Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

My Children's ages range between 37 and 57 years of age...

...so they all left my home Centuries ago!

They all have families of their own now to feed...so I have zillions of Grand Children and Great-Grand Children!

I just enjoy cooking for myself now, and sharing the results on the Internet, and at my dinner Table, for visitors!... Cool...!

I asked because parents always end up cooking food which is "good for you" and hardly ever cook something actually enjoyable e.g lasagne Angry Sad
But it really is interesting and If I need any recipes I'll ask

My version of this would have a slightly different flavor (although, only for that cause, I might add a little corn flour); my 'thickening' ingredient of choice for this sort of thing is instant potato (which doesn't replace the inclusion of the pieces of whole potato, however -- in this case, since potato is already an ingredient, it doesn't actually add an alien flavor, either).

Hi Paul.... Seems like I'm always reading your food posts when I'm hungry. Most of them sound pretty tasty. Why don't you post all your recipes on the web somewhere and give us all the link.   Smiley

anyone need some recepies?
i know some,dont know the times,mom does most of the cooking.(i am more of a salad person since i will burn my hands if i am even NEAR something hot)
the amounts are acording to your taste so...

king prawn(or any big shrimp-like creature:tiger prawns are the best but thet are expensive.)
chili peppers.(any kind realy,depends on your taste)
onion.
bit of garlic.
and herbs,doesnt realy matter what.
the advantage of this:you can change it easily.

we used to eat this when we had leftover stuff:
spicy beans

beans(the dark thin ones)
some carrots could be added.
peppers.(jalapenós,thai,and/or the REALY spicy yellow ones(be carefull with these))
few teaspoons of sambal(asian thing,not available everywhere)
stirr and add whatever.

these are all spicy but you can experiment.
and a nice mussel recepy but you need big fresh ones for that:so no supermarket rubbish.
anyone interested?

Heres one for you. Go to your local chinese food supply shop - the kind that sells chinese nick nacks, ,unusual foods, bags of unusual stuff. Find some tubs of chinese curry sauce. Its like a paste-in-a-tub.


In the morning before you plan to make this lovely dinner, get some Uncle Bens rice on the go. After 10 minutes, drain and place in a colander, rinse under cold water, pop in a bowl and bang in it in the fridge till much later....


Take a few breasts of chicken and chop into bite size peices. Place in a bowl and chuck in some ginger, soy sauce, paprika, lemon juice and use your hands to coat the chicken till its all nice and covered. Put aside for laters.

Chop 2 onions, some red and green chillies (one if your not into hot stuff, two or three if your brave) as much garlic finely chopped as you want, a pepper (red or green) a handful of spring onions. You can add mushrooms if you wish to this list.

Take a biggish frying pan. Add oil, salt, pepper, and heat.

Once really hot, add the chillies and garlic, then add the onions. Let them sizzle a while then add the chicken. Add the peppers, spring onions and mushrooms.

Add more salt and pepper, a dusting of hot curry powder, maybe some chilli powder. Toss and stir till everything looks nice  Wink

Take your chinese curry sauce tub and scoop out three or four tablespoons of the paste and put into a mixing jug. To this add some water and stir until its like a sauce.

Add this to your still sizzling pan and stir in. Turn down the heat and it will thicken slightly, or add a little more paste. Squeeze in some tomato puree, stir. More seasoning perhaps.

Taste with a teaspoon! Yum Shocked

Put your pan of goodies on a small ring on a low heat and allow to simmer till your ready. When you are ready and your rice is cold cold cold, get a wok going on the cooker with a little oil till its almost smoking!

Take some eggs - say 2 per person and crack into a jug. Whisk as you would for scrambled egg but dont add any milk. Maybe a little salt and pepper.

Pour into the wok and scramble the eggs, stirring up to break them up into small peices.

Then throw in the rice. Dont let it stick (if you used Uncle Bens it shouldnt) Stir to mix up with the eggs and add soy sauce. Quickly fry your Egg fried rice (aha!!) till its hot then serve.....

Oh man its wonderful, a hot chinese curry with egg fried rice. You wont go back to the take away for one anytime soon, trust me!


You can add to it whatever you want really, make it hotter or cooler. And water chesnuts, anything!

You can make the curry sauce yourself with some flour and curry powder, mixed with water. But if you do turn down the heat in the pan before adding to your chicken, stir in then turn the heat up....

You can do it with strips of beef also, you can really put anything in it!!! Man im hungry! Shocked

thats the motto for most of our dishes. Grin
litarly.
baked potatoes(or fried,we call em baked):chilipowder
chicken breast:LOTS of chilipowder.
anything asian(and we know loads)TONS of chilipowder.

but we are famous here for our cooking:the soup(in our village its just a mash of whatever is in it and chicken soup without chicken),the saté(probably different name),the saté sauce,the chinese and the fish but since we are right next to the sea its no problem getting a few cods of 5/7 kg,mackerel and sometimes ling.
