When I was growing up there was the Galloping Goumet and Julia Child. Other guys were watching Combat and I was watching cooking shows. Then came Justin Wilson and Pierre Franey and that strange frugal gourmet guy Jeff Smith. Now there is the food network and also Create network. My wife records Lidia Bastanich every day so we can watch it at night. Rachel Ray has become her own corporation. Bobby Flay took Southwest to another dimension and and we all watched as the that chef lost his business in the reality show. The list is endless.
The weekend is starting and half the country is going to try a recipe they got from Jaques Pepin or Mariane Esposito. So tell me please, who is your favorite celebrity chef and why?


Paula Dean is also my favorite as well as iron chef challenges. Reading this post I was trying to remember name of cooking show I used to really get a kick out of--two older English women on motorcycle--partner rode in the side car? Made interesting dishes and very entertaining--can't think of the name of this one...

Wow, i like that show! Also Gordon's show Kitchen Nightmares! YIKES! They showed a kitchen in an Indian Rest last night and OMG! It was INFESTED with roaches and rats!

Sorry Kash, here ya go:
Meat Pie Filling
1 pound ground meat
1 pound ground pork meat
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 pod garlic, minced
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
Salt, black pepper and red pepper to taste
1 tablespoon flour

Meat Pie Crust
1 quart plain flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
1/2 cup shortening + 1 T
1 cup milk

Instructions:

Melt shortening in heavy pot. Add meat. Cook until pink is gone. Add vegetables and season to taste. (Season well, as meat will lose seasoning during frying.) When meat is completely done and vegetables glazed, remove from heat and drain excess liquid. Stir in 1 tablespoon flour.

Sift dry ingredients together. Cut in shortening. Beat egg and add to milk. Work gradually into dry ingredients until proper consistency to roll. Break into small pieces and roll very thin,. Cut into rounds using a saucer as a guide.

To assemble:
Place a large tablespoon of prepared meat along edge and halfway in the center of round dough. Fold the other half over, making edges meet and seal with water. form edges with fork. Drop in deep fat and cook until golden brown. Drain and serve hot. Makes approximately 18

There ya go,
Ang
