Killer Sauce Recipe:
Garlic
Rosemary
Tomatoes
Put tomatoes in blender. (Remove seeds if you want to speed things up.) Sautee garlic and rosemary, add blended tomatoes. Cook as long as it takes to get to the consistancy you want. Throw in whatever meat you like while it's cooking. When finished, serve with pasta and throw some cheese on top. Good stuff. |

you know....for someone that prides herself SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH in being so 50/50 in a relationship, you sure do make it hard to believe when you make contributions to threads like this.  |

Nice! I hadn't thought of using the blender. That'll be much better than smooshing them up in the pan with a wooden spatula.
I didn't see rosemary at the store, so what I'll be using for flavor is minced garlic, oregano, and Mediterranean basil.
I'm also going to put in some hand-packed sausage. Funny thing about that: I was at HomePlus this morning, traipsing about in pursuit of the sausages, which were tucked away in a corner beside a display. The guy hawking the sausage and grease cutlets saw me walk by, clapped his hands loudly two times and yelled, 'SOSIJI!!!!!" Damn. First time ever I had to succumb to the yelling of a grocery purveyor. He looked so victorious and pleased with his effective sales pitch, too. I couldn't stop laughing... |

Well.... we wanna know how it went?
Considering the heat of summer, a nice chicken salad would go down well and not be too filling.
Simply marinate some chicken fillets in soy sauce, minced garlic and honey for a couple of hours. Fry in a pan on low heat.
Throw together a colourful salad (avocado goes particularly well with chicken) and arrange the sliced chicken breast over the salad.
Lightly toast some pine nuts (avail in fresh vege section) in a pan and toss over with a light drizzling of balsamic.
Delicious, healthy and EASY!! |

| Just for the record, some people here have made unfair assumptions about Korean men. I have had wonderful food made by Korean guys. When I was teaching back home a group of my Korean male students came to my house and spent over 3 hours cooking up a banquet for me. Then before I left for Korea another group of Korean guys invited me to their flat for a delicious dinner. |

Yes, but these Korean guys you mention were abroad, where they no doubt picked up strange customs from the natives. Besides that, it's seems clear they were born without penises. |

Surprise her with an apron, a skillet and an open fridge door.
"Thanks for coming around. You're the woman. You cook."
If you are so weak as to cook for her, send her outside to eat.
Never do a thing for a woman- They'll only ever throw it back in your face.
Besides that. Behaving in this fashion guarantees that you'll get some. We all know women love mongrels. |

That, or their grannies really did carry out the traditional threat to keep Korean men out of the kitchen.
In the spirit of Guru's earlier post about easy meals...
Broiled Curry-Chicken Sandwich
8 slices of toast
1 cup of cooked chicken, shredded
1/2 cup of onion, minced
1/4 cup of green or red bell pepper (or a combo of both)
1/2 cup of peanuts, crushed
1/2 cup of mayo
1 Tablespoon of lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon curry powder
(boil a couple of chicken breasts about 20 minutes, cool and shred)
1. Butter each slice of toast
2. Mix all the ingredients
3. Spread on the toast
4. Bake in toaster oven a few minutes until bubbly.
OR:
Chicken Subs
1/2 cup of sour cream (or plain yogurt)
2 Tablespoons of green onion
2 teaspoons of mustard
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/8 teaspoon of garlic salt (or just a pinch of salt and some crushed garlic)
4 French rolls (or baguettes or whatever)
Lettuce
8 slices of cooked chicken breasts
4 slices of cheese
1/4 cup of sliced olives (green or black)
1/3 cup of bean sprouts
1. Mix the first 5 ingredients and refrigerate till you are ready to eat.
2. Split the bread and spread the refrigerated mixture on both sides
3. Layer the other ingredients
OR
Chicken Salad
1/4 cup of pecans (toasted in the oven for about 5 minutes) or walnuts
1/3 cup mayo
1 Tablespoon of Dijon mustard (or other)
1 Tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
1 teaspoon of orange rind (use a grater or potato peeler--don't use the white pith)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 cups of shredded (cooked) chicken
1 stalk of celery, sliced
1 Tablespoons of onion, minced
1. Toast and cool the pecans
2. Mix the next 5 ingredients, then add the shredded chicken, celery and onion
Corn Chowder
(This soup is easy and really pretty--lots of color. It's as close to my granny's recipe as I've been able to come.)
2 slices of bacon
1/2 carrot, diced
1/2 onion, diced
1 bell pepper (red looks best in the soup, but green is fine)
1 stalk of celery, sliced
1 large potato, diced
pinch of garlic
1 small can of corn
1 1/2-2 Tablespoons of flour
1 1/2 cups of chicken stock (or veggie stock...or plain water)
1 bay leaf (remove before serving)
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard (or any mustard)
salt and pepper
1/2 cup of milk or cream
1. Fry the bacon in a pot until crisp, remove and cool. Crush. Put back in the pan.
2. In the bacon grease (add butter or oil if you need to) add the carrots, pepper, celery, onion and garlic. Saute about 5 minutes.
3. Add the flour and stir it around for a minute or so, but don't burn it.
4. Add the chicken stock, bay leaf, salt and pepper, mustard and potato. Simmer about 15 minutes until the potato is done. Give it a taste and see if you want more pepper and/or mustard.
5. Add the drained corn.
6. Add the milk and heat about 2 minutes...Don't let it boil.
Throw a salad together and with the sandwiches/soup, you have a decent meal. |

Okay, it went great! It was my first time ever making bruschetta and homemade pasta sauce. The bruschetta was good, not the best, but the pasta sauce was incredible, if I do say so myself. I'm never going to buy sauce in a jar again! I know, I know.. many of you will think me a philistine, but I've always been a jarred sauce kind of guy. Never again!
Next time I'm going to try making my own pasta. I read somewhere that pasta sauce is supposed to complement rather than overwhelm the taste of the pasta, which got me thinking... pasta has a taste? Obviously, this bagged stuff is not living up to its own possibilities.
Homemade pasta, and if I can find some decent parmesan, some homemade cream sauce. To die for.
Btw, gonna bookmark this thread.  |

What? "Penises" is a common, ordinary, everyday word. But "bre@sts" -- that's naughty talk. |
