Beef fillet marinated in yogurt, black pepper, onions and dried limes for 36 hours.

Absolutely delicious!

Dessert was affogato, an Italian recipe.

Vanilla ice cream and expresso coffee, with whole coffee beans on top.

Y'all eat well there, Saeed. Meat is too done for me but all the ingredients look fabulous.

The top pictures shows normally cooked kebab.

The one with onions and tomatoes is for me.

I have developed into a full human being, unlike some of you lot who eat meat like hyenas!

It all looks marvelous, Saeed. I had not heard of dried limes before, but have made Moroccan preserved lemons.

That does look good.

We use dried limes in our cooking quite a lot.

In stews we use them whole, just cracked so the liquid goes in.

For this recipe we crush them into small pieces.

The guests asked for Mexican last night.

Waaaay nicer than the one I had last night, Saeed, but I have an incompetent idiot for a cook.

Looks great Saeed but quit over cooking your meat

I think the issue is, but to be one of the dinner guests at Saeed's.

looks very tasty!

Chicken curry, jasmin rice, katchumbary and papadums.

I have to see this on the day that I am on a liquid diet.

Tomorrow we are having Crispy duck.

Friends come over to play soccer on the Sony PlayStation.

They have asked for crispy duck, as our chef has to cook it all day.

Beef and beans.

Green chilis are always good.

Our own recipe pizza!

Saeed,

I know you ain't from Brooklyn----so it ain't a Pizza! Cabisch? (sp)

Hip

A recipe is only as good as the food it makes.

This is my pizza recipe, and everyone loves it!

Tortilla chips with refried beans cheese and jalapenos is a Mexican dish.

We make our own recipe, and it is loved by everyone.

To me, it is like reloading.

Make the one best suits your purpose!

Saeed, I missed the crispy duck.

Sadly, we had a full blown PlayStation FIFA soccer match, and some bad losers, and I forgot to take pictures!

Tonight was the usual starter which is tortilla chips with refried beans jalapenos and cheese.

Main was from one of our very popular restaurants, Ravi's.

Dessert was ice cream with fruits, berries and coffee.

Tortilla chips and home made salsa, beef with okra and salad

Had a biriani last night. It was good, but would have been better with some diced apricots.

Biryani is best with lime pickle or mango chutney, as your taste.

I like both.

There also so many different recipes for biryani as well as curry.

We have a fantastic chef, and he searches for recipes we ask for and gives us a choice.

We have a get together 2-3 times a week at our house.

We always have normal food.

Non of the funny famous chefs silly recipes.

And our guests are thankful for that.

Ghanan roast chicken.

Spices and peanut butter.

Chicken paella has been requested for tonight.

Tomorrow Germany plays Hungary in the European Soccer Cup.

For that steak and sauerkraut was requested.

No other spices in the yogurt marinade above?

Yes there are, according to your taste.

Light peanut butter, with mainly chili powder, and any other you wish to add.

As with this chicken paela, some ingredients in the spices are changed as to taste.

Good with mango chutney.

Prime Angus ribeye steak.
Vegetable soup
Sauerkraut
Loaded potatoes.

This is another favorite.

Pakistani dish called chicken dansak.

It is chicken and lintels.

Sweet, crispy, beef.

Quail and rice with okra.

Saeed, y'all eat like kings! It all looks good.

Garlic and herbs mascarpone roasted chicken.

With wild rice and potatoes.

Wow. I need to do that chicken dish this winter.

A question, Saeed. Does Chef cook all the rice and taters first and add them to the chicken at roasting?

I think everything is cooked separately and finally put together in the oven.

First time we had this, it was great!

Tomorrow they have asked for the traditional English roast beef, with Yorkshire pudding.

We will have a chicken dish too as some prefer that to red meat.

That makes sense, Saeed. Thanks.
