Broiled NY Strip, Roasted Fingerling Potatoes and Garlicky Chard


Ok since I am totally behind and want to catch up I am going just post a picture to remind my self of what we made.  It wasn't like I followed a recipe.  I wanted to use the chard tonight, so I made it like I make the garlicky spinach for my Italian Burgers.  To go with it, I make my regular recipe or broiled steak, roasted some potatoes and used some leftover miso butter I had in the fridge as a sauce for the meat.  It was good, we all liked it and even the chard suspicious, liked it.

Tranches de Jambon a la Creme (Ham Slices in Fresh Cream Sauce)

Image
This Julia Child recipe immediately follows the Ham in Madeira sauce (10/25/11) that we made before and LOVED!  In the into to this recipe Julia says that "this famous recipe is the same idea as the preceding one, but with a richer, more delicate sauce."  Well it was indeed very similar, but I think that we all liked the first one better.  The main difference is that the first sauce had ham stock in it; it could be, however, that the ham we used this time was smokier in flavor which made it into the sauce.  Either way it was good, but next time we will make the first version. Tranches de Jambon a la Creme (Ham Slices in Fresh Cream Sauce) 3 lbs of cooked ham, sliced 1/4" thick 2 Tb butter 1 Tb oil 2 Tb shallots(or green onions), chopped 2/3 cup Madeira or Port 3 Tb cognac 2 cups whipping cream 2 Tb Dijon Mustard mixed with 1 Tb tomato paste and 2 Tb whipping cream Big Pinch of Black Pepper Trim off any excess fat on the ham and pat dry with paper t...

Pork Schnitzel with Dill Cream Sauce

Image
I am not the biggest fan of pork chops. I like pork tenderloin, bacon, ham, etc, but chops not so much. I do dig a good pan sauce however so I still was kind of excited. I do like good schnitzel, yes pork schnitzel, but this recipe did not produce that wonderful schnitzel I like. The sauce was pretty yummy and the boys didn't complain about the s so it must be my issues (again:).  My husband picked it off Pinterest and since it was from allrecipes.com I have no problem posting it here. (I am always a little concerned about allrecipes. I have had a few really good recipes, several fixable and a few bad recipes from them.)  I totally forgot about sides when I was at the store, so I cooked a half a box of whole wheat pasta I had cluttering up the pantry and tossed it with a bit of butter.   (and then dill sauce ;) And I steamed some broccoli too.  The boys rated it a 4 & a 4.5, I am torn because the sauce was a 4.5 for sure, the pork more like a 3 for...

Ravioli In Mushroom-Walnut Cream Sauce

Image
I found this recipe in the to try file and it looked good, and was quick and easy. Perfect for meatless Monday. Now that mushrooms aren't a veto ingredient for my son, I was totally psyched to have this.  I searched for the source of this recipe, and i found it on the olive garden website. This wasn't where I got it from, but it read identical. While this wasn't an omg dish, I totally dug the heavy mushroom content.  I said 3.5. The boy, who still doesn't like mushrooms, said 2.5. My husband started out at rating it a 3, but when I saw him scraping his plate to get the last if the sauce, he agreed it was a 3.5.  I'm fully aware that my love and lack of mushrooms skewed me in favor of this dish. I made sure to stir the mushroom/walnut mixture. I was afraid it would burn the nuts. I think next time, I would start the mushrooms for a bit before I add the walnuts.  And the dish felt like it needed salt, until the end where it seemed all the parm was lurking, so I gu...
