A fun weekend dinner! Jac seasoned turkey breasts with salt and pepper then panfried them. She lightly toasted hot dog buns, then added mixed lettuce, a little mayonnaise and the turkey breasts to make sandwiches. She served the sandwiches with sliced fresh tomato, cucumber, carrot sticks and a handful of potato crisps. It looked like […]
My friend JetGirl who lives in Texas sent us a Carroll Shelby Chili Kit. On a recent cold evening, a bowl of chili and rice was perfect for dinner. Jac used turkey mince to make the chili. It was another delicious bowl and spoon meal. Since I am a chilli wuss, she made it mild. […]
A delicious dinner cooked by Jac: panfried turkey breast steaks served with two salads, coleslaw, and watermelon, white onion and mint salad. Regular readers will know that when it comes to chicken and turkey I prefer dark meat (thigh, drumstick) to white meat (breast) – but these turkey breast steaks were surprisingly succulent and tender. […
When I got home from work Jac gave me a cold drink and told me to take off my shoes, get into my home clothes and relax – she would be serving the starter very shortly. I sniffed the air and I thought I could smell mustard. As it turned out, it was mustard! She’d […]
This was a quick and easy dinner to prepare – panfried turkey breast schnitzels, bought from Woolworths, with salad and aioli. Jac panfried the turkey schnitzels, I helped assemble the salad and dollop aioli into sauce dishes. I cracked a little black pepper on the tomatoes. I’m sure you can imagine how crispy the schnitzels […]
This is the last of my Christmas 2009 posts! :D We ended up with leftover Christmas turkey, ham and prawns. We froze most of the ham but ate all the turkey and prawns over the next couple of days. This was my favourite dish cooked using the leftovers: a Christmas prawns and turkey noodle stir-fry. […]
This was a delicious rice noodle stir-fry Jac cooked, with sliced turkey steaks and pork steaks! She’d bought the turkey steaks and pork steaks fully intending to cook them up in whitey meals, but the hungry glutton she cooks for had a craving for something more Asian! She stir-fried the turkey and pork with bok […]
Jac asked me what I felt like eating for dinner, and I told her pasta bolognese. She said that was what she’d cook. For the next little while, we were each in our favourite rooms in the house – she, in the kitchen, cooking. Me, in my study on the computer. Some time later, she […]
Jac panfried crumbed turkey breast steaks until they were golden brown and super crispy. She served them with potato salad and sliced cucumber. She put peas and cubes of strasburg sausage in the potato salad. Only one other thing would’ve made this better – hard-boiled egg. But we didn’t think about that until we sat […]
Jac bought turkey bacon for a change, and fried it up with eggs for our breakfast. I had a couple of slices of turkey bacon with an egg (yep, over easy, also for a change – I usually have sunny side up), with two slices of fluffy fresh white bread, one spread thickly with kaya. […]
