#tasty and quick veggies recipes

[kcrossvine-art]

haiiii dungeon delvers! This is a quick one, gratefully both the materials and the dish-type are very close to their real life inspiration :D

As we speak, my favorite catgirl bestfolk is getting introduced to the anime and you haven no idea how much self control its taken to not immediately jump forward to be in sync with her, but theres SO many good recipes before we get there!!!

We will be making a Mandrake and Basilisk Omelet today!

(As always you can find the cooking instructions and full ingredient list under the break-)

MY NAMES CROSS NOW LETS COOK LIKE ANIMALS

SO, “what goes into a Mandrake and Basilisk Omelet?” YOU MIGHT ASKIts made from the egg of a basilisk, which isnt a large chicken egg but instead a large snake egg. Oblong shape, soft leather texture, and no eggwhites just yolk.

A large daikon

½ lbs fatty bacon

Shallots

Garlic

Chicken eggs

Salt

Pepper

Arugula (for garnishing)

OPTIONAL; ketchup/hot sauce :)

You could try cooking this using actual snake eggs, but theyre hard to come by and reportedly quite bland compared to chicken eggs. I tried getting my hands on an ostrich egg for the pizzaz of it all. The zoo lady was kind in her dismissal.

AND, “what does a Mandrake and Basilisk Omelet taste like?” YOU MIGHT ASKOmelettes are standard fair but here we cook them like a french omelette and wrap it up like a burrito at the end.

Wetter eggs than im used to ( <- american)

Daikon and bacon r very tasty together

They end up having the same texture almost

Intensely savory. Heavy on the tummy

Chopped green onions would bring more levity to the filling

Ketchup pairs well

(but i prefer medium hot sauce)

Dark coffee pairs well

The acidity of the above 3 is what makes them work with this nutrient Dense dish

. In the show, decapitated mandrakes are more bitter than mandrakes left 'whole'. If you want that difference, using sweet/sour sauce on some of the daikon while it cooks will make the non-sauced daikon seem bitter by comparison. . Maybe ferment daikon too? . Adding a small amount of water with the bacon transfers the heat evenly, a small amount as to cook off before the fat/grease renders. Could also try cooking in the oven.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Consisting of a fluffy Basilisk egg omelet filled with minced Basilisk bacon and mandrake.If the mandrake used was killed with its 'head' still attached, it will be less bitter and more mellow" This dish is important as it marks the beginning of Senshi and Marcilles bonding, and the lead-up gives us our first glance into the school Falin and Marcille met at. Objectively the recipe is basic but it was challenging to write out.

Omelette making is muscle-memory, so having to learn the french variation and slow down felt like trying to ride a bike side-saddled.

It took about an hour and a half from laying out the ingredients, to eating the finished thing. I had to take a break in the middle of cutting veggies as my wrists are flaring up, so you could probably go faster unimpeded.

What would you rate this recipe out of 10?(with 1 being food that makes one physically sick and 10 being food that gives one a lust for life again.) Did you love it, did you hate it? What're your thoughts on what I could do different, and what would you have done instead?

🐁 ORIGINAL RESIPPY TEXT BELOW 🐁

Ingredients:

1 large daikon, chopped

½ lbs fatty bacon, chopped

2 shallots

3 cloves of garlic

3 Eggs

Salt

Pepper

Some arugula (for garnishing)

OPTIONAL; ketchup/hot sauce :)

Method:

Chop your bacon into roughly ½ inch squares. Cut off the ends of your daikon and cube the rest. Thinly dice your shallots and crush your garlic cloves.

Bring a cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Once at temp, carefully add your chopped bacon to the pan with a very small amount of water.

Add your chopped bacon and stir-fry until almost cooked.

Add your shallots and garlic. Cook for about a minute or until the shallots have softened.

Transfer the bacon, shallot, and garlic mix to a bowl. Set aside. Lower the cast iron skillet to medium heat.

Place your daikon cubes in the cast iron skillet, you should still have enough bacon grease. Add salt and cook until lightly browned on each side.

Add roughly 1 tablespoon of water. Lower heat and cover. Simmer for 2 minutes.

Once your daikon are softened, transfer to same bowl containing your bacon, shallots, and garlic.

Crack your eggs into a seperate bowl and whisk for 2 minutes until 'frothy' with no egg whites visible.

