okay.. i was like that aint fish.

SodaLuvr

It's like the fish paste stuff you buy at the Asian store...it's gooey when it's raw and has the consistency and appearance of wall filler or something.

S14 n Tsx

damn it... I was going to eat but have to figure this out before I go.

SodaLuvr

red stuff is corn beef
rice is white stuff (duh)
tan colored stuff is some chinese vegetable
tan colored stuff with burned marks on the side is the fish stuff

Mizouse

ahh i know about that fish paste stuff, we use those when we have hotpot


as for that vegetable is it... lau bot? something like that dont even know how to type it in english

SodaLuvr

If you ever eat dim sum and order the bell peppers with some fish filling in the middle, it's the same stuff I'm eating right now.

I think it's just called pre-made fish paste or something at the asian market.

S14 n Tsx

I give up... :surrender

GreenMonster

Bok Choy ??

S14 n Tsx

I see.. did you eat it already or still eating?

Mizouse

no thats not it, bok choy is green and a leafy type of vegetable

this is more like a root me thinks, something similar to taro root

S14 n Tsx

okay... i dont know what that is.

SodaLuvr

DONE.

Mizouse

hey why not just merge it with the existing "what's for dinner thread"

S14 n Tsx

Ahi tuna over greens:

Ahi (about 6-8 oz)
Sear it, 1.5 minutes per side, then remove from heat

Slice up
Euro cucumber (1/4)
Radishes (3)
Cherry tomatoes (3 or 4)
Avocado (1/2)
Greens

Mix together
1-2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1-2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons olive oil
Wasabi powder

Put dressing over greens/vegetables, then slice the ahi and lay it over everything. Pretty tasty.

Mother's Day Meal

Smoked Prime Rib-It was awesome
Smoked Pork Ribs
Potato Salad
Corn
Saute spinach with garlic
Grilled pineapple and vanilla bean ice cream for dessert

Holy hell it was a lot of food.

I smoked the meats myself and gor a perfect rare on the prime rib.

I've been doing a simple cauliflower for the past few lunches:

As much cauliflower as you feel like eating
Enough olive oil to coat
Salt
I'll sometimes add a some red pepper


Mix everything in a bowl, set the oven to 350ish, put in for about 25 min, shaking the pan every once in a while.

Tastes pretty damn good. I'll even throw in some garlic.

My fish shop was closed so I had to buy some shit ass tuna from the regular shop - didn't turn out horrible, though it is a semi-weird color. Oysters were damn good though

EuRTSX

That looks great man, I love a great Tuna Meal.

Just made risotto with asparagus and mushrooms.

Cold pizza ftmfw that I found in the fridge (I have no idea what was on it, but it was gooood).

Yumcha

Went to Mom's to have some home-cooking.

NetEditor

Just whipped me up some seared ahi and asparagus.

moeronn

Where did you get the ahi/what quality was it? We get either frozen steaks from Trader Joe's or "fresh" from Costco. Either way, we (especially my wife) are leary of eating it any way other than cooked throughout. Though, I will eat it raw at a sushi restaurant.

Also, did you make a sauce for it? Recipe?

Lastly...

wndrlst

Gawd that sounds great right about now.... (jealous)

Will Y.

Wife just prepped pan-seared sirloin steaks (non-frozen meat from Costco) for us.
Thank goodness my [business] lunch at Claimjumpers was a chicken salad.

NetEditor

Whoops. No pics. Already gone.

I get the ahi from Whole Earth. Not sure if it's sashimi quality, but if it isn't, it's pretty darn close. I did make a sauce, Asian aiolo: 1/2 cup mayo; 1TSP wasabi, more if you like it spicy; 1 tsp honey; 1TSP soy sauce; and 1 tsp dijon mustard.

Mizouse

i had a baked chicken breast steak, bean sprouts and brown rice.

Made some Goan Fish Curry tonight, with Cod Fillets, turned out really good

Now that I have my grill and rotisserie going, I did a 5# prime rib with thick cut grilled new potato and grilled bell peppers of various colors.

After that was a rotisserie of 2 herb encrusted chickens, with grilled zucc and asparagus.

Love the set it and forget it aspect of grilling with the rotisserie.

NetEditor

Tonight's menu: Pan-seared sea scallops in a teriyaki glaze over a bed of spinach.

you mofos need to post pictures

BEETROOT

just picked up some yellow curry chicken from Thai Lahna, best thai food place in the country.

NetEditor

Will do.

I might try this next time we buy fresh. Lately, we have been buying the "roast" size pieces, cutting and freezing. I think from now on we'll stick to just buying a couple of fresh steaks and eating them within a day or two.

Thanks for the aiolo recipe. I'd also be interested in a "lighter" and tamer sauce - i.e. no mayo and no wasabi.

There was a pretty tastey Ethiopian restaurant in Tempe. Can't remember exactly where. It was the first and only place I've had Ethiopian and I was pleasantly surprised how good it was. Haven't found a place out here, but there have to be a few.
