It's a warm day today so I'm doing a favorite..http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f15/k-ls-chicken-nachos-99320.html


What's cookin at your casa?

 

[Dawgluver]

I cooked a little sirloin tip roast, something I've not done before. Turned out pretty tasty.

 

[bethzaring]

We had leftovers; mashed potatoes, green chile chicken enchiladas and a red pork tamale each.

 

[Rocklobster]

Bruschetta, Sausage Carbonara..

Did it again, 'cept I used a nice piece of fabulous tender beef that I purchased on closeout at Kroger. Was darned near beef candy.


Dredged the beef in seasoned flour and browned on all sides. Browned some onions along with. Once all the beef was brown and the onions near caramelized, I added a healthy quantity of celery chunks, mini carrot chunks and a similar quantity of quartered Yukon Gold potatoes. Added some red wine and set to cook, uncovered, at 350F for about 2+ hours. Covered it and cooked for another, approximately, 1 hour.


Barely needed a knife to cut. The juices were sooo tasty with the sweetness of the onions and carrots.


Happily, there's enough to enjoy tomorrow. Great when things are so busy during this season.

I made a big pot of Sunday Ragu with meatballs and sausages. We had that over spaghetti. As I share the photo with you, I'm aware I over sauced my plate a bit.

That’s what bread is for, Andy!

Looks perfectly sauced to my liking Andy. "Over sauced" is just a matter of opinion.

Kumara chips? I’m not familiar with these. Please describe?

 

[Cooking Goddess]

Google said that kumara is a sweet potato, JJ. Although I bet sweet potatoes make better chips.

Took too long getting out to replenish provisions at Loverly's place, so I didn't have time to make chicken-barley stew as planned. Himself did a Chinese food run while I started prepping the stew ingredients for tomorrow (or Saturday). We shared moo goo gai pan, roasted pork fried rice, and shrimp egg fu yung. Himself and Loverly each had a spring roll, too. I had the almond cookies...:

 

[Rascal]

We have kumara or sweet potato in orange yellow and reddish. These are the reddish ones, processed by a company here. They are really nice. I believe they originated from South America, or Hawaii. I think you guys have an equivalent?

Sure! Here it is: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1016693-baked-greek-shrimp-with-tomatoes-and-feta

I used a can of diced tomatoes instead of fresh and crushed them with a potato masher. I also used Penzeys Sandwich Sprinkle instead of just salt (it's like an Italian seasoning with salt). We love this dish.

Thanks GG. Although I really enjoy Penzeys Sandwich Sprinkle for lots of things, I'll be using the Cavender's Greek seasoning that I use for my Greek Thighs.

I'm not a fan of Feta, and I find that Mexican Cotija is a perfect substitute.

Can wait to make this.

Thanks GG. Alas, my subscription to NYT Cooking has expired, and I’m not in a position to renew, currently.

I’ll figure out a workaround!
