What's for Dinner #100 - The WFD Big 100th Edition - November 2023

How did you like the crab cakes? Are those MD style or the other kind?

I’ll get back to you on the other thread one of these days.

Happy 100th month! To celebrate, I made three courses, instead of my usual one or at the most two.

  1. Clams!

  1. Spinach salad with roasted maitakes and boiled egg.

  1. Swordfish with sweet and hot peppers (the hot pepper is balcony-grown, and I was glad to make use of it before everything freezes out there).

Salad, mac & cheese, roasted cauliflower, and “mystery beef” which I think was wagyu flap (especially judging from how I felt after gobbling up a bunch).

Gratuitous shot of sky on fire (I have missed these sunsets).

Gambas al Ajillo starting with Kenji’s recipe https://www.seriouseats.com/spanish-style-garlic-shrimp-gambas-al-ajillo-recipe. After making the seasoned oil and draining it off I added cherry tomatoes and then spinach to the pan briefly, once the cherry tomatoes had popped and the spinach was slightly wilted I removed it from the pan and continued with the recipe. Plated the shrimp and its oil :blush: over the vegetables. Delicious! :yum:

Beef and carrots from Sunday. Added peas, leftover roasted taters and served over egg noodles.
Perfect early November dinner.
