Take away night is good old fish and chips and I might have a few steamed dim sims with soy sauce too.

It is so hot..... currently 42.6°C which is 108.7°F so we are having smoked chili and garlic marinated chicken wings cooked on the BBQ with some nice cool salad and then fruit salad and ice cream.

Oh well my niece lives in Mildura which is north Victoria on the border and the temp hit 46.2° C which is 115.2°F and they put up a sunshade and sat in the pool all day with the kids

 

Pot of Earl Grey tea...(had a late lunch)

 

The meal i made is really good.I came up with it my self.You can try it for your self takes about 10 minutes minus the water boiling.

When the water is boiling and the egg noodles are boiling turn it down a couple of notches so it does not over boil on to the stove.

Ok here is what i mixed together.

Half a Bag of Light 'n Fluffy Extra Wide Egg Noodles 12 oz bags.

Two or three cans of

Then mix about 6 hand fulls of colby jack cheese shredded.

This should feed at least 4 people.Or 1 for 2 or 3 days.

You get your meat,calcium,fiber.

I would make small pot first to see if you like it.It fills me up after two small bowls.

 

This is what is should look like when done.

Has a little spiciness to it.

 

Sandwich, ham on rye. Lettuce, tomato, chipotle sauce. Extra large cucumber sliced on the side.
yumm.

 

It looks like I should try it. Crackers, cornbread or what??

 

Eat it plain first.To see if you like it.Then try it with what ever you like.It only cost me less then 10 dollar's.

Rye bread toast, eggs over easy, little sausage links.

 

Going to Secret Men's Business tonight........this means a nice restaurant where 5 friends each bring an old bottles of wine from our cellars (I am bringing a 2001 Tahbilk Reserve Shiraz) and we eat some yummy food. We usually start with a cheese platter then go to a dozen oysters kilpatrick each then either eye filet or scotch filet steak and either salad or vegies then some kind of desert. I will probably have baked cheesecake or I may have tiramisu depends if someone brings a desert wine.......
My mouth is watering already

Cut the veggies into inch-sized chunks. Dump them into a Dutch oven.

Drizzle olive oil over the veggies. Grind black pepper over them, and scatter a layer of dried oregano over them. Stir.

Lay the chicken thighs on top of the veggies.

Pour three shot glasses' worth of water into the Dutch oven.

Put the lid on your Dutch oven and put it into your actual oven for 20-25 minutes.

Take the Dutch oven out and stir the contents. Thoroughly.

Put everything back in the actual oven for another 20-25 minutes.

A favourite way of cooking in South Africa!

Do you suppose that was a typo? She may have meant ,"dizzy" water??

 

Having take away fish & chips tonight........some nice chips and a nice piece of grilled shark mmmmm

 

Nope, regular water. Any other favorite kind of liquid goes in a glass next to the plate when it's time to eat.

 

Would love to try a traditional SA meal baked in a Chugunok!
Using Baked milk to make cakes n pies sounds interesting.
We often use a version of your Potjie out camping here in Oz......cant beat its tendernous and flavor over hot coals i reckon

 

Not in South Africa.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_oven#Chugunok

While the South African 'potjie' is round bottomed, the flat bottomed potjie is not that uncommon - especially for baking speciality breads. And it's actually better for browning meat and chicken prior to cooking.

No argument there.
For some unknown reason (to me at least) a potjie, when done right, is one of the two best ways (my opinion) to cook meat.

 

Invited to a Fish Dinner tonight. I like all the side dishes that go along with fish dinners but I don't eat fish.

 

Kat likes the Meow mix as a supplement to the fish.

 

Grilled fish, baked fish, fish on the coals, pickled or curried fish, home-made fish cakes, fish pie... I eat them all.

 

Actually I do not eat any type of seafood... none!!!!! But I do like the hush puppies.

 

It's a smell and taste issue Tim. Most people have some food they just don't like don't they? Mine is seafood. Kind of like I only like my steak well done, if I see pink I won't eat it.

 

For a moment I thought... I thought I should look this up...
Seems tasty!

Same here.

 

Spicy butter chicken.

 

It is cornmeal, egg, milk, onions and spices mixed, rolled into a ball and deep fried to golden brown on the outside, done but a bit moist on the inside. Takes the place of bread. A typical fish dinner around here is fried fish, with side dishes of white beans, potatoes, cold slaw, and hush puppies. I like everything in this dinner but the fish. I usually get chicken breast strips with it if I want meat.
