[Matty123]

Sous vide short rib. Water bath 170F for 16 hours then under the broiler for 3 minutes each side

My favorite Soup. Onion Soup, that has onions and garlic sautéed in butter. Then simmered in Beef broth, white wine, bacon and bay leaf. Remove the bacon and bay leaf, puree the onions and garlic. return to the broth, thicken with egg yolks, heavy cream and port wine. Then top with toasted bread and gruyere cheese and broil.

Last night:

Egg Curry
Lamb Dopiaza
Beef Madras
Scorching Chicken
Bengali Cholar Dal
Maldiivian Ultra Hot Chili Relish - made for me and smuggled out of the restaurant kitchen by a Maldivian waiter who appreciated that I liked all things hot and spicy….

This morning, breakfast of champions, left over egg curry…

[rocket]

brilliant…

[neph93]

Need curry. Now. Did you make this from scratch? Might need the egg curry recipe too.

[Giles]

All from scratch.  The egg curry was a bit made up, I decided (well, P demanded) to make the egg curry after I had done the shopping, so I had to go with what I had….This is the recipe I bastardised....

[neph93]

Lovely stuff. Thank you. I’ll look at at making that one night this week.

[Giles]

@neph93 This is the Bengali Cholar Dal….Alex cooked it recently and it was a step up from your average Tarka Dhal, so I thought I would give is a go...

Thanks again. When I taught myself to cook aged 18, I was vegetarian (ugh) and dals from scratch were one of the first things I learnt. Afterwards I learnt a load of Indian dishes, including chutnies and pickles. They’ve all fallen out of rotation over the years as I taught myself other styles and cuisines. I’m now inspired to make a comeback.

[Alex]

She has about 15 dals on there, and for a midweek recipe there is not a lot better in terms of ease:price:nutrition:taste

[Giles]

Do.  There are so many types….........

[neph93]

King prawns in a Delhi style sauce. Pretty darn good…

[Giles]

Now, I'm hungry 

[neph93]

It’s a really tasty sauce. Ended up a bit salty because I didn’t adjust to accomodate the prawns but fekk it.

[Giles]

I made this last weekend.  It is so fucking simple and really delish…....Try it
