Some of you may know Vader is a hobby chef and Gordon Ramsey stole the term "Hell's Kitchen" from him.
Anyways, I browsed my HD and found these pics from
Vader's True Hell's Kitchen and I thought I might as well share. So here's some of the stuff I prepared ...
next to my wife and daughter the love of my life.
oven roasted vegetables
sushi & stuff
Kung Pao chicken
duck breast on Chinese vegetables
antipasti (filled tomatoes and 'shrooms)
more antipasti (marinated chanterelles, grilled zucchini and sweet pepper filets in olive oil)
chopped veal Zurich style with fried potato cake (Swiss national dish)
paella with seafood from the barbie
pizza with tomatoes, mozzarella (fior di latte) and fresh basil
pumpkin ragout on tagliatelle
chicken-banana skewers with raisin rice and glaced ginger carrots
chicken soup (I love that pic)
the day after the soup: chicken fricassee with 'shrooms and asparagus
crawfishtail salad on mango carpaccio.
onion tart xxl
duck served two ways on potato cream with red cabbage and lingonberry sauce
Roast pork and crackling with carrots, kohlrabi and bread dumpling (very German)
vanillemousse with raspberries in chocolate mesh. It still needs some fruity sauce and icing sugar on top.
red thai beef curry, rather mild
one of my pasta favorites:
penne all'arrabbiata. (pasta has been pre-cooked and needs to cook
al dente in the sauce now.)
Kisir (turkish bulgur salad)
filled vegetables with raisin rice
Tandoori chicken (back left: Teriyaki chicken, right: chinese spareribs)
safron Risotto with Chantarelles
I'd kill for this:
ragù alla Bolognese with tagliatelle - never use spaghetti with this ragù)
punpkin-ginger soup with lime
another classic from over here: filled sweet peppers with tomato sauce
the
sous-chef de cuisine (deputy kitchen chef) at work. Handles the knife like a pro.
On a side note: taking "good" pictures of food seems to be harder than cooking it.
