patatas bravas for lunch, yesterdays mango cheesecake.
the former was AMAZING (but i put too much chicken stock in the source because i liked the bubbling noise lol)
the latter was fine but the base was too dry for me
Well son, back in my day, we used to call that 30 mins. Yessir, 10 minutes followed by another 20 was what we called 30 minutes. But, I guess it's all different with you youngsters nowadays. Maths just ain't what it used to be #cooking

Looks great, but I can't help but to imagine how all the fillings would slide off/it being too tall to eat comfortably. (Yeah yeah I know probably eating these with knife and a fork).
@susie Actually, we ate it with our hands and didn't get messy at all. It's not as tall as it looks, the lettuce at the bottom and the onion ring add some height, but a little squeeze does the trick. The key is in how you hold it: three fingers on top, thumbs holding up the front of the bun, and pinkies holding the bottom!
Ate at a breakfast place this morning that only carried Tabasco; for a brief moment contemplated becoming a guy who brings his own hot sauce to restaurants. Is this how getting old begins? #cooking#breakfast#restaurants#HotSauce#old
Well holy shit. I was just writing about how I like Melinda's because it's good and easily available, but prefer Marie Sharp's, which is similar, better, but not as easily available.
So I thought I'd look them up and found scandal and mayhem.
Hey everyone!

On Wednesday I made Callaloo, a dish from Trinidad & Tobago where one of my friends originates from. It is meant to be a soup but often eaten like a side dish with rice. It is named after a green leafy vegetable that is similar to spinach and can by replaced by spinach if you can’t get a hold of actual fresh callaloo.
My friend gave me some pointers but alas I could not get all of the vegetables I should have used in time. It still tasted great and we ate this over two days with the second day making the flavours stronger, as it happens so often. 👌🏻
I started with making Caribbean green seasoning (consisting of many fresh herbs and garlic and some other optional items like a deseeded Habanero pepper) as close to the original as I could. After that I cooked the callaloo (using crab meat, spinach, coconut milk and more). When that was almost done I made basmati rice and added some frozen king prawns to my callaloo on low to medium heat to get them to a perfect consistency.
We also added some of my friend‘s truly homemade hot sauce and everything worked so well together that I‘m sure this wasn’t my last callaloo. 😋
