A Cooking Thread?
Boro_Bandito:
Oh yeah, another cooking thread. I'm always down. Be back later, I've got my free day tomorrow so i should have time to cook.
Boro_Bandito:
Right, a double post to reveal my night of cooking! Me and my friend Matt:
decided to have an "easy cooked" meal, wherein we'd provide two dishes a piece. I made Orange BBQ shrimp and orange jell-o shots for dessert. He brought to the table "the easiest pasta dish ever" (pasta, bag of frozen veggies, chicken, microwaved. Actually turned out pretty good) and TGI Fridays fried green bean appetizers. He says its easy, I say its cheating, but they're delicious and so I couldn't complain.
Orange BBQ shrimp:
2 lbs of jumbo size shrimp
like, two cups of your favorite sweet bbq sauce
cup of orange juice, in this case fresh squeezed due to second recipe
put shrimp in zipper bag with orange juice and bbq sauce, slosh em around, let sit for a couple hours. Cook in big pan.
Orange Jell-o shots
as per the easy to follow recipe on Food Network.com I think mine turned out pretty well. We used Clementines rather than a full sized orange for most of them, though we did make one bigger one as a test. Delicious vodka/citrus test it was.
And I also stewed some tomatoes in the leftover sauce from the shrimp and put that on top of that and the pasta.
TGI Fridays cheating:
And the finished meal:
And leftover jell-o that we couldn't waste:
Edit: Occurs to me that I forgot to post the link to the site: http://www.foodtv.ca/recipes/recipedetails.aspx?dishid=6412

Inlander:
Tonight, to go with the left-over Russian lamb stew that I cooked last night, I made some mashed potatoes. Opening the fridge door to get some milk (because what's mashed potato without a bit of milk?), I noticed a jar of anchovies that I'd bought some time earlier, and I thought to myself: "Well, why not?"
Oh my god yes.
