seagulls do eat a lot of fish ... it depends on how much is absorbed into the bloodstream before passing through the digestive system.

which for a seagull - is seemingly instantanious.

[Vodstok]

it's actually "tzatziki" sauce (said just how it looks...), it's made with garlic, oregano and yogurt, and is incredibly good.

[newb]

Nothing like a nice seagull shit pate.

nope !

[Cheeba V2.0]

vod...sorry to have to point this out, but you know me and the food guru bit...
Either they got the tzatziki wrong, or you missed what the main ingredient apart from yhogurt should be : cucumber...

not to mention various versions also containing mint, dill, lemon juics and garlic. but...yknow those are if you wanna go fully authentic.

looks good anyway, we actually have a lowenbrau here, located right down the road from the "car in rain/tunnel" scene from the first matrix was filmed...fucking AWESOME place to eat/drink

[Vodstok]

Godammit... I didnt read it first, yes i did forget cucumber, but its not a big deal... its only 50% of the recipe:rolleyes:

[Cheeba V2.0]

Good stuff though, I regularly make it at home...SO good...awesome for dinner do's.

[gren]

hmmmm

this tzatziki intrigues me. im assuming i can dip whatever in it?

vegetables, crackers.....

<~vegetarian

so its just plain ol yogurt or yogurt cheeze? (yogurt strained, most of the water rid of)... looks just plain yogurt tho

[Cheeba V2.0]

In my experience, the best way to make it is with greek (acidophilous) yhogurt.
It's a fucking brilliant dip...like the greek version of raita (indian), similar, but different.
Give it a go, for sure.

[Haunted]

Fuck you guys, for shit'sake:D Now I have to go out and eat Indian food....

Chicken Tika Masala
Saag,
Aloo Nan
Lamb Vindaloo
Pakoras
Mango laasis
Aloo Mahter
etc etc etc etc:p

[Vodstok]

This is what they have on foodtv.com
Tzatziki Sauce:
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
1 cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon juice or white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon minced garlic

In a medium bowl combine all the ingredients and chill for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to marry

I highly recommend draining the cucumber and yogurt overnight.

You can kick that up a notch by adding a little cayenne pepper!!! :D

awesmoe urgeok...home made houmoss is the shit!
Takes a little while to prepare from scratch, but SO much better than the crap they sell pre-made.

Haunted, the spinach and potato dishes you mentioned are excellent...the indians really have vegetarian stuff down dont they? And yeah, you gotta love the laasi! I sometimes order an extra hot fish vindaloo from my local place, and a mekhan (butter) chicken...SO good...
But hey, if ever you want something real nice, try making one of the curries from scratch, I can help u out with what you need, and what to ad on top of the standars recipes to make 'em extra "authentic"...making one at home turns out like, on a whole other level.

and Vod, just from me...try a little finely chopped corriander (cillantro I think you guys call it?) in your Tzatziki Sauce...it's fresh.

- B

ps Vod...I think any pimping of the project would be justified among present company...

[gren]

HEY

i always make hummus but its never as good as the bought stuff. yes yes i know its hard to believe but all the recipes i find call for 'tahini' and i cant find that shit anywhere!

o. love indian food, but the only thing i know is puliyogare rice powder stuff that i buy. YUMMERZ

[urgeok]

[Cheeba V2.0]

I still Know, I was a kitchenhand for a couple of years in various fast-food type places, then I got the same job in an al dente kinda restaurant, I started to get called the cook...and after some time, I was more or less in charge of the kitchen. We had a chef, and I was more or less the go-between...learned a lot from the guy, and worked there for a total of around 2 and a half years as I recall.
But that was just what got me "into" cooking/food preparation, even since then I've been self-teaching, experimenting with all kinds of stuff, trying to get better as I go.
Yeah, I get mistaken for a chef a lot among the circles in which I hang, but nope....I'm just a cook.
The lowenbrau rocks huh?? Such a weird building, the foods just exemplorary, and the beer...I can't remember what it was called, but I had a certain "after dinner" spirit there that was 60%+ alcohol, very nice mint flavoured shots...

Yeah Gren, I_s_k we're probably someplace near eachother, we're both in Sydney...both been to the same place...wombats are cool, but there's not many in the city or anything...they can however be domesticated, but aren't often.

[Vodstok]

My dad got a degree in Food Service Management when i was 18. hehad been cooking liek crazy for years by then, and when i was in 11th grade, ui had to cook for myself, since i was usually home for 5 hours by myself after school every night.

Eventually i started experimenting with my own stuff, and when i moved oyut of my parents, went psycho cooking for myself constantly. i love trying out new things, and have successfully conquered some very challenging recipes, including cheesecake (from scratch, the old fashioned way), and croissants.

