Re: What's everyone cooking this week?
Last night was something quick I hadn't made in years. I keep forgetting that there's tinned tuna in the cupboard. Sauteed veg (mushroom, courgette, onion, carrot, tomato, spinach). Tuna, capers and lots of lemon juice and white pepper. Cooked pasta. All mixed together in the veg pan with a good handful of grated cheddar lightly stirred in at the end. So delicious I didn't want the last mouthful to come. Simple is so good sometimes!
Re: What's everyone cooking this week?
What I've been really fancying is a spicy kidney bean veggie burger in a bun with frites, but as I don't have any said beans, I've ordered some. It must be a lockdown thing since bun burgers are a rare choice.
Well done on the puffy brioche baps ZeroCook
So, instead, like Earthmaiden, an easy one today of the smaller cooked prawns (freezer) made coconutty with c. oil and block cream c. plus garlic/shallot/chilli/dairy cream/brandy for sauce with rice.
Or might use rum, being spoilt for choice with leftover Christmas booze which I bought intending to attempt home-made liqueurs but liqueurs were much cheaper just to buy when at serious offer prices. None of those bought liqueurs left

Renee - ouch! I love chili but I've never taken to Sriracha sauce. Just too damm hot. Korean chile flakes and pastes are generally much milder and more flavorful than Thai which tend to be incendiary. IMO I think it was a mistake to call for sriracha sauce (Thai) in a kimchi (Korean) recipe.
You may have found a solution by now but I might divide the jar contents liquid and all, rinse off one half (in lightly salted water perhaps) and recombine with the other half, maybe adding back up to half of the flavouring ingredients if needed. If still too hot, repeat. Don't toss that kimchi!

Zero Cook, I am so sorry, but I have only just seen your kind reply to my query! Goodness me, how time does fly! I still haven't used that kimchi, so will follow your advice. Many thanks.
Re: What's everyone cooking this week?
Ha ha! I'm sure that it won't have mellowed over the years, but you never know!
In the meantime, I did buy a tub of Vadasz Raw Kimchi, naturally fermented, live culture, but I haven't started it yet ... maybe tomorrow!!

No problemo, Renee. Have a taste or get someone else to! I have kimchi a couple of years old in the fridge. Still good. Or just toss it and start over. Sometimes things just need to go.
And wow, has it really been that long since posting on here??
Adobo marinated pan fried Swordfish couple nights ago - I always like a piece of serious fish when it goes on sale - can't be paying silly prices otherwise. That's just me! Forgot to make the radicchio salad w. balsamic and pomegranate molasses dressing to go with it tho, so did that last night, remajon style with oranges along with sweet Italian sausage, sizzled. Easy cooking for a hot day.
When it gets hot, another good salad is Greek style watermelon & feta etc. On the menu for sometime soon.
Also on the upcoming menu, ravioli, some with pumpkin and cheese stuffing, some filled with the contents of an extra Italian sausage I got for the purpose. Was just eying the ravioli maker I bought during first lockdown and not used much since last year.

Re: What's everyone cooking this week?
Watermelon and feta sounds a lovely combination for hot weather! Thanks for the dressing idea, because I do have pomegranate molasses, which I use for Muhumara. I think that I might have got that idea from you many years ago!
Nothing exciting tonight because I've been out for most of the day. I'm having a leftover smoked salmon fillet, having cooked two of them last night, with potato salad, tomatoes and two different varieties of lettuce. A quick and easy meal.
