A new series I will be promoting on this blog is "Bachelor cooking". A cookbook of sorts that will feature some of my best "recipes". Living out on my own has really allowed me to "get to know" my "cooking" style, and I hope to share this with you.
Let's dive in.
Recipe One:
Summary:
First on our list is the Steak Flambe with Latin American Flavour Chips: a delightful dish served at some of France's finest restaurants. Unbeknownst to most, this dish can actually be prepared in the very comfort of your own home, and at a fifth of the price! Let's take a look at how.
Ingredients:
1. Turn up grill to 8/10. Put Steak in Frying pan and place on grill. Remove steak from frying pan, add Olive Oil, return Steak to frying pan and place on grill.
2. Let it sit for a while. Preferably while it cooks. Cut in half when you are able to get through it. Return to grill.
3. On a whim, decide you are putting this on Nachos. Grab Nachos from cupboard, grate cheese over nachos and place in microwave for 25 seconds.
4. Cut steak into strips. About yay [____]wide.
5. Remove Nachos, place steak on Nachos.
Serve
Once served, eat around the steak as it is very inconveniently placed and you are not sure if it is fully cooked. Eat nachos, return steak to microwave for further cooking. Eat steak slices.
Rating: 4 stars.
