Dinner 2017 (Part 5)

Recommended Posts

Neither of us has been eating much lately but today I decided to plan out a menu and try some new recipes.  The pork roast with a gastrique is from Tavern in the Village here in Kansas City (Prairie Village) The gastrique was made with wine, bourbon and cherries among other things. There was a potato galette and green beans finished in the oven. We both like our green beans overcooked.

@BonVivant  why can you not like, like a hundred times!   Your meals always looks amazing.  

 

No pics, I know, no pics or it didn't happen, but 5 oz fresh ground chuck burgers paired with sautéed fresh corn off the cob and oven fries.  Hit my buttons big time

 

I'd like twice if you'd left the kernels on the cob.

Wanted to try a new carrot salad, just grated and then seasoned with some good quality olive oil and shredded basil. Was craving for grilled lamb, so that was there as well :) served with some potatoes.

Kangaroo rogan josh, spiced okra, dal, spinach paneer, saffron rice, garlic naan. On the side - hot mango chutney and lime pickle. The kangaroo worked surprisingly well, after a long slow cook of nearly four hours it was meltingly tender.

@scubadoo97, thank you very much! I'm always learning. There's so much learning happens when we cook and through food. And even learn new things about myself. Slicing, photographing, drinking a beer and doing intense thinking (about other things) all at the same time!

 

@kayb, make the cure as you always do, just add as much scotch to it as you like (I pour a whole Rémy Martin glass). To drink my scotch I actually use a tiny sake cup!

@ElainaA and @Okanagancook I have been remiss in telling you both how MUCH I LOVE the recipe that you shared with me a couple of summers ago--the one that uses the whole cherry tomatoes and tons of garlic that you bake in the oven for a long time.  I've been out of my homemade sauce for a couple of months now.  I was digging through the freezer the other day and found a container of the cherry tomato sauce.  I was SO excited.  I've used it on pizza--which was delicious.  Biting into a whole cherry and getting that burst of flavor on the pizza is amazing.  Last night I was on my own for dinner.  It's very hot here and my air conditioner is broken so I wanted something easy.  I waiting until about 8:30 pm to start cooking so that the sun was off of the kitchen.  Anyway, I heated up the sauce and made a squash from the garden.  Heavenly.  I hope I have a glut of cherry 'maters this year so I can make some more of this stuff!

@Shelby @ElainaA and @Okanagancook  I absolutely agree about the sauce.  I made it with yellow cherry tomatoes, froze some, served it to the boyfriend farmer in March.  He loved it so much he planted 25 yellow cherry tomatoes this year.  We'll probably never run out of it now!

Can someone provide a link to the original post/recipe for the sauce? Thanks in advance...

 It doesn't take much to make a tasty meal.  Darn good thing. Groceries should arrive in the a.m.
