Sauté onions until slightly brown (about 5-7 minutes). Add tomato purée, beef stock, chili powder, cumin, coriander leaves, and salt & freshly cracked pepper to taste. Simmer for 10 minutes. Add dark chocolate and stir until it melts. Turn the heat to low and simmer slowly for another 5 minutes
Onto the filet mignon: Cut the filet into 1-inch rounds. Massage the beef with some fleur de sel and freshly cracked pepper on both sides. In a pan, heat 1 teaspoon of good olive oil & 1 teaspoon of butter on medium. Add steaks and cook for 5 minutes per side
Plate the steaks & drizzle with our chocolate-chili sauce. Serve with love... or french fries, whatever.
This episode is dedicated to the one you love... to torture. Nadia G rants about V-Day & cooks up a cocoa-themed feast. The spice agent talks about getting dumped on V-Day & Hans smothers himself in chocolate... Oh yeah.
While you're at it check out our Anti-Valentine's Day Campaign.
I was never one for wine tasting parties. There’s something about all the work I have to do - smell, taste, spit, - that turns me off faster than a cheap date. Besides. I like to relax when I have a drink – not spit in a bucket. So when my I was invited to a beer tasting party recently, you could imagine my reluctance to attend.
Congratulations to this week’s Weekend Dish Winner: Beverly J.

With the Oscar nominations having just been announced, and the big night right around the corner, we thought we’d make our predictions now so that we can say, “We told you so!” later. Additional gloating to come.
There are a lot of great movies that could be taking home some hardware this year, but we think we’ve already figured out the winners for nine major categories. If you disagree with our picks…you’d be wrong. But, in the spirit of friendly competition post your picks too and we’ll see how it all matches up.
