'Goodfellas' Prison Meal: A Recipe - 10/28/12 10:58 AM
Im sorry if some1 already posted this...
"In prison, dinner was always a big thing," said Ray Liotta in Martin Scorsese's "Goodfellas."
Starring Liotta, Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci, the 1990 classic married two seemingly disparate subjects: food and the mob. From orchestrating a family dinner from behind bars to stirring a sauce during a police raid, these wise guys sure could mange.
So, because "Goodfellas" may be the best dinner and a movie ever created, Shortlist hired Dave Watts, head chef at The Cotswold House Hotel, to recreate the meticulous prison feast.
Even the non-gourmand will enjoy this meal; the instructions are riddled with "Goodfellas" quotes.
"Just like the guys in Goodfellas, I like to serve this with a char grilled 34 day aged hanger steak cooked medium rare, a bottle of Chianti and good crunchy country bread ( to soak up all those wonderful juices and flavours)."
You can see all of the ingredients below. For the whole shebang (a.k.a. recipe), click over to Shortlist. Salut!
Ingredients
6 onions peeled and finely diced
75g Cotswold gold rapeseed oil or olive oil
A teaspoon of salt
300g minced beef
300g minced pork shoulder
300g diced English rose veal flank
30g Cotswold gold rapeseed oil or olive oil
250g beef or brown chicken stock
10 cloves garlic peeled
