About this Cook
Single Mom, three children, busy life with work and sports, but look forward to cooking every day. Use cooking as an excuse to avoid housework :-)
My favorite things to cook
I'll try anything, but at least one new recipe a week.
My favorite family cooking traditions
The big turkey dinner at Thanksgiving, cocktail parties, and butter tarts (a Canadian specialty) at every event.
My cooking triumphs
Impressed a newspaper food critic and cookbook author at a dinner party where I cooked fresh breadcrumb crusted mahi mahi. Wish I could remember where I put that recipe!!
My cooking tragedies
Forgot the sugar in a double batch of banana bread. It was really quite horrible.

Chicken and Black Bean Casserole
I used left-over roasted chicken and added the corn as recommended, and about a cup of chicken broth as there seemed to be too little liquid for the rice, and I don't know about you, but I always cover a dish that has rice in it, which cooks the rice through in 45 mins. Also added a little cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper for seasoning.

Ginger Pork Stir Fry (with Mushroom)
I also doubled the sauce as recommended, but found the dish kind of bland. I served it over vermicelli noodles, but it was just missing something. Probably needed a little heat, and maybe a bit of oyster or hoisin sauce.

Roast Leg of Lamb with Rosemary
Delicious, and makes a wonderful gravy! I have also done this on the BBQ rotisserie and made gravy from the drip pan (just because I love my new BBQ).
