FIRST DISH THAT I HAVE COOKED IN MY NEW CAST IRON PAN

feel free to lurk, comment and rate!

I used beef chuck (i dont know the direct translation, google translated it to "entrecote"), approx. 450g of it.

[Anonymous No.5380784]

so here we go...

seasoned the meat with salt and pepper, also did put a little bit of flour on it so that it helps to thicken the sauce that it will be cooked in.

[Anonymous No.5380790]

i cut the potatoes into bite-size pieces, i used only two

you truly cant find a non-bio asparagus at this season in my country
>>5380799
what do you mean?

meanwhile, browning the meat..

[Anonymous No.5380837]

>>5380799
You scared OP off. I actually wanted to see how it turned out.

[Anonymous No.5380840]

since it was the first time i cooked something with it ever, a little bit of the meat (but i think it was mainly the flour) got stuck to the bottom.

odkial si bratu?

[Anonymous No.5380852]

i took out the browned meat, put it on a separate plate and i melted those caramelized bits in some butter

[Anonymous No.5380861]

>>5380843

>>5380844

i threw there some onion with a little bit of salt, it has been cooking on the residual heat since i took out the first cut of meat and it was still VERY hot.

hlavne davaj bacha nech tam do toho rozpaleneho nenalejes nieco studene lebo as ti panvica moze velice rychle zmenit na srapnelovu bombu

[Anonymous No.5380883]

>>5380868
jasne, to mam nastudovane, viem ze je to celkom krehky material, dakujem za radu.
neviem ci mas nieco podobne ale rozhodne odpocuram, nikdy som na lepsom riade nevaril.

i have put the cast iron pan with the onion into 150 C oven, after 10 minutes i put in some cumin seeds (for the potatoes), red paprika and cayenne pepper

[Anonymous No.5380886]

ja mam liatinovy hrnec, v nom sa perfektne spravi ryza a aj liatinovy wok, to je najlepsia vec na svete, ale tazka krava. A umyvam to rucne lebo sa mi zda ze tie chemikalie do umyvaciek su moc agresivne a ako keby to korodovalo

[Anonymous No.5380889]

this is how the onion looks like after 40 minutes, i added 2 cloves of garlic to it 5 minutes before taking this picture.

[Anonymous No.5380891]

>>5380886
odkial si objednaval? ja som sa rozhodoval strasne dlho, objednaval som nakoniec z ceska

I added a little bit of tomato paste to the onion to help enhaning the meatiness

[Anonymous No.5380894]

>>5380891

on top of that go sligthly salted potatoes with small ammount of pepper (enough seasoning in the dish already)

[Anonymous No.5380903]

>>5380891
par rokov dozadu som v Trencine v jednom obchode kupil, ale ti uz zavreli... Ak sa ti da, tak v Metre mavaju tento liatinovy riad za celkom rozumnu cenu

[Anonymous No.5380933]

>>5380903
v Metre som hladal a marne..

I put the meat on top of the potatoes, covered it like this with stock and put it in the 150 C oven for 2 hours (covered)

[Anonymous No.5380958]

after 1,5 hours i started preparing the side dish - rice with asparagus (not really a risotto, no wine and parmesan)

Here is the peeled asparagus without stems

[Anonymous No.5380974]

you cook entrecote for about 1,5 hours?

und brühe aus dem glas..

>>5380974
i said its chuck and that only google translator translated it as entrecote, it actually comes from the part underneath it.

I sauteed a small onion in a lot of butter and olive oil, after it got glossy i added one cup of rice and diced asparagus, after 2 mintues i added 2 cups of boiling water and covered it with a lid

[Anonymous No.5381021]

almost done

[Anonymous No.5381033]

meat is done aswell!

[Anonymous No.5381074]

Are you going to plate it?

[Anonymous No.5381088]

>>5380985
>potato and rice

[Anonymous No.5381096]

>>5381074
ye ye, here it comes

i know that rice is done perfectly when it slowly falls apart after i try to arange it with this thing

[Anonymous No.5381100]

And the finished dish.

I squished the potato and mixed it with the sauce and the rice, the meat was very tender and the rice filled with small pieces of asparagus mixed with this gravy worked very very very well.

i hope i entertained you for atleast a moment

[Anonymous No.5381124]

>>5381100
a lot of starch and not enough veg, would still eat everything on an empty stomach though.

[Anonymous No.5381141]

>>5381100
Looks like a halfway decent meal. Would eat.

thank you! what would you add if i may ask?

[Anonymous No.5381300]

>>5380834
Why even use cast iron if you aren't going to get a good sear going?

Searing is like the only thing pleb iron pans are good for.

it was my first time ever using it, so the parts that "browned" got actually stuck to the bottom, you can see it on the pics.
also, i doubt you have ever tried a real high quality cast iron pan, otherwise you wouldnt type a bs like that

Unless you are poor, camping, Alton Browns gay lover, or living on the Oregon trail cast iron is never a high quality option.

high quality cast iron pans dont go under 60 EUR per piece
i only wonder what are you cooking on, probably some "high-tech" walmart teflon pan

[Anonymous No.5381325]

Is Slovakia a good country for sex tourism? I'm planning a eurotrip and I want to hit the countries with the easiest and hottest bitches. Point me in the right direction.

[Anonymous No.5381328]

>>5381321
For anything other than searing meat, I would rather use that walmart teflon pan than cast iron.

If you're going to spend 60eur on a searing pan, get stainless steel. That way you can stop pretending to be an artisan faggot because you spend your weekends seasoning your pan.

No shame in buying a 5 eur cast iron pan at a yard sale if you're poor though.

[Anonymous No.5381330]

>>5381325
searing meat lol

[Anonymous No.5381401]

>>5381328
I already have stainless steel pots of high quality (Berghoff, 25 yr warranty), and i would go for le creuset anyday.
I am a business man, i dont work 8 hours each day, so i like to do things around my house - i dont mind spending a whole day seasoning a cast iron pan.
Since i operate mainly in the food import/export business, i know that i have to be very cautious choosing what do i eat and what do i use to prepare my food. Those things are however way beyond your mind and your current problems.

>>5381325
no, its not, czech/poland is better for this. girls from slovakia are "exported" to austria, where they obviously cost more.

why... why did you do this?

[Anonymous No.5382906]

Looks OK, would eat but I don't understand cooking onions for 40 minutes.
After 2 hours in an oven the onions pretty much dissolve into the sauce anyway.

[Anonymous No.5383175]

>>5382906
Wanted to form a base sauce. As you can see, it didnt dissolve.

[Anonymous No.5383190]

Louie CK, would watch but I don't understand watching comedy for 40 minutes.
After a 2 hour special the jokes pretty much dissolve into the sauce anyway.
