Potato leek soup is fucking amazing

Oven baked wings.
Basically you just take 1tsp each of baking soda, corn starch, and salt for each lb of chicken wings.
Toss the wings in the dry shit(you can add w.e. spices you like) then let sit in the fridge for ~12 hours.
Then you bake them. They come out very crispy, legit almost like deep fried.

>>17719928
i use a large dutch oven, you could use cast iron too. something big and heavy so that the oil temp doesn't drop too hard when you put the chicken in.

>>17719940
I'll definitely try it! Recommend anything to the side? Like garlic bread or whatever

>>17719980
Damn, I only got steel ones. Think an airfryer will do the job?

>throw brown rice and water in a crock pot
>add 3:1 water and rice
>lay 2-4 chicken thighs on top
>bake both at the same time in an oven for an hour
>remove chicken thighs
>refry rice adding whatever vegetables you want (no need to add oil, it will have soaked up the fat from the chicken) for 5-10 minutes
>rice should be all crispy and golden brown
>serve as is or shred chicken and make a burrito

bretty simple, cheap and nutritious meal and you barely have to do any cooking really

>>17719715
Split pea soup:
1lbs split pea
2 carrots
1 onion
1 clove garlic
spices of your choosing (i use tyme, rosemary black pepper )
leftover ham from Easter ham

saute chopped onions and carrot in a little oil/fat of your choice
add in garlic and spices and deglaze pot with water
add split peas and ham and bring to a boil then simmer for around 1 hour or until the peas are soft but still intact. salt as needed
to step it up take half the soup out and puree it with a stick blender then add back in for a cream broth while still having chunky ham and peas. (if you have a ham bone soak that bitch in there while it simmers)

>Toast eggo waffle for half the recommended amount of time
>Fold it into a taco shape
>Toast it the rest of the way (this is easier in a toaster oven)
>Put ice cream in it
>Put toppings on top of it
Homemade choco taco recipe

I need easy recipes that are meat heavy.

>>17720009
Damn, that might be nice. And chicken thighs are my favorite part of the chicken.

>>17719985
these deep fryers cost like $14 and have a temp gauge so you don't have to play around with a thermometer trying to get your heat right.

i take out side and fry on the back porch so it doesn't stink up the house and grease up the kitchen.
After i'm done frying i let the oil cool then strain it and scrub the floury sediment out of the bottom of the fryer and add the strained oil back in and stick a lid on it and set aside to use again a few more times. (make sure you put it somewhere where it won't get knocked over)

>>17720142
That seems like such a pain, I don't think I could ever deep fry.

>>17720142
I'll look for them next time I go by a shopping center

>>17720145
A fan on high, and an open window should do the trick. Or am I just being rarted?

>>17719985
probably, i've never done that mix in one those. I usually lightly dredge for an air fryer.

Single mom lazy chili:

2lbs ground beef
2 cans chili beans
1 can diced tomato
1 tomato paste
1 can diced green chiles
1 can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1 large onion chopped
1 bell pepper chopped
1 packet chili seasoning

Brown the beef
saute the onion and pepper in same pot
dump the rest of the shit in and add water
simmer until it's as thick as you want it and eat

you can add other shit like beef broth instead of water, extra peppers, garlic, a little Worcester sauce and more spices like cumin, cayenne pepper, cilantro, smoked chili powder etc. but non of that is necessary if just need a big pot of chili to eat for a few days

>>17720172

>>17720203
>2 cans of chili beans
This is why you are single

>>17720203
I already have a killer crock pot chili recipe fine tuned to my preferences. But thanks! This is almost exactly the same as what I do anyway.

>>17720145
it is a pain when you start just like homemade pizza where it's a whole afternoon ordeal and you kitchen is trashed afterwards but after you been doing it for awhile you get a rhythm and know how to minimize the mess and time wasted, then it's not really any worse then any other home cooked meal.

