Parsi-style Green Beans

Found this in a Saveur issue eight years ago when my wife and I first got married. Since then it has been a staple in our house, and our little toddler likes it too. While fenugreek and spinach tend to be popular in this dish, I like using mustard or collard greens.

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 (1⁄4") piece peeled fresh ginger, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
Salt
2 1⁄2 lb. greens, such as spinach or amaranth, trimmed and washed
1 tbsp. canola oil
1-2 green thai chiles, slit to the stem
1 small red onion, chopped
1⁄4 tsp. turmeric
1⁄2 tsp. cayenne
1 tomato, cored and coarsely chopped

Put ginger and garlic together on a cutting board, sprinkle with a bit of salt, and roughly chop them together. Using the flat side of your knife blade, smash the chopped ginger and garlic to form a paste; set aside. Put spinach into a large pot, cover, and with no more than the water adhering to the leaves, steam over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until the greens collapse, 5–7 minutes; drain and set aside.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the greens chiles and let them sizzle for a moment before adding the onion. When the onion softens, add the ginger–garlic paste, stirring to keep the contents from sticking. Add the turmeric, cayenne, and about 1⁄2 tsp. salt and stir for a few moments before you add the chopped tomato. Let the tomato cook down a little, 3–4 minutes. Add greens, combine well, and cook over low heat, covered, until tender and well flavored with the other ingredients, about 30 minutes. The final consistency should be "fairly dry, not swimming".

Thank you so much! =D Very much appreciated.

Windows 10: For when you just don't think the NSA has enough tools to spy on you and you want to give them more.

Not using Windows 10 to 'make things harder on the NSA' is like emptying your pockets of change so you don't 'make things harder on your car'.

There are plenty of things you can do to protect yourself. Linux is a good s tart.

I could just give up on computers and the internet, too, but that's not really a good solution either.

@Thenomain I told you those seven times I shot you in the crotch was an accident. It was my controller. I can stop at any time.

Also! I just realized I never posted what happened with all the clicking - I didn't reach the number in time, but they ended up giving the points to everyone who tried. So thanks everyone who started it up every day and wandered off while it played. 😄

I would like a copy of both, really.

She is married, sir!

Good day!

Beheadings do tend to discourage wide use of the scientific method, yes.

Also as far as NodeBB tutorial goes I did find this:

Not sure if its any good but its something.

There is, just just hasn't been active in a while.

So many places are having sales all the time I sort of just stopped posting. My bad.

SoS was written in Aramaic, originally, but the bulk of Hebrew scriptures were translated into Greek around the 3rd century B.C with the advent of the LXX. So much was the prevalence of Greek that Hebrew became a liturgical language used in the Temple, and Greek and Aramaic became predominant for business and everyday life (when Jesus is handed the Isaiah scroll in the synagogue in Luke 4:17, he probably is reading from a Greek or Aramaic copy). I am more familiar with Greek. My Hebrew and Aramaic needs work.

Cockatrice, that's the one I was groping around for the name of. I have had that recommended to me on other gaming forums, and it seems to be the equivalent to YGOPro or DevPro, which are the same thing but for YGO (with the added benefit of YGOpro actually handling your mechanics for you).

Negative. The good Peruvian players play on the South America server. I've tested it.

Completely irrelevant to The FUTURE but still, I happened to be reading about it recently. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Hunger_March

But my main reason is that machines tend to isolate a single muscle, which is inferior - and somewhat dangerous - compared to compound exercises which work out and strengthen more than one muscle group at a time.

It depends on what machines you're using. Cable-based machines are safe, and probably the best way to hit the groups I need and want to hit. It's kind of hard to do lat pulldowns at home without a machine.

At home, I used free-weights and did bodyweight training, as previously specified. Many of my TBT exercises were compound.

Appreciate it, I will give it a look!

@HelloRaptor I think one of the reasons I liked the Secrets of Power series as much as I did is that I'm a sucker for 'training' novels in general. The theme of some random corporate stooge gradually immersing themselves into a different world, learning the basics of what it is to be a shaman and then a very powerful one appealed to me.

Shadowrun 2nd Ed was my system of choice. Man, the hours I spent with an MS-DOS-based calculator trying to squeeze every bit of cybernetic gear I could into a character without making his body fall apart. It was the most fun I ever had simply picking stats for a PC.

@Bug-In-A-Jar This shit is hilarious lol