Bring the cast iron skillet back up to medium heat. There might not be enough bacon grease left, so feel free to add butter! If the butter browns you've gone too hot.

Pour your eggs into the skillet. Use a spatula to spread the eggs, scraping down the sides of the pan. Sprinkle salt and pepper in, to taste.

Once your eggs are mostly solid, pour the bacon, shallot, garlic, and daikon filling into the center. If it starts to separate- stop touching and let it rest. Gently fold the edges of the omelette overtop the filling.

Lay a few pieces of arugula on a plate, and flip your omelette onto it :) enjoy!

What does the perfect sandwich mean to you

I think for a lot of people (& I might be wrong, & that's okay) the "perfect sandwich" is a very specific, defined thing, presumably with their favourite ingredients made the same way every time. It's concrete. It's an object. It's a solidified idea. And that's fine. This isn't me going "well I'M different and BETTER", it's just different.

I think my idea of a "perfect sandwich" doesn't have any specific categorization and isn't some set recipe. This is vague, but a perfect sandwich is... exactly what I need, exactly when I needed it. That can be a lot of things! That's the point.

Back when I was in college there were some really good sandwich shops nearby, where I could get a banh mi or a submarine & have something filling and relatively cheap that I could carry around with me in between classes, or something quick I could get in the evening if I was working late or getting home late. (There was another sandwich place that was a bit of a walk away that did killer roasted veggie sandwiches, with eggplants and peppers and stuff. I think that was my favourite sandwich, which is different from the perfect sandwich. Also they closed down & got replaced by a shitty bakery at some point. It's probably a fine bakery, I'm just bitter.)

Now imagine it's the middle of summer and it's really damn hot and humid and I'm at home and I'm exhausted. Fully turned into a ghoul from the weather. I don't want to go to the nearby bakeries, let alone take an hour-and-some-change commute to the city, because it's fuckin hot!!!!! You know what else we got in these months, though? Tomatoes, usually!! Good tomatoes. It takes no effort to put tomato on bread or toast with a bit of salt and pepper, maybe a bit of mayo or balsamic, maybe a bit of a hard cheese. I can do that basically asleep. It tastes really fucking good, too.

When I was visiting my partner recently, she made us these little sandwiches for a picnic lunch, on a day we visited some gardens. She baked the buns herself, and they had some mixed greens and deli mustard and some cheese in them. This sounds kind of unassuming when I put it like that. Maybe I'd think that too if it was something I just put together for myself any other day (tho a bit of good cheese and mustard IS really tasty, don't get me wrong). The combination of "my WIFE made this for us" and "it's a beautiful day outside with my partner and I'm very hungry" made it feel very special. I've literally been thinking about these sandwiches months later. I make it for myself sometimes and it's just not the same, haha.

A very short example: Sometimes a grilled cheese hits the spot, & sometimes the exact same grilled cheese feels too rich, too heavy.

I spent 3 hours thinking about this. Sorry if this isn't a terribly conclusive answer. Was very fun to think about, though.

Same deal, but skip cheese, add shredded napa cabbage and change sauce/seasoning to sambal olek, sesame oil, soy sauce, and a tiny touch sweetness, any sweetener you like. I used agave syrup. Also added some tofu.

Pan Roasted Ratatouille tastes like early summer

An easy 15 minute recipe – the veggies do almost all the work

Use your freshest, best early summer veggies for this–get thee to a farmer’s market if you do not have a garden!

Slice one small Chinese eggplant and a zucchini that is about the same size into coins.

Cut a sweet Vidalia onion into bite size pieces,

Cut 8 button or cremini mushrooms into quarters

Cut 4 Campari tomatoes into quarters (or any small, sweet, fleshy tomato. Paste tomatoes should be fine)

Add cut veggies to a large lightly oiled grill pan or iron skillet. (I like a light flavored olive oil.) Toss everything to coat with oil. Spread things out so they are not too crowded. Put over campfire or under broiler on high heat, stirring about every 3 minutes. (I did mine in toaster oven). Meanwhile, prep the peppers, see instructions below.

Cook the zukes/eggplants&etc. until most things are lightly caramelized – about 12 minutes – pull it out before things burn.

