Thread: Dinner

^That looks nice minus the steak for me. I hope I can add years to my life eating like this.. never felt better actually.

Dinner yesterday.. I often eat this type of meal, 50/50 plate. half veggies, half carb like quinoa/sweet potato/rice.

Steal won't make you fat.

Interesting salad combo plate MM. I enjoy various Salads 2 to 3 times a week for dinner. Quite enjoyable. But still love me a steak, chicken, ribs off the grill on the other days. We don't bake anything round these parts unless my wife is making Chocolate Chip Cookies.

You are a complete moron. Do you realize how big America is? What you are posting about is an allergy that very few people are afflicted with.

The clown car rambles on.

I wasn't even sure how to respond to Helges post but your your comment about, "Do you know how big America is" pretty well sums it up.

Calm down

Was just a little comment to Stumpy's love of steaks.

Nothing more than a little fun (except for steak lovers who get bitten)

I have personally never heard about this nasty little fellow before

Treading the Isaan waters today, though never been there and neither has M'Sahib. Laab tod, with sticky rice. Gathered the makings for the Laab tod first of all, pork mince, diced shallots, minced lemongrass, minced galangal, chopped fresh pak chee, some flour, fish sauce, fresh lime juice, and some kafir lime leaves. Concern was the almost empty hot chilli powder, maybe only half a teaspoonful left.



First off, dry roasted a couple of spoons of uncooked sticky rice and some torn lime leaves. Roasted until turned a dark golden brown then ground into as near a powder as you can get it.







All the ingredients then mixed together in a bowl, and into the fridge until ready to turn into meatballs.



OK, nearly ready to go, though I may have made the meatballs a little on the large side.



Batch cooking them in oil whilst the sticky rice is steaming.



As I thought, a little on the large side so some tended to break up (live and learn). Also needed a bit of an extra kick from more chilli powder so had the every ready sriracha sauce to hand.



I was actually complimented on my sticky rice, not easy to get right apparently.

You really need to take your clown car someplace else. Are you dating Sabang?

A rambling car seems weird though, even for a clown.

Man PAG sure knows how to throw it down. Food always looks top notch and well planned.

^^ Did you meet up with Armstrong

Hat Yai style fried chicken for tonight. A mix of drumsticks and thighs marinated overnight in the fridge, then once brought up to room temperature, rice flour mixed into the bowl with the chicken and marinade to form a light batter just thick enough to coat the chicken before frying in a wok.



Very juicy chicken, which is the star of the show, not the batter like KFC.



Side of sticky rice with crispy fried shallots, and a few spoons of sweet chilli sauce. I'm nearly going native.......

Larp Gai Yang and a lemon tea with no sugar- one of my favorite combos.

nothing wrong with that, looks great apart from the onions - were they bitter like Sausages

Great beer snack, love the smoked chilis, 1 pointed deducted for the missing U

Beef dripping Yorkies as well..

Slightly bitter. A little bit odd, quite golden when I fished them out from frying, but then darkened. Worked with the sticky rice though. Tonight, a revisit to sweet and sour pork, as we have a family member visiting at the moment so it was a request. M'Sahib not forgotten, with a sweet and sour tofu. Pineapple rice kept the citrus theme going.

Again, PAG, looks delicious mate

Nice Manda, one of my favourites, ice tea to wash it down? Those wings look good as well Mandy, is that the ultra sweet and spicy sauce?

Nice Joe, you can never go wrong with some beef and yorkies!

The dog looks startled by the taste.

In dog expression language, it's 'WTF'.

Made two of these this evening, each one with 6 good slices. Out of the 12, only 2 were wrapped in foil and put into the fridge, so they can't have been bad. The sauce straight forward tin of tomatoes turned into a passata, with tomato puree, dried oregano, and a good amount of Sriracha put in, then simmered until quite thick. Topping was some sliced Shitake mushrooms, red pepper, and shallots, with a finishing of mainly mozzarella and a sprinkling of cheddar.

Off the grill...

Plated...
