Mushroom Stroganoff
1 oz butter 1 Onion, chopped 1 lb mushrooms (any type you like, a mixture is nice), cut into bite size chunks if necessary 1 tsp mustard 1 tsp tomato puree 1 tsp paprika powder 300 ml creme fraiche Melt the butter in a pan Fry the onions in the butter until they start going clear Add the mushrooms and stir fry until they start going soft Add the mustard, tomato puree, paprika and creme fraiche and stir all together, and cook over a gentle heat for another five to ten minutes, stirring frequently. Serve with rice, noodles or potatoes, or as a side vegetable with pork. |

you just found the right person. as a small starter, i love cherry tomatoes filled with macadamia puree: you need a cup of macadamia nuts, garlic (not much, about half a clove, you don't want it to overpower everything), lemon juice, parsley and some water. throw the nuts, parsley, lemon juice and garlic in a blender or food processor and let it go until it's a puree. you can thin it down with some water to make it a bit more mushy. slice the tops of the cherry tomatoes and scoop out the inside with a small spoon, then stuff with the puree. this also tastes great on pieces of fresh pepper. potatoes with feta and mint are a nice side dish. peel and dice some potatoes, cook them until they are done. meanwhile, heat oil in a pan and add a small onion, in slices. add the potaotes and fry for a few minutes, add salt & pepper. take it off the stove and add freshly chopped mint and crumbled feta, then sprinkle with lemon juice. i often make a quiche with goat cheese, you need about: 5 eggs crème fraiche chives sun dried tomatoes 1 clove of pressed garlic salt & pepper puff pastry (storebought is just fine, get enough to fill a round quiche mold) grated goat cheese soft goat cheese cherry tomatoes preheat the oven on 185° celcius beat the eggs with the cream, chives, sundried tomatoes, garlic, salt, pepper mix the soft cheese with the grated cheese and spread it over the unbaked puff pastry fill the rest of the mold with the egg mix slice the cherry tomatoes in half and put them on top, with the sliced half showing this all tastes great with a rucola-avocado-almond salad 1 small cauliflower 1 ripe avocado 1 ball of mozarella cheese rucola salad almonds vinegar, oil, salt and pepper wash the cauliflower and break it into little pieces dice the avocado and the mozarella roast the almonds in a hot pan (no oil! just toss them around real quick) wash the salad mix everything and make a nice vinnaigrette to go with it. these are just some ideas, but i've made all of these dishes for a lot of people and even non-vegetarians thought they were delicious ![]() |

Cool, this all looks good - quiche has never done it for me but I can certainly do something with the other bits. Unless anyone wants to better that (might as well make this more fun for y'all).

vegetarians or vegans? just wondering, because if they are vegans you'll have to forget anything to do with cheese, unless it's tofu.

Vegetarians. I'm often surprised, when cooking for vegans, that as well as having a fairly specialised diet, they also tend to be incredibly fussy eaters.

i'd be the worst vegan ever... with my love for cheese.
another reason to pray my animal-fats allergy never comes back (this caused me to be raised on soy milk and only have limited access to cheese, yoghurt or just about anything with full milk in it) seriously, toast with brie, apple and a bit of honey... yum yum yum |

pasta! yes! my favourite quickie pasta recipe is to make some pesto in the morning (so it get extra flavourish during the day) then later i slightly fry slices of tomato in a pan and then just cook the pasta, stir in the pesto and some soft goat cheese, along with the tomatoes. delicious and quick! |

yuck on jars! olive oil, basil, pine nuts, garlic, pepper, parmesan-- that's it for me i can substitute the pine nuts for walnuts, i'll even do parsley instead of basil in desperation, but jars? never! once upon a time i used to work on a shitty restaurant as a waiter. they fed us free. on my first day there i ordered some cappelletti with pesto and when i tasted it i made a face-- the cook asked if i didnt like it and i said that overheating up the pesto had ruined it. i was right, of course, but the cook made my life miserable from that day. oh yes, i'm a great diplomat! |

It's like when Americans say "I'll write you". Similarly, we say "cooking vegans". If they can fuck about with the language, so can we. In fact, we have more right.
I did a veg korma in the end. But thanks for all your suggestions. It was awesome, in spite of me not being able to find okra.

from what i've learned, you never really cook the pesto, since it would only separate the oil from the mix... stir it in at the end! what an ass cook. |

exactly. the idiot hated the pesto in a pan, then added the precooked pasta (the horror) to heat up in it. what a fucking dunce. i told him to heat it up in broth and then add the pesto. too much for his ego. i hated that job anyway. i don't have the mental constitution to be a waiter, especially in america. "hi! my name is ... and i'll be your waiter today! our specials are..."-- what cack. i'm like "what do you want". ha ha ha. seriously, i suck at smiling at people i dislike. anyway, back to recipes, my breakfast was a chili quinoa with a couple of fried eggs. quinoa rules. it goes like this, more or less: fry some onion at the bottom of a pot, when it's to the point you like add one crushed garlic clove, stir, then toss in a tablespoon of mild red chili powder and maybe 1/4 tsp of ground cumin. quickly (before it burns) toss in 1 cup of quinoa carefully rinsed (3-4 times if it's not pre-rinsed, just 1 time if it's pre-rinsed.). as it sizzles mix in the seasoning with the quinoa, add some herbs (say, a tbsp of oregano or what not). add 2 cups water, bring to a boil, then reduce temperature to a medium simmer & cover for 12 minutes. turn off & rest for 3 more. it's done. serve on a plate or bowl & top with fried or poached eggs with enough raw yolk to mix into the thing. could serve 4 people but i eat for 3. it's not exactly refined cooking but it's hearty and satisfying and has lots of proteins. might go well with some fried sweet potatos on the side for extra-carbos if you're doing hard labor. |

Quinoa really is several thousand sorts of win.
