[ramseames]

Ate at Farmer's Apprentice tonight.

I'm not sure if this is the best meal I've had in this city, although it was certainly up there. Easily the most interesting though.

Go on a sunday for the fixed menu, try a few cocktails. don't expect to be crazy full afterwards (not that you should care)

(missing the parsnips and the red beet, lamb shoulder was taken mid consumption)

here are some recipes

for mejadra:

250 g green or brown lentils
4 onions
a couple of spoons of flour
a cup of sunflower oil (or any frying oil is fine)
200 g basmati or long grain rice
some olive oil
350 ml water
spices: cumin, coriander, all spice, cinnamon, turmeric, black and cayenne pepper, and a little sugar (i usually just use a hawaj and shawarma mix and cayenne which incorporates most of this)

cook lentil mostly through but still have some bite. drain, leave alone. slice onions thin and sprinkle with flour and salt, mix until covered. fry in hot oil in batches until golden and let them drain in a lined colander, set aside. wipe out pan and add rice, olive oil, and spices--coat the rice. add lentils and water to rice, bring to boil, cover and let it simmer until the waters gone. let it sit for a good 10 minutes with lid off and a tea towel covering it. add half of fried onions to rice and put the rest on top.

for eggplant salad:
eggplant (dorf)
oil for frying
lemon juice
salt, pepper
sliced scallion, garlic, red pepper, green stuff (parsley or cilantro)

slice up eggplant, lay flat on a tea towel and sprinkle generously with salt. let it sit until moisture collects then take a towel and press it down. repeat with other side of slices. heat up shallow oil on medium/slight high, fry eggplant on each side until brown. let it sit on paper to drain excess oil. layer eggplant with veg, pepper, and fresh lemon in layers. it will make its own dressing if you chuck it in the fridge for a bit before serving. pickle some beets in the meantime. tabouli is also a good companion.

[straysheep]

1 cup flour : 2/3 cups dashi : 1.5-2 eggs ratio for the batter. Shred a bunch of cabbage (coleslaw for turbo lazy mode) and mix it into the dough with some chopped green onions, to the point where the dough is only barely holding the mixture together. Mix in literally anything you like - common ingredients are squid, shrimp, sweet potato/yam, cheese, yakisoba noodles, tofu, mochi, crack an egg on top, etc - and cook it on a flat griddle/pan on low-medium heat. Then top the entire thing with okonomiyaki sauce (a Japanese variant of worcestershire sauce I think), kewpie mayonnaise (this is somewhat important, western mayo tastes a bit different), bonito flakes (katsuobushi) and seaweed (aonori).

Recipe:

[fraxcell]

Yeah I've made spaghetti with scrambled eggs more times than I care to admit... the method that works best for me is to try and aim for a slightly under-cooked sauce and then put it on a low heat until it gets to where I want it.
To avoid scrambling the eggs, I make sure to allow time for the pan with the bacon in it to cool down a little bit once the bacon is done cooking. Then I add the hot spaghetti into the pan and start mixing in the sauce. Usually the heat of the pasta by itself isn't enough to cook the sauce all the way, so I'll turn the heat on low and keeping mixing everything around with a fork until the sauce just begins to go from watery to creamy.

You actually wrote the right amount of "shots" before "EVERYBODY"

You sir, have my respect
