Sesame Gouda Stuffed Naan with Honey

[ronniefein]

My brother and sister-in-law came over last night and no one wanted actual dinner. I had served a bunch of hors d’oeuvre and we stuffed ourselves on those. Big winner was these Naan pizzas, the recipe from my book, The Modern Kosher Kitchen, and is basically this quick and easy nibble: spread 1/2 cup mango chutney on two naan breads. Add some chopped cooked cauliflower. You can also add a little grated raw or cooked carrot (I didn’t yesterday), and top with grated mozzarella and Gouda cheese. Bake in a 400F oven for maybe 15 minutes. Cut and serve. That’s it! #naan #naanbread #naanpizza #naanpizzzas #horsd #horsdoeuvres #horsdoeuvre #quickandeasy #quickandeasyrecipe #quickandeasyrecipes https://www.instagram.com/p/CkYUtverkrS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hi! So, inspired by your twitter: what are you're favourite sandwiches? Especially ones you like to make yourself? Also, if you don't mind: you find any good recipes lately? have a nice day! I mean, I'm not the boss of you, but please?

I’ve talked before about these bacon and swiss chicken sandwiches, which genuinely made me see the face of god. I’m a sucker for honey mustard, and this recipe is so so good.

It’s pretty time-intensive to make, but this BLT recipe with Fried Tomatoes and Cilantro Lime Mayo is AMAZING, I wish I could make it more often. However, frying the bacon, and then breading and frying the tomatoes means you can’t whip this together on a whim.

I have gotten obsessed with carrozza, which is basically a mozzarella grilled cheese-slash-monte cristo. I’ve yet to make one I’m properly proud of, but it’s hard to screw up fried bread and cheese.

I make a lot of burgers, because they are part of the Midwest’s religion and Philly is not on the same page. So if I want a thick beef patty with sauteed mushrooms and slathered in a parmesan garlic sauce, a lamb burger stuffed with goat cheese, or even just a beer burger with gouda, I have to do it my own damn self.

And finally, one that will haunt me: a few weeks ago I went to the WXPN World Cafe and had their curry chicken sandwich---curry chicken in a lemon date yogurt sauce, with friend halloumi on naan. I have been trying to recreate it ever since.

The Jazz Age is brought to life once again with the newest Speakeasy on the block. The placid looking exteriors open doors to a plush lounge. They have a well stocked bar, rustic textures, antiques and luxurious use of velvet upholstery. Their cocktails are carefully crafted – Prohibition classics and a lot of twists. They also have a whole range of Winter treats as well. The food on the other hand ranges from a lot of twisted fusion food, Pan Indian delicacies and contemporary chomps.

We started with some of their exemplary cocktails – the Shade of Grey with black gin, campari, sweet vermouth and cream. Topped with activated charcoal, stir in and this cocktail had the most off beat flavor. Another cocktail that popped out was the Purple Haze – Vodka, lavender, lime, bitters and cranberry juice. Served in a kettle, a hint of floral aroma and an after taste of bitters. Also, have to mention their classic red wine sangria, the slight hint of spice is a must have.

Galauti Sliders – what new could have been introduced with galauti kebabs, and here comes the most awaited fusion. An open cocktail burger, tomato, onion ring, succulent galauti kebab topped with mint mayonnaise and olives. The bun could use a lot of work but an excellent prep. Burnt onion prawns – a house specialty, shrimps tossed with a sweet and chilly sauce, spring onions and burnt onions shreds. Perfect bar bite. Pulled Pork samosa – now don’t kill me but unless I see samosas with a meaty filling I don’t order it. A buttery puff pastry with a toothsome filling of pulled pork and served with a spicy mayo dip. Bengali crab cakes – minced crab meat made into soft patties and a crusty top, the brittle meat did not quite appeal to me. Petite Gouda Naans – mini naans have become too mainstream stuffed or topped with cheese. Stuffed with Gouda cheese and served with a sweet tomato and onion chutney. The naans needed to be a lot more cheesy to be impactful. Lots of molten cheese and this dish has the potential to become a hot bar bite.

Pesto Flatbread – hand stretched flat bread lathered with pesto sauce, sun dried tomatoes, olives, jalapeno, crispy onions and lots of cheese. Cut into slices, the freshness of greens and appetizing flatbread is most gratifying.

For mains, we tried the Spaghetti Mushroom Meatballs – spaghetti doe al dente, topped with chunky marinara sauce and topped with parmesan shavings. The button mushroom meatballs lent a very crunchy and titillating zest to the pasta. Prawn Moilee – Kerala style prawn curry, malabar paranthas, papadum and a spicy achar to complete the plate. A creamy coconut curry prawn topped with curry leaves was aromatic and lip smacking. The malabar paranthas could have been little more crispy but what an excellent dish!

Desserts included Hot Chocolate Bomb and Cheesecake with berry compote. The chocolate bomb was essentially a molten chocolate cake but the ganache was not hot enough to flow and rendered a brilliant dessert useless. The cheesecake was also a little more whipped but none the less quite tasty.