Not that anyone asked. :D

[urgeok]

Vodstok is trying to take over all of the forums !

Ummm....yeah I have seen a wombat, just not in the wild - seen them in zoo's. More likely to see kangaroos roaming around the bush. They're everywhere!

Koala's are my favourite though. They rock!

And yeah I Cheeba and I must live pretty close. As he mentioned, we have both been to the lowenbrau... and it is a weird building from what I recall. I remember that the toilets were on the outside of the building... :confused:

[Cheeba V2.0]

You like kangaroos, ISK?? I like 'em to EAT, but that's pretty much it, silly animals. Have you tried one?
I hate koalas too, but I have a soft dpot for wonbats for some reason...I remember the one on ACP, from way back when I was a kid, I met it once.:D twas like some kinda giant guineapig/rat hybrid chubby lil' guy.

I remember the lowenbrau is in one of Sydneys first buildings, the area it's in is basically the oldest part of the city now. The ceiling inside is just the original wooden structures holding all the rocks up, with some lamps hanging from them...looks very rustic, but kinda cool, it's not a very bright place inside, but that's what I liked about it...as for the toilets, I think by the time I needed to take a piss, I'd sunk about a stein and a half so I probably relied on those I passed by to get to and from my table, I don't have much recollection..good ale..
I'm in hornsby man, urself?
I'm gonna hit the lowenbrau for my birthday next year, maybe u could rock up yknow? aaanyways

[filmmaker2]

I like this talk about wombats and getting drunk. Seems a good kinda topic.

[dr. pheobs]

cheers to beer!

[gren]

i LOVE wombats!!!! kangas, dingos, koalas, all of em!! just love aussie animals. defiitely wanna get there one day!

I'm in Carlingford... near Parramatta.

Yeah, let me know closer to your birthday and if I am not working (I am a shift worker :() I will definately come and say hi.

And...nope never eaten kangaroo. I don't think I would like it. I have heard their meat is pretty tough. Is it?

[gren]

so i just made some sweet potato fries and im wondering what the hell to eat em with

right now im using ketchup, and red pepper salt. the "," signifying the 2 being seperate and not together

anyway, any suggestions? i read also some curry mayonnaise but im not really downw it mayo.

while on the subject, any gourmet type ideas for even regular fries? cheeba im looking in ur direction.... :D any comments would be greatly appreciated. i plan on makin fries tomorrow for lunch.. dinner... and breakfast probably too

[Cheeba V2.0]

ISK - No, it's not that tough, only if you overcook it. It's a learn as you go type thing it cooks "differently" to most meats you'll have tried, but if it's even slightly overdone, yes, it's rubber. Prepared properly, it's awesome...I either roast mine or bbq it.
Usually, it's less than 2% fat which appeals to me greatly. The taste is a little like beef, a little like venison.
It's worth a try if you ask me, just make sure to get some instruction from your butcher, as yes, its a little "sensetive".




Gren
Well....these are two of my recipes that'll be appearing in the vulgar gourmet, but....have a sneak peek, both should go rather well with fries.

Garlic Sauce:
plain yhogurt (2 small tubs)
a little salt,
garlic cloves
minced garlic
cracked pepper
oregano
Whole-grain mustard to taste.
Serve chilled OR hot.

Spicy Sourcream Sauce
sour cream
birdseye or habanero chilli
garlic
ginger (very finely chopped)
preferred bbq sauce
a little pulped tomato.
Serve chilled.

Other than those, you could make a guacemole type thing I suppose, but if you want MY recipe, you'll have to wait for the grand opening SOMETIME of TVG (that recipe coming your way soon, Vod).
Right now I can tell you to start with avocado...

I find generic curry powder works quite well with sweet potato fries for seasoning....uh, paprika maybe some powderised kaffir lime leaves?
as for sauces, those I mentioned above should be fine...however, mixing hickory bbq sauce with whole egg mayo, a splash of worcestershire and some cajun seasoning makes for a pretty nice, simple sauce...
Hope that's of some assistance.

- B.

OK. You have talked me into it. I will give it a try soon. I will let you know how I go with it.
Yes, 2% fat is a good thing! Can you put tomato sauce on it? ;)

Thanks for the above ideas.

Gren- You like fries do you? I have to say that I love them also. Fries with chicken salt, fries with tomato ketchup, fries with honey bbq sauce, fries with smoked hickory bbq sauce (as mentioned above - LOVE that stuff) fries with gravy etc etc.

Actually I think I like the condiments more than the fries... :confused:
