I can cook!

in #food7 years ago

Lol yeah can you believe it? Onetime i made a grilled cheese for my pregnant wife..somehow burned it. She was trying to eat it while laughing and crying, pregnancy is weird. 😅

Today though, I prepared a recipe that @cryptopie posted here

I had to alter some of the marinade some. So here is ingredients I used:

  • Tumeric 1.5 Tablespoons
  • Fresh minced ginger 1/4 cup
  • Minced garlic 1.5 tablespoons

Since garlic and ginger wherent powder or liquid I cooked it down in light coconut oil.

I mixed all the spices with 2 cups of plain yogurt (thinner is better). I let that marinade for 4-5 hours then fried it in coconut oil.

Here is outcome...JPEG_20180903_175447.jpg

For the dip

  • I diced two beefsteak tomato's
  • half of a green pepper
  • quarter onion

In a pan I pretty much used all same ingredients in video..

  • sautee chili pepper
  • add 1.5 tablespoons of brown sugar (to taste)
  • extra ingredient - more ginger (couple pinches)

I was kind of dissappointed that dip turned out soupy. But... mixing the two together. Wow!

I am so happy I learned this recipe. Even the pickiest eater at the table enjoyed it!

And for that I am eternally grateful for the post cryptopie made! She has been soooo picky.

At least I know I can cook in the kitchen now, give the grill that much needed break.

Wait...for some reason I thought you were a woman all this time. I'm not sure why. Maybe because you mention your daughter and I made the assumption a mother is more likely to do that.

I'm having some picky eater woes in the highchair lately too. I think it's a toddler thing. At least I hope it is. Congrats on the success.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ok. I think I'm done...

Yeah its a toddler thing

Lool me too for the first month or so of following him

Oh good, it's not just me ;)

Um, I take you two didnt see me posting pictures of my wife and myself and child?

I'm pretty sure I did see a family picture at some point, but I thought you were the woman :)

No worries. I see you as a man through your writing now.

No worries at all, wife and I laughed but can see how you could think that.

No worries at all,
Wife and I laughed but can see
How you could think that.
