Homestyle Food #2

As the bloating from Christmas subsides, I get over the fact I witnessed the first regular season loss for the Indianapolis Colts in nearly two seasons and we clock up 2350 miles in the car since our arrival in the US I figure it is time for another post.

The latest foods:

• Pecan Pie (in fact all the pies)
• Prime Rib (What do we call this in Aus?)

Well I am drawing a bit of a blank right now, but some of the dishes that I have served with some success over here have been:

• Apricot Rissotto
• Roast Lamb on a bed of cous cous with Moroccan Spices
• Frenched Lamb Chops
• Marinated Portabello Mushroom Steaks

Before I leave I still have to cook:

• Apricot Chicken (and Risotto from the remaining sauce)
• A stirfry (I am thinking Honey-Soy-Sesame sauce)
• More Mushies.

Homestyle Food

As a bit of a record, I would like to note the great food that I have consumed here in the USA. I don't think I will comment on the Fast Food unless it is of particular greatness or rareness, but instead the homestyle dishes.

The favourites so far (along with a pledge to do something like this myself):

• Slow Cooked Angus Roast - I will add a slow cooker to my wishlist
• Creamy Mashed Potatoes - Mash them with an electric handwisk
• Cornflake Potato Bake - Get this recipe!
• Philly Cheescake Premix - Tell my Grandma, that the US don't even make this bit themselves
• Cool Whip - apparently it is Sweet Substitute (also tell my Grandma)

I will be sure to keep you all updated
