Chicken Tikka Masala - quick weeknight dinner. Picked up the naans from the supermarket as well, but didn't care for them. Totally different than the authentic ones you get at an Indian restaurant straight out of the tandoor.

Homebrewed Jamil's saison.

Braised beef short ribs (pan-fried on high heat, then stewed in a dutch oven for 2 hours with a lid on and 45 mins with the lid off), served with parsnip/carrot puree. The recipe called for an entire bottle of red wine for the beef to stew in + the five-spice mix. Came out delicious, meat was...

Wow - $7 for a SN SIXER! In Singapore, a single bottle from a store (not a bar) would set you back around USD 5.80. I am quite confident that those of us who brew US-style beers overseas (myself included) save a fairly decent chunk of change by homebrewing vs buying.

Nothing; just assembled the ingredients :p :mug:

Strawberry salad -> spinach, strawberries, toasted pecan nuts & goat cheese. Dressing - EV olive oil, raspberry vinegar & poppy seeds. Goes down really well with a nice "minerally" Chablis.

Fully agree, umeboshi is quite an "acquired taste" condiment; not being Japanese, I am still getting fully used to it myself. :mug:

Lazy Sunday lunch.. Japanese udon in a broth with natto (Japanese fermented beans), okra, Umeboshi (Japanese sour plum) paste and onsen-style egg. Dark saison on the side.

Middle Eastern lamb stew, slow-cooked for two hours. Dried figs added a very nice touch.

Those are some seriously bad-ass kebabs!!! :mug::rockin: :ban: Had a massive surge of saliva in my mouth :p Is this lamb marinated in yogurt?

Chilli con carne, served with my 7.7% HB'ed tropical stout.

Last night's beef Stroganoff with quinoa on the side. Would usually cook it with buckwheat, but I ran out of it.

Looks absolutely delicious! :mug: Indonesians and Malaysians would also typically add kaffir lime leaves, galangal (in addition to ginger) and the crushed whites of lemongrass stalks into their beef rendang. If you are able to source these additional ingredients, they will add a nice touch...

Almost forgot the smoked salmon quiche.

Cioppino (fishermen's stew). Includes the following: - Lumps of crabmeat - Fillet of seabass - Fillet of red snapper - Clams - Shrimp - Scallops Came out absolutely delectable.

Thought I was the only one :mug:

I wear my diving mask when I grind fresh horseradish roots. Highly recommend it.

Palm oil's health benefits are fairly questionable. Here's what the experts say: "Palm oil is used around the world in such foods as margarine, shortening, baked goods, and candies. Biomedical research indicates that palm oil, which is high in saturated fat and low in polyunsaturated fat...

Wow - that's enough soup to feed a platoon!! :rockin: How long does it last you? Looks delicious! :mug:

Some nights just want to keep it simple.
