    Corned beef with kraut, Swiss cheese and thousand island dressing. Very good.

      Corn flake breaded, thin sliced pork chops. Fried in a shallow pan with oil then finished in the oven for 15 minutes for that o-so crispy deliciousness..................................I just talked myself into making chops tomorrow.


      Failing to plan is planning to fail!!!

        One of my many favourites .....


        Apricot chicken and vege's...

        1/2 dozen chicken legs/thights in a stainless pot or baking dish.
        Tin of apricot juice/nector .
        A packet of french onion soup.
        Cover with foil an place in moderate oven for 1 1/2 hr.
        My missus likes the oven,my favourite method is pressure cooker.
        Place mix in a stainless pot in pressure cooker for 45 mins ,turn off stove an let steam down for 15 mins.
        You have to get the pressure cooker water height and s/s pot height correct else the chicken comes out a little running, you can add more packet soup later to thicken it though.

        Chicken falls off the fork. Serve with roast vege or mash, heaps of apricot juice all over .... yum....

          I don't think sauerkraut is fermented, at least not like kimchi is. At least the version of sauerkraut that I like is more like cabbage that is pickled in a brine that's mostly vinegar and salt, so it is good and sour.
          At its most basic level, the reuben sandwich is corned beef and sauerkraut on toasted bread. I think ones that also have thousand island salad dressing and cheese are better, though.

            Ah,Tabasco. The thing that made pretty much all MREs edible while I was probably in the Reserves.

                        My mom is 74 and old school when it comess to cooking. Last year she lost over 70 pounds on a diet, to improve her health. She had pretty much quit cooking. Now my wife has been ill for a while and out of work, mom has started cooking again and sending it home with me. These are some of the things I have had to suffer through over the past few months.

                        Made from scratch, home baked bread, every week. Usually coming out of the oven when I get there on Sunday. Home baked cookies. Lasagna that weighs about 6 pounds in the pan, made with 5 different cheeses and meat. Homemade chicken and noodles. A pizza meatball bake. Mexican lasagna. Enchiladas, beef stew, Chicken on top of mashed potatoes that have been blended with cream cheese then covered in cheddar. Well, you get the idea. I would say the best is the bread. If you have never had bread 10 minutes fresh out of the oven, you should put it on your bucket list. I mentioned that tomato basil was my favorite, and the following week there were 2 loafs waiting on me. Aren't moms wonderful?

                            I've always loved a good Filet Mignon, very lightly seasoned and medium-rare. Putting sauces and "flavourings" on a good steak is blasphemy. I do not tolerate anyone putting ketchup on their steaks in my presence either.

                              I always figure, it is MY steak and I will put whatever I want on it, and you put whatever you want on yours. I won't eat your steak and you don't eat mine..
                              Although ketchup on a steak would be silly.

                                You would be kicked out of any restaurant that serves Kobe Wagyu beef for attempting to put anything on it that wasn't done by the chef. There are some things you just don't do!
