Portobello mushroom caps sauteed in red wine, garlic and olive oil, topped with a stuffing of diced shrimp sauteed in olive oil with garlic, cilantro, green onion, roasted red pepper and some bread crumbs to bind it all together. Top with a slice of havarti and pop it under the broiler for a few minutes, side with fresh green salad and you've got a great dinner for the 4th game of the Stanley Cup!

Got the makings of French Onion Soup on the go this afternoon... not very summer-y, I know, but we were given a whole whack of onions... And we have some stale bread that needs to get used up, so this fits the bill. Add a fresh green salad and a cold beer and serve it on the deck and it'll be summer-y enough, methinks!

Mmm... I love shiitaki mushrooms!
Tonight is a cooking expedition! It is my first time making a Persian meal - rice with tahdeeg and sauteed chicken breast studded with marinated garlic and served with tahini and sumaq, served with a cilantro/olive loaf - can't wait to dig in!

It came out AMAZING!!!
Definitely want to make that one for some guests... I'm thinking of having a little Persian New Year gathering next spring. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't too difficult, either... Just takes a lot of steps to put together. It's on my favourites list now!

Mahogany roast chicken - baste a chicken with a sauce made of 2 tbs each of brown sugar, dry vermouth, and balsamic vinegar for the last 30 minutes of roasting - comes out dark brown and sooooo tasty!
Add a little water to deglaze the roasting pan and serve with the resulting sauce. Nom, nom, nom...

Yummy homemade granola - I haven't made any in quite some time. Gotta fix that.
Tonight I'm making roasted corn chowder with homemade black pepper-rosemary focaccia served with a German lager - perfect "after the rain storm" dinner.

yea!! it came out so good, i had 3 small bowls
i wouldn't let people serve themselves because i had to add the garnish to the bowls after i ladled out the soup... so i kept running from the living room to the kitchen as more people arrived. phew! worth the effort tho

Tonight I'm making a traditional Finnish dinner for my mom and dad - we are having tomaattikalakaaryleet and kurkkusalaatti - that's baked rolled trout will dill and fresh tomatoes and cucumber salad.
I'm missing a few umlauts in those above words, and yes, there is a reason I never learned how to speak Finnish!!!

Soudn like some good eats - I love both tilapia and white clam sauce! I almost got tilapia for our meal last night, but the trout fillets were a better shape for rolling.
I think there may be some pasta with white clam sauce in my near future - yum!
Tonight is a NY strip bbq's and served with salad and sauteed mushrooms, onions and garlic. Got the sautee pan on and I'm enjoying some red vino, gonna go add some to the pan as well!

Cooking always makes me feel better - and I have been meaning to make carrot-ginger soup, so thanks for the reminder!
Tonight we are trying to make Buffalo chicken wings - we got this gadget made by T-Fal that "deep fries" food using only a tbsp of oil. I'm hoping we can make some killer wings with it!!!
