    Obscene Sandwich

    Not sandwiches in the traditional sense, I suppose, but delicious nonetheless... Chicago Dog Breakfast sandwich with fried egg, smoked pork and cheese
  2. Welcome to eGullet Deb! Hope you are enjoying your summer. The cold weather in the Northern hemisphere makes me yearn for some ripe tomatoes. Inspired by Dejah's sandwich below, I attempted to make one with what I had in my fridge: Toasted Whole Wheat English Muffin, Fried Egg, Smoked Pork Shoulder, Cheese.
  3. Xilimmns, I love sous vide eggs and the texture of those eggs looks amazing. Are those chives or thyme on the scrambled eggs? Dejah, that sandwich is so mouthwatering, it is making me crave breakfast - and I just finishes dinner. A few more breakfasts involving homemade corned beef

    Dinner! 2012

    Great meals all! Could have used a braised beef dish on this cold windy day. A few nights ago... Goat Cheese Tortellini w/Chicken Marsala Was at the Metropolitan Museum in NYC last week so had to stop at Papaya King and Shake Shack

    Dinner! 2012

    Looks delicious Kate! In my experience, sous vide ribs have a different texture than traditional braised ribs and don't have that fall-off-the-bone-stick-to-your-ribs tenderness.
  6. Thanks, percyn. What spices do you use in your Indian version? I think I would like that. Sometimes, I have the egg with pico de gallo. Usually tumeric, cumin, garlic, ginger and some onion. Some add cilantro leaves and ground coriander seeds as well. Trying to use up Smoked spiral ham from Christmas.

    That is a thing of beauty! Franci, I have purchased slices of pata negra bellota in the US. Not sure if it is exactly the same as what you get in Europe, but tasted pretty close.

    Dinner! 2011

    Nice meals all! mm84321, that is some amazing looking dishes - are you practicing for the Bocuse d'Or? On the other end of the spectrum, I picked up some handmade pasta from our local Wholefoods. Ricotta Stuffed Rigatoni w/Braised Shortribs Also got some great looking organic boneless shortribs, which I made a version of Korean BBQ with the following day.
  9. Menu sounds good. If the chicken skin is marinated in the tandoori spices with yogurt, I am afraid it may not yield a crispy skin. If you want a crispy skin, might I suggest a slight modification to prepare chicken Chargha (http://www.desitwist.com/desi-recipes/chicken-chargha-19334.html) which has similar spices, but is pan fried for a crispy outside crust and succulent inside. Perhaps the legs can be prepare in this fashion while the rest of the chick can be made the way you described. Just a thought.
  10. Very nice robirdstx. Reminds me of an Indian version of eggs with tomatoes, onion and spices.

    Deja, the beef rendang with soft scrambled eggs was my breakfast as well Norm, nice Ruben. Bruce, nice Kheema - did the recipe call for coconut milk or was it an adaptation? Bought Nasi Lemak from the same place I got the beef rendang.
  12. Thanks Bruce. Here is some more Cornbeef hash and Crispy Pork Crackling with Egg

    Auntie Dejah, snap! I had beef rendang too tonight, ox cheek - my favourite cut for making rendang... Must have been a Beef Rendang kind of night around the globe as that was my dinner as well, albeit I did not cook it myself. Terrific posts of incredible meals all....keep it up so that I can keep drooling.

    Dinner! 2011

    Great dinners all! Welcome to the thread minas6907. mm84321, beautiful food, more details on the marrow crust please. Also, please tell me you are a professional chef so that I don't feel inferior While I did not make this at home, it was part of my dinner at Per Se a few nights ago (immediately following a 4 course dinner at Jean Georges). White Truffle Risotto Truffles shaved from this humidor

    Per Se

    Found myself in NYC with a friend on short notice. Since we could not get dinner reservations on 1 day's notice, we went to Jean George. However, I was happy to learn that Per Se offered portions of its truffle menu in the Salon. So after a 4 course dinner at Jean George, we walked over to Per Se for our truffle fix. Wonderful bread basket Wish my humidor was packed with white truffles like those White Truffle Risotto Food was great, wine list is now on an iPad and service is friendly and knowledgeable as always. I still love Per Se but understand when people say they may not want to rush over there every year (even though I still find myself doing so).
  17. Don't know what happened Bruce, it was meant to encourage people to post! BTW, I love the brinjal pickle too. Homemade Corned Beef Hash & Fried Egg Basted Egg w/Corned Beef Hash Scrambled Eggs w/Thyme

    Dinner! 2011

    Awesome meals all. Prawncracker, those pics made me hungry....and I just ate!
  19. Spent the week in Las Vegas and although I did not cook these, I had great breakfasts at Thomas Keller's Bouchon. Quiche Florentine Steak Gratin - the whole eggs in the gratin were perfectly cooked with a soft yolk. Banana Walnut Muffin Yogurt Parfait Corned Beef Hash with Poached Eggs Pomme Frites Boudin Blanc and Scrambled Eggs - Eggs were just a touch too tight for my taste Chicken & Waffles - Keller's famous dish with savory chive waffles and the most succulent roast chicken I have ever had. Of course there were numerous stops at the Bouchon bakery throughout the stay for some goodies such as: Almond Croissant Macaroons
  20. Nikki, Thanks for an interesting week and for elevating the priority on my visit to Singapore.
  21. Leftover Bibimbap and fried egg Andouille Sausage and fried egg
  22. Agree with Jenni. I think cocolcasia is a type of Taro leaf. Great blog Nikki and sad that it will end soon
  23. Prawn, can you please share how you prepared the lobster? Is there a recipe?
  24. Nikki, Glad you were interested in trying the "vada". Actually, there are different types of vadas or fritters. The one you have pictured is a South Indian called a Mendu Vada, which is made from rice and Urad dal. The Vada shown here is a spicy potato fritter popular in Mumbai and the state of Maharashtra. Both are good but very different flavors and textures. Enjoying your blog and looking forward to the chili crab post to bring back memories.
  25. I second that - go all out Nikki !! If I didn't already have a food trip planned for Vegas, I would offer to fly to Singapore to help lend an extra stomach
