Carbonnade (Beef and Onions Stewed in Beer)
From The Best Recipes in the World by Mark Bittman. “A simple beef stew that is good over buttered noodles or with plain boiled potatoes. Also works well with chunks of lamb shoulder or veal shoulder.”
Belgian Leek Tart & Aged Goat Cheese (Flamiche Aux Poireaux)
Cooking Life columnist Molly Wizenberg makes a particularly addictive version of this traditional Belgian dish with the addition of aged goat cheese. Bon Appetit Magazine, October 2008 edition. Leeks look like oversize scallions, and they are related to both onions and garlic, but their taste is softer and more subtle than any of them. In a word, they’re delicious. I love leeks but have to admit that I don’t cook them as often as I should. Haven’t included cooling times.

Belgium Waterzooi Belgian (Gentse Waterzooi)
The very pleasant city of Ghent, at the confluence of the Schedlt and Lys rivers, is the historic capital of Flanders in northern Belgium. It is also the home of the most famous of Flemish stews, Gentse waterzooi or waterzooi gantois among the Francophones, a rich chicken stew made with vegetables and eggs and cooked in beer or a rich chicken stock. Waterzooi can be made with chicken, rabbit, or fish. The parsley root is an important part of waterzooi, so do make an effort to get it. Waterzooi is very nice served with boiled potatoes or toasted French bread with some butter.
