It’s been a spectacular fall, and nothing is better on the grill then a little filet mignon rubbed with Barbarian’s Steak Spice. With simple mashed potatoes and sautéed asparagus.

Pork ‘N Beans Kick’n it old style
November 3rd, 2005 by dinner
This is something my Mom would make when I was a kid, except the chop is grilled and about 3 times the thickness and the rice is basmati instead of minute. Tastes every bit as good and maybe just a bit better.
Veal Roll with Veggies
November 1st, 2005 by dinner
This was a bit of an experiment, veal scaloppini seasoned and rolled with a stuffing of provolone cheese, sautéed spinach and onions and chopped pecans. The rolls where then breaded, fried and then finally baked in the oven. A simple sauce of red wine, veal stock and shallots also accompanies the rolls. For the starch we had fingerling parsley potatoes and sautéed asparagus. As experiments go, this one tasted pretty good!
Osso Buco Birthday Dinner
October 29th, 2005 by dinner
A four course dinner for my father inlaw’s birthday. We started with grilled portobello mushroom, and moved on to cream of asparagus soup with black truffles and truffle oil and before the main course a garden salad with miso dressing. To cleanse our palette he had a Raspberry Morte Subite, which was sweet and refereshing for the first three courses. Finally we had super tender veal shank with safron risotto and grilled zucchini marinated in balsamic vinegar.

Beef Stroganoff with Egg Noodles
October 19th, 2005 by dinner
Fall is definitely here, so it’s time for hardy dishes, and nothing’s better than beef stroganoff. I use a little paprika in the flour when coating the beef for a little kick and colour. The image is a little washed out, because of steam wafting off the dish, you know it’s fall when. The dish is topped with a little sour cream and fresh parsley.
