Babe come over, we’re frying garlic
Onions, chestnuts, chorizo and black garlic
Oblig. link to that article on how every cookbook lies about how long it takes to brown onions

I want to call this dish “one garlic, three ways” but the ways all get combined at the end, so, alas.

Apropos of nothing, Jen’s parents (adult ESL speakers) were totally convinced for decades that “garlic” was “ga-leek” (i.e. ga- was a prefix, since they’re obviously leek-related). I find this delightful.

Not-rice ingredients combined, Cajun spices added
@steve wait a sec what's going on with chorizo and cajun spices? andouille substitute??
@regehr this is very much a “clean out the fridge because we’re going to Japan in a week” meal
@steve the cajuns and spaniards grudgingly accept this as valid
@regehr doubtful, but they aren’t gonna stop me
@steve I mean, smoked pork sausages are probably fundamentally compatible. anyway I won't tell if you don't tell the Indians and Mexicans that I love to use chana masala as dip for tortilla chips
