Melonie Tries Recipes
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 3 ก.ค. 2011
I’m Melonie, just an average cook. I'm on a mission to try the internet’s most popular recipes. From TH-cam favorites to TikTok trends and my own beloved dishes, I try it all. My videos are fast-paced with voiceovers, ending with a verdict: delicious success or an awkward fail.
I post videos every Monday and Friday at 7pm EST. 😉

Chicken Fried Steak
Shout out to @PaulsGearReview for suggesting this recipe.
This is my first time making chicken fried steak. It is also the first time I have had to use a tenderizing mallet. As you can see, my mom showed me an easier way to tenderize a piece of meat.
In hind sight, I think if I tenderized the steak for a few more minutes on each one, they may have become more tender. Overall, this was a delicious meal.

Beef Pot Roast with Carrots
มุมมอง 872 หลายเดือนก่อน
After searing the roast I checked on it every 15 minutes for about 45 minutes then every 30 minutes for an hour. I was making sure of 2 things, 1- it wasn't cooking too fast and 2- it wasn't cooking too slow. After about 2 hours, I added the carrots. In total my roast cooked for about 4 to 4 and a half hours. I hope you enjoyed the raw footage at the end of the video. I'm so glad my mom enjoyed...

Some stores will offer to slice it thinner if you can’t find a thinner steak. It depends on where you shop. Next time I would just eyeball the amount of flour and egg mixture because you can always add more ingredients. It did look really good though I may have to try it.
Really? I will definitely have to ask next time. Yeah, I was trying hard to follow the recipe. It was just not working out for me. Thank you for watching. 👍😊❤️
It turned out great 😊
Yes it did. Thank you mom. 👍😊❤️
Using the plate to tenderize the meat...brought back memories 😊
Yes. 👍😊❤️
Thanks for the shout out Mel! And to be honest even though the steak was thick it looked really good im going to show my wife this so i can have one too!
Thank you Paul. I am planning on trying this recipe again in a couple weeks. My mom really enjoyed it. Thanks for the excellent recipe suggestion. 👍😊❤️

I admire that you're honest about your efforts not being what you hoped, and remember to stay positive, what you learned here will help you next time. Keep cooking :-)
Thank you very much. I appreciate that. 👍😊❤
Try adding some chopped spinach in these sometime, I think you'd like it.
Oh yeah. That sounds excellent. Thank you. 👍😊❤
You got some great stuff. Love them pistachios. I'd be excited to get that. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel the same way. 👍😊❤️
Great hack. I wanna try this one. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You should!
Amazing. Thank you for this recipe. It is new for me. Im definitely going to try this one.😊😊😊😊😊😊
Oh goodness, that looks delicious 😋
Wow. Thats cool. I need to try this.
This does look good though. I'd try it.
Are you sure that fluid is grease? Maybe it was just fluid from the tomatoes or water that you added.
Looks amazing 😊
Thank you. Let me know if you try it. 👍😊❤️
Good idea doubling the shell. I'm gonna have to try it. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You should definitely try it. Thank you for watching. 👍😊❤
Turned out great 😊
Yes it did. Thank you. 👍😊❤
looks yummy!
It was excellent. Thank you. 👍😊❤
Id take the beef stew put it over rice noodles potatoes or bread like toast. Id also use it as a base cause the flavors basics are there for beef vegetable soup Adding more fresh and or frozen vegetables like peas carrots celery tomato juice or v8 to stretch it into a bigger pot i could porttion out into several freezer meals then when its nasty chilly and wet or im tired pull 1 from the freezer and pop on the stove or microwave Im not a big fan of microwaving food myself except to heat canned soup or reheating leftovers or instant oatmeal when im in a hurry
Thank you. Great idea. 👍😊❤
Justto emphasize, if you have too much grease at the end, then there was a point where you should have drained the grease, almost always after you brown any meat you will have to drain the grease from that meat, via a strainer or colander and then add it back to the pan to continue your recipe....i feel like this should be evident....in any event, its a learning experience and i hope you get better. Good luck... especially if you're gonna make videos
I didn't realize the chorizo had so much grease in it. I've never cooked with it before. But hey thanks for making me feel like an idiot. 👍😊❤️ Also, I don't make videos claiming I'm a 5 star chef. I'm just a regular person trying recipes. Thank you for watching my video.
😮😮😮
Wasn't trying to make you feel like an idiot...just constructive criticism, we all learn these things as we go, sorry if I came across harsh but after browning the meat surely you saw the grease...maybe don't do recipes for the first time on videos that you post....try them first work out the bugs then post. Again I'm sorry for any harshness...I encourage you to keep on keeping on. I love cooking content.
I did drain the grease after I browned my ground beef. I did state that in the video but didn't show it. My issue was with the chorizo. Is it extremely greasy when it's cooked? I don't know bc I've never used it before. My sister gave it to me. I chose this recipe bc my mom wanted something different. My channel is about me trying recipes I've never tried before and showcasing my and my mom's favorite recipes. I'm super glad you stumbled upon my channel and I hope you subscribe if you haven't yet. 👍😊❤️
