It's hard to imagine a bread pudding as a savory dish, although I don't know why. After all, mac and cheese is really a pudding at heart. So, the recipe turned out ok? Was there cheese in it?

It had a layer of toasted bread cubes, a layer of asparagus, mushrooms and onion and then poured over it, milk, eggs and either chevre or feta and parmesan on top. The recipe said to use 4 cups of bread cubes, and I tried to follow that, but it baked a lot faster than the recipe said it would. If I ever make it again, I'll probably play around with the measurements.

The ingredient list sounds like it would make a good combo. I wonder if it would be equally good with rice or potatoes instead of bread crumbs?

I made sweet potatoes stuffed with broccoli and feta cheese. They looked kind of bad, but they tasted good. So ends my week of trying new recipes.

Tonight a favourite: Gruyere and red onion tart with broccoli. Have I mentioned that one before? We eat it a lot. Think I might tart up the broccoli with something but not sure what yet.

Polgannon Project Seriously, I'm still working on it.

No, you haven't mentioned that one at all. Anything with Gruyere has my attention. Sounds delicious!

Yes, it is yum isn't it? The tart is based on a recipe from the ever-reliable Hugh Fearnly Whittingstall, here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandst...all?INTCMP=SRCH
Last recipe on the page. I always thought HFW was a bit of a dick but he's a damnably good chef and his recipes are usually worth the effort. Some of the other Guardian food writers are also excellent, especially Yotam Ottolenghi (yum, yum, yum, yum, yum is usually the response to one of his recipes).

For the tart recipe, I don't always bother with the pastry (and won't today) but the caraway in with the onions is lovely. It goes brilliantly with a green salad and nice dressing (lemon-based or balsamic) and some cherry tomatoes though we'll have more suitable-for-winter broccoli tonight. I would have had asparagus but that's not good in winter and expensive at this time of year.

Polgannon Project Seriously, I'm still working on it.

Thanks so much for the recipe and all of the tips. Your suggestions for sides make it sound so lovely and balanced for colors and flavors. I could see serving it to company.

It is one of my favorites
I love it but always have to wait until we eat out, since I have no idea how to make the mustardy sauce. My steak also sucks but my husband can do great steak on a Weber

I've never had chateau briande, not even when I ate meat. I used to like steak au poivre and tried it with fish, but it wasn't quite right.


Tonight's supper was sauteed codfish with mushrooms, onions, and wine, steamed broccoli tossed with olive oil, escarole salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, onions, garlic, and basil and cheddar-cauliflower cream soup. Everything was delightful, especially the escarole.

I'm fairly certain that fancytalk refers to a food of some sort.


I made pan-fried swai with a really light lemon pepper dredge, buttery jasmine rice and fresh broccoli. Simple, but really satisfying.
I swear, the smell of rice cooking is intoxicating.

Our meals were fairly similar. I had to google "swai". The dredge sounds interesting.

I love the smell of cooking rice too and jasmine rice is some of the most fragrant. I also love basmati. I can eat rice (brown) plain with just a hint of salt.

So today I stared at my not to healthy patato thinking I want to nuke* this. My german side looked at the patato and was like just cook it, then you can weed out the bad parts who cares if you take out a lot of the good parts. The Irish side of laughed and said your irish you can deal with this; after all Irish are masters of the patato. Skin it and cook it that way.

Now anyone knows that a patater with out it skin and uncooked WILL turn brown. Just nuking it would have undesirable effects. So what I did was wrap it up in a wet paper towel nuke for six minutes take it out, whiped out the nuke that was by now very steamy. FYI a steamy nuke is a great oppertunity to clean it without any work. Then I rewet the cloth and put it in for another three minutes.

Before hand I diced some green olives and mixed some chopped garlic and sour cream. Slit the patater add green olives and sourcream then put on some pramasian cheese. YUM!



*Nuke as in microwave.
