2014 - Week 39 Cooking Results

Pumpkin and Chicken Curry (vaguely based on this)

So I looked at the recipe, kinda used it as a guide, but then went on a tangent.  So I had some leftover curry stuffs (red curry paste, Madras curry powder) and used those to create the curry flavor.  It ended up being really good.  I've been enjoying eating it for lunch as leftovers.

Egg & Sausage on open faced bagels

So the bagels we have aren't the best, but sometimes you just want a bagel.  These are a little on the tough side, making the combination a bit hard to eat (or even fork through).  Still good, just difficult to get through.

Pumpkin Mac & Cheese

So on the one hand I'm making mac and cheese (boiling water, making sauce) and on the other I decide to use up some leftover pork, onions, and then the homemade pumpkin puree. to combine together.  I took the finished large elbow noodles and stirred them in with the pumpkin puree / pork / onion mixture.  Then when the cheese sauce finished (combo of Prairie Breeze and Scharfe Maxx, with mustard and jalapeno powder (along with the normal flour, butter and Whole Milk)), I combined that, put it in my 9x13 lasagna pan, topped with ~6 oz of breadcrumbs combined with milted butter.  good stuffs.

Pork Burgers

Good buns, good pork good toppings.  Good stuffs.

Sloppy Sammys

Never the same twice, less spicy, but pretty good all the same.  Used a can of whole tomatoes that I had intended for pizza but started roasting tomatoes instead.  Worked out well.

Pizza!  (You will submit to me yeast!)

The dough is looking good, it has already risen quite a bit in the fridge and is out warming up for usage later today.  Of course that means it was delayed.  This means I probably had grabbed the normal yeast instead of the rapid rise yeast.  So that would at least explain it.
