Are you sure you're not a professional chef? Your food pics make me very hungry 

[mclaincausey]

Hehe no, but thanks. Just a hobbyist. Even though she's not technically a chef, my wife has worked in catering for years and has a similar obsession with cooking.

My kinda grub…..

[mclaincausey]

Mine too. Nice job on all this Indian, fellas!

We had the leftovers for lunch today, which was even better. I like indian cuisine a lot, the spices and especially the option to cook some really amazing dishes without the need for meat. Austrian cuisine is very focused on meat…

@Chap I highly recommend this book:

Oh that's great… thanks. Been looking for a book with fast and easy indian recipes...  Ordered.

Got this one as a Christmas present from Maxi:

Super easy, super tasty, minimal time required Indian food? This sounds like something I need.

Any bread baking fans here? I’d previously grown up and baked with a sourdough culture, but wasn’t entirely happy with the results and the process of that particular method used and discarded a lot of flour. Found a different method and started a new mother two weeks ago, finally baked with it yesterday. Got pretty good results this time, think I just need to tweak it a little. Pretty tasty too!

[Stuart.T]

@neversummer dear goodness that looks good. I need a hunk of that toasted and dripping in warm butter NOW!

[neversummer]

@Stuart.T Thanks! Olive oil and flaky salt for me, but it is tasty. One of my favorite winter childhood memories is baking bread with my dad. The smell really takes me back!

[neph93]

I bake the families bread on a regular basis, normally one bake day a week. I find the whole process very rewarding and therapeutic.

It is a pretty standard Norwegian style, every day dough though. Dried or fresh yeast and about 50/50 ratio between strong white flour and whole grains/coarse ground grains.

I want to try sourdough but have yet to take the time to experiment with making the base.

Making plans for tonight’s dinner…
