What is your signature dish?

Foxhound38

I'm guessing most of us know our way (even to a minimal extent) around a frying pan and wouldn't starve to death if not for the OH/Mammy. So what's your signature dish? Surely there must be at least one recipe you can do particularly well?

I make a mean home-made burger - plenty of shallots and sweet peppers in the mix!

A good full fry, serious, it's always been popular with my hungover family and friends, probably because I'm particular about what I use for it and how I cook each item. For example only TIFKA Superquinn sausages !

By the same vein I'm a good BBQ chef too again because of my choice of and patience with the cooking of the food used

(For those who haven't figured it out, TIFKA = the item formerly known as)

Oven cook the chips.
Fry the mince. When the mince is brown mix gravy in with it until fully cooked.
Put the chips on a plate and cover with cheese.
Add the mince and cover with more cheese.
Put the plate in the oven until the cheese is melted.
Take it out and cover in more gravy.
Enjoy

I think it's for Lyons, the woman is at a cooking class and is fundamentally incompetent. Makes tea, calls it her signature dish.

I'd be a fan of the pot myself. And as for strength, when I makes tea I makes tea and when I makes water I makes water. And I never makes them in the one pot.

A steak sandwich. Not any old steak sandwich though. The shooter's sandwich as shown here: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/gallery/2010/apr/07/how-to-make-shooters-sandwich

Serve it with skinny chips, pickles and a couple of litres of red wine.

Salmon tagliatelle
Stir fry, chicken or beef
Spinach soup
Leek and potato soup

All easy, but nice

I enjoy making this because it's quick and there aren't too many things to chop up and comes out amazing.

Chicken with ginger and spring onions

Chop up 2 chicken breasts and put in a bowl and mix in a couple of dashes sesame oil, dark soy sauce, tsp garlic powder, glug of oyster sauce, tbsp potato flour and veg oil.
Leave to one side for a bit and finely chop or grate 4-5 cloves garlic (or less).
Grate a 2-3 inch piece of ginger or grate half and finely slice the rest.
Chop up a bunch of spring onions.
Heat up some oil in a wok and add the bowl of chicken pieces and brown - a couple of mins on each side. Take out and put aside.
Add a glug of oyster sauce to wok and fry the garlic, ginger and spring onions for a couple minutes.
Add a large mug of chicken stock and add the chicken pieces back in and bring up to a boil and simmer until chicken is cooked through.
Mix a drop of cold water in a cup with 1-2 tsp potato flour and add to wok.
Stir until nicely thickened and serve with egg noodles or rice.
