Mexican Street Corn Salad

I remembered to have a gentle hand with the lime juice which can overwhelm this. also do now use the lime flavored chili powder that my aunt got for me. So I used jalapeño powder and just under the amount of lime juice. At least one person at Shannon’s work potluck thing wanted to have the recipe, so that’s a win.

Grilled Harissa Lamb Burgers

They were note really grilled, but I did cook them off in a pan. I also served them with a bit of feta. They were good, not too hard to make, and a good use of lamb.

Dublin Coddle

This took a bit. The baking time was noted as being 1.25 hours but at 1.25 hours The potatoes were still mostly raw. but who cooks something at325? I jacked up the heat a bit (400) and let it go for another 20 minutes, and then the potatoes were soft enough to eat.

I used my mandolin for the first time in a bit, and it was nice to flow through the potatoes real quick. I had some Lucky George bangers that I ordered from the Coop and used those.

Good, savory, and maybe not so good for you, but delicious to eat. Hunh. Apparently Irish bangers contain eggs, while English ones tend to not. I wonder if you could actually make those at a normal meat locker. Anyways, I wish I started earlier like I told my wife I would, but I got distracted as I am often am.
