What Did you Cook this Weekend?

[DavidDetroit]

It's a generic category (stolen from HBT). Doesn't have to be cooked on the weekend. The purpose is just to showcase whatever you feel like showcasing. If there is already a similar thread, I'll revive it.
We make this rice and bean. It goes well as is or with tofu/chicken/steak and wrapped in a tortilla w/cheese.

Prime is our top grade. It's gotten expensive even at Costco which has warehouse prices. I only spring for this once or twice a year.

I shall be making a staff curry and a chana dhal later.

Might have left it a bit late mind.

Much better: halve them, put them on an oven tray and bake them in the oven until the outside gets brown.

For the full 7 days?

Have my parents over today so am cooking beef stew cooked in Shepherd Neame 1698, treacle, touch of ancho chillies, stock and pickled braised onions for me and my Dad. For my Partner and Mum I have cooked a mushroom and shallot stew.

Serving with dumplings, mash, and roast Chantenay carrots. Probably a bottle or two of Côtes du Rhône too

If it's convenient, maybe a photo?

I cooked Halibut on a bed of crushed olive oil potatoes, passion fruit sauce, and veggies. Unfortunately I didn’t take a picture but I did take a picture of my trial version which I made to check the flavours all work together (smaller and made with cheaper fish).

Meant to take one, but forgot after laying the table. Next time!

Reminds me of an appetizer the SIL makes, Rumaki. It's chicken livers and water chestnuts wrapped in bacon, marinated in soy sauce.

My two boys are back from uni today. Wood fired steak and chicken on the Kamado grill. Lime and chipotle rub on the chicken. One steak had a black cajan rub, the other just salt and pepper.

It's my wife's Birthday today. I cooked steak on the Weber Charcoal BBQ using lump wood charcoal. It was just delicious as always. Served with chips, fried onions and mushrooms with green beens. I didn't take any photos.

Food of geniuses!

From the archives (one month ago):

It was my first oven-cooked turkey. I always deep-fried them since that process is fool-proof.
This came out good enough to serve others. If it hadn't, I had a backup plan.

Deep fry a whole turkey? That sounds dangerous!
