OVERNIGHT STEEL CUT OATS


i really like the consistency of steel cut oats and all the nutrition that it comes with. the preparation, however, is tasking and i'd love to say that it's a labor of love that's worth it in the end, but i just don't have the time in the morning. so, when i found a recipe on thekitchn.com, i couldn't resist trying it. it has been very successful and the steel cut oats taste like i made them that morning, even if it's been a few days in the fridge.

  • 1 2/3 c steel cut oats
  • 4 c water
  • large pinch of salt
bring oats, water, & salt to a boil. simmer for 3 minutes, then turn off heat.

ladle oats & water into pint-sized mason jars. cover the jars tightly with their caps & rings. leave on the counter overnight.

the next morning put all but one jar into the fridge. stir the oatmeal in the jar and heat in the microwave for 2-3 mins. add in your favorite mix-ins (such as brown sugar, almonds, etc).

BESTILLA...MOROCCAN CHICKEN PIE

the first time i had bestilla was at a moroccan restaurant in san francisco, el mansour , which was served family-style. think along came polly -esque, minus the heat and profusely sweating ben stiller. great image to start a recipe entry, right? anyway, this dish is a meal in itself. the middle eastern-spiced chicken is wrapped in flaky phyllo dough and topped with powdered sugar, making it sweet & savory. i will say that this dish is tasking...this is the first time i used phyllo dough and it is incredibly fragile, but so worth it! i think this is one that will be made for special occasions only.

CHICKEN PICCATA & LEMON BRUSSEL SPROUTS

one of my favorite notes in food is sour, usually from lemons. a dish that i think really captures this flavor profile is chicken piccata. i love this and it's incredibly easy to make. the added bonus for me are the capers, which add to the sour note. it seems like there are ways to adjust this recipe by either using white wine and/or garlic, which i may experiment with, especially since i just prepared a julia child's moules a la mariniere recipe that called for these ingredients and it was super delicious (post to follow)! the other, very trendy side i wanted were lemon brussel sprouts. i've had and loved brussels with bacon, but to keep with the lemony theme, i found this extremely delicious recipe! it calls to add cheese, but i was fine without it. these combined may be too much of the same for some, but it is what i considered a perfect homemade meal.

KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (GAL-BI)

the first time i tried korean bbq short ribs, i was having dinner with a past boyfriend and his parents. it was pretty good, they had an indoor grill and we used that right at the table to grill these sectioned off morsel. but, the next time i tried them, i felt like it was the first time all over again. my favorite all-you-can-eat korean bbq restaurant is in mountain view, ginseng korean bbq & tofu . they have quality meats and the marinade is just right. and, if i'm in need of a quick fix, i go to westfield mall in san francisco to make my way to sorabol korean restaurant , where they have the best food court korean bbq i've ever encountered. so, when you love something so much, the best idea is to learn how to make it...and it turned out to be super easy.
