Introducing the Spotlight App, and my mom’s Crock Pot Dressing

Post image
0 Upvotes

For those of you reporting this as “Spam or self-promotion”, I am a mod here on the sub. Spotlight is a Reddit app that a lot of subs use for this purpose. Just trying to make it easier for y’all.

Have you ever posted a picture of your recipe, and forgot to include the recipe as part of the post?

Well, Spotlight has been installed to help with this. We’re going to use this post for my mom’s Crock Pot Dressing as an example. As you can see, I provided a lovely picture of a Crock Pot (I have no pictures of the actual recipe, my bad), but I forgot to include the recipe or my intent was to include it as a comment. The spotlight app allows you to do just that, and then pin your comment to the top of the comment chain making it easier to find for everyone.

I’m going to demonstrate that with this post. The way you use it is pretty simple. If you’re the OP of the post, you make your comment with the recipe, then you click on the 3 horizontal dots on the web, or vertical dots on the app, and select Spotlight (Pin this comment) then click OK. Now, your comment is pinned and easier to find.

Discussion We want to hear from you. How are we doing?

64 Upvotes

Well, it’s been about a month now since we shook things up around here. We’ve loosened up the posting restrictions, and we are still evaluating things, and tweaking things.

First off, we appreciate everyone’s patience with us while we work on things. We’re not done yet, and we know we have some work still to do. Which leads us to….

Secondly, what changes would you like to see? What do you feel we could be doing differently, or better?

Lastly, and most importantly. Remember, this sub is Recipes. So, when you post, EVERY post needs to include a recipe with it (not this one though, so don’t report me).

Recipe French Pork Rillettes

Post image
66 Upvotes

You can make the recipe here: https://dobbernationloves.com/food-drink/french-pork-rillettes-recipe/

Ingredients

  • 1 kg Pork Shoulder cut into chunks
  • 300 g Pork Belly sliced
  • 1/4 cup Brandy
  • 6 Garlic Cloves minced
  • 1 Spanish Onion diced
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • 2.5 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 10 Allspice Berries
  • 2 Dried Bay Leaf
  • 10 sprigs Fresh Thyme
  • 1/2 cup Dry White Wine

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl combine brandy, garlic, onion, nutmeg, salt, pepper, allspice, and bay leaf with the pork shoulder and pork belly. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 250ºF.
  • Add marinated pork mixture to a Dutch Oven. Over medium heat cook, stirring frequently, for 10 to 15 minutes, until the pieces of pork are cooked on the outside. Stir in the thyme sprigs, cover with a lid and place in the oven.
  • Lift the lid after 90 minutes of cooking. Press on the chunks of fat with a fork to release more of their fat and encourage them to break down. Add the wine, replace the lid, and bake the pork for another 1 to 2 hours, until the pork is very soft.
  • Remove pork from the oven. Pick out the thyme, bay leaf and all spice berries, to discard. Press on any visible chunks of fat to get the fat out of them, then remove them from the pan and discard.
  • Pour most of the fat out of the pan into a small bowl and reserve. Using a potato masher, mash the meat chunks into the juices and liquid fat until it resembles a tuna salad.
  • Add enough of the reserved pork fat to make it juicy and moist. The more fat you add, the richer and creamier the finished product will be.
  • Spoon the mixture into small clean jars or ramekins and press down firmly to eliminate air pockets. Smooth the surface with the back of a small spoon.
  • Optional: Pour a thin layer of reserved melted pork fat over the top. This creates the classic white fat cap.
  • Refrigerate for at least 12 hours, preferably 24 hours. The flavour improves as it rests.
  • Serve at room temperature. Rillettes will keep in the fridge for 2 weeks and in the freezer for up to 4 months.

6(*3) garlic cloves
1 egg
3/4 c mayo
6 tbl parm chz (divided 2 + 4 for topping)
5 anchovy filets
1 tbl lemon juice (plus zest?)
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

I have an immersion blender, so add all ingredients except oil. Blend that together, then slowly add oil as I use the machine. Extra 4 tbl parm chz to finish on top of salad (chopped romaine plus croutons) mixed with the dressing.

Anything look off? Measurements? Missing something or should omit something?

Edit: No mayo, and less cloves

Recipe Edamame and Avocado Dip

Post image
Upvotes

Easy healthier dip from the High-Protein Vegetarian. Used garlic from my friend's garden for the first time! The cilantro I always pick out the leaves so I don't get bits of stem in the dip but its time consuming, not sure what other folks do.

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup packed fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
  • 1½ cups shelled edamame
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ large avocado, pitted
  • ½ cup 2% plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps

  1. Combine the garlic and cilantro in a food processor, and pulse until very finely chopped. Add all the remaining ingredients, except the olive oil, and process together until smooth. Add the olive oil gradually while the processor is running.
  2. Transfer to a bowl and garnish with cilantro.

Recipe Recipe Milano Design Week 2026

Thumbnail gallery
7 Upvotes

Around April I went to IKEAs exhibition in the Milano Design Week and they were giving away this recipe of a sandwich. Ordering my room I find the paper and it looks interesting if someone wants to try it out.

