Picture Thread: What's For Dinner?

[vash]

swung for the fence last night with guests over for dinner.

made a Paella. for the record, i think a my big 12in skillet is superior to a paella pan..when done on my stove top. (it was crushing rain yesterday). steamed the extra bivalves in a sauce similar in flavor to a ratatouille. BOOM!

That looks fantastic, Cliff.....nice work!

oh..BOMBA rice. it is the gold standard for a paella. it was my first time last night with it, and i am not going back.

Lamb with a Garlic Rosemary and Anchovy rub. I would have made a damn good wife...

I'll have roasted brussel sprouts and potatoes as well.

I steamed the dumplings then shallow fired them in rice bran oil. The other stuff is hummus, four beans salad out of a tin and "fresh is best" tom'.

My Valentine Day special;

Lamb Shank with Scalloped Potatoes served with a Niagara "Showcase" Pinot Noir (big difference with the normal version from the same vineyard).

And I sincerely hope you turned off your TV and enjoyed some vintage Pink Floyd during your fine dining experience!

Ha ha....nothing wrong with that, Bill....I've never made my own dumplings despite seeing it done on TV a million times. One of those things I figure I will get around to one of these days.

Love dumplings though....yum!

Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery @Tru6

quite possibly the best way to totally thrash your kitchen.

Mexican RED sauce time. this stuff is essentially swiss army knife of mexican food for me. spoon it over tamales, use it in Posole, chili colorado, enchiladas..etc. the list in endless. i make it a couple of gallons at a time. i start with dried pods, toast them in a dry pan and go..ends with this. i freeze it in quart ziplocs frozen flat and use them throughout the year. tonight..chicken burritos.

with all the straining, blending, scooping..you get that stuff everywhere!! dont wear favorite jeans, and get a brand new roll of paper towels ready.
