Consider yourself pretty handy in the kitchen? Post a favourite recipe for something that you might use to impress a girlfriend/boyfriend/parent/ski lodge member.

When he says ski lodge member he means like a communal hostel member, not your run of the mill ski lodge you eat in.

Make some tartiflette. It's a casserole basically so it's easy as shit. Taters, bacon, cream, funky cheese, white wine. Classic european ski hut dish. Got the recipe from I Am Mod on here and made it. it's fuckin fantastic and super easy. Just a little tough finding the cheese.

Take 5 eggs and whip them up, add a little milk. Put them in pan and cook scambled eggs. While they are cooking add 2 slices of extra sharp cheddar and 3 strips of torn up bacon. Add ranch powder flavoring.=heaven

Im a pretty decent cook. I love being in an apartment over the dorms so I can cook. Probably my best meal I made last week was salmon filets seasoned with salt and pepper flakes, cooked in olive oil and garlic with asparagus spears. Then in a seperate pan I made a sauce with sriracha, cream, garlic, portobello mushrooms and onions. After a while of letting the sauce cook and getting the flavor from the mushrooms i pulled the mushrooms out, finished off sauteeing them with the salmon and asparagus in the olive oil and garlic. Plated the salmon, asparagus, and mushrooms, put the sauce over top, and it equaled a kick ass, wonderful blend of flavors.

Yeah, I like to cook.

Threads for possible multiple contributions. Im a student/part time chef and full time chef during summer and have a number of tasty food which can be made on a student budget. I am eventually planning on starting a blog but this could be a start when i get round to documenting my recipes

I'm the best cook in NSG.


But seriously, I worked for two years as a cook in a restaurant, so I know what's up. And I like cooking as well. Can pretty much make anything I want. One of the few things I don't suck at really...

eh i tend to think my food is good but most will think it's boring.  most dinners consist of a combination of the following

(baked/grilled/pan fried) seasoned piece of meat
(boiled/sauteed/roasted) vegetable(s)
optional: sweet potato (baked/fries/chips)

i no longer ever have to look up how to cook anything though.  to me that translates as "i can cook"

One of my favorite dish! But you need to use onions and the cheese has to be reblochon, but I don't know if you can find some outside of France though.
Also a raclette is super easy, there's no preparation at all, you just need to gather the ingredients, and it's awesome.
