Awesome thread idea, OP! I'll be experimenting later - gonna try turkey jambalaya. I'll post pics in a couple of hours.

Here's Chicken Tikka I made last month. I also posted the recipe in GWS a month ago and not one single person has replied to it.



looks nice. checked out your recipe. i see you put the chicken in at the end, and so it cooks up in the sauce then?

i like to make big chicken & lentil stews in the style of "curry" and i always debate with myself how to incorporate the meat.

like should i get the chicken good and brown, then set it aside, build up the curry and then throw the chicken back in as the lentils cook?

or should I blast the chicken so it browns right away in the pan, turn the heat down a bit, incorporate my onion/garlic/ginger/spices in the chicken juices, then build up the sauce and simmer everything?

I do the former. Move the meat to a plate after browning, build up the curry/stew/whatever, then toss the meat back in along with the juices that accumulated on the plate while it was resting.

Thanks!!! Been waiting a month for someone to say something.

As for when to add the chicken? It really depends on the curry and how the chicken has been marinated. [EDIT] Sorry, I was in a hurry. If you've had the chicken marinating in yoghurt for a while and it's going into a thick curry or if the curry is thick and creamy, stew the chicken and don't fry it. If it's a curry that's in any way dry or depends on dried spices as a base then fry the chicken instead of stewing it. That's my opinion anyway, I'm no expert.

I'm starting to cook a vaguely jambalaya thing right now. Pics soon.

EDIT: Okay, dinner is over and what was originally planned as jambalaya is now a turkey and ham pilaf. I'm feeding two mid 60's boomers with high blood pressure so no chorizo.





I looked around the pantry and found basmati rice - so pilaf.

honestly if you're marinating chicken in yogurt for a tikka masala-type thing, your best bet by far is to broil it. get that nice char on the edges, closer to a tandoori chicken. really good. it's an extra step but it's fast, then you just chuck it into the sauce.

That looks dope. What is it and how do I make it?

Just a basic roast I guess. I found a petite sirloin roast on sale and decided to try this. Just cover it in salt/spices, put on a bed of chopped veggies, cook for a bit. I couldve cooked it a bit longer because some of the veggies like carrots and potatoes weren't done enough, but otherwise came out great and was extremely low effort

I'd love to see more cooking from an Irishman. Or anyone not from the US I guess. I have a big American Irish family. My mom's family had 9 kids and they all have hilariously stereotypical names. My mom has been there twice and she wants to take me next time. I'm sure it's not that different from here but I like seeing stuff about different countries. :3:

You are the Irish guy right? Am I just talking out of my rear end? Again?

Yeah, that's me. From the north.

Unfortunately I don't really do a lot of traditional Irish cooking because blaaaaaaaannnndddd. Also, not very photogenic. I do like to get exotic recipes and recreate them with what little variety of stuff there is here, though.

Oh, about sterotypical names? My parents were crazy. I could tell you the names of myself and my siblings but you'd think I was joking.

Now with less breakage.

Speaking of pilaf, I've made the Uzbek cousin, plov, a few times. Roughly speaking, you fry meat (e.g. lamb) and onion in oil or fat, then add rather a lot of diced carrot. Fry those for a bit, add a bit of water, cumin, salt, paprika, perhaps some barberry berries if you have. Boil that, then lay washed long-grained rice on top; don't mix them. Poke a hole in the rice layer to add more water: You want the water to stand just a little bit above the rice, one finger joint seems to be the traditional amount.
Cut the bottom off a whole head of garlic, and push it down into the rice.

Simmer for a while, adding more water if needed; you want rice that has absorbed a lot of broth, but with enough water boiled off towards the end that you're left with steamy rice over damp but not soupy meat and carrot. Discard the garlic, pile up rice on plates, add meat and carrots.

I'm sure there are all sorts of subtleties I'm missing out on here, but it's basically rice with meat and carrots, and there are limits to how bad that can go - unless you burn it, which is a real risk.

I'll take a picture next time.

I love tritip. I've never heard of it before but saw it as a really cheap cut in the Seattle area. I always bought it as steaks. They were like $3 each. I asked some butchers around here at home and no one knew what it was. I finally found them in premade vacuum sealed packages at Meijer. They're not great but get the job done sometimes.

I’ve been seeing tritip at my grocery store recently but I know nothing about it. Is it something you can slap some S&P on and throw on the grill, or is it more of a London broil type cut where it needs to be marinated ?

Either. Its pretty easy peasy. My family (Californians near Santa maria) do a marinade but I've had without. It's like the west coast cowboy cut. Iirc its basically just a renamed version of a more familiar cut, but I dont know it off the top of my head. I do know its cheapish and easy to bbq

I've had tri tip on the grill as a steak, and on the grill and oven as a roast. I'd say the grill is the best way to go. It takes a while in the oven but the grill is faster if I remember correctly.

My memories of the steaks were really great, which I'm not sure why because it's a pretty lean cut. I was used to having top sirloin all throughout my life. Then I discovered NY stips and ribeyes and now it's hard to have anything else.

They have new cuts out here that I've never heard of until a few years ago that I've only seen at Festival Foods. Spoon and charcoal. If I remember they make decent steaks. Actually I think the spoon is a roast. And they sell the charcoal cut as steaks.

More than half a bottle of Evan Williams. But I still plan on cooking something tonight instead of ordering something which I've been good at doing for weeks. For sure. Probably a (frozen) beef and broccoli package thing and heat up some cauliflower rice. We'll see how I'm feeling since its...... 9:28pm and I'm still not hungry. I want it done before midnight.

So this might not be the best place to ask, but I have kind of had an aversion to eggs my entire life. Like at this point I can rock eggs in phad thai, or in fried rice or something, but eggs as a breakfast or center piece of a meal I just can't handle. Is there a particular dish I should try and or cook to try to get over this? I feel like it is seriously limiting my enjoyment of breakfast and food in general.

I had leftover taco stuff to use up. iceberg, turkey taco meat, avocado, tomato, red onion, cheese, some crushed tortilla chips, hot sauce. "dressing" was just sour cream mixed with some taco seasoning. so it was pretty much just taco dip mixed together :hai:
