Dudes Big Lebowski Tacos and Burritos Recipes
The BIG LEBOWSKI COOKBOOK
BURRITOS & TACOS “DUDES WAY”
Burritos and Tacos. What the difference, some would ask? What’s the difference? Most know, as does The Dude, but in case you’re from Bum F_ck, Iowa, or you just don’t know, here goes. Well, they are both made from Tortillas that are made of either Corn or Flour. Dude usually prefers Flour Tortillas. Tacos are a smaller Tortilla that are filled with various Meat, Vegetable, Fish, and or Poultry, or just about anything you want to throw in them. You fill the tortillas with your fillings of choice, fold in half and eat.
Burritos are larger Tortillas, made mostly of Flour, but can be corn. Burritos can have the same multitude of ingredients, whatever the person making or eating the Burrito decides on.
Where the Taco is filled with the ingredients and folded in half, a Burrito is packages to completely envelope the contents inside. The Burrito also may have rice inside, which Tacos usually do not have.
Also, one Burrito should be enough for a full serving, were as with Tacos you usually need Two or Three to make a meal and they may be of one, two, or three different types. Maybe; one Pork, one with Beef, and one Grilled Chicken Taco. On the Baja Peninsular in Mexico and in San Diego, California where the Dude, Donny, and Walter have been known to make many a road trip to, the Fish Taco “Rains Supreme” and is most popular in these areas. Yes the Dudes clunker was able to make it there and back, a number of times.
Yes, our hero “The Dude” really loves his Tacos and Burritos, most Los Angelinos (all Californians) do. Dude loves all kinds of Tacos and Burritos, filled with Chicken , Pork, Fish or what-not, and Dude eats all of them. But when it comes to eating Tacos and Burritos at home, most often with the Dude, they are Chili Cheese Tacos or Chili, Rice, Bean, and Cheese Burritos. The reason is simple. Dude loves making his Cowboy Chili, and once Dude has a batch made, it’s Chili and Cheese Burritos all the way. They’re easy, once Dude has his Chili that is.
DUDES CHILI CHEESE QUESADILLA
Quesadillas are a great item to serve at a party, along with Guacamole, and perhaps some Chili con Carne or one of The Dudes favorite Chicken-Wings Recipes, as the main event. Dude often likes to make a Quesadilla and have it along with two Fried Eggs for breakfast or anytime of the day. “A great combo!” says ole Duder.
To make a Quesadilla, simply take one or more large flour tortillas, sprinkle grated Cheddar, Monterey Jack or some type Mexican Cheese over the top. Put some heated Chili on top of Cheese in spots here and there, not over the whole tortilla completely. Put on a sheet pan and heat in a 375 degree oven for about 6 minutes. Remove from oven, fold the Quesadilla in half so it is in the shape of a half circle. Place on cutting board and cut the Quesadilla into about 6 pie-shaped wedges. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!

Ingredients :
4 Italian sausage links
1 pound lean ground beef
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
¼ cup chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 bay leaf
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (16 ounce) package dry spaghetti
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Slice sausages lengthwise, leaving links attached along one side; lay flat in a large skillet. Cook over medium heat until browned and cooked through, 5 minutes, flipping once. Transfer to a plate; set aside.
Add ground beef, onion, garlic, and olive oil to the same skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until onion is translucent and beef is browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Drain all but 2 tablespoons drippings from the skillet.

Remove and discard bay leaf.

Divide spaghetti and sauce among individual oven-safe baking dishes or plates; top each with a cooked half sausage and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and begins to brown, 5 to 10 minutes.
Anthony Bourdain Favorite Sandwich – Brazilian Fried Mortadella
ANTHONY BOURDAIN’S Favorite SANDWICH
The 5-Ingredient Mortadella Sandwich is an absolute delight for those who appreciate simple, yet flavorful creations. I found the sandwich incredibly delicious, with a perfect balance of meaty and cheesy goodness. The mortadella, crisped to perfection, provides a rich, savory base, while the provolone cheese adds a creamy, melty layer that enhances every bite.
Ingredients For Anthony Bourdains 5-Ingredient Mortadella Sandwich
To make this simple sandwich, you’ll need mortadella, provolone cheese, Dijon or yellow mustard, mayonnaise and a brioche bun (or sourdough or Kaiser roll).
To start, heat up a skillet or frying pan on medium-high heat. Once it’s hot, add a small amount of neutral oil to prevent the mortadella from sticking. Take 2-3 slices of mortadella and gently fold and clump them together to make three small piles.
Place each mortadella pile in the pan and let them brown and get crispy, which should take about a minute or so. Once they’re crisp, flip the piles and add a slice or two of provolone cheese to each. If some provolone hangs over the side, that’s even better because it will create a deliciously crispy cheese “skirt.” When the other side of the mortadella is browned, carefully stack the piles on top of each other to form one big stack.
Next, toast the brioche bun in the remaining mortadella grease in the hot skillet. Once the bun is toast, spread mayo on one half and mustard on the other. Stack the mortadella on the bun and dig in.

