Norwegian (Scandi) Pancakes.
Simple as hell, but I couldn’t be bothered to do more today.
3dl of flour
5dl of milk
1/2tbs of salt
5 eggs
Some butter (or equivalent, but real butter makes all the difference).Mix flour/salt, whisk together with half the milk to prevent clots, then whisk in the second half of the milk. Whisk in the eggs. Allow to rest for 30min/1h.
Get a nice big pan, medium heat, and put some butter on it. Pour a ladel of mix in. You want it thin. When it starts to bubble properly (turn golden on the downside), flip and do the other side, which only takes a minute at most. Fold in half, set aside in something that’ll keep it warm. Keep fryin’ the bastards up.
Now its quite common to just have the pancakes with a sprinkle of sugar or a bit of jam. But I prefer mine savory, so it feels like a proper dinner.
Use some kind of meat (or veggie substitute), whatever sauce, some onions or what’s left in the fridge, fry it all up. I really like bacon myself. Anyway, put it on the pancake and roll it up. Eat it like a tortilla. (Edit: Sorta, they’re pretty thin and come apart easily, so best is to spread whatever filling you want in a layer over the whole thing, then roll 'em up so it ends up layered.)

Question: does a fried egg work on a BLT or does the L kinda ruin it? I mean, I’m gonna try anyway because I bought a whole head of L so there’s no reason not to spare a leaf for an experiment sandwich but I’m just asking.

@GF Fried egg works on EVERYTHING. Over easy, right. RIGHT?
-
@Tez Except in a sandwich. That’s how you get an Egg Banjo.
Egg Banjo: Bite into sandwich. Yolk drips down shirt. Sandwich-holding hand goes up and out of the way, other hand tries to brush yolk off. Egg Banjo.
-
@Tez I’m afraid not. I always cook my yolks hard. It’s not that runny yolks taste bad or give me texture issues or anything, but just something about the idea of eating oozy yellow fluid gacks me up.
-
@Evilgrayson Worth it.
@GF Never mind. I’m so sorry for your loss.

It totally works!
Also I’m with @Tez : Over easy. Not sunny-side, not hard! That perfect over easy is how it’s supposed to be done!

man, so many good new recipes here. I have a lot of cooking to do. But luckily I am here for two months, so now I have a bunch of recipes for that time!

I made KB’s potato lasagna. Here’s an imgur gallery of process for those who want to see!

@Meg I can dig the soyrizo. That stuff makes really good chorizo and eggs 'cause it’s not so greasy.

today has been kind of a shitty day. I took my adult kids to target (the two who were home from work came with me to get the 3rd, and then we did a Target run). By this time I am pretty exhausted and worn down. They all asked like 2 times what dinner plans were and I was really crabby and was like “I don’t freaking know yet, how about nacho hot dogs”. They actually liked that idea so much when they came back to the car they’d gotten tortilla chips and all the nacho toppings they could think of (they knew we had hotdogs and buns at home). And so that’s what we did. It ended up being pretty good and fed a crowd of hungry young men plus a bottomless pit 8 year old.
We grilled the hotdogs, toasted the buns, and then the following toppings were available:
Nacho cheese (like the cheese food type), salsa, pickled jalapenos, crushed tortilla chips, green onions, shredded pepper jack cheese, green and red hot sauces, bacon bits, olives, avocado slices, sour cream.
Now they are teasing me and calling it Frickin’ Nacho Hotdogs and have gotten the 8 year old to call it that now. I’m still a little crabby, but think I have pretty awesome kids.

@mietze That’s cute as heck.
Also, @Meg made your eggroll bowls for us (using fake meat, and picking out the mushrooms and setting to the side, because SOMEONE (it’s me) hates them).
The eggroll bowl was GOOD as heck.

@Meg ilu
It looks fantastic. At least you have the sense to like mushrooms, unlike someone else we could name. More to the point, I’ve been very curious what Impossible meat tastes like. I’ve watched videos about it, but I’ve never tried it.
-
@dvoraen It’s a 1:1 for replacement in almost all recipes, ad totally worth investigating, UNLESS YOU ARE A MONSTER WHO LIKES MUSHROOMS.
-
@dvoraen I had an Impossible Whopper once out of curiosity. I couldn’t tell the difference.

@dvoraen out of all the “meat” replacements, I think it is the best, personally. I really like the taste/texture for its own sake. The people in my family who aren’t vegan and hate “fake meat” actually like it as well, they’d rather have chili or taco meat from that than say ground turkey. It has great mouth feel if you’re looking for a very meaty texture, unlike most replacements.
There are certain dishes where it might be a little flat, especially next day stuff like cottage pie. I think adding just a smitge of marmite fixes that (depending on one’s taste, you do not need to add a lot)
Plus it is fun to cook because it browns up and sizzles and all that. IMO.
