-inch-or-so diameter dinner plate to give the looooooong finished product the perspective it deserved lol.

It's quite a common pairing with white fish/scallops etc. Personally I think it works really well, especially with the saltiness from the chorizo.

Two beautiful fish dishes right here. That mackerel, especially, I'd love to try; and the cod dish is just a pile of classic flavours.

Thanks, I toned it down a bit as I was testing it (cooked for my Dad who isn't big on heat) but it's definitely noticeable. I put about 1/5 of a small/medium chili to around 500ml of veloute.

It's not a can't issue. It's a want issue. They are still trying to figure out what they like. At the very least I got them to try the broth and I got some interesting face. Yet they will gladly eat pre packaged nissin ramen. As an example the youngest doesn't like jelly on his peanut butter sandwiches. The oldest eats baby carrots with ketchup. Anything I make is too spicy while they are knuckle deep in a bag of spicy Cheetos or takis. They both love broccoli though. Kids are weird.

They're so loving easy.

3 tablespoons white miso paste
3 cloves garlic, either minced or grated if you can find your microplane which I couldn't
2.5 tablespoons lime juice (which was what I got outta 1.5 limes, but next time I'm gunna drop down to 2 tablespoons)
A bit over 1 tablespoon honey

Whisk that together in a bowl, leave sit.

Blister a pound of green beans in a bit of neutral oil for 10 minutes, then once done, turn off the heat and pour the miso sauce straight into the pan, along with a pinch of red pepper flakes and some salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then cut up about a third of a cup of cilantro or however much you wind up grabbing when you go to tear "some" cilantro out of the bunch, and toss that through.

They're far too delicious for the amount of effort it takes.

I made a double batch of this for a dinner party tonight and I cannot thank you enough. I used Thai basil instead of cilantro since I had that on hand. So delicious.

Old timey scandinavian food, cabbage casserole.

Most recipes say to blanch the cabbage but I like to fry it instead.


Once it looks done I add some water though and let it go for a while yet. I pour of the liquid for use with the meat mixture. ground beef, bread crumbs, the liquid and two eggs. Spices are just salt, black pepper and white pepper.


Everything is mixed in the oven dish, also molasses are usually added




In the oven for about an hour at 175 C



Served with potatoes and lingon jam (raw).

I made this recipe completely wrong, didn't follow 50% of the directions or include 1/3 of the ingredients, did the whole thing in one pot, and even used half a ramen packet because I forgot to buy stock at the store. And it was still amazing. You should definitely try it, if you keep the meat down it is very cheap and easy to make.
