Fall is game season, I went through my older books and found a recipe: hare with banana, I had a hare loin and I had a banana, easy decision.  I made some potato dumplings to go with ans as one can not only make 3, I have some more in the freezer now :-( 

How did you like it?

[ninagluck]

@Anna N. fruit with game is quite common, I was surprised how much I liked it. I had banana with liver before but never with game, give it a try!

 As soon as I get the airfare together and can make it to your house.

Poor photograph but I bought some radishes tonight and they came with greens that were still vibrant. I quickly sautéed them in some garlic oil and topped them with some leftover rotisserie chicken. 

[ninagluck]

@Anna N you are more than welcome, I am sure we might have fun!

[Norm Matthews]

I gave the new oven a rest tonight. Dinner was a stuffed pork roast and potatoes in the steam oven.  It got done half an hour sooner than I expected.

How do you prepare liver and banana?  I love liver and like bananas so would like to give this a try.

[TicTac]

Perhaps it is just me, but the idea of bananas in a savory application, especially with meat, kind of scares me! (I love them au natural, but sadly I seem to have developed an allergy to them - throat swelling, etc etc -  oddly enough, in my early 30's)

 

Those potato dumplings on the other hand, look fantastic and would love to hear more!

Trying to use up leftover tenderloin from the other night.   Tonight it was with a Latin slant and exceeded expectations.  A darn good burrito, taco ??

Dinner out at Floyd’s in Webster with my husband.

 

 

I had the Crawfish Half and Half (Etouffee and Fried Tails) with Onion Rings. The dinner portions are much larger than the lunch portions, so lots of leftovers for me for tomorrow.

 

 

My husband had the Chicken Fried Chicken with Country Gravy and Potatoes Floyd. No leftovers for him!

Snow on the ground, and  I think it's here to stay. So, not running out the backdoor to the BBQ or Big Easy until I find the shovel!

Marinated chicken thighs in yogurt and curry powder. These were to be grilled on the BBQ, but I warmed the kitchen instead and roasted then broiled them.

                                                      

Fish guy came down from Lake Winnipeg with a load of Baby Sauger (Baby Pickerel) fillets. Lightly breaded with Panko crumbs, pan-fried.

Shrimp and grits.

[mgaretz]

Home from 10 days on the road and the associated weight gain prompted salmon, cooked SV, no sear but with maple bourbon sauce, served with mashed cauliflower with chives, and peas in butter cooked ALV.

 

 

Unfortunately back on the road tomorrow for another 10 days, but I'll be watching!

This past weekend was our library's annual food and wine event.  This year the theme was New Zealand and Australia.  All the dishes were delightful (such is not always the case) but the finest was shrimp and grits and pork belly.

 

Your shrimp look wonderful.  What is stuff in the middle of the plate?

Dinner last night was interesting in circumstance if not in product. We had a storm come through, they called it a 'SuperCell' but we were lucky enough to just suffer power loss and a few tree's down. 

I'd had a pork shoulder in the slow cooker, luckily the power failed just about the time I was due home, and thus the pork was done. 

 

I pulled it outside so I could see, up until the point I ran out of fatty bits for the dogs and the barn cat, guilt then drove me inside. 

Where I was very lucky not to skin myself considering my history making coleslaw in full light But you gotta have slaw with pork right! 

 

Managed dinner in the end, totally romantic . I'm sad because I had enough pork for 4 more meals (which was the plan) however the lack of power meant it all went to the mine to feed 'the boys' in the morning because I couldn't store it properly.

Not very much can beat fresh pickerel. I am insanely jealous.

@Anna N: Well, shoot! Come on down! After deliveries to family, friends, and neighbors, I still have 20 lbs in the freezer.

From the looks of the new upright freezer, I need to get on the "Freezer Challenge" again!

I love pickerel. In my younger days, I used to go fishing for them.

Thanks! The lighter colored stuff is cheese and the darker stuff is andouille sauteed with the cajun trinity.

 

I usually make it rain bacon on there too, but it was getting late.

@ElsieD, I had it served like veal liver Berlin style but the apples substituted by banana. potato roesti, fried liver, a slice of crispy speck, fried banana, gravy with onions. 

[ninagluck]

having a cold is perfect to use leftovers from the fridge: flatbread with radicchio, apple, speck and some stracciatellia di burrata
