The Many Taste of Fatphil

[Fatphil32]

So, I was baking a chocolate cheesecake today, when I realized how BA some of these recipes I've been experimenting with are. So, I decided to share my love with cooking and the recipes in this thread. Each day I'll try to post a new recipe, that's usually quite simple to make. Feel free to post your own. Also, most of them will be healthy, as I'm pretty health concious.

Chocolate Cheesecake:
Ingredients:
- Two pounds of fat free cream cheese
- one box of fat free, sugar free chocolate pudding [can sub. flavors]
- one cup of baking splenda
- one tablespoon cinnamon
- one tablespoon vanilla extract
- four whole eggs [it's crucial to use the entire egg!]
- 4 oz. skim milk

Directions:
- Preheat over to 350 degrees
- Spray 9" baking pan with no fat cooking spray
- Heat cream cheese in large bowl in microwave for one minute to soften
- Add all other ingredients and blend very well using a blender or electric mixer
- Pour mixture into previously mentioned pan
- Bake for 40-50 minutes
- Now, this is optional, but will help. Turn off your oven, but leave the cheesecake in. This will give it that "cheesecake texture." Leave in there for two hours
- Refridgerate for four hours before slicing
- Slice and enjoy!

I l-o-v-e cooking. It's why I'm actually kind of excited to eat healthier, as I get to cook new recipes! Here's a new favourite of mine.

Feta Cheese Turkey Burgers

1 pound ground turkey
1 cup crumbled reduced fat feta cheese
1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
1/2 cup roasted red peppers, chopped
2 teaspoons dried oregano
A dash of black peppers

Just mix all the ingredients together, and grill for about 15 minutes or so. I like to put this in a pita with extra red peppers, some lettuce, and sundried tomatoes if I have any.

Only 270 calories!

BBQ Ground Beef Pizza:
Ingedients:
- One "Flat-out" [can be found at Wal-Mart]
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce

- 4oz. lean ground beef [i use 97/3, but it's very expensive.. we got an amazing deal on it, though]

Directions:
- Preheat over to 350 degrees
- Once oven is ready, throw in Flat-Out alone for seven minutes
- While it's heating, brown the ground beef
- Remove once it's cooked and spread on pizza sauce evenly

- Place back into over until the cheese has melted
- Pull out, cut up, and enjoy.... nom nom nom

I'll just put two recipes for now, since there pretty much both my favourite food.


Black Truffle Frittata
My nonna made this all the time, it's my favourite kind frittata.

You need...
Salt and pepper, how ever much you want, doesn't really matter too much.
6 eggs
1 medium black truffle, must be diced, plus a bit extra to sprinkle on top.
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 slices of prosciutto, cooked and diced
2 large potatoes, peeled, boiled, and sliced


Preheat your oven to medium heat.
Beat the eggs and add the salt and pepper in the bowl.
Stir in the truffle, prosciutto, and the potatoes.
Heat the olive oil in a 12' skillet on a stove until it's hot, make sure to cover the entire skillet.
Pour in the mixture with the eggs and potatoes.
DO NOT stir it, but lift up the edges to let the uncooked egg to flow under it.
When it's almost cooked, you transfer it from the stove to the oven, let it fully cook until it's golden.
When it's done take it out, sprinkle the truffle over top, and serve immediately.
Cut it the same way you'd cut a pizza.


Zabaglione
You'll need a double boiler for this.
8 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup Marsala wine, but since most of you are probably underage, you should take that out, though I'm not sure how it would taste without it...
Vanilla extract
Grated lemon peel
Cinammon


In the top part of the double boiler, beat the egg yolks and sugar. Simmer some water in the bottom part of the boiler, don't let it boil.
Add the cinammon, vanilla, and lemon peel, beat it for a few minutes.
Gradually add the Marsala, and beat it all together for 4-5 minutes or until it's soft and fluffy. If you're not adding the Marsala, I guess you should just continue beating it.
Serve it immediately in wine glasses and eat savoiardi with it.

Where in the world do you get truffles? Aren't they super expensive?

 

[BabyPiglet]

Where in the world do you get truffles? Aren't they super expensive?

Ahh, to live in Italy. Wouldn't it be wonderful?

 

[pigletgirl]

I think I would love it! The united states gets boring sometimes...lol

 

[acesupercoolme]

I'm not sure where you'd get truffles in the US, try an Italian, French or maybe a gourmet food store.
The black truffles are still pretty expensive, but not as much as the white ones, THOSE are insane.
You could also use truffle oil or powder, it's waayyy cheaper and it's what we use a lot.

I've got a lot to do today and don't have time to post a nice recipe, but here's one similar to what I make.

Chicken Enchiladas

[Fatphil32]

lol, I let this die quick.. Here's another one I just made. Make note, you'll need a wok for this recipe.

Asian Stir-Fry:
The Veggies and Chicken:
- 150 grams of mixed vegetables [I buy them pre-packaged]
*If you do not have them pre-packaged, then you'll need baby corn, small red peppers, water chestnuts, broccoli, ect.]
- 6 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into 1" pieces

Sauce:
- 2 tbsp. rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp. water
- 2 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 tbsp. red cooking wine

Directions:
- Heat wok to 350 degrees and then add 1 tbsp. olive oil and cover the bottom and mid-sides of the wok
- After it's heated add chicken and cook until it's close to done, or if using pre-cooked chicken breast, cook until it's no longer frozen
- Then add in vegetables and cook until the veggies are cooked or if using frozen veggies, until they thaw.
- Right before everything's done cooking, throw in the sauce and let it simmer for five minutes
- Make sure during the entire process you're constantly stirring. Use the sides of the wok by pushing the ingredients up and down it while cooking

Mmm time for my first unhealthy recipe.

Peanut Butter Fudge:
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 1/4 cups brown sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3/4 cup peanut butter [I use natural, but it doesn't matter]
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups of sugar or splenda

* Note - If you want peanut butter/chocolate fudge, replace the 3 1/2 cups of sugar with one box of FF, SF chocolate pudding mix

Directions:
- Melt the butter in a sauce pan, and then add in the milk and brown sugar
- Boil that combo for a few minutes, while constantly stirring
- Remove from the heat and add in the peanut butter and vanilla
- Then in a mixing bowl, pour the combo over the sugar and beat until well blended
- Pour into a baking dish [I used 8x8] and chill until firm.
- Cut and go to town... nom nom nom

I wish I could cook! I can do scrambled eggs, and pasta

I should try some of your recipes, I may butcher them though!

Here's a recipe for flapjacks I made last week:

Ingredients
80g brown sugar
40g butter
60g margarine
250g oats
Pinch of salt (optional)
Banana One
2 tablespoons honey

1. Melt the butter and the Margarine in a deep saucepan over a low heat
2. add the brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of honey and stir in until you have a brown paste
3. Mix iin the oats, if you find it easier add them in gradually stirring and covering the oats with the mixture
4. add a pinch of salt and continue to stir (if you really need to be healthy you can ignore the salt!)
5. Mash up the banana and stir in to the mixture (this may take sometime to make sure the banana is properly mixed in)
6. spread the mixture evenly over a non stick baking tray (or a greased baking tray). Smooth over with a knife until the mixture is even
7. Place the baking tray onto the middle shelf in a preheated oven (gas mark 5, 220 C) and bake for 15 minutes, checking the progress regularly. Take out when the mixture starts turning a darker colour.
8. Stand for a minute or two, then score the mixture with a knife into you portions
9. Cover the tray with something light such as a few pieces of kitchen roll and leave for up to 6 hours
