Top Chef in my kitchen
Cooking Just Cause January 15th, 2009Every week I watch Top Chef and it kind of makes me want to cook something, yes I am Goddess of Our Kitchen. Notice I didn’t say THE kitchen. I know where I belong. So in honor of the previous week’s episode, I made a dish inspired by, duh… the previous week’s episode.
I give you… (drumroll) Italian Stalliovis. Fabio is a ravioli machine and I wanted to see if I could pull it off.

Oh yes, I rolled that out with my own two arms, the arms that this morning now hate me. Has anyone ever thought of a cooking workout tape?

Dee-licious filling of venison, ground beef, adouille sausage, mushie shrooms and thyme. Yes, my fingers resemble the shape of baby carrots. I have fat fingers!!! (sob)

Creamy red sauce that I wanted to lick out of the pot.

Mixed the filling with some cottage cheese and egg and got to fillin’ em up.

Final dish. The biggest raviolis I have ever stuffed into my face. Why did that sound dirty? I love stuffing things into my face! (snicker)
Thanx to G for taking pics, bringing wine and oh yeah, breaking the fucking wine opener. Geez.
Update: The red sauce that leaps off the screen was just a can of plain tomato sauce, jazzed up with red pepper flakes, 5 cloves of garlic and finished with half a cup of heavy cream.