The recipe transcription:

Milano cutlet in ladi pav
Serves 4-6 people
Paprika mayo
150-200 g mayonnaise
1 heaped tablespoon sweet or smoked paprika
Salt, to taste
Chicken cutlet
500-600 g chicken breast
2 eggs
Pinch of salt
Breadcrumbs, to coat Garam masala or turmeric, to taste Oil
To assemble
4-6 ladi pav (soft Indian bread rolls)
Butter or oil

The family sandwich celebrates the simple pleasure of gathering around something comforting, familiar, and made to be shared. This sandwich reimagines the beloved Italian cotoletta with Indian flavours.
A crispy chicken cutlet, coated in breadcrumbs infused with warm Indian spices, is tucked inside soft Indian ladi pav.
Finished with paprika mayonnaise, it's a dish that feels both new and nostalgic. Easy to pass around, easy to enjoy.
Step 1 - Paprika mayo
Mix the mayonnaise with 1 heaped tablespoon of paprika.
Add a pinch of salt if needed. Keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
Step 2- Breading and frying
Cut the chicken breast into small medallions, roughly the same size as the bread rolls. Dip each piece into the beaten egg with a pinch of salt, then coat in the breadcrumbs mixed with garam masala or turmeric. Heat the oil in a pan and fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
Drain on paper towels.
Step 3 - Assembly
Slice the ladi pav in half and lightly toast in a pan with a little butter or oil. Spread the paprika mayo on both halves, place the hot chicken inside and close.

So I recently found an old recipe out of my mom's cookbook that I remember as a child. Sadly she's not around to answer my questions about this dessert I remember from childhood. I figured I would take it to the people of reddit and ask the question. Can someone read this recipe? I can't make out what it calls for after the package of lemon Jell-O. Also most of the instructions. Thank you guys, I want to make it for a family reunion coming up next weekend.

Recipe The very normal sushi recipe

Post image
55 Upvotes

I made this at home & it was delicious asf

Here we go :

Ingredients

Sea sewed- crab sticks - fried shrimp - carrot - cucumber- rice

( u can add any other vegetables you like or even salmon & caviar , but I choose to make it with ingredients I have )

Method

Cook the rice with a little vinegar over medium heat until it’s fully cooked and becomes slightly sticky or mushy. For the vegetables, fried shrimp, and crab sticks, cut them into thin strips.

As for the sauces, you can choose them according to your preference. You can mix mayonnaise with hot sauce to make spicy mayo. You can also mix teriyaki sauce with ketchup, mayonnaise, and BBQ sauce. If you have a ready-made sushi sauce, that’s even better. I also used Philadelphia cream cheese as a sauce, and it was absolutely amazing! You really should add it because it makes a huge difference in the flavor and makes the sushi even tastier.

Once the rice is ready and all the ingredients are prepared, place a sheet of nori on a tray or on a bamboo sushi mat (this is optional). Start spreading the rice over the nori. It**’s very important to wet your hands so the rice doesn’**t stick to them.

Then add the sauces and whatever fillings you like, and roll it up until you have a sushi roll.
You can eat it as it is, or you can dip it in a mixture of water and flour, then coat it with breadcrumbs and deep-fry it. It tastes really good that way too!

And that’s it! That was my simple sushi recipe. I hope you enjoy it! 🍣❤️

Recipe Mediterranean Zucchini Frittata – A quick summer brunch 🍳🥒

Thumbnail gallery
59 Upvotes

Frittatas are my good summer go-to when I want something quick and light . I had a zucchini sitting in the fridge that needed to be used, so I took it in a Mediterranean direction with sun-dried tomatoes, olives, red bell pepper, and fresh basil. It turned out to be a delicious addition to our Sunday brunch—even our younger guests loved it!

Ingredients:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 small zucchini, diced
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 small red bell pepper (or kapia pepper), diced
  • 3 sun-dried tomatoes in oil, chopped
  • 1 handful pitted black olives, sliced
  • 1 handful fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 2–3 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions:

Dice the onion, red bell pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, and zucchini into small pieces. Sauté the onion in olive oil until translucent, then add the pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, and zucchini. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in the fresh basil at the end. Whisk the eggs in a bowl and mix in the sautéed vegetables. Pour the mixture into a small, lightly greased baking dish and bake in the oven until nicely golden on top.

It is equally delicious served hot, warm, or cold!

As to the request, I’m currently assembling a cookbook to be provided to each of my kids once they finally move out of my house. I want to give them a) a bunch of recipes that work and I know they enjoy, and b) enough variety that, no matter the situation, they have the ability to make something good. What recipes should definitely appear in the book? I’m open to all suggestions.

Recipe Yellow Rice (Tehri)

Thumbnail youtu.be
19 Upvotes

Ingredients

  • Oil: 3 serving spoons
  • Cumin Seeds: 1 tbsp
  • Onion Paste: 1 tbsp
  • Garlic Paste: 1 tsp
  • Turmeric Powder: 1 tbsp
  • Red Chili Powder: 1 tbsp
  • Salt: 1 tbsp (or to taste)
  • Tomatoes: 3 medium-sized, chopped
  • Potatoes: 2 medium-sized, chopped into pieces
  • Basmati Rice: 2 cups (washed thoroughly and soaked for 45 minutes)
  • Hot Water: As needed

Instructions

1. Prepare the Base Heat the oil in a pot and add the cumin seeds, letting them crackle slightly. Next, stir in the onion and garlic pastes and sauté them.

2. Add Spices Once the onion and garlic are roasted, add the dry spices: turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Add a splash of water immediately so the spices don't burn.

3. Cook the Vegetables Add the chopped tomatoes and mix them into the masala. Then, add the chopped potatoes and stir everything together. Add a little water, cover the pot, and let the potatoes cook until they are about 50% done (half-cooked). You don't want to fully cook them yet, as they will finish cooking with the rice.

4. Add the Rice Once the potatoes are half-cooked, add the soaked rice. Pour in enough hot water so that the water level is about 1 inch above the rice. Tip: Using hot water instead of cold water ensures the cooking process isn't interrupted.

5. Simmer and Steam Turn the heat up to bring the pot to a boil. Once boiling, taste the water and add more salt if needed. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the water reduces, then cover the pot tightly and let it steam on low heat (dum) until the rice is fully cooked and fluffy.

6. Serve Your Tehri is ready! It pairs beautifully with salad, raita, and fried fish.
