I cooked something
Jan. 13th, 2014 10:58 pmI'm posting exactly what I did here mostly so I don't forget.
Diced half a dozen carrots and one giant, knife-eating sweet potato. Put them in a dish, lid on, with a knob of butter to bake for about 20 minutes.
Took them out of the oven, gave them a rough mashing, added more butter, put the lid back on, put them back in for another 15 minutes.
Took them out, added a tablespoon of cream cheese and uh... a lot of sour cream, plus green onions and more butter. Gave a thorough mashing, put the lid back on and put back in the oven for ten minutes, mostly just so I had time to prepare the salmon.
Took them out, put two skinned semi-frozen salmon fillets in the middle and covered them over completely with the mix so as to stop them getting dry. Sprinkled cheese on top. Did not add more butter but was tempted. Put the lid back on and put the whole lot back in the over for ~15 minutes or so (I forgot to set the timer).
Salmon is perfectly cooked and moist and tasty. Mashed mix is also moist and tasty and perfectly cooked, and very very filling.
