Well i havent cooked in a few months being at a dorm, but I regularly cook these otherwise:
Fried Japanese-Style tofu: 1-2 blocks of extra firm tofu A large quantity of a base sauce such as Soy Sauce 3-5 tablespoons of sweet thai chile sauce 3 tablespoons of Lizano® sauce 5 drops of lime juice Several cloves of fresh minced or pressed garlic Lots of flour, a carton of egg and Panko Frying oil 1. Drain tofu, wrap in paper towel and place heavy skillet on top of tofu. Leave until towels are soaked, repeat until tofu is just moist enough to not crumble.2. Slice tofu into squares, whatever size is desired3. Combine all sauce and garlic in large plastic bag, add tofu and shake gently.4. Leave in fridge for at least 5 hours, but up to a day5. Remove tofu, strain marinade and set aside6. Coat tofu in flour, egg and panko in that order7. Fry in a hot skillet or wok until golden brown, turning once.8. Remove tofu, let cool for 3 mins, serve with sauce and fried plantain.
Dunno if I have many pics of food I make. I have a few things I make repeatedly though. -fudge brownies from scratch -buttermilk biscuits from scratch -sauteed cubed chicken breast in herbs, lemon pepper, and olive oil -spaghetti (using traditional Prego sauce and chopped hamburger) -brownie pie
French toast looks good, but i don't eat egg based dishes or things made with mashed potato.
I also do a Mango Chicken curry: 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 medium sweet red pepper, julienned 2 tsp. canola oil 1 1/2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks 1 tbs. curry powder 2 tsp. minced fresh ginger 1 tsp. minced garlic1/2 tsp. salt1 fresh habenero1-2 cup chopped peeled mango3/4 cup reduced-fat coconut milk2 tbs. tomato paste1. In large skillet, sauté onion and red pepper in oil 2 to 4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add chicken, curry, ginger, garlic, salt, and habenero. Cook and stir 5 minutes.2.Stir in mango, coconut milk, and tomato paste; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 minutes or until chicken juices run clear.Its based on a Carribean curry, because Indian and Japanese curry don't generally use fruit.As far as my food preferences go, I don't like beef in a whole lot of things, i.e. I eat pasta with plain marinara usually, and I don't consume beef and dairy together. When I eat beef I like it in Fajita, stir-fry and grilled with a baked potato and lots of veggies.