Add minced garlic (dried/granulated is ok) and balsamic syrup, toss to coat everything, return to heat 1 min, stir, return to heat 1 min.

if things are too soupy, boil off some of the juices. The sauce should be a sticky glaze-like coating. Adding onion powder and granulated garlic can help to thicken it. Set the pan on a counter to cool for a moment.

Meanwhile, cut a sweet red bell pepper in half, remove seeds, lay down flat with skin side up on a seperate roasting pan. Roast until the skin blackens, then pull out and cover with a lid, let cool. After they are cool enough to handle, peel and chop into bite sized pieces. The blackened skin should practically fall off. add the chopped peppers to everything else.

Stir everything together, add shreds of fresh basil, (or thyme, rosemary, etc.)

Put in serving bowl, sprinkle with a little crumbly, salty cheese (a blend of parmesan and mozzarella is good)(optional: sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes)

 Serve.

(Optional, toss with cooked pasta, or put on toasted bread, or on a pizza, or on top of breaded fried eggplant slices.)

This makes about two servings—if serving more people, adjust quantities.

I’m on a low sodium diet, so I didn’t salt anything and just relied on the cheese, which was fine for me because all the fresh summer veggies were so flavorful and delicious and intense.. Tons of natural umami. If you like salt, feel free to add salt.

top 10 things i cooked in 2023

this year i made 104 unique recipes (plus lots of duplicates when i liked something enough to make it multiple times). the places i went to most for recipes were feasting at home + the NYT recipes app, although i very much liked the weekday vegetarians, love and lemons, cookie & kate, nora cooks, and the foodie takes flight.

my top 10, in no particular order:

NYT ricotta pasta with roasted broccoli and crispy chickpeas (super simple but a great yummy pasta to make real quick for friends. I roasted the broccoli instead of broiling and added lots of extra lemon zest, garlic, red pepper flakes, and a tray of oven-roasted chickpeas)

moroccan vegetable tagine (i blended a bunch of recipes but the one linked was my starting point. this is the one form i like butternut squash in lol. modifications: i went heavy on all the spices but especially the cinnamon and cardamom, added chopped dried apricots to the stew for extra sweetness, and threw in a bunch of extra veggies. yum)

indian-ish nachos with cheddar, black beans and chutney (do NOT skip the multiple chutneys and sauces. it will seem like too much work you will say can't i just make one and be done with it but those sauces are where the magic lies. the great tragedy of these nachos is that i wanted to eat them for DAYS but they do not reheat well. but godddd they were good)

ottolenghi's green pancakes with lime butter (these are SO easy. great for brunch but also make delicious additions to your lunch for a couple days after. also it's a perfect way to eat a pound of spinach and feel very virtuous about it when really you just ate delicious jalapeno-y scallion pancakes. the lime butter is great but it's a lot of work so i usually just top these with some sour cream mixed with a lil bit of lime zest & lime juice)

cauliflower shawarma with spicy tahini sauce (YUM! the tahini sauce as written was too bitter for me with the cholula mixed in. i think i'd try it with sriracha next time so it was a little sweeter. i also added chickpeas yum)

roasted cauliflower daal with chickpeas (my notes say this was "OUTTA THIS WORLD DELICIOUS" but also note that it will "really clean you out GI-wise" lol. lentils always have that effect on me though so ymmv. i added bell pepper, roasted the cauliflower first, cooked the lentils most of the way soft in the rice cooker instead of on the stove, and added two chopped serrano peppers with seeds to give it a lil extra kick. i would recommend halving the recipe if you are cooking for one as there were TONS of leftovers and my GI system could not handle being cleansed that many times lol)

pasta with corn, tomatoes, "onion-bacon," and basil (this method of preparing onions really should not taste like bacon and yet it sort of does????? this was a summer recipe i made multiple times for a range of audiences and it was a hit every time. originally from the weekday vegetarians)

creamy corn pasta (THIS HAS NO RIGHT BEING AS GOOD AS IT IS. IT'S SO SIMPLE AND YET IT'S THE BEST THING I'VE EVER TASTED I COULD EAT IT FOR DAYS. WE ATE IT ALL SUMMER)

ottolenghi's very full roasted veggie tart (it will take you hours to make and no time at all to consume but oh my god it's so good and SUCH a satisfying way to spend a long weekend afternoon. liz and i loved this so much we had to have a serious sitdown to discuss how we would divvy up the leftovers because we felt it could seriously damage our friendship if one of us ate all of it)

