Indeed. Looks delicious.
Took awhile to post but here is our traditional Norwegian christmas eve dinner.
With Juleribba(pork belly ribs skin still on) Meidisterpølse(similar to bratwurst) and ertestuing (pea stew or paste) and of course the inevitable boiled potatoes.
It was delicious. Dessert was international though.
And then the next day Japanese as a treat.
We did share.
Now that is some feasting! How much fun was eating all that!?!

Where's the Lutefisk?
Trust a Finn.... Lol!
Actually my brother sent us some lutefisk as a joke. (its fish preserved in lye. )
But my husband wouldnt cook it. Said it tastes awful unless youre raised with it. He was not. And that the whole house would stink for days.

Nice did you try to cook them they way I did that one time? Blanch and then over roast? Just curious.
Didn't blanch. Just straight into the oven on 400 for a half hour or so.
Pieces were not too large. It's another friends recipe. Easy. _________________

Another first try for me. Niku Jaga. A traditional Japanese dish of beef simmered with potatoes and veggies. It turned out decent but I wasn't able to find the traditional thin cut beef normally used in this dish so I substituted diced beef which is normally reserved for stews. The potoates and veggies were well flavored but the beef could have been better had I used a more expensive grade of meat. Lesson: Don't skimp like a gimp.

Beef stew by any other name.....
Yeah pretty much except it doesn't have the salt that one would find common in a Western recipe.
Next time I go to Mitsuwa I'll be able to get thinly sliced beef that is appropriate for this dish. Moreover, I'm sure the quality of the meat will be better too!
