.::.Welcome


Ok. So this thread was started after I shared a recipe in my other hangout and thought that a place to share recipes and cooking tips might be a good idea.

I hope this is the right place to put this thread, but I want it to be a place to talk as well as share tips/recipes.

    A recipe from from bns_jck on Gaia:
    Chicken Burritos

    3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    1/2 cup each white and orange chedder cheese
    1 cup sour cream
    1 can green chilies (127ml)
    Tortilla shells / wraps
    Green onions (optional)

    Preheat oven to 350 degree F.
    Cut the chicken into bite-sized cubes and cook in frying pan with butter until cooked through. Add the sour cream, chilies and half of the cheese, stir until melted. Fill and wrap tortilla shells with mixture, and place into a greased oven-safe dish. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top, and green onions if desired. Bake for 20 minutes.


Nikki's Chicken Pineapple
1 lb. chicken, cut into small pieces
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, sliced
3-4 tablespoons of butter (vegetable oil can also be used as substitute)
1 can crushed pineapple (chunks can also be used)
1/2" slice fresh ginger, minced or grated
1 can evaporated milk
1/2 cup soy sauce (or according to taste)

Wash chicken. Place in a bowl. Combine crushed pineapple, ginger and soy sauce. Allow to marinate for 1 hour.

In a pan melt the butter (or oil) and sauté garlic and onion. Add chicken pieces and cover. When chicken is half cooked, add the marinade and bring to a boil over low heat. When chicken is tender and almost cooked, stir in the milk."

    2 onions
    parsnips
    carrots
    leek
    cabbage
    turnip
    swede
    potatoes
    sweet potatoes
    beans
    peas
    sweetcorn

    Dice 2 onions and fry in a large pan with chopped garlic, cumin, coriander, mixed herbs, paprika and pepper til see-through. Then add whatever mix of vegetables you like including any from the list above. I usually use 3 or 4 types in one dish. Cover the veg with stock and add a good 4 glugs of Worcestershire Sauce.
    Boil for like 40 mins til the veg is cooked, add some more Worcestershire Sauce and serve Smile Tastes great with herbed bread.

    I find that if you cook with a little chili oil at the beginning it adds a nice heat to the dish Smile

    Kryztol's Chocolate Cheesecake
    -Crush digestive biscuits (chocolate-covered is the best but normal will be fine)
    -Add melted butter and stir til all mixed then pat into a tin. You want the base about 10cm thick.
    -Bake this for 8-10 minutes at 180C/Gas Mark 4
    -Boil 100ml milk and 200ml double cream
    -Pour on top of 100g milk chocolate and 200g dark chocolate (broken up into small squares)
    -Mix together so all the chocolate is melted
    -When mixed, add 2 eggs and 2tbsp caster sugar and whisk til smooth.
    -Pour into the tin ontop of the base
    -Bake for 35-40 minutes at 150C/Gas Mark 2
    -Take out and let cool for at least 30 minutes.
    It'll be so warm and gooey if you slice and eat after 30 minutes, and becomes harder and sweeter the longer you leave it and the cooler it gets.

    Tastes great with raspberries or sliced banana to the side.


Maeve's Monkey Bread:
Brioche Dough
310 ml (1 ¼ cups) buttermilk, warm
60 ml (¼ cup) sugar
750 ml (3 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
10 ml (2 teaspoons) instant dry yeast
2.5 ml (½ teaspoon) salt
90 ml (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted

Topping
125 ml (½ cup) unsalted or salted butter, melted
180 ml (¾ cup) brown sugar
180 ml (¾ cup) sugar
7.5 mL (1 ½ teaspoons) ground cinnamon

Brioche Dough
1. In a bowl, combine the buttermilk and sugar. Set aside.
2. With a wooden spoon or a in the stand mixer (using the dough hook), combine the flour, yeast and salt. Add the buttermilk mixture and mix thoroughly until the dough begins to form.
3. Gradually add the butter and knead for about 5 minutes in the stand mixer or on a floured surface. The dough will be soft and slightly sticky. Place the dough in a clean and lightly oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and leave in a warm and humid place for about 1 hour.
4. Generously butter a bundt pan. Set aside.

Topping
1. In a bowl, pour the melted butter. In another bowl, combine the brown sugar, sugar, and cinnamon. Set aside.
2. Remove the dough from the bowl and cut into approximately 40 pieces of various sizes. Without overworking the dough, shape balls with the palm of your hands.
3. Dip the balls in the butter to coat. Roll in the brown sugar mixture and place them progressively into the pan. Pour the remaining brown sugar mixture and butter on the dough balls into the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm and humid place for 45 minutes.
4. With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
5. Remove the plastic wrap and bake for 40 minutes for a dark bundt pans or for 45 minutes for a pale bundt pan, or until the caramel is golden brown and bubbly around the edges. Immediately unmould on a serving platter. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Eat warm or cold, preferably the same day.

Aww it's great to see you three Smile
It's great to hear you'll be lurking here Chu..but you should also post your recipies ^.^

I'll give you all a great one; one I can't wait to make again soon:
Kryztol's Chocolate Cheesecake
-Crush digestive biscuits (chocolate-covered is the best but normal will be fine)
-Add melted butter and stir til all mixed then pat into a tin. You want the base about 10cm thick.
-Bake this for 8-10 minutes at 180C/Gas Mark 4
-Boil 100ml milk and 200ml double cream
-Pour on top of 100g milk chocolate and 200g dark chocolate (broken up into small squares)
-Mix together so all the chocolate is melted
-When mixed, add 2 eggs and 2tbsp caster sugar and whisk til smooth.
-Pour into the tin ontop of the base
-Bake for 35-40 minutes at 150C/Gas Mark 2
-Take out and let cool for at least 30 minutes.
It'll be so warm and gooey if you slice and eat after 30 minutes, and becomes harder and sweeter the longer you leave it and the cooler it gets.

Tastes great with raspberries or sliced banana to the side.

Does anyone know how I can do that thing where it hides the recipe but leaves the 'Kryztol's Chocolate Cheesecake' and people can click it to expand?
