Burgers
"Uh-hmm!. That is a tasty burger. Vincent, ever had a Big Kahuna Burger?"
I always add some grated onion to the meat mixture, but this time I added far too much, and the patties suffered from a lack of internal integrity because of it. Oh well, you live and learn. 'Twas a bummer, because I got some great grill marks on the patties, as well as the buns.
But the fries look great, though. And they were great. Not perfect. Nothing is. But they were very nice. I do my fries in the oven, because I generally tend to avoid deep frying (I deep fry certain things, but well, if I can get a reasonable result without deep frying, I tend to go that way). I toss them in some peanut oil, flour, and various flavorings like garlic salt and cayenne pepper, or chili powder, or whatever I feel like; this isn't a fixed recipe. It' is a variation of something I saw Heston Blumenthal describe on egullet. Heston's recipe was far more refined and elegant, but dagnabbit, my spicy baked fries are tasty.
