The Analog Grownup Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Bought me self a new sauté pan today and thought I will put it to good use the first time. Made a curry dish I saw Jamie Oliver do and thought I would give it a go. Main dish: Olive oilOne half butternut squash2-3 chopped onionsA small bowl of red curry paste1-2 red chilis. Adjust to your own personal taste ;)One half collar flowerA small handful of those little green thingies I have no clue what is in english ;)Some carrots4 cloves of garlicCoriander and parsley3-4 spoons of creme fresh if you like Chop all the vegetables into bits and put it in a sauté pan with olive oil. Add the curry paste, garlic and chili and stir. Add carrots, coriander and parsley and let it cook under high temperature. When the butternut squash is tenderized you can add the creme fresh and season to taste with salt and perhaps some lemon juice. Lemon Pickle: Olive oil1 lemon1-2 tablespoons of turmeric1 half tablespoon of mustard seedsA pinch of dried chili or a couple of slices of fresh chili Chop the lemons after you've removed the seeds. Put a pan on full whack on the stove and put the olive oil and the spices on the pan. Work it together and then add the chopped lemons. Stir it (under full whack - give it all the stove got) for 30 seconds and done. When it cools down the juices will come out and make a lovely thick zesty pickle that goes fantastic with cooked rice. Fire Extinguisher With A Nasty Surprise: Creme fresh with a dash of sambal oelek spice in it ;) Didn't need the meat after all. And butternut squash tastes magnificent! Bon Apetit! :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I admire you for cooking at all. I am so freak'in lazy I just can't do it. Its way to much work for a short and possibly sweet payoff. For me it would be akin to dating a woman who I sort of like for an extended period just to have sex once and I only last 5 minutes.... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those I live together with are impressed that I cook full meals, even when it's only for myself. :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x1yyz Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 A small handful of those little green thingies I have no clue what is in english ;) I believe those are capers in English. That sounds fabulous. And I think I need to try that lemon pickle! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x1yyz Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I love cooking and cook most of my own meals. The trouble with knowing how to cook (and eating healthy foods) is it is much harder to be satisfied with what you get when you go out, unless you spend a lot at a nice restaurant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble with knowing how to cook (and eating healthy foods) is it is much harder to be satisfied with what you get when you go out, unless you spend a lot at a nice restaurant. In danish they're called 'kapers' so I thought it would be 'capers' in english but it seemed too obvious ;) Actually, most of the times I eat out I think to myself that I could cook the food better. Perhaps I should start dining someplace better haha. By the way that lemon pickle can get quite ... powerful, so you may want to adjust it a bit :) Edited April 9, 2014 by The Analog Grownup 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question about the lemon pickle - do you use rind and everything (except seeds)? For all of you lovely people here I would come to the states anyway I use everything except the seeds. The heat tenderizes the rind enough to be chewable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John V Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 What kind of new non-stick pan did you get? I see the rivets, but could not see the handle. I made tamales yesterday. Started Weds night. Talk about a job! You're dish, looks very good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
