Blog Post & Recipe: How to cook perfect quiche lorraine

The Good Food recipe also commits the dreadful sin of including cheese in its filling – to be fair, this is a foodie shibboleth with some legs, if Elizabeth David was able to observe back in 1960, that, although Parisian and English cooks often add Gruyère, "Lorrainers will tell you that this is not the true quiche lorraine, whose history goes back at least as far as the sixteenth century."

Blog Post & Recipe: Mushroom Udon Noodles

I love thick, chewy udon noodles and the two kinds of mushrooms add another layer of chew to the dish. They are lightly seasoned with ginger, garlic, soy and sesame.

Grains of rice need to absorb just the right amount of moisture before cooking so they can steam properly (humidity is how heat travels in foods) -- so washing the rice is key.

Blog Post & Recipe: Soto Medan

The soup is simple coconut milk-based soup, cook with spice paste and serve with condiments. Spices used that gives it the vibrant yellowish hue is fresh turmeric root paste. Almost all of fresh and dried spices found and grown in our region is used in the soup. The condiments are shredded chicken meat, bean sprouts, glass noodles and perkedel (potato patties). The soup is served warm with all these, sprinkled with shallot flakes, chopped spring onions and Chinese celery and liberally dosed with kecap manis (sweet soy sauce).

Blog Post & Recipe: leek toasts with blue cheese

I was all set to slow-caramelize the leeks as I would onions when I came upon Molly Wizenberg’s recipe for Leek Confit in Bon Appetit and decided it sounded much more straightforward. I’ve tweaked it a bit — less butter, some swapped for oil, as I didn’t need the full richness of a confit, I leave the leeks wet rather than adding water, etc. — but the basic cooking technique is the same, and it’s a cinch. This would also make a wonderful filling for a crepe or omelet, or with a poached egg on top

Article & Recipes: The California Cook: Mighty, mighty bread crumbs

But what I'd never really realized was the true potential of bread crumbs, how instead of being bland character actors toiling in the background, they can actually become the stars of a dish, or at least a very impressive second lead.

Article & Recipes: Perfect pears

To test to see if a pear is ripe, all you need to do is press the neck of the pear and if it gives a little it is ripe. If it is hard as a rock it needs a bit of time. Pears are rich in fibre and vitamin C – most of this is in the skin, so make sure you are eating some pears in the raw and in their skins to get the maximum nutritional value from them.

Blog Post & Recipe: The Nasty Bits: Fried Fish Bones

Fried fish bones taste like what you imagine of thin and delicate bones: crunchy at the thick parts and crispy at the thin parts, with a slightly fishy flavor. The trick is to leave some of the fish flesh on when you fillet the whole fish, so that the meat clinging to the bone becomes crispy and brown

Saag Paneer Pasta / Leftover Rice Cake / Tomato Chili Lime Marmalade

Blog Post & Recipe: Saag Paneer Pasta

The spinach yogurt curry sauce went perfectly with the pasta. The chunks of fried cheese were a nice crunchy texture balance with the soft noodles.

Blog Post & Recipe: Leftover rice cake

It’s like a massive vege burger in a way, with grilled cheese on top, crispy crumby cheese edges, and a nice moist middle. The bonus is that you don’t need to get your hands dirty shaping any patties, and you don’t need to dip the patties into breadcrumbs. I’m considering making all my vege burger recipes like this from now on – you can still cut them into wedges and put them in a sandwich or bun.

Blog Post & Recipe: Tomato Chili Lime Marmalade

I wasn’t sure whether to call this a marmalade or a relish, I think really it would be a relish because of the tomatoes but the tang of the lime rind really gives it that marmalade edge. So what do you use such a marmalade relish for? Well we have eaten it on toast, with cheese and I have even dipped my fish & chips into it! You could use it to spice up grilled fish or chicken, adding it to the dish before serving or you could just offer it as an extra condiment at the table.

Nettle Beer / Brisket with Rhubarb and Honey / The Song of Ice and Fire Food Blog

Blog Post & Recipe: Homebrew from the hedgerow

This simple brew is easy to make but rather treacherous. The flavour is pleasant, if unsophisticated, and a pint of the stuff has the same effect on one's equilibrium as downing a pint of champagne would have.

Blog Post & Recipe: brisket with rhubarb and honey

I came upon a brisket recipe with rhubarb and honey. I had never considered the combination before, but as soon as my eyes set upon it, it seemed like a no-brainer. The bright, tart rhubarb notes would perfectly highlight the slow-cooked, tender beef.

[This bbq sauce is] pretty undutch but at the same time it’s also a lot like our Dutch piccalilli, only in a sweeter jacket and with different vegetables. Very unlike anything I’ve ever tasted in combination with bbq chicken.

Blog Post & Recipes: Deliciously Upsided Down Dinners

I have an awesome new cookbook that I'll be raving about very soon and this Eggplant Manicotti caught my eye. The funny thing is... there is no real manicotti. The "pasta" is actually slices of eggplant with a very tasty filling.

Ricotta Cheesecake / Potato Croquettes / Kebab-E-Dayg: Kebab Curry

Recipe: Ricotta Cheesecake

Note: This cheesecake needs some form of starch to absorb the liquid in ricotta. Matzo Meal works best.

Blog Post & Recipe: Frying again

Now in possession of modest croquette experience, in the knowledge of both croquette success and croquette failure, may I offer you the following advice. You want to make a nice firm mash: floury potatoes mashed with butter and seasoned generously. Allow the mash to cool for at least 30 minutes.

Blog Post & Recipe: Kebab-E-Dayg: Kebab Curry in the Pakistani Manner

And some days I yearn for kebab-e-dayg, a kebab dish prepared in a large pot; a dayg. A rich tomato sauce is prepared with a fragrant base of caramelised onions and garlic to which kebabs are added and simmered till the sauce has seeped into each tender piece. Mopped up with a light-as-air chapati or drenched over mounds of basmati rice, it is the taste of winters at home in my maternal grandmother, Nani Ami’s home.
