Great recipes

Creamy Garlic Penne Pasta Recipe - Food.com

I haven't found a thread about food recipe on here, so I decided to create one!
As a student. This recipe cost me about 35$ just because I included mushrooms, ground beef and broccoli's into my meal!

If you have a great recipe, please don't hesitate to share!

I also do a pretty quick baked pork rib that i portion out for lunches

i make a container's worth of dry rub made up of:

Garlic powder
Onion Powder
Pepper
Salt
Sugar

Optional - cayenne pepper, paprika, other spices
Portioning is really up to you. Play around with it in small quantities and find a mix that you like.

Rub that stuff on the rib (i get mine from Costco, No Frills or Superstore, whichever is cheaper)

Get some liquid smoke, bit of Worcestershire sauce and sprinkle over meat. Then cover with whatever bbq sauce you fancy and bake a full rack covered with foil in a glass casserole at 325 for 1.5 - 2 hours and then at 350 with cover off for 10-15 minutes

I found that flipping is optional. But make sure you cover the meat with foil and let stand 10 minutes before you dig in to keep it nice and juicy.

Instant noodles, eggs, spam, kimchi on the side. Still hungry? Add rice to the broth after.

Now that's student life lol.

I haven't tried out the above recipe yet but I will later.

I had to go out and prep lunch tonight and it was tough finding out what is good and whats not. Too bad I found a great one tonight. If you are into fish. This is for you! Quick and easy and only under 35-50$ for 5 servings. That's lunch from Monday to Friday!! Really enjoyed it and my smaller sibling told me that its good too! Check it out!

...u don't have to eat ribs with your hands lol

if you bake this right you should be able to use a fork to have the meat fall off the bones tender.

I share this stir fry for students. Recipes 101

3 key parts: veggies, protein, sauce

Veggie:
Celery, carrot, , mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, red/orange/green peppers,

1) Key is to cut them like size of chopsticks
2) put in boiling hot water, when they are 80% done, take them out.
3) Rinse them in cold water to stop cooking.

Meat:
Chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, squid.
1) marinade for 20 min. with these parts below.
a) Mix these all together: soya sauce, salt & pepper, oil, sugar, water.


Sauce:

1) terayaki, satay, oyster, sweet & sour, garlic & red pepper, black pepper.

Step by step:
1) put oil, and fry the protein; when 50% done, take them out.
2) Do not wash the pan, throw in table spoons of sauce (high to medium high heat).
3) Throw in veggies and stir until veggies gets warm.
4) Throw in the protein and fry until everything is hot; serve.

This is the basics, yes there are "better" ways to do it but for now, get hte foundation down pat and you can start playing around with cashews, exotic spices etc.

People ask about this a lot, but I honestly don't know the reason behind it.

There are too many factors:
Protein & sauce vary the most; Urban fare versus, Price smart in Richmond or even crystal mall will different in price by up to 30%



Lee Kum KEE itself can be from $3.75, but I buy at 3.00; tier 2 sauces would be $2.80

just a tip, dont over crowd the pan when you put your meat in or else you will just steam it on each other instead of making that sweet browning, also maybe veg to closer 70% (depending on how done you like them as well)

...........and instant noodles is food, if done right. I never use the flavour packets and add so much good stuff. Anyway, nice thread.

Anyone able to create the "wok hei" aka "breath of wok" or "wok power" using conventional home gas or electric stove top? I tried preheating wok longer, using peanut oil, cook stuff longer.... nothing works

over time the wok develops its own seasoning and/or flavour, give it time

I don't really have any recipes to share right now but I will say the one thing I've learned is to PUT FISH SAUCE IN EVERYTHING.

This goes for prettymuch anything meaty, like meat sauces (spaghetti, chili) and hamburger patties, etc. The umami it adds is better than soy sauce, msg, chicken powder, oyster sauce, etc. And it won't make anything taste like fish, don't worry
