I’m doing the leftover thing today. …leftover stuffing. …leftover turkey. …leftover turkey and stuffing thrown together with a little gravy and a side of homemade cranberry sauce (my recipe here) made a very tasty evening meal. …and all made on the stove top. LEFTOVER STUFFING and TURKEY BAKE makes 4 servings (Yay! leftovers from the leftovers!) what you will need 4 cups stuffing 2 cups chopped […]
Last can of tomatoes… Last onion… My little alcohol stove filled with the last of the fuel… And this Galley Kat has run out of creative ideas… …almost… I made a batch of my Two Ingredient Tomato Sauce for a simple pasta supper tonight… …but being ever conscious of time and stove fuel economy, I doubled the amount of pasta we needed. This gave […]

When I was a kid my Mom used to, very rarely, buy a pint of fresh oysters in their liquor, to make the most memorable rich oyster stew. I’ve never made it myself but I can close my eyes and still bring back the sensory memories of how it tasted.. all buttery and creamy. From our feast of Steamed Garlic Leek Mussels, I had a […]
Another inspiration from RecipeTin Eats The second best thing about delicious risotto is having leftovers… and as Francois said last night when I made my really yummy Pumpkin Risotto ‘You should make this more often’. Luckily I had just enough left to make tonight’s even more yummy Pumpkin Arancini. Usually arancini are little risotto balls coated with bread crumbs and fried. To keep the galley […]
I make these tasty crunchy pancakes often… Vegetarian or with meat added they are an easy fix at home or on the water. (link to my usual recipe for Okonomiyaki ) When we provisioned last we bought a small package of broccoli slaw so instead of all that chopping and julienne-ing I am using them for a quick and easy supper tonight… EASY […]
Let’s begin with the important stuff… BLACK VELVET COCKTAIL 1/2 flute champagne 1/2 flute Guinness Do you really need any more instructions? I can suggest three options: Option # 1 Half fill the flute with bubbly. Over the back of a spoon gently pour Guinness into flute. This way the densities of the two will remain separate…. so they say… Couldn’t quite get […]

Yep! that’s right…pasta… PASTA FRITTATA 2 cups kale greens 1/4 cup shredded carrots 2 + cups leftover spaghetti with sauce (link to last night’s yummy pasta dinner) 6 eggs 1/2 cup of milk 4 oz […]
I was thankful that there was some polenta leftover from my first pressure cooker attempt last night…. Cook once – eat twice I sliced the remaining bits of polenta, heated some compound butter in the pan, fried until crispy brown on both sides. Served with a drizzle of maple syrup… The perfect combination of savoury with a hint of sweet.
