Had a most excellent dinner...those dinners that just, no matter their complexity or simplicity, have you feeling like "FUCK Fuckin yeah, that was the shit..."
In this case it was fairly simple. We threw in corn kernels, peas and zucchini batons were cooked together, lightly done with just a touch of seasoning and butter. The RIGHT amount of crunch left in the zucchinis without the raw edge, very small window there. Mushrooms and onions together, which were then added to a packet-mix roast meat gravy which we modified and added some other things to. Potatoes, parboiled, rolled in a little cooking oil and salt and into the oven. Rump steak, which the wife vac-seal-speed-marinaded in a special container we have, negativ'd all the oxygen around it, after putting on some worcestershire, salt and pepper. I took it out of the fridge, unsealed it and let it settle into it's original shape again. Cooked that on a v/hot pan, seared and left for about 2 minutes on either side and into the oven to finish with the potatoes. We let it sit for 5 minutes after that while the potatoes got mad crispy. Added the minimal bleed-out from the steak to our onion/mushroom gravy. Sliced the steak...moisture retention was excellent. Beautiful pink/red colour on a perfect rare-mid-rare, with just the right amoung of sear and caramelisation. Just threw all ^that^ on a plate. Seasoned a bit more. Had some bread, the gravy, some thoum, and chilli sauce along with it. and, of course those potatoes were just the madness...perfect inner texture, just the right amount of bite, crispy skin, that little pocket of air between the skin and the flesh...yow Gah. Fuckin' hell...just...perfect. Love co-op cooking.

Cooked a turkey. Was a good price at the market. Ten pounds, spiced it up inside, skin and under the skin with salt, pepper, garlic, onion, thyme and dill. Three & 1/2 hours, came out perfect. Came with a turkey gravy packet, and oh my, the gravy is really good. Froze part of it, will eat over a few days.

Made some salmon marinated in some olive oil with crushed red pepper flakes, minced dill, cracked sea salt and black pepper, with minced garlic. Seared meat side down until crispy on the outside. Then popped into an oven at 400 for 10 minutes. Comes out perfect everytime. Then made some mashed potatoes and fresh asparagus with a lemon aioli. Yummm.... lol

I'll jump on the Turkey Bandwagon as it seems like a lot of posts have turkey in them...lol.
I just walked across the street to a little Billiards, Bar and Grill for lunch. My drummer is a cook there so I made him fix me lunch :) Smoked Turkey Sandwich with Swiss Cheese and Mayo on Texas Toast, Fries and a Pickle.

Thai Fried Rice combination of beef, chicken , and shrimp from a neat little Thai restaurant . They are not greedy on the vegetables either , Definitely going with the mild version next go around though.
