Ooh, I'm printing that one! Very nice.
I just went sausage and lentil shopping and I'm trying out your lentil recipe tonight, Raff.

We do a Basque version of paella with chicken, chorizo sausage, black olives and orange segments which is very close to jambalaya in flavour and spiciness (http://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/chicken-basque,1321,RC.html) |

What?

By the way, it's spelled crayfish, but is pronounced mudbug.
![]() You might be able to get some in your area in spring. Here's a cool link for you: http://www.cajun-shop.com/dwcrawfishcooking.htm Not sure I'd order anything from them as they are kind of pricey. Edited by Slartibartfast - February 28 2009 at 07:36 |

As far as I know, jambalaya is a Creole version of paella - not surprising, since Louisiana belonged to Spain before it was turned over to France. I have a number of recipes for both, and the cooking method is the same. I don't think it is particularly troublesome to make, unless you use mussels, which need to be scrubbed before cooking (other than that, they're very easy to deal with).
As to crayfish, I am not sure they can be found here, but if they are, I'll definitely try something. |

So, a little Creole in ya? Done anything with crayfish yet? Sounds good and I promise not to offer up any beads for you to show me certain body parts. By the way haven't seen anyone talking about Paella unless I missed it. Haven't made it myself yet, pain in the ass it seems. But related to some of the dishes mentioned recently.

You should try it, David, it's very easy... Actually, it's very similar to risotto, in that the rice is slowly cooked in the liquid - though some of the stages differ. Once you have got all your veggies chopped, it's a breeze to put together. I generally make it in a heavy, nonstick skillet, while I make risotto in a deep saucepan, also nonstick (though I brought two excellent, stainless-steel saucepans from Italy).

You should've been here on Tuesday (Mardi Gras), when I made a textbook-perfect jambalaya with andouille sausage and shrimp, and a decadent bread pudding with chocolate and orange marmalade ![]() |

Cooking the hard-way isn't much more time consuming than nuking a ready meal (unless you've got an industrial microwave or access to a 10 cm airfield radar klystron [I've done that too - a meat-pie just fits in the wave-guide - just have to remember two things - 1) remove the pie from the foil tray first and 2) turn off the transmitter before putting your mits anywhere near it!!]). I can probably prep a whole meal in only a few minutes more than it takes for most people to unwrap the packaging and decypher the cooking instructions on a cook-chill. How long can it take to throw a handful of herbs at a piece of lamb and slam it in the oven?
While it's cooking there's not much to do except crack open a bottle of wine, kick back and listen to some tunes...
Prog songs make pretty good kitchen timers.... How do you like your boiled eggs? Try using the Angel's Egg method - Sold To The Highest Buddha for soft, I Never Glid Before for medium and Other Side Of The Sky for hard.

maple syrup and sausage do go together beautifully, I often make a hash of Hungarian or Polish, potatoes, onion, green pepper, and a healthy shot of real maple while cooking in a skillet, some sea salt and plenty of black pepper of course
speaking of Kraft, I finally found a store near me that sells the white cheddar mac&cheese in a box, hate the orange stuff |

... or a huge (and I mean HUGE) glug of balsamic vinegar (the cheap'n'cheerful stuff - no point in being needlessly extravagant) which will also reduce down to a nice sticky gravy.
