Default Thursday lunch

Cooking right now and almost finished -

Very large potato cubed
Medium-large onion cubed
Some cubed Spam

All fried until very browned, almost blackened.
(in oil and butter combined)
Will serve with some Gramma.R signature applesauce.
And a buttered piece of bread.

It's enough for two meals, easy.

I'm off to my weekly lunch out. Greek salad, fresh bread and olive oil
for dipping. Ice water to drink.

Well, I'll be home all day and I need to decide what to do with 2 pounds of
extra lean ground beef (aka, mystery meat). I need to either do something
like a meatloaf or vacuum seal it and freeze it.

Sounds good. I'm overdue for shrimp. I'm waiting for a good sale
again. They come often enough.

I meant to do that for the 2nd helping last night but forgot.
Last week I did do a microwaved potato then turned into lumpy
mashed potato. I did top that with a juicy over-easy egg. Broke
the yolk over it and it was very delicious.

Not something I have ever made. Do I see that you part cook your
potatoes first?

Mentioned it to D and he fancies it <g>

Assuming you're asking about the combo of potato, onion and spam:
- Microwave the potato until almost done then cube it
I often leave it in too long and it's fully cooked but
that's ok. Cubing it then, it will tend to fall apart
some but that's ok too.
- then put cubed potato, raw choppen onion, and
Spam right from the can into a frying pan with a
little oil and butter and brown it all stirring
once or twice but do let it sit cooking long too.

The applesauce on the side is a good compliment.
Also a juicy fried egg on top would be good.

For the microwaved "chunky mashed potato" only,
Just microwave it until done but in 2-3 steps.
Cook for a couple of minutes, let it sit for 4 minutes
then flip over and microwave again. If a large potato,
you might have to do that a 3rd time.

Then cross cut it using a knife and spoon, turn the bowl
sideways and cross cut again with some butter and S&P.
Do this turning and cutting a few times until texture
is how you want it and butter and S&P is mixed in.

Again, applesauce on the side and a juicy egg
on top is a good thing.

I like Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray tonic with a pastromi on seeded rye but you
can keep the rest of your TIAD slop.

You can buy it by the case from Amazon; your kind of shopping.

Nothing else with the cottage cheese? Isn't that kind of blah by
itself?
