Plantain Stuffed Chicken With Tamarind Sauce

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Spyce  

MY version got a 4 but if the plantains had been riper, it would have been a 5. DO make sure your plantains are nice & ripe, yellow with black spots & mushy. Mine were barely ripe, too starchy, soaked up lots of extra butter but the stuffing... — Elmotoo Nov 24, 2009

Spicy Pumpkin Custard Cups

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by PumpKIM  

The flavor was excellent. It was very easy to make. But it was overdone. And I was good & followed directions! I would recommend doubling the recipe & proceeding as indicated or cooking for less time. I like how it used sugar sub but didn't... — Elmotoo Nov 24, 2009

Tamarind Rice With Sesame Seeds

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Andtototoo!  

This is good. Nobody was bowled over. Turns out dh doesn't like fenugreek. Was I supposed to use 2 cups cooked rice or cook 2 cups of rice? I used 2c cooked. I wonder if it wouldn't be so strongly flavored if I had used more? Aside from... — Elmotoo Nov 24, 2009

LOVE IT! It's potato salad which, silly me, I didn't realize until it was made. Larger potatoes took a little longer. Delicious!! The vinaigrette is spot on! Made for My 3 Chefs 11/09. — Elmotoo Nov 24, 2009

Red Pepper Crusted Grilled New Potatoes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Suzanna Marie  

EXCELLENT! I actually cheated & 'grilled' with my cast iron skillet. Ah well. I still got a nice crunchy outside with a yummy spicy coating. We'll definitely make these again - perhaps next summer on the outside grill? lol. Made for My 3... — Elmotoo Nov 22, 2009

Masala Chai

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Kathy228  

Mmmmmm.....ahhhhhh.....this is delicious! The only 'problems' would be that proportionally, it's a lot of tea, which makes for a nice strong cuppa but can also lead to bitterness so I would recommend increasing the sugar. I made a big batch... — Elmotoo Nov 13, 2009

Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by barefootmommawv  

Welllll.... I give the recipe a 3 but the flavor a 5. It took over a hour to cook the sweet potatoes (they were big) plus I turned the heat up to 425F to hurry things along. The skins didn't like having their guts scooped out & shredded. But it... — Elmotoo Nov 11, 2009

Williamsburg Pumpkin Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Lalalark  

How simple is this??!! I generally stay away from cream of crap concoctions but this one worked well for us. I was too lazy to use 1/2 a can of pumpkin so I just added an extra can of water. I tried it with the nutmeg & it is glorious. But... — Elmotoo Nov 11, 2009

Braised New Potatoes With Thyme

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by sexymommalucas  

Very tasty, indeed! I might have used more than 1.5 lbs potatoes because I used 1 can broth plus 2 or more cans water and 2tsp oil disappeared! I used dried thyme with great success. A very easy & simple dish that obviously multiplies well. I... — Elmotoo Nov 11, 2009

What fun! I used 2 7.5oz canisters. I also added a bit of oregano & a bit extra cheese. Everyone enjoyed it but I thought it needed a little more... pizazz? Maybe extra oregano or black pepper added? I used a pastry brush to coat the pan and... — Elmotoo Nov 9, 2009

Posted by godsjoyfulkid  

Fast & omg soooo simple! I'm not sure how long I actually fried them. 3 plantains fit in my 12" skillet. I just let 'em cook until they were caramelized then I sprinled liberally with kosher salt. DIVINE! I wish we had more. 4 people got 5... — Elmotoo Nov 3, 2009

Baked Cheeses With Red Pepper Sauce

Posted by Karen Elizabeth  

This is really nice! My slices didn't like being flattened - perhaps just slice them thinner? The sauce is delicious & it's all so easy. I think 1 egg would have been enough. The breading amount was spot on. I wish the crust had been... — Elmotoo Nov 2, 2009