I grab the fryer off the top of the fridge and take it outside and start heating the oil
come in and cut the chicken, dip it in flour then in egg then back in flour and put it all on a tray.
by then the oil is hot so i go drop it in the fryer for a few minutes
scoop it out onto a tray and go eat.
by the time i'm done eating and washing up the dishes the oil is cool enough to strain and clean the fryer.

There is actually less pots and pans then when i oven roast chicken and saute veggies

>>17720203
Thank you!

Sounds like something I'll have to try, as soon as I've been to the supermarket

>>17720203

Sear chuck remove saute onions a pablano some garlic then add paprika a bit of tomato paste salt pepper poor the sauce in and add the beef back to braise.

Pound cake

mix in 1 lb flour until just incorporated
pour into a bundt or loaf pan and bake at 350F for 1 hour

Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing

>1:1 ratio of extra virgin olive oil to balsamic vinegar
>1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
>1 tsp dijon mustard
>honey or white sugar to taste
>salt and pepper to taste

Wala
Makes eating salads actually enjoyable

Easy chicken tacos
-Slow cook or boil preferred amount of chicken
- remove chicken and shred and remove bones or skin etc
- dump in jar of tomato sauce or alternative into pot with just shredded chicken
-Paprika, cumin, adobo seasoning I also use Caldo de pollo seasoning also because my nana used to, shit is cash
- dump in favorite hot sauce for spice
-add chicken broth or water for preferred consistency
-fry corn tortillas in lard

Donezo. Eat and enjoy with crema, avocado, hot sauce on top, cum. I don't care eat your fucking simple taco you inept retard.

>>17720478
I may be an inept retard, but I still thank you for an interesting thing to try.

>>17720338
same but that's proper chili con carne which i consider a completely different dish then home style chili

>>17720416
Caesar Salad Dressing:

2 small garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup mayo
½ cup parmesan
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

this is the proper recipe but i just wing it for small batches and i don't ever have anchovies so i just skip them and i use garlic powder but it still tastes correct

>2 cups/1 pint heavy cream
they sell 1 pint containers so it's convenient, or you can just get a big boy carton
>5 egg yolks
>1/2 cup granulated white sugar
>1 vanilla bean, or 1 tsp vanilla extract
>a pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Add the cream to a saucepan. If using vanilla bean, split, scrape, and put it in with the heavy cream. Heat until hot, then add your vanilla extract (if using). Remove the vanilla bean pods (if using).

While the cream is heating, or when it just finishes, you want to boil some water. You also want to bear the 1/2 a cup of sugar into the 5 egg yolks. Make sure it's well combined and light.

Slowly steam about half of the hot cream into the egg yolks, stirring constantly. Then pour the egg mixture into the cream, stirring constantly. These steps are crucial, as you do not want the eggs to curdle. Then, pour the whole thing into four 6 ounce ramekins and place in a baking dish. Fill the dish with boiling water until the water level reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Bake it for 30ish minutes until the center is just set. When you tilt the ramekin, the center should move but not break. It should have a kind of jello like movement in the center. Allow it to cool to room temp, then set in the fridge overnight, up to a few days. When ready to eat, take it out, sprinkle some sugar on top, then use any method you like to caramelize. I have a torch, but apparently you can just get a spoon hot using a stovetop and gently touch the spoon to the sugar. Or you can use a broiler.

It is a lot easier than it sounds desu, and it's good because it can be made in advance.

>>17721759
>1 vanilla bean, or 1 tsp vanilla extract
one vanilla bean does not equal one tsp of extract
t. i grow several types of vanilla two of which are endangered and require a license to grow

>>17720106
When it's done, take it off the heat and dump in 500g good quality frozen peas. The heat from the soup will defrost the peas while still leaving then juicy to the bite. Sage is highly recommended.

>>17720145
>such a pain
It's literally waiting for something to come to temperature, dipping food in it, then taking the food out? It's a more exciting version of baking. You're fucking retarded if you think frying is labor intensive at all.

