Long time no see, me posting pictures. Now I can move somewhat without my crutches, and I’d like to show you a few pictures of one of my latest cooks.
I’ts nothing fancy, just a tuna salad and some chops.
This automatic stirrer got quite a bashing in a thread on the old forum, because it was not able to stir a thick cheese sauce. Well, no wonder, this thing is not heavy, and is powered by three puny batteries. I pickled some mustard seeds, using a recipe from the momufoku book, and it said “Simmer for 45 minutes, stir often”.
I do not know about you, but I have other things to do than to stir often for 45 minutes when I prepare a meal.
On such jobs, this gizmo works like a charm. Use the tools for what they are intended to do, and do not use them for other jobs. By the way, do try the pickled mustard seeds. They are delicious! Make the mixture more “watery”, the finished product thickens when cooled.
I have to admit, I am not a big fan of canned tuna. I found some fresh tuna, from Indonesia, and wanted to try. Before grilling, covered with salt, pepper and white and black sesame seeds.
On the grill. A tad overcooked, but it was my first try, and the grill was very hot.
Now the main dish, pork chops. It is hard to make this better than the Wizard of pork chops, Mr Lampe, so I won’t even try. Here, rubbed with Spanish sweet peppers, “real American BBQ mix” and fresh black pepper.
Some chantarelles, I finished them with butter in a pan.
Here is the salad, fresh coriander, radish, scallions, lettuce and cucumber.
The sauce goes like this, teriyaki sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar and lime.
Served with some Turkish bread and a dry Spanish cava. Goes with anything!
The main dish, the chop was not so burned that it looks like on the picture. Served with potatoes with some melted butter, mushrooms green salad, and of course the pickled mustard seeds.
Thank you for looking.
