Evening, gents.

My parents were out and I had friends of mine over, so I entertained them by making boiled rice with potatoes (with skins), onion stems, lettuce, roast beef slices, and salt, pepper, and other spices, along with chicken wings and fries. Anyway, it got me wondering: How many of you can cook? What are your favourite recipes?

Let's get a good old fashion recipes thread going.

Roast Beef Sandwich Toasted:
Ingredients:
Rye bread.
Roast beef (sliced thinly).
Mayonnaise.
Onions.
Cheddar Cheese (optional).
Lays plain chips / salt and vinegar chips.
Baby dill pickles.

Instructions:

Caramelize the onions on a frying pan. If you want to, you can leave them a bit crunchy. Toast the rye and roast beef in your toaster oven (or if you don't have a toaster over, put the roast been in the microwave and heat it briefly or until warm while the rye goes in your toaster). Next, apply a thin sheet of mayonnaise to the rye along with the caramelized onions. You can add shredded cheddar too if you want, but the layers should be thin. Add pepper or thyme if you really want to, but it's not necessary. Then, toast the rest of the way, or if you like it light, leave it as is. Cut the sandwich in half and put it on a plate with a dill pickle or two and the lays chips. Serve with a soda if you want. If you're feeling like you want an extra serving of meat, you can use a third slice of rye to part roast beef and ham, which would give you something like pic related.

Alright, gents. Let's see what you got.

Reubens are my favorite thing about new york.

Last night I made some angel hair pasta with a spicy italian sausage and sauteed spanish onions. All in a basic sweet tomato sauce. Wasn't bad. It's tough living in an apartment, my specialty is grilling.

Any suggestions for some quick and cheap college recipes? I only have an oven and stove.

You could try putting the oven in the stove, or the stove in the oven. Aside from that, you'd probably need to buy some food first.

On a serious note, what do you have to work with?

>I grill btw
Angel hair pasta sounds nice.

Gourmet grilled cheese is fairly simple to make, and if you're worried about nutrition, it leaves a lot of room to add things in without detracting from the flavor.

Im cooking for myself and my roommate. I went shopping the other day. I'm thinking of doing a baked meatball dinner and serving them up with different sauces. Of course there's regular tomato sauce. I'll also add a grape jam and chile sauce which is fantastic. But three sauces will make this idea really shine? Maybe a chipotle sauce? I am limited on supplies but I have a fair amount of mexican related spices.

We have been having a lot of mexican and italian dishes lately. I have some chicken breasts that I am going to be making soon. I was thinking of cutting them up into strips, frying them with some sriracha, onions, and carrots with some lo mein noodles. It sounds kinda boring though. What do you think?

I love me some cooking. My favorite salmon dish:

1 large fillet wild-caught Alaskan red salmon (I live in AK so that's our defacto choice, way better than farmed salmon
Olive oil
Black pepper
Lemon pepper
Herbs de Provence

Cut salmon fillet in half, this makes it easier to grill. Lay meat side up on a large platter. Pour olive oil over fish until there's a nice layer covering all the meat (this may seem like a lot of oil but trust me). Add desired amounts of black pepper, lemon pepper, and herbs de provence (less is more IMO).

Flip the salmon over so the skin side is up, letting the meat marinade while you get your grill going. I vastly prefer charcoal grills for fish but that's just my preference.

If you use charcoal, use a lot of charcoals and let it burn until you have a healthy white layer covering all the charcoals before putting the top on. I generally choke down the intake and exhaust to half open. Grill 5-6 minutes per side, grilling the meat side first.

If using a gas grill, grill 5-6 minutes per side over medium-high heat, gilling meat side first.

>Pour olive oil over fish until there's a nice layer covering all the meat

I should probably clarify this. I don't mean soak the fish in oil, it's just that you want the entire surface of the fish to have a bit of oil on it. Sometimes I'll even pour a bit of oil on the platter before adding the fish to get some oil on the skin and give the meat more oil to marinate in while you prep your grill. Doing this creates a bit of a crust on the meat when you grill it.

I've been buying bagels every few days from a local bakery for a few months now. I should learn how to make them myself.
