:bump: :D

Need more recipes. Who has something good for dinner & relatively simple (with chicken or beef preferably).

\kthanxbai!

*do an absorption boil of about a cup or 2 of rice (absorption for those who may not know is 1.5 times the water to rice. so 1 cup rice + 1.5 cups water) bring to boil then simmer on the lowest heat possible with lid on for 15 minutes or until all absorbed.
*get about 700gm (depending on how many people you're feeding) of skinless chicken breast. Cut it into thick slab sizes (or whatever) and start browning in a pan. brown the chicken with onion flakes or diced onion, so it gets all brown and overdone. chuck in a healthy dose of chopped red capsicum - as much as you feel like eating, really. sprinkle with dried italian herbs.
*the rice - now you want to pour some dried italian herbs on this too and stir in 1 chicken stock cube and a vege stock cube. don't add water. grind on some cracked pepper. stir really well and then fill the rest of the pot with shredded spinach. let it cook down, once done it is all ready to serve up.


ok, so i made this up the other day and it lacks a name, proper measurements and many other things - but it IS absolutely delicious. i may make it again today, except i don't have anymore capsicum or spinach. :( i spose i could use carrot and stuff. be careful the rice doesn't burn with this.

I find many things wrong with your efforts here.....

Having just spent the last 3 nights making brule, creme anglaise, pastry cream, mousse, ice cream, and flan in massive quantities, I gotta say I don't like this recipe :yikes: (all of the above are basically the same thing, it's just a matter of how you cook it and what you add to it at the end).

Poke flan with a fork :eek: Just give it a shake after 45 minutes. If it's not liquidy in the middle of the pan, it's done. One your flan is cool, flip it over onto a plate and watch the caramel drip all over the side :yum:

One change....add water to your sugar before you cook it, not after. :no: :yikes: Probably a 3 to 1 ratio of sugar over water. Without water you're going to get nothing but a huge burnt mess to clean up on the bottom of your pot. A tablespoon or so of corn syrup will help to make sure your sugar won't crystallize on you. Cook until you get a light caramel color. The liquid will be about 240 degrees so be careful! :wink: Immediately place the caramel into the pan you're going to use to cook your flan in. Hot sugar continues to cook even when it's not on heat so it's best to work quickly to get it out of the pot and into the pan. Oh and never ever stir cooking sugar. You'll crystallze it for sure. Pour sugar in a pot with water, wash down the sides of the pot with your hand and obviously some water. After you turn on the stove, don't touch the pot with any tool for any reason! Just let it cook to a nice light caramel color and you're done.
