CHANNEL 5.
>> GOOD EVENING, FROM MY HOME KITCHEN.
DURING SOCIAL DISTANCING, MANY OF US ARE COOKING MORE.
NEED NEW RECIPES TO TRY?
TONIGHT, WE HAVE EASY AND YUMMY IDEAS FROM SOME OF BOSTON’S CHOPPED CHEFS.
FIRST, A SIMPLE SPICY DISH.
♪ >> I’M TIFFANY, OWNER OF DESCARTES HOSPITALITY, AND TIGER MAMA.
I’M IN MY KITCHEN BECAUSE I LIVE CLOSE TO MY RESTAURANTS.
IN SOLIDARITY, I’M IN MY PAJAMAS.
LET’S COOK TOGETHER.
WE HAVE INGREDIENTS AT HOME THAT WE ARE USING CONSTANTLY AND EVERYONE HAS THE SAME STAPLES.
EVERYONE HAS EGGS, YOU ARE BUYING A TON OF EGGS.
SCRABBLE EGGS AGAIN?
I’M DOING A RECIPE THAT IS AN INDIAN SCRABBLE EGG WHICH I LOVE, IT IS A LITTLE SPICE, TWIST_BUTT EGGS.
IF YOU WANT SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT OR SPICY BREAKFAST, THIS IS FOR YOU.
USUALLY WE WOULD HAVE IT WITH -- I’M GOING TO USE SOURDOUGH BREAD AND GET A THICK CUT ON IT AND A GORGEOUS, BEAUTIFUL CRUST WITH A LITTLE BIT OF BUTTER IN THE PAN.
WE START WITH CRACKING OUR EGGS.
GET GOOD QUALITY EGGS.
I’M GOING TO USE ALL SIX EGGS BECAUSE I WANT A LARGE BATCH OF THIS.
I WILL MAKE THIS UP.
I WANT THE SOFT SCRAMBLE.
MIX REALLY NICELY.
WE WILL SET THESE ASIDE FOR NOW OVER HERE.
IN THE MEANTIME, I WILL CHOP MY CHILIS.
YOU CAN USE JALAPENOS.
THESE ARE ITALIAN PEPPERS, WHICH I LOVE.
THEY HAVE A NICE SPICE TO THEM.
I’M OBSESSED WITH ALL THINGS SPICY AND INTERESTING AND I’M OBSESSED WITH A LOT OF INDIAN FOOD.
I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO TEACH MYSELF RECIPES FROM AREAS OF THE WORLD AND I’M INTERESTED IN.
THIS IS ONE THAT I LOVE FOR A BREAKFAST RECIPE.
IT IS VERY EASY TO WHIP SOMETHING UP THAT IS A LITTLE BEYOND THE NORMAL SCRABBLE EGGS.
I’M A SPICE JOCKEY.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING MORE MILD, -- I’M GOING TO GIVE THIS A NICE CHOP.
YOU CAN USE AS LITTLE OR AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE.
IF YOU ARE NOT PSYCHED ON SPICE, THIS IS NOT THE RECIPE FOR YOU.
DON’T MAKE IT.
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE.
WE WILL GET OUR CHILIS READY TO GO.
THAT IS PROBABLY GOOD ENOUGH.
IT NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF CILANTRO.
DON’T GET CRAZY.
IT IS ALL GOING TO COOK DOWN.
IF YOU ARE NOT A BIG CILANTRO FAN, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU.
YOU COULD PROBABLY PUT MINT IN, IT WOULD BE SIMILAR TO WHAT WE ARE DOING.
I WOULD PROBABLY LOOK FOR SOMETHING ELSE.
FOR BREAD, I WANT THICK CUTS.
I LIKE TO GET GORGEOUS CRUST WITH LOTS OF BUTTER.
DON’T BE AFRAID OF BUTTER FOR THIS.
I’M GOOD TO PUT IT ON TOP OF THAT AND LET THE BUT I DO ITS JOB AND START TO MELT LOW AND SLOW.
LOTS OF BUTTER.
DO NOT SKIMP ON BUTTER.
ADDING ONIONS TO THIS, HE DID ABOUT HER.
-- INTO THE BUTTER.
IT HELPS BREAK IT DOWN AND COOK IT A LITTLE FASTER.
WE WILL LET ONIONS COOK UNTIL THEY ARE NICE AND DARK.
WE TALKED ABOUT SWEATING ONIONS WHICH IS LOOKING UNTIL THEY ARE TRANSLUCENT.
FOR THIS, YOU WANT A GOOD MONTH OF COLOR.
YOU WANTED CARMEL AS A.
-- CARAMELIZATION.
THERE IS NOT A LOT THAT IS BETTER THAN MELTING, CARAMELIZED ONIONS.
THE SMELL IS UNREAL.
SO BEAUTIFUL.
YOU WANT TO KEEP GOING A LITTLE PAST THIS POINT SO WE ARE GETTING NICE AND BROWN, AND LITTLE BIT FURTHER.
YOU WILL SMELL IT.
IT IS NOT JUST WATCHING HER COOK -- WATCHING HER FOOD COOK -- WATCHING YOUR FOOD COOK.
AT A MID SCARLET, ABOUT A TABLESPOON.
THEN YOU HAVE THE GARLIC OPENING -- THEN YOU HAVE THE ONION GARLIC.
WE PLAID TOMATOES AND CHOPPED CHILIS.
WE PLAID DRIED CHILI.
-- WE WILL ADD DRIED CHILI.
I LIKE SPICE, THAT IS A GOOD AMOUNT OF CHILI POWDER.
WE BUILD COOK THIS DOWN FOR A LITTLE WHILE.
IF IT STARTS TO DRY OUT, ADD WATER AROUND THE EDGES AND LET IT CONTINUE TO COOK.
WE ARE GETTING THICKER.
THAT IS CREATING THIS DELICIOUS-LOOKING JAM.
THAT IS THE CONSISTENCY WE ARE LOOKING FOR.
IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE GRAPE TOMATOES.
YOU CAN USE CANNED TOMATOES.
THIS IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR.
NICE AND STICKY, DELICIOUS.
WISH YOU COULD SMELL THIS.
YOU COULD SMELL ALL THE GARLIC, THE GINGER, SO GOOD.
WE ARE GOING TO TURN IT WAY DOWN, LOW HEAT.
ADD OUR EGGS.
KEEP YOUR HEAT SUPER LOW RIGHT NOW.
I’M GOING TO ADD MORE BUTTER.
THIS IS THE KEY TO BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS.
I DON’T LIKE TO SALT EGGS UNTIL THE END SO THEY MAINTAIN A BEAUTIFUL SOFTNESS AND THEY DON’T GET RUBBERY.
YOU WANT BEAUTIFUL, CRUS BREAD.
THIS IS THE POINT WE WILL SEIZE IN OUR EGGS, NOT UNTIL THE END.
I WILL PUT SOME SALT IN HERE.
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SOFT SCRAMBLE.
THIS IS THE CONSISTENCY THAT WE WANT.
LAST, CILANTRO GOES IN.
JUST GOING TO GIVE A GENEROUS SERVING ON THE SIDE OF THE BREAD.
YOU CAN PUT IT ON TOP OF THE BREAD, SCOOP THE BREAD WITH IT, UP TO YOU.
FINISH WITH A LITTLE MORE CILANTRO.
GORGEOUS GARNISH.
THERE WE GO.
BEAUTIFUL, INDIAN-STYLE SCRAMBLED EGGS FROM MY KIT
