DMK:

I have a very old recipe for Dolmethes

thank you very much. My grandfather was from Lesbos (Lesvos). He came here about 1912. I’ve never been there but was close… Avylik in Turkey. I belong in such a country… Greece or Turkey. You are right on about the lemon sauce.

Texas Toast Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Ingredients

slices Texas toast thick bread
2 cheese slices
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon butter (or margarine)

Directions

Toast bread in toaster.
Preheat skillet over medium heat.
Spread mayonnaise on each slice of bread.
Place both slices of cheese between the two slices of bread (on the mayonnaise side).
Melt butter in the skillet.
Place the sandwich in the skillet with the butter.
Use a spatula to turn sandwich from side to side until cheese is melted.
When the cheese is melted and the outside is crispy and browned to your taste, remove the sandwich and cut into your favorite shape (diagonal, or half, or into four squares).

Oh Man my wife grilled Pork Steaks last night. I swear these things were an inch and a quarter thick and so juicy. We had grilled zucchini and peas and onions in olive oil…Man was it good.

That looks awesome!

I wanted to post a picture of something I made but don’t quite know how to post pictures yet. Sigh

More chicken tonight. Some BBQ, some breaded, both baked. Canned asparagus on the side. It was a bit hot for baking, but the bounty was worth it.

So tonight for dinner another Greek recipe:

Sauteed Chicken

3 lbs chicken - I use thighs or drumsticks. You need the skin on this
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup white wine
3 tomatoes, finely chopped
1 anchovy fillet
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 teaspoon savory
1 teaspoon marjorm
1 bay leaf
3 leaves fresh basil (or more)
1/2 cup greek olives (no pits)

Season the chicken with salt and pepper and brown in the olive oil. Have a bowl or plate ready if you need to do this in batches.
Add white wine
Bring to a simmer
Add tomatoes, anchovy, garlic and herbs
Simmer for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Add olives and heat for 5 or more minutes.

note: I precooked this and put into the oven overnight at 170. The chicken will be super tender and the flavors will meld together well. I serve over Spanish rice.

Not dinner, but we made angel food cake with confetti sprinkles for desert last night. A too little brown on the outside for my liking, but the inside was perfect and we gorged half the thing almost immediately.

Well done. Did you frost it or eat with berries or anything? I haven’t made one in years.

SixFoot · 2018-06-07T21:44:49.282Z

We ravaged it with our hands for about 5 minutes, then I had strawberries with mine, while she continued to ravaged it on the plate. lol

I saw you post that another day, so I tried liking nearly everything to see how much it took to reach a limit, but I never got there.

SixFoot · 2018-06-07T22:02:57.263Z

If I’m counting correctly, it 65 likes per day.

LucyLou · 2018-06-07T22:06:57.287Z

Oh, lol, I probably didn’t do that many
You’re a “likable” guy.