bombay burritos (the little sauces and things take a long time to make but you can prep a lot of the stuff a day or two in advance and gosh these are so tasty!! the curried mashed potatoes YUM)

honorable mentions:

ottolenghi's mango soba noodles (skip the eggplant i'd do tofu or something instead)

braised tofu with basil (i made this with a veggie-loaded stir fry and topped it with a fried egg)

this carrot cake (it took forever to make but it was the best carrot cake i've ever had and the only thing i'll ever make on my bday from here on out). she also has a pumpkin cake recipe that is so good and much simpler to make (no grating required)

momofuku's ginger scallion tofu with crispy coconut rice (the recipe is for a shrimp version but we made it with tofu and it was very yummy. i made this at a friend's house and it was so good i wanted to ask to take home some of the leftovers but decided that was too rude ahaha)

and then of course i gotta give a shoutout to my #1 comfort foods this year, SHAKSHUKA (my beloved) + a caprese sandwich with balsamic glaze served on really good bread.

[dare-to-dm]

Top five meals you cook?

Oooo, this is a nice question. I don't consider myself to be a great cook and I'm actually scared of using knives, but here are the top 5 meals in my wheelhouse:

Clam Chowder

This is my top comfort meal. I have a version I grew up with that is mainly made of canned ingredients that is so easy but still so delicious. But I've been experimenting lately with alterations that are more from scratch, some of which incorporate ingredients I can forage such as field garlic.

2. Carbonara

I've been practicing my carbonara sauce lately, and it's coming along well. I like to put it over cheese tortellini with peas. But also good over spaghetti noodles.

3. Ramen Salad

I get that as a salad I'm not technically cooking a dish. But then again, for this recipe I do toast my own almonds and sesame seeds, plus I add cooked chicken for protein. What I really like about this meal is how textural it is. The ramen noodles, cabbage, and almonds all give their own crunch variations and it's a fun mouth feel. Plus the vinegar based dressing packs a nice flavor punch.

4. Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage

I try to cook this not around Saint Patrick's day as corned beef is always super expensive around then. But it's really tasty and easy.

5. Ramen Noodles

Okay, this one may seem like something of a cop out, but honestly, when cooking I judge recipes not just on the quality of the finished product but also on the ease of making them. A fabulous meal that takes hours of stressful work to produce is not better than a simple meal that is quick and easy to make but still really delicious. And it doesn't get easier than packaged ramen noodles. I add frozen veggies and mess around with different seasonings and usually add a couple of eggs kind of poached on top. It takes less than 10 minutes to cook and is super delicious, has protein from the eggs and nutrients from the veggies. I limit myself from cooking this meal more than once a week if only because the sodium content is pretty insane.

[antirepurp]

fuck it it's been eons im sharing my funny little recipe for making instant noodles not suck

Stuff you need

your favorite pack of instant noodles. or the next best thing whatever works

frozen spinach leaves (or alternative veggies)

egg :)

1 mushroom (optional but very recommended)

soysauce (abt 1-2 tablespoons)

fish sauce (5-10 drops)

lime juice (5-10 drops)

1-2cm fresh ginger (ginger powder's fine in a pinch)

Stuff you do

boil the spinach. add a generous amount of salt into the water as well as butter! shit's tasty. other veggies also love being boiled in salt. as an alternative you can fry the spinach if you'd like

prepare egg. i prefer to fry mine sunny side up in some oil bc it's quick, but you can also boil it. usually the point is to keep the yolk/yellow part soft so it mixes nicely into the broth and noodles but if you don't have to do that if you wanna do something else

chop/crush ginger and chop mushroom. crushed ginger releases more flavor than chopped but i like having little ginger pieces in my broth, and you can add more of it when it's chopped.

add ginger, mushroom, flavor packets into a pot with water. i paid for the flavor packets and im fucking using them ok. taste a bit to check the base taste before adding the good stuff:

soysauce, fish sauce, lime juice. that's my recommended order, anyway. taste frequently and start adding them carefully to adjust the flavor more precisely! the amounts i gave are generous estimates because i tend to just wing it

boil noodles. it's probably better to boil them separately, but im lazy and just add them into the broth. this will taint the broth with the forbidden noodle particles, so if that's not your thing take out another pot for them

add everything into a bowl and enjoy. wahey :)

