Overall I made 18 things in September.
September 1
Julia Child’s Provençal Potato Gratin (Side)
September 2
Pasta & Pomarola (Dinner)
With ground beef and onion.
September 6
Momofuku's Bo Ssam (Dinner)
I made this with my sister-in-law (who'd recommended this recipe in the first place). We made the Ginger-Scallion sauce, which I hadn't done before, and was great. I should have made that long ago.
September 10
Panko Pork Chops (Dinner)
Dry Sauteed String Beans (Side)
I've cooked this just once before
September 12
Pasta Alla Norma Sorta (Dinner)
I dug this - pretty easy, and good. The fresh tomatoes in the sauce tasted like summer. Everyone (everyone!) complained, but they mostly ate it so whatever. I'll be making this again.
The crispy prosciutto with this was pretty amazing. I'd definitely make that again.
September 13
Skillet Charred Broccolini (Side)
Unexpected hit. I didn't think it turned out that great, but it was all gobbled up.
I didn't have confit garlic, so I:
- sizzled whole (halved if large) garlic cloves in oil for a few
- took those out, added broccolini & salt
- after a minute, added 1/4 cup of water and covered for maybe 10 (this was too long, take the lid off before the broccolini wilts)
- increase heat to high, add chopped garlic cloves and a bit more oil
September 15
Crispy Chicken Thighs With Peppers, Capers and Olives (Dinner)
The chicken was great. I'm not sure if the peppers on the side were worth the effort, but I'd make the chicken again.
September 19
Crispy Tofu with Cashews and Blistered Snap Peas (Dinner)
I've cooked this 10 times before
Rice Bean Cheese Burrito (Kid's Lunch)
I took a page from my recent quesadillas, and fried the burritos a little bit after constructing them.
September 21
Greek-Style Chicken Kebabs with Lemon and Oregano (Dinner)
Zov's Hummus (Side)
I've cooked this 19 times before
