Focaccia (with black olives)
Making my soup.
Oil Spill?
To be comtinued....
JHP, you shminx.... that's mangos... way better than bananas.
Pauly, it's very good to have you back in the fray!I just wiped a bunch of awesomesauce off my face.
This was a fun throwdown for me because pretty much everything was home-grown or self-caught (or caught by a friend....).
I made Florida Lobster-avocado bisque using homegrown avocados and lobster I caught myself (there was a sense of pride in that!)
The sandwich was a fresh mahi-Cuban sandwich. I interpreted the traditional Cuban sandwich with blackened/grilled Mahi instead of roast pork.
Pressed in the sandwich robot with a mustard/creme tartar. Damn it was good.
I dipped the sandwich in the soup because....well because it was tasty that way!!
BTW. It's freaking hot as hell here, I bet the soup was really nice for you poor bastards living in the cold....

Frydad's Mahi Cubano with Lobster Avocado Bisque
This was a fun one. Most of the stuff I used was home grown or locally sourced by friends.
Soup:
Sautee onion and fresh jalapeno in 1 T butter
Add 3 C chicken stock
Add a whole Florida avocado (get a big one)
Juice of 1 Lime
Half a shot of dark rum
Season to taste
Motor-boat until it is soupy and smooth
Top with chopped grilled lobster
Enjoy.
Sandwich:
Fresh Cuban bread
Cuban Tartar (deli mustard, crema, dill relish, crushed cayenne pepper)
Jamon Serrano (high quality deli ham)
Deli Provolone from a Cuban market
Blackened/Grilled Mahi
Assemble sandwich and press in a sandwich robot until it's melty. Serve with soup.
Feel free to dip the sandwich into the soup...it's awesome!!
