Been enjoying all the great meals shared by you all!
Been doing the cooking here, but just not finding enough time to post after babysitting for a week, medical trips to the city, and perusing all the pages here!
My 2 granddaughters here are pretty picky eater. So I try to cook something they'd like that would also suit us:
Baked Ham and Scalloped taters. They don't eat a great deal of meat but loved the taters:
Meatballs and Pappardelle with Tomato Basil sauce. First time for the girls with the Pappardelle. The had fun with the long wide pasta and even ate a couple of meatballs each. We had to sing "On top of spaghetti" with the meal. LOL!
Battered pickerel and chips. They loved the batter and the chips. Thought they'd like the Mozz sticks - not interested.
Other meals with the girls were from Wendy's and sushi .
Then it was a medical trip to Wpg. This always brings home BBQ Duck, rice rolls. The quick meal after we got home from the 3 hour drive: Duck, Gai Lan, and rice rolls
The owner of the BBQ shop always gives me big packages of bones, the trotters, from his Crispy pork ( siu yook). The bones make for delicious soup, congee, etc
Chicken Paprikash with Pappardelle - with a bit of Hungarian HOT praprika for a bit of bite.
Had 3 bell peppers in the fridge, and I had made up a big batch of wonton filling. Combined the two and we had Stuffed peppers and Black Bean Garlic sauce.
Tonight, epic Corned Beef Failure:-( I lay the blame totally on the source of the meat. Superstore packaged, and it was full of gristle. I did per Ann_T's method of roasting. The flavour was pretty good, but it was really chew and spit. I'm not sure if even sous vide for 48 would have helped. I need to find a butcher! The vegetables and shipped taters were tender;-)
