In a separate bowl, stir together one large egg, one cup of sugar and one cup of flour, blend and stir mixture until the ingredients resemble coarse meal.

Recipe: Shrimp and Ham Jambalaya

October 27th, 2005

When I cook for guests, this is often one of the recipes I make. 
This is a mild dish compared to true Cajun style Jambalaya, but could be
heated up with the addition of some cayenne pepper.  It’s been a
popular dish as-is with every guest I’ve ever cooked it for.

Recipe: Chili Relleno Casserole

October 27th, 2005

One of my favorite Mexican dishes is the Chili Relleno, which is a chili
pepper filled with cheese, covered in an egg-based batter, with sauce on
top.  This dish is a lot easier to make and tastes just as good as
the real thing to me.

Recipe: Cincinnati Chili

October 27th, 2005

The city of Cincinnati has a particular variety of chili that is unlike
any found outside that area. Chili restaurant chains, notably Gold Star
Chili and Skyline Chili, exist throughout the area. A big fan of the
chili, I have spent many hours over the years trying to duplicate their
recipe. This is as close as I can get. (Some have said they can’t tell
the difference.)

Recipe: Samosas

October 27th, 2005

Samosas are an Indian appetizer, commonly served in Indian
restaurants. They are fairly easy to make at home, although they can be
time consuming to assemble. To keep cooking time low, I recommend using
egg roll wrappers as a substitute for actual samosa pastry dough, which
is also time-consuming to prepare.
