Omnia
This little breakfast treat was surprisingly easy. I stumbled onto the idea while reading an article about the sous vide method of cooking and wondered why I couldn’t recreate these in my stove top Omnia oven. The water bath method takes one hour of cooking time and since cooking fuel/electricity is at a premium on […]
He’s on a roll. Second Captain Cooks in less than a week (his last creation here). This time he made us an incredibly delicious fish dish in my daughter’s kitchen as we are currently homeless and at the time we hadn’t yet found a home for our boat. It is super easy to prepare. Just […]
With just one burner to cook our meals onboard I really have to pick and choose what will take centre stage in the galley. It’s why I’m usually careful about leftovers and how those leftovers can be reborn for another time. Tonight was one of those times for two cups of leftover mashed potatoes from […]
Ah, the versatility of the lowly meatloaf! So many ways to dress it up. So many different ways to season. It shows up quite often in my galley, providing variety, using different types of meats and oh, those leftovers. The one pictured below gave up the basics with slices of bacon-wrapped deliciousness, followed by […]
Now that the weather is improving…slowly…but any improvement is welcomed… I’m beginning to make plans for summer boat life. This means easy quick meals, prepared with simple fresh ingredients. Tonight’s meal was one of those winners…so much so that although I made enough for two servings we both wished we could have gone back for […]
We do love our fish. Haven't had a lot of luck catching the critters during our summers on the boat but we do dream someday of improving on this skill. When we are lucky enough to get hold of fresh fish it's a feast aboard. With a little pretending tonight I created this Portuguese dish […]
Today’s post is all about the cauliflower. So many things can be made with this unassuming vegetable. I think it’s OK to call a vegetable unassuming. One of my favourites is to use it to make a faux alfredo sauce which I mix in with my Three Cheese Hash Brown Casserole (recipe here) And for […]
This recipe is one of those zero-stress-company’s-coming kind of dinners. We have our condo up for sale and in the midst of making sure everything was clean and neat we also were expecting dinner guests, and on top of that we had scheduled three showings back to back just before guests were to arrive. So […]
I made this simple cod dish craving something warming and comforting wishing away those last few days of winter. Originally I’ve made it baked in a conventional oven but realized that it could easily be reproduced in my little Omnia Stove Top. Basic ingredients, readily available. Cod filets poached in milk… …then mixed together with […]
I’m chanelling my Irish roots today. Some tasty Irish Whiskey Baby Back Ribs (recipe here) are crisping on the grill as I write this and some delicious Colcannon (recipe here) has been prepared ahead and kept warm while I whip up a little deliciousness for dessert But since life is uncertain, we had dessert first.
