Nice, here is my stupid chicken noodle spaghetti dish I made Friday.

>>16584015
>>16584017
10/10 good shit op

>>16584015
Looks great.

I worked late today but I stopped by the store and picked up some Rana spinach and cheese tortellini and made some blackened chicken to go with it. It was worth the effort. The spice of blackened chicken goes well with an Alfredo sauce.

>>16584610
Came out well and was very tasty. Bonus is I have half of it left for tomorrow’s lunch.

>>16584610
I've eaten a stupid amount of rana stuffed pastas this year, not even that mad about it

>>16584015
you said there would be scallops. where are the scallops

>>16584636
see>>16584017

>>16584631
>not even that mad about it
No reason to, who the fuck has the patience to actually make their own tortellini? Rana is as good as it gets when it comes to store bought and it’s ready in 4 min. shit is cash when you need a quality meal made quick with low effort. I do make my own alfredo although theirs is very good as well.

>>16584707
glad you also see the convenience, about to make some now that we mention it
OP, looks good mango, personally haven't used sous vide but I've had it before and it can turn out pretty well - not sure I love the idea of boiling stuff in a bag, not like I've actually done any tests to see if there's significant plastic transfer, but then again i like to get worked up over small details while throwing my health down the drain with myriad bad habits

>>16584720
I have a sous vide that break out every once in a while. I like the results it gives but it takes a lot of the joy out of cooking. It really feels like cheating and I just get more enjoyment cooking a perfect steak the old fashioned way in my skillet.

>>16584720
Thanks man. I only really use it on expensive cuts that I want to make sure come out perfect.

Gotta say though, not a huge rib eye fan. For a little more I'd rather get a nice filet mignon. I imagine the better marbled Wagyu stuff is better, but most ribeyes are just too fatty for me and even when sous vide to a near perfect medium it still wasn't as tender as a filet.

The scallops were outta this world though.

Yang rou chuan for lunch - lotsa cumin

>>16584015
I slept from 5am to 12pm. Did some stuff and ate 2 packs of cookies. Then slept from 5pm to 8pm. Layed in bed for hours and ate another pack of cookies. Now it's 1:21am.

>>16584989
And a side of smacked cucumber

>>16584996
never heard of that but it looks fantastic? recipe?

>>16584991
everything okay anon?

>>16584615
perfect cook on that chicken.

>>16584577
Thats interesting, never thought of adding celery and carrots, might have to try this.

Tried making some pan pizza.

>>16585000
recipe is pretty freestyle

>start with one large cucumber or three lebanese cucumbers
>smash it along the length of it with the flat side of a cleaver or chefs knife. you don't want it completely obliterated, just crushed so you can get the sauce in there
>then cut the smashed cucumber at 45 degrees, into 1~2cm long pieces
>place cucumber in bowl and add 2 teaspoons table salt to draw out moisture, leave in fridge for ~10 mins

for sauce
>peel and crush 2~3 cloves garlic (not minced, a garlic press or mortar and pestle is ideal)
>add 1/2 tsp granulated sugar
>add 1/2 teaspoon light soy sauce
>add 1 teaspoon sesame oil
>add 1 tablespoon chilli oil (i like lao gan ma)
>add 1 tablespoon rice vinegar like chinkiang

drain water for cucumbers, add sauce and a few coriander leaves and toss to coat. you can also add untoasted sesame seeds but i ran out

>>16585024
is this pretty typical panchan? I think that's how you spell it.

>>16585000
>everything okay anon?
I have been very lazy for the past months. I think I'm very tired of routine.
>Monday to Friday get up at 11am, drink instant coffee (I prepare it without even leaving the bed)
>Shower, get dressed and grab my items in a hurry to show up at 12pm or before for work (food delivery) until 3:30pm
>Arrive home, jerk off, do stuff here and ther, jerk off again, eat, go to sleep
>Exercise 3x week at home despite I'm a smoker which makes it way harder, and I can't stop because I need to deal with stress caused by job
I think I need to go on a vacation and come back refreshed

>>16585032
I think you mean banchan?
Which is Korean, this is Chinese but it's a street food classic, inescapable in summer

Currently cooking a whole chicken gai yang style, will post a pic when I'm done

>>16584015
i appreciate that you served an appropriate amount of sauce as opposed to the virgin drizzle often seen here.

>>16585036
>I think I need to go on a vacation and come back refreshed
Iktf

I just wanna go in the woods and fuck off for like a month.

>>16584015
>water
Faggo. With that food you need beers

>>16585246
i'm a sober alcoholic and haven't drank for 3 years.

>>16585248
Good for you. I am drunk now

>>16585251
I do miss it sometimes. I liked gin and cheap beer.

>>16585259
I'm on vodka and cheep beer now

>>16585263
based.

