holiday meals when you’re a trained chef but cooking for picky white people

turkey obvs, packed with garlic and onion in lieu of the stuffing (unsafe)

gravy made in the roasting pan

mashed potato

two different stuffings because we’re picky in different ways on it

ginger-glazed carrots because the gf wants those every night

i homemake a great cranberry sauce but gf is too picky, won’t eat cranberry sauce with chunks, only acceptable if it’s that canned stuff >=(

been in a cast for six weeks so i haven’t been able to cook. still in a boot and can’t walk without it, but i’m trying to cook easy stuff again

top is just some stuff i could put in the oven and leave for a while. spicy sausage, roasted acorn squash, and beets. bottom is apple pie mini-pancakes

just a food pic spam, in my adventures of cooking for some pennsylvania white people who hate food

1) breakfast for nekekur actually, who flew out for her birthday a while back. whipped cream, strawberry syrup, and candied nuts all made from scratch

2) meat-starch-vegetable dishes are really interesting if you make a sauce from leftover dark liquor and chicken stock (buy bone-in chicken, debone it before cooking, use the bone for stock). that sauce is from passion fruit mead iirc

3) they wanted salisbury steak with buttered noodles on the side. i made the salisbury sauce into one that could just go other the noodles because honestly......

4) the gf’s dad has a thing for white chili. never heard of it but it was well received

5) spaghetti is my thing. i don’t use anything jarred or canned, that’s from whole tomatoes dudes B) and herbs from a garden i keep

6) tonight’s dinner, aka i was too lazy to cook a full meal. corn obvs, and bratwurst with some apples and onions

#AnongBaonMoChris S05E04! . Paella con Pollo 🇪🇸👨🏽‍🍳 . Tapping into colonial influences for this week’s meal prep! Given the recipe lacked more kick with just chili powder, I opted to add a pinch of chili flakes; Also went with chicken on the side instead of mixing it. Sabi nga ng backpack ni Dora: “¡Nomnomnom, delicioso!” #WehChris . #ChrisCooks #instagood #instafood

#AnongBaonMoChris: Fishda Edition! . Southwest Cream Dory with Boiled Vegetables and Turmeric Rice 👨🏽‍🍳 . Taking a break from chicken breast ~swimming~ onto fish! Original recipe was smoked but since I got no time, I went to the pan 😭 The turmeric rice was a last minute change but its subtle flavor really complemented the heat of the spice mix!👌🏽 . #ChrisCooks #instagood
