Delicious
what about sharing our delicious receipts?
My favorite one is fried tomatoes with eggs. We call it "pomidor chigirtmasi" in english it sounds like screamed tomatoes.
Take 1 kg. tomatoes, 3 onions:clean their covers and cut them. Then take a pan, add some oil, first fry onions, then add cut tomatoes into it. Let him frying for 15-20,stir it, but noy very often.The pan must be covered first 15 minutes, then let him stay without cover for 5 minutes. At the end add two eggs.
I like this meal even more than kebab.

Good idea for a thread! :) What goes better than good food and good books? :D (I say "good" because there is a greasy-spoon restaurant nearby that also has shelves of used books for sale. It's called "Food & Books" -- surprise! -- and Stephen King likes to stop there when he comes down this way. But GAWD is it nasty. :sick: )
Last Fall I copied a recipe off of TV for broiled/grilled eggplant. It's really good. Cut a large eggplant into 8 slices, 1 cm thick. Purge them with salt (sprinkle salt on both sides to take away the bitterness -- Kosher salt works best), let them sit for a few minutes then pat them dry with a towel. In a bowl mix 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 cup steak sauce, 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar. Brush it on one side of the eggplants and grill or broil them for about 2 minutes, till they're browned. Turn them over, brush the other side, and cook for another couple of minutes. Grate parmesan cheese on top of them and put them back in for about 1 minute to brown the cheese, then take them out and sprinkle herbs on top.
They're especially good if you're trying to think of something to take the place of meat in a vegetarian meal.

I am addicted to these spinach things:
1 package of spinach, 1 cup bread crumbs, 1 egg, 1 clove of garlic, pinch of salt, pinch of pepper, 1/3 cup of grated parmesan cheese, 1 sliced tomato. Mix all the ingredients except tomato. Lay tomato slices flat on a cookie sheet. Make several rounded balls of the spinach mixture and place on top of each the tomato slices. Bake at 400 until golden brown. I don't usually use the tomatos instead I dip my delectible spinach orbs into marinera or some other tomato sauce.

Wauuu, I will have to find some for you guys. I cooked last night for the first time, but it was like: 1 package of frozen vegetables, 3 carrots - thrown into 1,5l water, boiled with 3 vegetable bouillons. plus I prepared noodles and here you go, DINNER READY :D am I not a clever lady? hihi
-
Oh my god, I had to correct my receipt. I've noticed that I wrote potatoes instead of tomatoes. Sorry!

I'm not a good cook... I don't even have much passion for it, so I hardly ever try to improve my skills...
But today - for the first time in ages - I made a cake! :banana:
It's a cake made of coconut flour mixed with biscuits (well, made them in powder ;)) (plus butter, milk and a tiny bit of coffee just to unite) and covered in chocolate :) Yummy!!!
(cos tonight I'm at dinner at a friend's who will prepare some regional bread-thing I don't know much about.)
mmm fooood...
-
that sounds scrumptious!, koa. :)
does anyone here save recipes in their "favorites" folder? i have Tons. :D
-
hi amuse - do you mean bookmark? I do not, but this is caused because I do not have internet at home and I consider is rather brave to have it bookmarked at work... but this forum is bookmarked at work :D of course....
hey ravana, food is delicious.. I cooked it yesterday. took me some time, little longer than my soup hihi but it was great. and I ate just half of my part and I was so full... aaaaaaah, lying on the bed as an realllyyyyyy big elephant hihi even my boyfriend told me I was the "cook of the year" hihi wauuu thanks... I will search for receipt for you, but I forgot it at previous home, will go there tomorrow and send you some soon
yummy... thanks..
-
I don't have my recipes bookmarked either, mostly because I do all my searchs at work but also because I'm a paper girl where recipes are concerned. I have a book crammed with recipes I have tried or intend to make. I looove having pages of recipes all stained and tattered......
-
evulik, that's exactly what i mean. :)
that's so cool, papayahed; btw, do you have old family recipes? there are a few we have: egg nog, fruitcake (of course) my aunt has pound cake, 7-up cake, sweet potato pie...i remember writing recipes on index cards when i was little - german chocolate cake anyone?
-
when i was very young, my great aunt taught me to make these things (which have no name) and i have treasured and hoarded the recipe for years. however, because i love you all so much i will share.....if you have fresh beets in the garden, you can snitch some greens from each and the beet will not be harmed.
make homemade bread dough to the last stage. punch down one final time and separate into baseball sized lumps. roll out into long breadstick shapes. take washed beet greens and wrap around the bread dough, leaving a half inch on either end clear of greens. turn the dough sticks so that the ends of the greens are underneath on a baking sheet, and brush with melted butter. bake as you would bake bread sticks (about 350 degrees C about fifteen mins or so, or until the ends are golden brown and leaves are crisping)
let cool just slightly then pile on a plate next to sour cream mixed with tons of fresh dill weed and watch them disappear. this is one of my sons all time favorites, and everytime i have made it for a party, they are the first things completely consumed.

My mom doesn't cook so all the old family recipes reside with my Uncle. I've been meaning to get those from him but haven't yet. I do have one recipe from my grandma, I'm not really sure how to spell it but it's a "nuisse torte"? Its funny my grandma always used to call it noosen tootin' cake so everytime I did a search nothing would come up.......
i am looking for a good recipe for stuffed cabbage though ("golbki" in polish, I think)?
-
cabbage rolls, i think they are called in my world. the cabbage leaves are rolled around globs of ground beef mixed with rice and seasonings, and then topped with a sweet tomato sauce? my mom used to make them all the time. i bastardized her recipe though and make "lazy woman's cabbage rolls" where you just shred the cabbage and layer it with the filling, kind of like lasagna and top it with the sauce. the taste remains the same, but takes waaaaaay less time to prepare.
i remember once i had a roommate who begged me for months to make cabbage rolls for him (he had tasted them once at a potluck). finally one day i decided to do it, and i spent all day parboiling cabbage to peel off one leaf at a time, stuffing and baking them, and he walked in the door after work and said (and i quote) "it smells like farts in here"
he ate cabbage rolls alone that night!
-
Yep VBM, those are what I'm talking about. My cousin makes the "Lazy Mans Cabbage Rolls" but his Tomato sauce is more like spaghetti sauce in consistency and taste. bleck!
hehe that's funny, one mans "fart" smell is another womans "good eats" smell.

ok guys. I decided that I will add receipt over here. sorry for my english over here, but cooking (in english) was not my main subject hihi
ok, you take 1kg of chicken breast
2 onions
1 garlic
10 dkg sausage (whatever)
Olive oil
herbaceous bouilon
spice for chicken
black pepper
red pepper
little salt
ok, you cut onions onto small pieces, fry on olive oil. you cut chicken breast into small strips (if that is correct word) and when onion is ready you just fry it along with onion, when chicken is quite ready you add garlic, sausage (all cut into small pieces), later you add 2dcl of water (or more depends on your need), add bouilon, spice for chicken, pepper black and red, little sault and here you go... you prepare pasta and you have complete food. can be served with vegetables (or as my bf uses it with fruit hihi)
bon appetite
