Friday Flashback To That Saturday Session With Meryl & Rishi!

Every Night Ain't  A Turn-Up Night. Learn To Sit Your Ass Down A Night Or Two!!!

Here's a lil' something that'll make you move -  Spinnin' Sessions - 220 [Guest Mix by Jay Hardway]

The weekend can turn out to be quite the ball-buster, so every now and again I choose to call up a couple of my friends and plan out a day of chill & fun at home itself.

On the off chance that one might be in the mood of a home-cooked meal, choose to cook something that won't keep you in the kitchen the whole time. I think pasta is the best go-to, quick and yummy, I've never gone wrong with pasta. To make things more fun, mix up different kinds of pasta: Spaghetti, Spirelli, Farfalle.

Don't overwhelm yourself with the tasks at hand in the kitchen. Get your friends into the feel of it, I'm sure they'd find it fun.

Ingredients:

Pasta Of Choice
Capsicum/Bell-Peppers (hollowed)
Tomatoes (chopped)
Minced Meat 500g
Cheddar Cheese
7 cloves of Garlic
Black Pepper powder
Salt
Olive Oil
Garlic Butter
Mixed Italian Herbs
3 Eggs
Bread Crumbs

Prep.:

In a deep-bottom vessel, boil water with 2 tablespoons of salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. As the water comes to boil, drop in the pasta. Once the water begins to boil over again, remove from heat/flame, and let the pasta soak on for 20-30 minutes. Strain, replace in previously used dish, and pour chilled water, soak for 5 minutes. Drain the water and set aside for use later.

As accompaniment, I chose to have two sides of nibbles.

Meatballs & Grilled Cheese Stuffed Peppers

For the stuffed peppers, you must hollow out the peppers of all seeds etc. Wash and dry. The stuffing consists of an olive oil saute of a mixture of chopped tomato, chopped garlic, crushed mixed Italian herbs & salt and a portion of the minced meat.

Once the mince has cooked through, give a final good stir. Take the peppers and start stuffing, up to the brim.

Use Slices of Cheddar Cheese Cut Into Strips

Set oven to 220°C/428°F for 5 minutes. Open and check status. You can remove and plate the peppers at this point, although I'd suggest an additional 7 minutes in the oven set at 140°C/284°F.

With the remaining portion of the minced meat, prepare mixture for the meatballs. Add salt, black pepper powder, 3 tablespoons of melted garlic butter, a tablespoon of olive oil. Mix everything vigorously.

Whisk the eggs for egg-wash for the meatballs. Crush a bit of mixed italian herbs with the bread crumbs. Make balls of the mince-mix as per wanted size.

On a pan heat 3 tablespoons of garlic butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Coat the meatballs first in the breadcrumbs, then give it an egg-wash, repeat the process 3 times, ending with a final coat of crumbs. With the heat/flame at high, place the meatballs on the pan. Baste and fry until color begins to change to almost brown.

Plate Up!

Bring out the wine, or just enjoy sipping on some cola instead, as we did that night.

Have an awesome weekend!

You are awesome!
Stay Awesome!
