    Breakfast 2024

    Spinach, chorizo, and egg, topped with pickled shallots. Added chopped cilantro stems to the spinach. Blended chipotle in adobo, tomatillo salsa, ginger (!), cumin, and cream, and mixed in with fried onion and garlic, and Mexican oregano. Would have been prettier if I didn't drop the fried egg (in the pan, not on the floor). Whoops
  2. Best wishes for a speedy recovery and safe travels. I appreciate the updates, but also understand when posting to random strangers in the internet is not your top priority.
  3. Mrs. C's sourdough bread. Best one yet! Side note: Mrs. C does glass fusing, and the plate the loaf is sitting on was one of her recent projects.

    Breakfast 2024

    Sweet potato, baked and then sauteed in butter with onion, ginger, garlic, cayenne, cumin, and garam masala. I am often dissatisfied with savory sweet potatoes but this was quite satisfying. We had a pre-baked sweet potato because Mrs. C had air fried one last night, and it was still there this morning . . .

    Breakfast 2024

    Mushroom and chorizo tacos with white onion, garlic, and chipotle in adobo. Cumin, cinnamon, feta, and half-and-half to finish, topped with cilantro and chopped salad. Mushrooms were fried in leftover garlic oil. I might make something similar for dinner.

    Breakfast 2024

    Paneer cheese in chipotle sauce with roasted garlic, tomato, black pepper, and cloves. Topped with chile Poblano, onion, and cilantro in a Parmesan cream sauce. So kind of a Mexican-Indian-Italian mash-up.
  10. ^ We also ate at El Jacalito - what are the odds? I quite enjoyed the rellenos there, probably because of the flavorful chile. Agree that they used some sort of long green chile rather than a Poblano. They only chile relleno I recall making was stuffed with crab meat, no deep-frying. Freaking delicious, but surely not traditional? Perhaps from the small sub-subgenre of Maryland-Mex food.

  14. I also have eclectic musical tastes but reggae and dub seem to go well with cooking.

    Dinner 2024

    Keema for a young man and woman who emigrated from Pakistan. No pressure. Added baby potatoes, diced zucchini, and roasted chile Poblano that needed using up. Young woman made Basmati rice, diced the onions, and brought over matcha chocolate muffins.

    Lunch 2024

    Seared zucchini and yellow squash, sauteed with onion, ginger, garlic, and habanero chiles, simmered with coconut milk, turmeric, cumin, and garam masala, and then finished with fish sauce, cilantro, and lime juice. Lotsa flavor! Microwave rice to go with.
  23. The ones I had were baked (maybe broiled), not coated and deep-fried. Sloppy but delicious. 🙂
  24. I have also enjoyed excellent chile rellenos in New Mexico, but I am pretty sure they were made with New Mexico / Hatch chiles rather than Poblanos. Were the ones you had chile poblano or something else? I think my favorite was made with