Lentils and rice

>fry some veggies, meat, whatever, you can add whole spices to the oil and fry them first too. I like to add a lot of coriander (seed) and a little cumin
>add 13/8 cup chicken broth, 1/8 cup lemon juice to the pan, also add spices (I add bay leaf, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper)
>simmer 1/3 cup lentils for 15 minutes
>add 2/3 cup soaked fragrant long grain rice, also add salt
>bring to boil and then cover + reduce to low heat to steam
>turn heat off after 15 to 17 minutes depending on how hot your low heat is, then wait 10 more minutes
>fluff the rice and eat

>>17719715

The solar radiation cooks the bowl

>Fry a couple bacon strips
>Put them in low heat in the oven so they stay warm
>Fry some diced onion on low heat in the bacon grease
>This step might take a while, you want the onion brown but not burnt, you might want to add very little water if they dry out
>Scramble a couple eggs in the meantime
>Sink 2 bread slices in scrambled eggs
>When onion is ready take it out
>Toss in a little butter and fry the bread slices
>Turn the bread slices and top them off with cheese
>Take out the bread
>Throw in the rest of the eggs
>Once done, assemble the sandwich with some lettuce and some ceff sauce (50/50 of ketchup/mayo)

Hint: its better to make 2 sandwiches

Felt I needed to contribute something here, so here it is.
(Low prep and crazy good)

>Dice cucumber and tomatos (avocados are optional but a very nice addition)
>Put them in a bowl, preferably with a lid on, and then put it in the fridge for the time being
>Get a new cutting board and start cutting your chicken into pieces the size or ur thumb
>Heat pan just enough for droplet of water to instantly boil
>Cook your chicken til it gets a nice texture (cut the largest piece in half and check if it's cooked all the way through)
>When it's done, take the pan off the heat and season it with a taco spice mix (use a small amount of olive oil if the spices won't stick to the chicken)
>Take out those veggies u cut earlier and put them on the table
>Assemble your ingredients in a tortilla with creme fraiche and enjoy with ur favorite drink
>Done

>>17722447
the heat from my anger cooks the bowl

any crock pot/slow cooker recipe is super easy. u just throw a bunch of shit in a pot then come back hours later. Instant pot and Dutch oven recipes are nice too. they're hard to fuck up

>>17723529
The trouble is I don't have either

>>17719715
This is /ck/, nobody cooks here. My favourite recipe is mcdonalds fries poured over a quarter pounder with cheese

>>17722665
I make minestrone with a ton of savoy cabbage. No meat but you can add some. I sweat a ton of onions then some garlic at the end and begin frying the vegetables (whatever you want besides the cabbage and potato), deglaze the pan with any spanish style rum, havana works but I use ron matusalem. Then just dump a load of tomatoes in there, you can use fresh ones but if you're using winter vegetables I'm guessing you'll want to use canned stuff. Enough stock to make a batch. Lots of worcestershire sauce if you can get it, its goated for tomato based recipes. I also add fennel or anise, it's a great aftertaste for a hot soup. And the rind of a parmesan wedge. Add the cabbage after the stock, bring it to the boil and cover it under a low heat. boil the potatoes in the soup after its developed.

Bumping this
Need more

>>17719715
My go to is the classic bot
Frozen sofrito mix (bulk batch and freeze down)
Chopped tomatos
Mince (beef+pork is good, but all cow is fine)
Red wine (I use the little 18.75cl bottles)
Beef stock (premade knorr stocks are fine)
Herbs/Spices (your choice)

-Slow cook the veg, little bit of water first to help thaw and then evapourate off
-Then add the mince
-Brown off and then leave to stand for a little bit (you want almost burned crispy bits on parts)
-Then add the chopped toms and season with whatever spices/herbs you want. (I use oregano, basil and thyme, but you can use whatever)
-Let it boil, then bring down to a simmer and leave for as long as you can (2+ hours).
Then boil whatever pasta you want, add it to the ragu and walaa, shred some cheese on that and eat.

However;
I also use this ragu for Cottage pie (I always make too much ragu)
Put some peas into the ragu
Put ragu in an oven dish
Make some creamy mash
Put mash on top
Throw in an oven
Cook
Cook some garlic bread on the side as a bonus.

