yummy culinary experimentation for ckd

hey all
some of you that have read my post know i am a chef and been on atkins for some time and now onto ckd

well i have been experimenting
trying to up the good fat content of my dishes
i grew up cooking with minimal fat so this was not easy

here are a few things i have come up with and want to share:

* easiest: when scrambling eggs whip in 2 tbsp favourite oil (olive, walnut, flax, grapeseed, peanut) before adding the eggs to the butter waiting in the pan ...lol:p

*i made a thai seafood soup using shrimp and scallops but can add chicken or beef ingredients including lo sodium broth, ginger, fresh chilis, lime juice, red curry paste, veggies and finished with peanut butter.... a tablespoon per 1/4 cup of liquid

*stirfrieds.....traditionally i would thicken with a cornstarch solution but a tablespoon of peanut butter again to a 1/4 of liquid

*chili......i did a semi traditional chili mole...nice diced chuck steak (beef), onions, jalapenos and ancho chilis (or good chili powder), bell peppers, cumin, mushrooms (yes! there is a region of mexico that uses lots of mushrooms.. i like wild mushrooms for texture)
lime juice or red wine vinegar, tomato sauce, a touch of cocoa and peanut butter finish with chopped cilantro and parmesan

yes i made use of lots of peanut butter but i have found almond butter, macadamia butter, and tahini works too except where i actually wanted the peanut flavour (thai and mexican)

hope you guys try these ideas and i will occasionally add other notes and muses

karma me if ya think it kewl
:fro: :fro:
 
I will have to try that thai soup--- as for the eggs, I sometimes add oil to them and sometimes sour cream into the whip.

Seems like you're eating like a king!