How to EAT New York PIZZA
PIZZA ?
“Yes You Can Make It” !
Italian all over Italy, as well as their Italian-American cousins in America,love to make this tasty homemade pan pizza at home. It’s absolutely delicious, and a lot easier to make than you’d think. This is the basic recipe for a Pizza with Tomato & Mozzarella, and you can add other toppings like; Sausage, Pepperoni, Mushrooms, and / or Sweet Peppers if you like. You can even make some delicious Rosemary Focaccia by eliminating the tomato and mozzarella, and adding fresh Rosemary instead. Once you know how to make this basic pizza, you can do a lot of things with this recipe. so give it a shot. Make it a few times and you’ll become a pro, and a hit at the Friday Night Pizza Party, or anytime at all. Buon Appetito!
Ingredients for the Dough :
1 packet Dry Yeast (2 ¼ teaspoons)
1 teaspoon Sugar
1 cup Warm Water (about 110 degrees)
3 cups Bread Flour
2 teaspoons Kosher Salt (or Sea Salt)
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil for dough & more for pan
You will need a Food Processor to make this dough.
Place the water, Sugar, and Yeast in a small bowl, stir it a little, then let it rest at room temperature until it starts to foam (about 10 minutes).
If your food processor has a plastic dough hook use that. If it doesn’t, then insert the metal cutting blade onto your processor.
Add the Flour and Salt to the food processor and pulse for 2 seconds.
Add the water / yeast mixture and 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil to the processor.
Turn the processor on and let it run until the dough starts to form a ball, and is pulling away from the processor bowl. Then turn the processor on again, for exactly 30 seconds and stop.
Get a large glass or ceramic bowl and lightly coat the whole inside with some Olive Oil. Place the dough in the bowl and move it around so it gets coated completely with olive oil. If you need it, add a bit more olive oil.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and leave the dough to rise for one hour, in a draft-space. Usually somewhere on the kitchen counter is fine.
After one hour to 1 hour & 15 minutes, your dough should have risen to double its original size. The dough is ready ro roll out and make pizza.
PIZZA TOPPING :
A jar of Italian Passata di Pomodoro (Tomato Sauce)
Olive Oil
Sea Salt
½ pound whole milk Mozzarella Cheese (Polly-O)
¼ cup grated Pecorino Cheese
8 Basil Leaves, torn by hand
Note : Passata di Pomodoro is puree of Italian Tomatoes, aka Tomato Sauce. I recommend getting the absolute best quality Italian product like, Mutti, or anything labeled San Marzano for best results.
MAKING THE PIZZA
You will need a half sheet pan (16.5” x 11.5” ) to make the Pizza.
Turn your oven on to 400 degrees.
Place 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil in the sheet-pan, and spread with your fingers so the whole bottom surface of the pan has a thin coat of oil.
Remove your dough from the bowl and place it in the center of the sheet-pan. Push the dough down with your hand, and push and stretch the dough until it forms into the size of the pan, and is completely covering the bottom of the pan.
Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rest inside the pan for 10 minutes.
Take a spoon and spread enough of the tomato passata (tomato sauce) over most of the pizza dough, leaving a half inch around all sides without tomato, as a border that pizzas always have.
Drizzle a couple tablespoons of Olive Oil over the pizza. Sprinkle a little Salt over the whole pizza.
Sprinkle the grated Pecorino Romano Cheese evenly over the whole pizza.
Evenly spread all the torn Basil over the pizza.
Then evenly spread shredded mozzarella evenly over the pie. Don’t over do it with the cheese. There should be spots where there is just tomato and no cheese over it. You don’t want the cheese to completely cover the pied or it will be out of balance.
Place the Pizza in the oven and bake for about 16 to 20 minutes, until the crust looks nicely browned. Serve and enjoy.
Note : Naturally you can add other toppings to this basic tomato pizza, such as Pepperoni, Sausage, or Mushrooms, whatever you like.
You can make tasty basic focaccia by not adding the tomato and cheese as the toppings on the dough. Instead, add a little more olive oil, some extra Kosher or Sea Salt sprinkled on top. Then add some chopped fresh Rosemary on top, throw it in the oven and bake, and you’ll have some tasty Rosemary Focaccia.
