Dinner Sisters

Here we are, another ten episodes with all of you. This time, we’re celebrating with cool as a cucumber summer rolls in a peanut sauce you’ll want to eat with a spoon. Dessert is a berry delight with layers of cake, lemon curd whipped cream, berries, and a meringue topping. We couldn’t be happier to have you along for the ride. Hope you can join us for ten more.

Sometimes episode themes are easy to choose, and sometimes they grow a little more organically. Our alliterative episode this week, Fritters, Falafel, and Fishcakes, was absolutely the latter. Not to say we’re disappointed. Little cakes of fried goodness are always welcome at our dinner table. We hope you find a bit of crispy cake to love with a baked falafel recipe, a tender fritter with ham and zucchini, or a classic, comforting fishcake. We sure did!

A simple dinner can mean different things to different folks, from a bowl of cereal to roasting a chicken. Yotam Ottolenghi sets up his recipes in our latest cookbook review to reflect all perspectives on a simple meal. We found all kinds of dinners to love, from a rice noodle salad with poppy seeds, to crowd pleasing oven fries, to pappardelle with rose harissa. Simple, like the title of the book, while offering fresh flavors for any night of the week.

During social isolation, we have all turned to project cooking. A big roast, a complicated pastry dish, or just a beautiful roast chicken. Then, it’s dinner time and a big project doesn’t seem that fun while you and your family are hangry. Enter sheet pan meals, thank goodness.  We’re highlighting them this second time as a way to cut down on the fuss while still having a gorgeous dinner. Since this isn’t our first time with sheet pans we’re trying to break the mold a bit with a big pancake, a jambalaya-inspired tray bake, and a cheesy, crunchy pasta sheet. Crank your oven up high and get cooking!

All the recipe links are on our website:

A carton of eggs in the fridge can be a lifesaver on a hungry night. Making a quick omelette has saved our skins more than once. But weeknight meals can be more than scrambled eggs and the three recipes we tried definitely prove it.

The complete shownotes for this week's episode are on our website: https://dinnersisters.com/2020/05/25/episode-116-everything-eggs/

This weeks recipes:
Egg Curry by Cook with Manali
A mild, tomato curry with plenty of spice, perfect over rice. Manali’s clear and easy to follow directions were appreciated for ease on a weeknight. Make this with extra hard boiled eggs, the last of the tomatoes on the counter, and frozen peas the night before grocery shopping.

Avgolemono by My Family's Food Diary
Avgolemono is a creamy comforting soup with a bit of a punch from plenty of lemon. Filling but light enough for spring, this is a lovely soup for a cooler spring day.

Simple Carbonara by Food 52
Carbonara is a Dinner Sister classic; Betsy makes “eggs and bacon” pasta for her kids quite a bit. Frankly, what’s not to love about pasta, eggs, cheese, and bacon? Make this on a night where you need to soothe your soul.