2 cans sweetened condensed milk
24 oz chocolate chips
1 tsp salt

Melt on low heat on stove until it thickens.
Pour into parchment/cling wrap/foil lined container.
Let sit until solid.
Ta-da, more fudge than your fat ass can eat

>>17721802
I meant 1 tablespoon, bit of a typo there. I do prefer my creme brulee with real vanilla bean, but it's really not very cheap. At least you can dry the used up pods and toss em in a container with sugar to make vanilla sugar. That's what I typically use to top the creme brulee.

>>17719715
Heringstip
Cut into slices apple, onion, pickles. Cut hering into bite sized bits. Add all into a big pot. Cover with yoghurt and a bit of milk. Add dill. Put into fridge for 2 days.

Eat on warm potatoes.

The water consumption tho

>italian sausage and bell pepper pasta
1/2 to 1 onion, to taste
1 package sliced mushrooms
1 red/yellow bell pepper
3-5 mild or hot italian sausages, to taste
spices to taste, I use red pepper flakes, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and a little basil
whatever pasta you want

Cook the pasta, set aside. Cut the skin/casing off the sausages and use a spatula to separate into 1 inch pieces in a frying pan. Optionally, just cut the sausage into medallions without skinning it. Cook the sausage on medium-high heat til cooked through, drain some oil if you feel like it. Add onions, mushrooms, and peppers. Cook til onions are browned and mushrooms are tender. Combine with pasta.

get potatoes
cover them in aluminium foil
put them on the grill
wait 30 minutes

eat

>>17719715
>take plantains (at least two for a good haul) peel and cut into slices about an inch thick
>still green/yellowish? fry, drain, flatten with bottom of can, season with at least garlic and salt, you have tostones
>black and ripe? fry, drain, don't bother flattening, season with at least garlic and salt, you have maduros
>eat as a snack, maybe with some garlic butter dip if you want to be fancy
>eat as a side. goes well with porkchops imo

red lentil soup
1 potato (for starch / texture)

How about this classic?

Embrace balkanite mode and just throw stuff you like in a clay pot then slow cook for however hours you need.
You can literally just layer seasoned meat in a lightly oiled clay pot, cook it for like 2.5 hours at 180C and you can't go wrong.
Pic related, it's my gyuvech.

A whole weeks worth of chili for like $13 bucks

Throw it on hot dogs or hamburgers, eat it plain, eat it with saltine crackers, put it over pasta, stuff a green pepper.
My favorite thing to do is heat it up, dump cheddar cheese on top, then scoop it out with saltine or tortilla chips and then dip it in fresh salsa and sour cream.

When I was really poor I would do this and eat it for the whole week.
My favorite sloppa!

>>17733232
God I wish we europoors got the good stuff you ameribros get

>>17732303
Um yeah, sensible ones lol. About the only thing to do is make sure there’s maybe 1/3 to 2/3 sour cream less than mayo. It’s just a cold salad.

Guys, please there is a cookbook thread open already. Let's keep the recipes all in one place, huh?

>>17734648
I think this one was started before that. And even if it turns out it wasn't, this is nieched towards lazy cooks, while a general cookbook thread is not

>>17732002
Gonna try this out with some of the pickled asparagus I still have laying around, wish me luck

>>17719715
hamburger meat (beef or turkey), onion, carrot, instant mashed potatoes, and either cheese or condensed cream of mushroom/cream of celery/cream of chicken soup.

heat water for the potatoes. grate onion and carrot with a cheese grater. begin to brown hamburger, adding the veg soon after. while it browns, mix boiling water into potato flakes. pack the mince into the bottom of a casserole dish of appropriate size, top with potato, top potato with soup or cheese. bake 35-45 minutes. Wa La. Shepherd's pie.

>>17735541
or alternatively, green pepper and onion and taco seasoning in the mince, a can of refried beans, and cheese or queso dip on top. I call it "Vaquero's Pie".
