Most of the things I cooked last night were not really noteworthy. Some were just staples and some didn't turn out well enough for me to really want to make it again. But, there were a couple of things I wanted to note:
- Beef with tomatoes stew - could be considered "tex mex", especially corn were added. Pan fried onion with bell pepper. Removed, and then seared the beef. Added tomatoes with basil and oregano, and put onion and bell pepper back in. Added red wine. Simmered for about 3 hours, till beef was soft. This tasted pretty good and isn't too difficult to make, being a "one pot" dish.
- The other way I used the London Broil was to oven bake it with oil, vinegar, onions, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, and pepper. The sauce was good.
- Potato pancakes - this could work pretty well, if I were to make each "pancake" smaller, so that the edges could crisp without the potatoes overcooking. The fresh onion, garlic, and parsley really brings the flavor out well. However, this tasted really good when topped with melted cheese; so, an alternative might be to make a shredded pancake casserole, with all the same ingredients and just baked with a cheese topping.
