Eat With Me

Today I present to you a recipe I invented.

It's meant to go along with veal or steak.

Here we go. I call this Radical Sweet Radicchio and Onions And Mandarins and Stuff:

Take some freshly cut pubic hair. Kidding.

All you need for this is fresh ground pepper and sea salt. Season as you go along.

Grab an onion (yellow or red your choice) or two and sliced them up however you like but for this one I prefer keeping them in round slices - not too thin, not too thick. Saute them with a little olive oil and a garlic clove or two (if you cut two onions use two garlics; one to one ratio) until soft.

Next, add some shallots. Keep the green part for later. Mix in for another couple of minutes or so.

Then, add some canned orange mandarins. Is that redundant? Mix in for another minute or so.

Grab some radicchio, wash the leaves you need and chop them up. Throw it in and add a little balsamic vinegar. The sweetness of the balsamic and mandarins help to offset the bitterness of the radicchio.

Heat until it thickens and becomes like a sauce.

Set aside. Garnish with fresh parsely and the remainder of the green shallots. Pour over your meat you barbaric carnivore.

Enjoy until some dick bureaucrat decrees something in there is decidedly bad for you.

As for the steak or veal, I just use some sage, thyme and rosemary. I add a little bit of balsamic and steak spice (lemon-based flavor for veal, chipotle for meat I find is pretty good) if necessary.