>>16584015
the cooking on that meat looks absolutely perfect

i'm confused by what you served it with though, basically, fancy but still somewhat trashy snack food, which is still relatively rich.

And the way you're eating the beautiful steak with an enormous bowl of dipping sauce lol, it's trashy as fuck.

>>16585267
It's hollandaise and I only used like a tiny fraction of it. I was eating by myself tonight and i'm not gonna foodfag it up just for /ck/

>>16584577
it's like an upside-down soup or something. that rules.

>>16585047
Gain yang done, made the requisite nam jim jaew to go with

>>16585299
Last thing off the BBQ - smoked aubergines
Gonna make yum makeua yao with them later

>>16585248
Good for you anon, that’s great

>>16585299

based thai

>>16584015
My god you are unbelievably fat. That's an ungodly amount of meat for one meal.

>>16585381
I ate like 1/3rd of the steak. There is such a thing as self control lol

>>16585272
The hollandaise is cool, but the toasts look gross. Tomatoes and basil only, fagola. It's like a vegetarian casserole with grated cheese on toast. A warm baguette and some asparagus bc you can dip those in hollandaise. A vinaigrette salad would be best. Something with acid to cut/compliment the rich steak, hollandaise and sweet scallops. Baguette and spinach or spring mix salad with vinaigrette. Tomato Bruschetta w/ balsamic would also have been good. I'm sorry, critiquing food is a compulsion with me. If you enjoyed the meal that's all that matters.

>>16585381
My god you are unbelievably gay. That's an ungodly amount of faggotry for one post.

>>16585566
See >>16585441
Even he had enough brains not to eat that much fucking meat at once.

>>16584015
Rice pudding with almond milk.

>>16585691
that's disgusting

>>16585719
Well it came out near perfect and tasted delicious.

>>16585730
you sound like a fat retard

>>16585730
fat retard

>>16585691
why not regular milk? where is the browned butter and sugar cinnamon?

the chinese and thai dishes in here are based
recently i have been making more italian and french-ish stuff. lots of photos of pasta on my cutting board with a piece of parmigiano

>>16585848
took 1 wombok's worth of kimchi to work and it disappeared in a week. ordered more ingredients through work (food manufacturing) to make a double batch

>>16585854
this is maybe my sloppest recent dish. also made a couple of messy nicoise-y salads that are even less photogenic though

>>16585856
also very into mise en place photos recently lol. this was a really delicious lunch. garlic breadcrumbs, small tomatoes, tuna, parsley

>>16585862
ditali(ni) are my favourite for pasta e ceci but sometimes i just don't have them

>>16585869
probably the least appetising photo i have. made a garlic/anchovy/oregano mayonnaise to dress steamed cauliflower and boiled eggs with

>>16585874
fatass way to eat vegetables

>>16585874
>>16585882
Not even vegetables anymore

>>16585882
last one. interestingly the japanese recipe i found for this kabocha is basically the same method i used for the first pic i posted
- infuse chilli (and sage + garlic for the italian) into (olive) oil
- add sliced pumpkin
- add a liquid (sake or white wine) and put a lid on
- then either add miso/sake mixed or pasta water and pasta
the pasta sauce one was just cooked longer so you can mash it up. both great ways to eat it

>>16585895
the salad one was lighter than it looks, but yeah. gratin especially is very fatty

>>16585848
>the chinese and thai dishes in here are based
Thanks, those are all mine!
>>16585308
yum makeua yao as promised
Hard to make a bunch of eggplant mush look photogenic - idk why it came out so blurry though?
>>16585902
I love kabocha simmered in dashi w/ some sake, mirin and soy, one of my favourite nimono dishes
Great posts all around Anon!

thanks anons!
i would like to go back to thai food - it was my everyday food for about a year maybe 4 years ago. mostly thai and chinese. maybe i will go back to it when i'm not locked down and can access ingredients again

>>16586101
Based literal fucking retard

Crab stuffed shrimp. Was pretty good but not really worth the effort

>>16584015
Looks like a shit steak you boiled in a bag then blasted to a crisp. Also doesn’t look like bearnaise unless you prepared it from a power or something.

>>16586097
Thanks, man. Taken a couple of tries to really caramelize the crust, but I was pretty happy with the results!

>>16586765
looks great

I made a hot pocket, the bottom is hard as a rock though and I don't know why. Will probably just end up eating the top and ignoring the bottom.

>>16589586
you have to be a special kind of retarded to not even be able to heat up a fucking hot pocket

Leftover potatoes, corn, pork, chicken and some bacon tonight.

>>16589744
did you forget to cook it

>>16589764
It was all cooked in the past....I am just cleaning the fridge of leftovers...............

>>16589764
see >>16589741

>>16589770

>>16589744
