Then I learned about Peruvian tequenos using wanton dough... which would look just like yours. At some point I’m going to try making some, maybe in the Venezuelan style or maybe like yours. The Venezuelan style’s bread is much more like pastry... might be easier for me to do as I’ve got no experience at all with wanton dough. 1 Quote

The Venezuelan kind are more like Arepas I think, but we do it in a more Peruvian chifa kind of way. I much prefer our kind, wasn't a huge fan of Venezuelan tequeños! Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 I made a cheese filled burger today 1 1 Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Here’s another one. It’s toast with ricotta cheese, roasted tomatoes & garlic with some walnuts and a balsamic glaze. Oh and Parmesan. Not bad 3 Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Saw a recipe online, made it... did it wrong. Turned out great though (at least in taste, not appearance ) Quote

It’s a “breakfast pizza” with eggs and cheese, the bread’s croissant dough though. I don’t think that’s the case with khachapuri though. 1 Quote

I pulled them out of the oven and they just looked totally wrong and then I looked at the recipe again and I apparently just autopiloted and did things a different way without realizing But it was tasty, despite me wondering “why the fuck does this look different?” One good thing about covid is I’ve been cooking more and I think I’m getting better at making things that taste good! Silver linings or some shite like that. 1 Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 Normally I’m lazy with pasta and I just buy sauce from a store. This time I made a sauce. Turned out good! 4 Quote
Moderator Tommy Posted September 17, 2020 Author Moderator Posted September 17, 2020 Making Shakshuka tomorrow. I love it and eat it almost twice a month at least. And the on Saturday I'll try my hands on a proper authentic Bolognese that has to cook 3-4 hours. Sick of that canned stuff that has too much sugar in it. Pics may follow if I manage to dish it up nicely. 2 Quote
Administrator Stan Posted September 17, 2020 Administrator Posted September 17, 2020 Cooked some chicken fajitas last night with some peppers. Quite simple but turned out good. Gave it some Indian spice too of course. Nice. 1 Quote

I never buy the canned stuff, it just doesn't taste good... It's pretty easy to make a decent meat sauce at home, even without doing it the proper long way. I just sautee some onion, carrot and celery, add ground beef, seasoning, passata, tomato pulp, and let it all simmer... Add a glass of wine if I happen to have any, which is not usually the case. Obviously not authentic, but pretty damn good and simple! 1 Quote

Obviously not authentic, but pretty damn good and simple! Sounds good, and that sounds pretty close to a proper Bolognese too. Weird how "Spaghetti Bolognese" is so popular in Germany whereas Italians never eat Bolognese with Spaghetti. I bought some Tagliatelle for it! One day I also want to try to make my own pasta. It sounds simple but I think the kitchen will need renovating after that. Quote

Never made my own pasta either, unless Spätzle counts 1 Quote
nudge Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 How was that Bolognese, @Tommy? I made Flammkuchen today... Think I went overboard with cheese a bit, but other than that, it turned out quite nice. 2 Quote

Cooked it over 3 hours and served it with some greenTagliatelle. I will never eat Bolognese any other way again. 2 Quote
