Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[Jii]

Since this weekend it's really crowded in the area where I live because of the 1st of may festivities and I hate it, I've stocked up on food and drink and movies and am spending all weekend locked up inside. All the streets and parks are absolutely packed with drunken people who basically just behave like pigs (sorry Seul). But I'm nice and cosy inside and that's what matters!

I decided to make some north african/arabian inspired food today:

Pita bread
Chicken patties with north-african spices (coriander, jeera, sesame, almonds etc.)
Lentil-spinach salad
Aubergine paste
Hoummous
Yoghurt sauce

Asolutely superb if I say so myself! These recipes will be added to my favorite recipe book!

Looks real good, and Jii, I feel ya, I'd hate to live in the middle of those drunkards…I have similar plans like you.

[Jii]

Yeah, it's bad now but it was a complete nightmare when I had my dog. The streets are basically covered in broken bottles and piss and random junk so I couldn't even walk him properly. Even though I absolutely love living here these two days are a bit too much. Better that way though. Hauskaa vappua!

[injunjack]

Hauskaa Vappua vaan sinnekkin, ja muille Suomipojille…
just nyt täällä sataa kaatamalla

the rain might resolve your drunken people around problem somewhat 

[injunjack]

so Rocket you speak finnish, or have you planted cameras here like Beats did to Geo?

Should I get paranoid?

[rocket]

maybe

lets say modern technology is sometimes handy…

[injunjack]

starts to look around hidden cameras or suspicious new stuff that wasn't here a while ago

[rocket]

btw I had the chance some time back to visit a company that is one of the world leaders in spy tech stuff and got some inside look and you would never find these cams etc. without tech equipment or pure luck, unbelieveable…

[rocket]

and Jii, looks really tasty!

one last thing, I'm not sure if the pink ballerina's, you got in last month, will really suit you

@Geo:

at the start of this thread i promised that if the topic took off i would create an Iron Heart cookbook from the contributions

well - imo the thread has been a great success and so a huge thanks for all the fantastic contributions to date (please, please keep 'em coming!); so . . . here are the beginnings of how i am imagining the e-book might take shape (thinking along the lines of retro lookbook rather than actual recipe book):

Inside Cover

Wow.
For some reason I just saw this.
I'm so honored/embarassed/honored…

Seriuosly though...very cool idea and great looking layout.
I'll definitely do my best to whip up a contribution.

Kat - already got your famous meatballs in the mix but anything else would be great

Btw - hope you don't mind me using your pic . . .

[injunjack]

Geo, my confusion was because I couldn't imagine that a scotsman would know what we called our old money after going to €. Remember? 

and Rocket, you start to scare me:

luckily our house is shotgun guarded 5 days a week, you guess which ones
