I've been just dying for Steak Frites!
Grilled/BBQ'd the Rib Eye Steak and Asparagus and Air Fried the frozen French Fries/Chips ... perfect!
(side note: I always slice our steak, chicken, etc. to make it look like you're getting more meat than you really are - cook's portion control hack )
I was just watching a fancy-pants cooking show where they went into some really haute cuisine restaurant and the chef actually said that frozen French Fries/Chips were the best
Love these things!!! 7 - 9 minutes - done!

Some chefs that do start from scratch actually par cook their fries, then freeze them before doing a double fry. Seems like a lot of work to me, so I buy Ore-Ida frozen fries and double fry them. Perfect!

Main Easter meal this evening.

Goats cheese wrapped in Serano and seared.

My signature beef cheeks.

And because we are grown ups and we can do whatever we like, Angel Delight.

Easter food with my 7 cheese Mac & cheese that I contributed with.

Ham-a-lam-a-ding-dong. Scalloped potatoes.

 

[medtran49]

Ramen noodle bowl.

Purchased beef broth cut with a little water, threw in some chunks of garlic and ginger, some star anise, and 1 whole clove. Boiled that for a while, then let it steep. Reheated to serve.

Ramen noodles boiled in salted water, then a few drops of sesame oil.

Sautéed shiitaki mushroom slices.

Roasted red bell slices.

Steamed baby bok choy.

Bean sprouts salad, boiled sprouts in salted water, drained, some microplaned garlic, toasted sesame seeds, sliced green onion, and a little sesame oil.

From the freezer, Asian cured and partially cooked pork belly, sliced, fried and crisped up.

One of the best Ramen bowls we've had in a long time.

Prawns in ‘lobster’ sauce:

Sichuan chilli beef skewers with cumin and fennel:

Stir-fried cabbage and capsicum in yellow bean sauce:

 

[caseydog]

I smoked some wings with charcoal and hickory wood. Seasoned with salt, pepper and granulated garlic. Brushed with some Stubb's Heat and Sweet BBQ sauce at the end of the cook.

What kind of capsicum is that? It looks like red bell pepper, from the size. But being a stir fried Asian looking dish, it could be any capsicum -- I would imagine a capsicum with some heat.
