How to Make the Food You See in ‘Game of Thrones’

Winter may have arrived in Westeros, but that’s not going to stop our favorite Game of Thrones characters from indulging in their favorite sweets, meats, and goblets upon goblets of various boozes. (Or at least that’s what we assume. Not even a White Walker seems like it’d stand in the way of a Lannister, Stark, or Targaryen and his or her meal.)

To celebrate the premiere of season seven, we’ve created a video (above) that highlights some of the interesting cuisine that we’ve encountered in seasons’ past. From decadent desserts and entrees to no frills campfire delicacies (Ed Sheeran rabbit, anyone?), the food has certainly been unique. We’ve rounded up some of the most notable dishes below, along with recipes that you can try for yourself.

Lemon Cakes

Chowhound

We envision lemon cakes to look more like lemon-filled Zebra Cakes, but a lemon cupcake with lemon-cream cheese frosting is the modern-day equivalent. And frankly, we’re pretty happy with that. Get the recipe.

Kidney Pie

Gusto TV

You may be reluctant to try kidney pie, but what if we suggested a dish with tender steak and dark beer (also GOT appropriate)? Does that pie sound so terrible now? If not, get the recipe. If so, opt for a cherry or apple pie. Those are probably more up your alley.

Pork Sausage

Chowhound

Sure, its association with the show may send shudders down any man’s spine, but there’s no denying the deliciousness of pork sausage. If you’ve been searching for a homemade variety that you can cut, blend, and grind by hand (we know, we know), try this recipe for traditional bratwurst.

Oysters, Clams, and Cockles

Chowhound

Braavos has its fair share of seafood (just ask Arya) and Westeros has its fair share of wine. Combine the best of both worlds with this oyster dish featuring a prosecco mignonette. You won’t get drunk, but your breath will certainly rival that of a dragon. Get the recipe.

7 Fried Rice Recipes That Will Blow Chinese Delivery Away

Among other reasons—laziness, convenience, a seemingly uncontrollable desire to take every opportunity to blow through my meager disposable income—I turn to delivery when I have a craving for a dish that I don’t have the skill and/or time to make at home. Like soup dumplings. Or sushi. And pretty much all Indian food.

But there are a couple classic takeout dishes I feel confident enough to claim from the pros and tackle on my own. Take fried rice, for example.

If you’re too tired to go to the grocery store and just want use up whatever random odds and ends of ingredients that have been accumulating in your fridge, like a culinary MacGyver, fried rice is the perfect solution. It’s actually even recommended that you use leftover, one- or two-day-old refrigerated rice as a base over a hot, freshly made batch. This is because when the grains are chilled, they separate more easily and therefore are less likely to clump together and lose the integrity of their texture (aka become a mushy blob).

While it’s generally quick and easy to assemble, with little room for egregious, no-turning-back-from-this errors, there are a couple pro tips to keep in mind. If you are making the rice yourself ahead of time (instead of, say, using the leftover boxes of white rice from when you ordered Chinese takeout a couple days ago, *no judgment*), make sure to cook with medium to long-grained rice instead of short, glutinous rice which is tends to be much stickier. In case you couldn’t tell, sticking is your biggest opponent when it comes to this dish. Aside from choice of rice, you can also reduce the likelihood of ingredients sticking together by working in a large pan (or wok or skillet or dutch oven, the key here is for it to be large) and not overcrowding the surface with too much stuff (read: don’t work in giant batches). Oh, and make sure to pre-heat your pan and oil on high.

Below we’ve compiled some favorite fried rice recipes to assist and inspire you in your takeout hackery.

Slow-Cooker Fried Rice

Chowhound

We resort to takeout because it’s easy. And convenient. Because it requires little to no effort and you’re too tired to cook tonight. But what if making your favorite takeout dish at home was easy, and convenient, and the only effort it took was throwing a bunch of ingredients in your slow cooker and basically forget about it for an hour and a half? That’s this recipe for crock pot fried rice.  Get our Slow Cooker Fried Rice recipe.

Kimchi and Shrimp Fried Rice

Chowhound

The bold-flavored Korean condiment adds a welcome dose of spice, crunch, and savory funk to this classic dish. Get our Kimchi and Shrimp Fried Rice recipe.

Pulled Pork Fried Rice

I Am A Food Blog

You won’t find any of those dinky little pieces of pork synonymous with Chinese takeout fried rice in this recipe (you know, the ones with the curious hot pink-tinted fringe?). Instead, here, leftover pulled pork is cleverly repurposed to create a true meat lover’s fried rice. Get the recipe.

Extra Vegetable Fried Rice

Cookie and Kate

Loaded with good-for-you ingredients (Snow peas! Asparagus! Carrots! Broccoli! Cabbage! Spinach! Bell Pepper!), this veggie-packed fried rice won’t have you feeling guilty about going back for seconds. Get the recipe.

Breakfast Fried Rice

Hapa Nom Nom

Fried rice gets the breakfast for dinner treatment in this recipe, which mixes in bacon and subs out the more traditional scrambled eggs for a food-porny, runny-yolked fried egg on top. Get the recipe.

Crab Fried Rice

The Woks of Life

A traditional Thai variation on fried rice, this recipe keeps things simple and focused by making the pieces of sweet-sea savory lump crab the only star ingredient. Seasonings like garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and fish sauce are applied with a delicate touch, but if you’re a fan of spice, feel free to get a little liberal with the chili oil. Get the recipe.

Ginger Fried Rice

Momofuku For 2

Adapted from a recipe by famed chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, this minimalist-ingredient fried rice is a clever way to spruce up leftover white rice. Lightly crisped ginger and garlic add aromatics and a delicate crunch, and the fried egg on top just seals the deal. Get the recipe.

Classic German Potato Salad

German Potato Salad

I like all kinds of potato salads, but German might be my favorite!

For German potato salad, sliced potatoes are tossed with bacon, sautéed onions, fresh herbs, and a mustardy white wine dressing. It’s a nice change-up from the mayonnaise-based version, and you can serve it warm or chilled.