Other tips I guess

you can go apeshit with veggies, and you can absolutely use fresh ones as well, though you should add them to the broth instead of prepping them separately. i think. idk i prefer to work with frozen stuff bc you can get a lot for cheap and they last for a long time

if you want to prepare protein that isn't an egg for this, go for it! i love adding leftover chicken whenever we have some, and things like tofu are pretty neat too

a lot of this recipe or whatever relies on the flavor packet as a kind of base for the broth, hence why i recommend picking a noodle thing you can eat as is for this. i've also noticed that this works particularly well for seafood noodles, but i've done it for other kinds as well and had cool results

[kineats]

can I please have some easy, plant-based recipes for a witch kin? If you'd like me to be more descriptive, I can be, but I'm kind of curious to see what you can come up with! (and could you exclude crunchy things as well)? Thank you!

Witchcraft and Kitchen Witchery also always remind me of rustic foods

I also always think of mushrooms, both wild and grown

I also also always think of various soups and stews when thinking about kitchen witchery!

My Taino Wife (with lots of Caribbean witchy friends) says her favorite dish (from said friends) is Jerk Tofu with Rice

quick little thai quinoa salad for dinner tonight and for lunches for the rest of the week. this is absolutely a back pocket recipe for me, i’ve probably made it twenty times. tasty, vibrant, veggie packed 👊🏻

[jinxedwood]

So. I’m one of those weirdos that always skate by the veggie deals when I shop in LIdl. This week they had bok choy  on sale. A quick google on my phone gave me a bok choy and shitake mushroom stir fry that looked tasty  so I blew whatever savings I made on the Bok Choi to buy some fresh shitake mushrooms. Here is the recipe I used. I added  some hoisin marinated tofu pieces and some chilli garlic paste ( because chilli makes everything better) and swapped out the veggie broth for veggie stock but this shit was good. I never get stir fry sauces right so I usually rely on store bought versions but this was so simple I figured I couldn’t get it wrong, and I’m definitely using this sauce again for other stir fries.  

For entertainment while cooking/eating, i listened to ContraPoints pull apart Twilight on youtube, which seems to be a thing at the moment because I also listened to Princess Weekes pull it apart a few days ago. (Am I missing something? Is there some kind of remake on the horizon?) 

Both are good videos, which address different aspects of the books so it's worth your while to watch both, but ContraPoints' sense of humour edges her into first place for me.

Dinner Recipe: "Fancy Salads"

TIME: ★★★★

PRICE: ★★★★

EASE: ★★★★

CLEANUP: ★★★★

"Fancy Salads" is just mine and my partner's term for... well... ANY salad that has more effort in it than a side salad. Even then, the amount of effort is typically fairly minimal.

This has room to be much more intensive, but typically these take us about 10 minutes to throw together. Possibly less if you have pre-cut veggies.

We usually use leftover chicken (or other protein) from our previous meals, but you could leave it out entirely or replace it with your protein of choice (tofu, chickpeas, etc.) There are a couple variations that we frequently make, depending on what we have in stock or what leftovers we have! All of these use a salad green base (we grab a handful or two of 50/50 salad blend, romaine, spinach, etc.)

-Summer Salad:  Mandarin oranges, cherry tomatoes, almonds, craisins, strawberries

-Autumn Salad:  Diced apple, walnut, strawberry, crumbled goat cheese

-Harvest Salad:  Craisins, corn, pecans, avocado, sunflower seeds, bacon

-House Salad:  Red onion, cherry tomatoes, carrots, cucumber, cheddar cheese, croutons

-Italian Salad:  Pepperoncinis, red onion, kalamata olives, tomatoes, parmesan, croutons, italian dressing

-Taco Salad: Salsa, Mexican blend cheese, avocados (or guac,) red onion, jalapenos, corn chips (this is a GREAT way to get rid of the crumbly corn chips at the bottom of the bag!)

Grab a big handful of greens. Toss it in a bowl. Toss the toppings in with it. Drizzle with dressing of choice. Done. SUPER easy, quick, and tasty!

NOTE: Some of these topping sets are gluten free, dairy free, or could be easily modified to be so. I don't have food restrictions, so be sure to double check your dressings to adapt them as necessary!
