Bulgur, lamb cubes and carrot tarrator.
Chickpea bulgur and homemade strained garlic yogurt.
@fidangul - your dishes always look so good! I'm trying to do more with unfamiliar-to-me ingredients like bulgur. Are these just recipes you know or do you pull some off of a website/cookbook?3 -
@stephaniek511 these are ingredients I grew eating. I don’t really follow a recipe when cooking.
Generally speaking the basis of the majority of my food are: onion, green turkish peppers, tomato paste, olive oil, chilli flakes.
Add bulgur you have one dish. Add chickpeas or beans separately you have another. Or add any meat or lentils with the bulgur then you have another meal.
Bulgur would be the last thing you add at all times though. The cooking time is very quick.
If bulgur is going to be the side then I only cook it with butter.5 -
Fresh from the garden (my brother’s garden), roasted squash, zucchini and okra, resting on a bed of pasta, sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

It's still crazy with work hours so I'm cooking very simply. Chicken and snow pea stir fry with rice.

Grilled Italian sausage, pasta w/lemon ricotta and Caesar salad. The sausage was made in house at a butcher shop and on the bland side. The other butcher shop I go to makes it better. This is one of the worst gluten free pastas I've had but I hate to waste food so I'm trying to disguise the flavor. It's red lentil with ginger and beet. It starts out very red but after cooking it loses some color. I added lemon zest and juice to the ricotta and coated the pasta with it. In spite of it looking a little unappetizing it actually worked well to hide the awful taste of the pasta so I count it as a win.

Stuffed Green Bell Peppers. The lids are tomatoes.
Stuffing- rice and bulgur 50/50.
Onions, garlic, tomato paste, chilli flakes, cumin, sumac, dill, parsley, black pepper, the insides of the tomatoes (no waste) and olive oil.
I prefer to precook all the ingredients aside from the rice and bulgur to allow the flavours to be released. Mix in the dry rice and bulgur(you do not need to do 50/50. Either on its own is fine. I just felt like mixing today.) Place in a wide pan and cook in a shallow water bath with the lid on. Then if you prefer, like me, grill for the final touch but not necessary either.
Forgot to mention the Garlicky yogurt.6 -
Homemade chicken soup, with (don't read for the squeamish)... my fave, lots of hearts & stomachs.

Steamed artichokes with hollandaise to start followed by linguine aglio olio. Panna cotta for dessert. I reduced the fat by using 1 part cream to 2 parts milk.

Small steak, mushroom, onion & cheese (well, a blend of non-dairy cheeses) pizza. I'm allergic to many foods, sadly, so my diet is fairly limited.
Rolled out thinner dough so it baked up nice & crunchy & hard to see, but I fried highly seasoned steak strips to super crunch level, so although it's not the most visually impressive pizza I've made, it's one of the best tasting... I enjoyed every chewy crunch.
I'm newer to this... first time I used parchment paper when baking, as well.
