Beef Stroganoff

Hey, long time no see! I have an important exam on Monday morning, so of course this evening I made beef stroganoff to blog about. Beef stroganoff is a Russian dish which, at its simplest, is beef, sautéed and served in a sour cream sauce. Some versions use shaved beef; others use cubed beef. Some serve it plain, others with fried potatoes, and others still with rice. I was taught to make it with egg noodles, which, with their light flavour and texture, complement the rich, creamy sauce very well. More details and pics after the jump!


Slow-Cooked Ribs

A friend of mine gave me his favourite recipe for slow-cooked ribs the other day, and I just had to try it out with company over for dinner tonight. Lots of photos after the jump!


Chicken Fettuccine with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto

We had some friends over for dinner tonight, and didn’t have a lot of time to prepare anything, so I pulled out an old favourite of mine – chicken served over fettuccine, seasoned with sun-dried tomato pesto. Details and photo after the jump!


Hot Italian Sausages

Tonight, my roommate made us hot italian sausages for dinner. Photos and details after the jump!


Introducing Slapapatula

Hi there! Welcome to my new blog about food. I’ll probably start off mostly writing about food that my roommates and I make, now that we’ve moved out of campus residence and we’re making our own meals. We’ll see where it goes from there!

Right now, I’m eating a chicken sandwich. I started off with an Everything Bun, slapped on some mayonnaise, spicy brown mustard, and salt and pepper. Then I chopped up some cucumber, tomato, dill pickles, and aged cheddar cheese, and threw those into the mix. On top of that, I put some cajun-seasoned deli-style chicken from the supermarket, and put some lettuce on to finish it off. I meant to throw some alfalfa sprouts on there, too, but it slipped my mind, and the sandwich is incredibly delicious without them anyway. Photo below. Cheers!

Lunch!
