A cast iron dinner
Â* On tonight's menu was hamburger steaks in mushroom gravy served with shredded frozen (well , I did cook them ...) hash browns and some glazed carrots . The only thing left is some gravy , I always make enough for leftovers because my wife likes it on scrambled eggs . I'll share the recipes if anyone wants them ... -- Snag Yes , I'm old and crochety - and armed . Get outta my woods ! |

I use a smaller cast iron skillet to cook a burger (I'm cooking for one) and small steaks. A larger one for crispy fried potatoes. Never for eggs. It doesn't matter how well seasoned the cast iron is, a coated pan has always worked better for me for eggs. Jill |

Sounds quite tasty. I bought an 8" store pumpkin pie yesterday. Only $2.99 Except for the probably inferior crust, it was a good deal. I'll have some of that today. If good, I'll buy another Monday for a Chrismas dessert on Wednesday. |

Â* OK , I posted the hamburger steak recipe already , so here's the glazed carrots - I assume you already know how to cook hash browns . I put about a tablespoon and a half of butter with about a quarter cup of light brown sugar and heat and stir over medium heat until the mixture caramelizes then add 1 can of drained sliced carrots . I season with a dash each of nutmeg and allspice plus about a quarter teaspoon of ground cloves . Stir well until the glaze coats the carrots well - the moisture remaining in the carrots will dissolve it into a syrup consistency . I usually let it simmer gently for a few minutes before serving so the flavors can permeate the carrots . -- Snag Yes , I'm old and crochety - and armed . Get outta my woods ! |

Hmmm...those carrots sound tasty, but mayhaps some bourbon in the glaze would "assist" the flavor "quotient"... ;-D -- Best Greg |

OK , I posted the hamburger steak recipe already , Oh I missed that(( D. loves burgers. Recently I have been making Chinese burgers and he loves them I would love to see yours! so here's the glazed carrots - I assume you already know how to cook hash browns . I put about a tablespoon and a half of butter with about a quarter cup of light brown sugar and heat and stir over medium heat until the mixture caramelizes then add 1 can of drained sliced carrots . I season with a dash each of nutmeg and allspice plus about a quarter teaspoon of ground cloves . Stir well until the glaze coats the carrots well - the moisture remaining in the carrots will dissolve it into a syrup consistency . I usually let it simmer gently for a few minutes before serving so the flavors can permeate the carrots . I will certainly keep this one Snag O |

Canned carrots are TIAD... exactly the same texture going in as out. Fresh carrots are not the least bit difficult to pare and candy; butter, brown sugar, honey, salt. white pepper... do not cook to mush. |

I cover them initially. When nearly done, put the cover aside, add some brown sugar and Chambourd. Stir to a syrupy consistency. I was out of that so I used a blood orange liquor with good results too. |

I cut up large "old" carrots into "diagonal" chunks and put them in a shallow pan with the juice of an orange and water to more or less cover. I let the water boil away (adding a little if the carrots aren't tender) and then add a chunk of butter and toss the carrots around so that they are glazed. |
