What's For Dinner Tonight?

A member posted up a recipe for morrocan short ribs recently . The last two winters short ribs have been a monthly thing in our house (ny strip in the summer, short ribs in the winter) so I had to give this recipe a try. Onions, carrots, mixed olives, dried apricots, and diced tomatoes make up the sauce. Quite a few spices as well. The dried apricots give the sauce more of a chutney like consistency. It was a winner.I'll be saving this recipe. Not the prettiest plating but the flavor is there

Thanks @FresnoFarmer

What’s for breakfast

natureboygrower · Feb 19, 2020

Jerk chicken last night. The key to this recipe is to let it marinate for at least 3 days.
Basic white rice and salad for our sides, I gotta step that up. This isnt a super hot jerk so a spicy rice would go well with it.

Lula kabob, rice pilaf, and fattoush.

Spaghetti. Healthy enough.

Picked up some killer looking vietnamese noodles from the store, never had them. Made a bit of a mash up. Steak, onion, garlic, portobello, fresno pepper and green onions.

Just finished dinner and realized I'm a giant pussy. Didnt even put the whole pepper in there and that fucker lit me up.

Looking good @FresnoFarmer , we're doing spaghetti later this week

This wasnt so bad where it made my lips burn, I hate that. It surprised because hardly any seeds made it into the wok

Yeah, that looks really good. A lot of different flavors and textures in there. You put some work into that, nice job.
I wont be showing that to my wife lol. She could easily go vegetarian.

I used to grow a lot of peppers and I've seen that before too. The capsaicin could be leaching from the seeds??? Idk

Add Nuoc Mam (fish sauce) and some lime juice and you're golden, good looking dish, nice work.

Beer cheeseburger and salad at my local watering hole, yum.

Thank you. That sounds really good, it did taste like something was missing. When would you add it?

During cooking it takes out some of the raw fish flavor. I'd add (brands I use):
1 tbl fish sauce (Squid or shrimp brand are my favorites)
1 tbl oyster sauce (Oyster Sauce Maekrua Brand)
1 tbl soy sauce (Healthy Boy Mushroom Soy Sauce)
You can find them all on Amazon. I also add sweet salted radish when I make those size noodles.
