What's fer dinner?

[cnycharles]

italian sausage, mushrooms peppers and onions on an onion roll

 

[Eric Muehlbauer]

Fetucchine with lobster sauce....took advantage of the cheap lobsters in the Asian markets...lobster isn't usually very good at this time of year,at least to eat by themselves, so this dish puts them to good use...steam the lobsters briefly...shell them, cut up the meat. Put some of the shells in the steaming water, and simmer to make a stock. Keep the green stuff in a dish for the sauce. Saute leeks, garlic, shallots, mushrooms (I used king oysters for this) and a few grape tomatoes in butter. When ready, add some white wine and sherry, some of the lobster stock and a little saffron. When it begins to reduce, add the bowl of reserved green stuff (roe is better, but there is very little roe in lobsters this time of year). Add the lobster meat and chopped parsley...and some cream. Reduce a little further, then serve over fettucine. Mmmmm!

^^^ Mmmmmmm, sounds delish.


I baked a quarter ham and roasted baby potatoes, brussel sprouts, parsnips, and carrots in olive oil and herbs.

Skirt steak...too rainy and cold to grill, so I pan seared it...then while I finished it off in the oven, I sauteed king oyster mushrooms with garlic and shallot, then added some red wine (malbec...drank the rest) and dried porcini with the soaking liquid...then some parsley and a dash of Worcestershire sauce....put the steak back in the pan with the sauce...MMMM! Had it with baked potato and cauliflower roasted with olive oil and a sprinkle of parmesan......

[Eric Muehlbauer]

Tonight...I was in Chinatown...brought home roast duck, cuttlefish, suckling pig, fried shrimp (the kind with their heads on), string beans, and fresh chow fun..the kind with the dried shrimp in them...Mmmmm!

 

[NYEric]

PB&J. I'm lazy!

 

[Yoyo_Jo]

Crockpot chicken stew with baby potatoes, mushrooms, carrots and onions. Shortbread cookies for dessert. A glass of cab whilst the cookies bake.

 

[Eric Muehlbauer]

Very simple tonight...broiled coho salmon and roasted brussels sprouts....

 

[luvsorchids]

Quilt guild Christmas potluck-everything you could ever want. However, I do question why someone brought Little Smokies in barbeque sauce and served it cold .

 

[Yoyo_Jo]

Beet borscht soup. Started out in the crockpot but had to move it to the stove top because I started it a bit too late in the day. Also in the process of whipping up a batch of cranberry/white chocolate chip cookies.

 

[cnycharles]

nothing! ate too much at work christmas lunch of chicken riggies (sort of), baked chicken, salad, lots of cookies, and utica greens; and rice for the more asian contingent (I brought egg nog)

 

[Eric Muehlbauer]

Squid and mussels over black fettuchine.....sauteed garlic, hot pepper, onion, and some sweet pepper in olive oil...added some white wine ( a really nice Chilean sauvignon blanc!) and a can of crushed tomatoes...added sliced squid...reduced all the liquid....added some parsley and some sliced whelks from a Japanese place near me....added some basil and then the mussels...when done, I ate it! Along with some collard greens stewed in olive oil and water.....Take care, Eric
