Sirloin Steak

-


Some people like their steak, Rare (slightly bloody) or Medium well ( not really bloody, but still red in the center) and others Well done (no red at all, fully cooked). I am one who likes my steak really well done. I cooked a really good piece of sirloin steak. I rubbed it well with olive oil and just seasoned it with a little salt and pepper. I rubbed in the seasoning. Massaging it into the meat for tenderness and evenly distributed seasonings. Then I simple fried it in a sauce pan with just a little bit of oil for a few minutes on medium heat until the beef was cooked to my likings. I fried an egg and put it on top of the beef. Eating them both together was really tasty.

Along side my beef I made this really delicious type of a potato family called Yuca or Cassava. I boiled it just as I would if I were boiling potatoes until it was soft. ( about 10 minutes.) then in a small pot I  filled it half way with canola oil and allowed it to get hot first and I threw in my yuca peices and fried it as if I were frying french fries. After frying it for about 5 mints until it is light brown I took it out of the oil and dried it on a few peices of paper towel to remove the excess of oil. Once that was done I lightly sprinkled a little salt on top. OH MY GOODNESS... THIS WAS DELICIOUS... I tastes better than french fries. I told my husband they should have this as an option in McDonalds and Burger King. This is really good. To me it is much tastier than french fries by far... I ate so much of it. I had to force myself to stop.

Put together with my succulent beef and fried egg on top this blend was extremely good.

    Thank you Mrs Elise. I am really enjoying to learn how to cook. Cassava seems like an interesting vegetable. I also like my steak Medium well.

    Before reading your blog, I was quite indifferent to cooking. I was in a bad space and reading your blog and learning how to cook a basic meal and other delicious things, really helped me.

    I'm definitely not in the bad space I was in then, I'm blessed to have a true relationship with my God. He is the One who inspires me to be the woman that He wants me to be. Your blog was one of the tools that He provided me with.


    I just want to say thank you for allowing God to use you in this way. May He continue to make you a blessing!

    Many kisses
    Lisa

Do you get a white ooze when cooking Salmon?

-

Does your salmon often look like this when you cook it? Tried baking, frying, poaching it but this stuff keeps coming out? Quick tip: when cooking salmon it is common for a white sort of cream to come oozing out all around the fish. Though it does not affect the taste. It can be found to be annoying and not pretty. But I found the trick to solving this problem, it happens because salmon is an oily fish, there are many oils within the fish itself. When cooking all of these oils come out in the form of this white ooze, normally from my own experience, when this happens the fish tends to become dry. Because now all of that moisture and oils meant to keep the fish succulent and juicy was just taken out. I found a solution to this problem. To keep all the oils locked in, you need to dry out the surface of the fish.  Before seasoning drizzle a little bit of vinegar on the fish and rub it in well. Continue your seasoning process. You will see that your problem will be resolved. ...

Well my mom and grandma were  both born in Furna - Brava, Cape Verde also known for its portuguese name as CaboVerde. A portuguese speaking Island off of the coast of West Africa. Me in CapeVerde In CapeVerde just like in any other Country there are many traditional dishes such as 2 of the main ones. Cuscus - a breakfast bread and Cachupa- a heavy soup for lunch. These are 2 of my favorite Capeverdian foods along with others such as funginho, gigacida, and the list goes on. Cuscus is a breakfast food. For those of you who don't know what it is, its similar to a corn muffin or a corn type of bread. It is made fresh and eaten whilst hot off of the stove spread with loads of butter to melt nicely on top. I love eating this with my favorite rasberry tea. Some of you might hate i...

Ingredients 2 cups hominy corn 1/2 cup evaporated milk 1 1/2 cups coconut milk 1/2 cup water 3/4 cup condensed milk 1/2 cup cornstarch 1/2 tsp nutmeg 2 tsp vanilla extract pinch salt How to make it: Soak hominy corn in water for a few hours or preferably overnight (If you are making this in a rush and don't have time to presoak your hominy corn. No problem it will just take a little longer to cook because soaking softens the corn.) Put your hominy corn in a pot with about 2 1/2 to 3 cups water and boil on medium high heat for about 30 minutes or until they are very soft that you can cut it with a knife or poke it with a fork. and the water is nearly gone Lower your heat to medium low and take half of your coconut milk and mix in the cornstarch to it until smooth.
