I didn't even realize it until this morning, but I had a cooking triumph last night: I made an entire dinner without any recipe at all. Granted it was quite simple, but I still find it very exciting when I'm able to just cook without references.
I made roasted potatoes with herbs de provence finishing up last week's yukon gold potatoes, and using a few of this week's purple potatoes. This can hardly be called a recipe, but my method is to cut them into eights or so, depending on size, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and whatever spices I'm in the mood for. Last night was herbs de provence, but I often use cajun seasoning. I roast them at 425 for about 45-60 min. They always take longer than I anticipate...
I wanted something to go with the potatoes, but didn't feel like going to the store for chicken or similar and I remembered two hot italian chicken sausages in the freezer, so I ended up sauteing those along with the red spring onions. Once the sausages were cooked enough to hold up, I sliced them into disks. This was a tasty meal indeed. S. let out a disappointed sigh when he went to get seconds and found there weren't any to be had.
