Not sure the exact recipe that will be used for my filet mingon, but I will be using one with a red wine reduced sauce.

 

I'm nervous about the beef wellington. I dont want to waste a $60 chunk of meat by over cooking it or improperly, this will also be one of the most technical dishes i've ever made! regardless I will post pictures of both!

I loved the pics of your recipe Terah.  

 

#PancakesInDisguise

 

I thought googling Pancakes in Disguise would have yielded more exciting results.

I have made beef wellington and it is tricky. You can make individual wellingtons with single servings of steak in if you didn't want to risk such a high cost cut of meat?

For those of you that don't follow my thread, I do a world food cooking thing every autumn where once a week I randomly draw a country and cook a signature authentic dish from that country. Well as the challenge this week is to cook new dishes, I have randomly drawn seven of them and I am making seven new dishes. Some of them have new side dishes too, like today's which is from Venezuela. 

 

 

That is Pabellon Criollo Steak (steak topped with tomatoes, onions, garlic and spices) with Caraotas Negras (black beans cooked with herbs and red peppers) served with seasoned cucumbers and a glass of red wine. 

 

 

 

Taken in on my boat, you will notice from the background.

Wine makes bad things good and good things better. It's also the reason the Wolverine exists.

Today's recipe looks great, but I especially love the idea of drawing different countries for each recipe. You're amazing. 

 

But on the wrong team.

Nope.  She's right where she needs to be. 

[deftona]

And you have a boat?! 

 

No, I just have a very nautical looking trunk in my living room. I wish I had a boat, although it would be a little pointless given I live as far away from the sea as it is possible to on a island the size of the UK. We do have lots of canals.

 

But they're probably full of corpses. 

[spooky]

Today's new recipe will be crustless mini quiches! I've browsed a couple recipes, have some modifications in mind, and am looking forward to cooking them up after today's visit to the vet. 

 

I already did a slight variation on my taco salad (added bell pepper) and a variation on my super awesome brownie recipe (for a family friend's birthday, added some melted semi-sweet bakers chocolate to the usual 2x gharadelli cocoa recipe, 1/2 the usual flour recipe mods) BUT I am not counting those because I feel like I should cook something actually new today

 

GO TEAM WAFFLE. THIS CHALLENGE IS RIGHT IN MY WHEELHOUSE

I pulled a crustless quiche recipe for the week too but it didn't make the cut on the final version of my menu.  I'll still have to try it at some point.  

[deftona]

I always think I should make crustless quiche but then it makes me too sad because the crust is the best bit. 

 

But then, I can only eat eggs if they're covered in cheese, otherwise they're gross.

I think that's the great thing about this week's challenge, anything that doesn't make the menu cut can still be tried at a later date

You are right about the crust, definitely the best part of a quiche. Which is why mine will be mini, putting crust in each of the muffin pans would be a pain in the butt so laziness is my ally! Also they are basically frittatas at this point

[Raze]

I prefer muffins to full crustless quiches. I use 12 eggs, some ham, and some sausage and onion top with cheese. Can throw in whatever you want really. beat all the eggs together season (i use salt pepper and garlic) divide evenly into muffin pan. distribute onion meat and cheese evenly and then use a spoon to mix everything together. heat the oven to 350 F and bake for about 25 minutes until firm and when you inset a knife it comes out clean.

You're welcome to join us. We'll just average the scores

Do you want to be part of team Pancake or team Waffle? I'll add you to the sheet.

Yes, we'll be posting our new recipes.

I'll go to either team. Seems everyone is working together anyways! Or split my score in half for each team.

The finished product

I'll go to either team. Seems everyone is working together anyways! Or split my score in half for each team.

Since you've already showed your preferences to pancakes I added you to team Pancake. Be sure you'll add your scores for this week to the sheet. I'll send you a PM with the link to our secret document where we talk about crushing the waffles.

 

I hope you'll help turn the tide. We've lost one battle, we won't lose an other!

[Terah]

Change of plans: Once in a while I react badly to eggs, and I've eaten quite a lot the last few weeks. Woke up stuffy, so no eggs for a while

I wanted to make those egg and bacon things you put in the oven in a muffin tray today for lunch. But that is out.

I definitely want to try some as well. Maybe we could have a post where we collect them all at the end or so.

A doodlie cookbook! sound like a great plan

For the language virtuoso among us: feel free to add an introduction

For the graphic talents: feel free to create nice front page

 

And for all doodlies: please add your recipes!

Question. I know the recipe scoring is a maximum of 7 points per person. Does it have to be one a day, or can we submit 2 in one day at the expense of another day, as long as we stay at the 7 max?

 

Eta: I'll see if I can produce a fancy Doodlie graphic tonight at home. My work computer is sadly lacking the nice toys I have at home.
