The first time I cooked with a casino theme was almost 3 years ago already – I still remember it quite well, since this was one of my first “big” projects. Back then we actually had a couple of Poker Tournaments going on – which made cooking something related to this theme quite easy-peasy.

Some months ago I also had the chance to cook something for a Fresh Casino Germany with friends of mine – it was a rather busy time right in between Christmas and New Year’s Eve, so unfortunately I didn’t have any time to take photos of this creation. But what remains is an un-edible photo that shows me cooking that night. It looked delicious!

Last week I got yet another chance to cook with the online casino theme – but this time it wasn’t just about poker, but also chips other related stuff. So today you will find out how my dish turned out!I should also add that I’m not a poker player myself – but I love to play other casino games like roulette, blackjack and so on. And back when we had live casinos here, I sometimes spent quite some time at the gaming tables.

So what did I come up with?

Well, since my original idea was to create a dish for Poker-Fans and players who might attend EuroPoker’s next Event, which will take place in Barcelona this year (and a smaller event in Vienna later this month), I decided to go for something “snackish” – Chips with dips! The main element of course were mini beef burgers served with different types of dipping sauces. There’s a cheese sauce, a barbecue sauce and what I call a version of the classic French Sauce Bearnaise, since this is another type of sauce you can often find served with fries etc.

I’ll first show you some photos from my cooking process – then you will find the actual recipe below!

Here’s how I started: after going through lots of websites related to poker and online casinos I came up with the idea for this creation. My original plan was to make one large serving dish representing an online casino theme, but after additional research it turned out that most casinos only use black and red as their color scheme. And since I already had three different dipping sauces in mind, I decided to go for a red and black color scheme.

I first started out with a large baking dish that I covered with black aluminium foil – then I put some small white stones into this tray that were going to represent the smaller casino chips. This wasn’t actually anything new that I came up with myself. You will find lots of similar creations on lots of gaming websites, so if you need something as a reference just click here. To get an idea what those online casinos actually look like these days!

Well, after adding those little stones it looked quite nice already! Of course at this point there was no food inside yet. So it might seem a bit empty. But if you want to cook with an online casino theme, chips are actually essential
And here comes the interesting part: I started out by preparing some dough for making beef burgers. This was done according to my usual recipe – which you can find here – with one little difference: in this case I added a bit of extra salt in order to give them an online casino flavor.

After having shaped the patties and covered them in breadcrumbs it was time to prepare some wooden skewers so that they could be placed onto the baking dish later on. These skewers had quite an interesting history behind them, because I actually bought them at Ikea during my last visit there! Yes – it’s true what they say: Ikea has everything!
Now it was time to get the beef patties into shape. So I pressed them onto the skewers using my hands, covered them with black pepper and then placed them all on top of that aluminium foil – which later proved to be essential! Otherwise these mini burgers wouldn’t have been able to stay upright.

After adding some salt around those burgers I decided it was time for an additional decoration, so I took a couple of small buns and used a larger round cookie cutter in order to create some discs for each one. And this is how they started looking after being placed onto the baking dish. Butter and breadcrumbs were used for making these buns nice and crispy.
After having placed some small red and black stones around the edges of the baking dish it was time for more items! I decided that the usual table setting would have been too “boring”, so I started looking around my kitchen for items that would fit this online casino theme better.
That’s how a coffee cup and a bowl was added on top of those round buns. Finally some red food coloring was used to make those discs look even more realistic, as well as placing a couple of extra stones onto the rim of those cups.

Be realistic

Be realistic about what you can achieve given your circumstances (time, space, equipment). You cannot be expected to cook like a gourmet chef, unless you work as one at least part time. Experiment once in a while, but don’t feel you have to cook something that requires hours of preparation or special equipment.

Don’t overdo it

Don’t try too hard to make everything perfect. Learning how to relax will help your cooking tremendously, at least if you’re like me and far prefer enjoying what I eat over the act of eating itself (a good friend recently told me he feels the same way). It’s okay for food not to be absolutely delicious every single time. Almost nobody has a natural flair for this; practice helps. And it should go without saying that there’s no need to be anxious about your cooking! That will only make things worse…
Have fun!
This is an interesting party trick I’ve actually seen happen: if you tell somebody they have to have fun while cooking, they just might. It’s hard not to have a good time if you let go of any expectations or demands of the result and just open your senses. Cooking requires more of our senses than many other activities – sight, hearing, smell often play a role in deciding what goes where and when – so get involved with what you’re doing!

Desire

Don’t cook unless you feel like it. This is sometimes easier said than done, I know… But there are some things you can do to make this happen: get more sleep so that you don’t get tired mid-day; embrace boredom at times by going for a walk or reading a chapter in a book (I’ve been spending far too much time playing video games over the last few years…); if you’re feeling overwhelmed by work or other commitments, let some of them slide temporarily. I used to think it was good for my career to never take a break, but now I know better! 5) Don’t cook just because you feel like you have to eat. This is more common than one might expect – there are lots of people who don’t actually enjoy eating very much, myself included at times – so don’t push yourself into it unless that’s really what you want to do. Forcing yourself only results in resentment. It’s okay not to eat sometimes!

Taste

Taste as you go along and adjust the seasoning accordingly instead of waiting until the end. The more you taste, the more you’ll learn about how food tastes when it’s cooked, and seasoning is a key part of that learning process. Once in a while my wife will add something to a dish at the end without telling me, but I usually find out when I taste it!

Confidence

Cook dishes you feel confident about. When I started cooking in my late teens after moving out on my own, this was hard for me because my mom had done all the cooking in my family until then. So many dishes from childhood were tainted with memories of being annoyed that she insisted on making them even though they tasted too bland or just weird. And frankly, some people have better places than others – there are foods I love that nobody else seems to enjoy – so if you’re not confident about how something is going to turn out, chances are the other person probably won’t be either. Cooking for somebody who knows better than you can help with this, but of course you have to be willing to listen to their feedback!

Relax

Cooking is an escape in many ways, the opposite of work in this respect. When I cook I can lose myself in my thoughts and let go of everything else; when I’m done with the meal (and if it turned out well), there’s usually that moment where I take a deep breath and think to myself “wow, this actually worked!”

Mistakes

It doesn’t matter if you mess up every once in a while. Cookbooks are there for people who want to be at least relatively precise when following recipes – which is great if you like having your expectations met whenever possible – but most home cooks don’t work like that all or even most of the time. Making mistakes is part of how we learn!
Personally, I’m still working on all of these steps… But at least I’m aware enough now of my limitations that I won’t expect too much from myself. Nobody’s perfect, nor should they be expected or required to be just because they’re hungry. Nope, there’s nothing wrong with being a mediocre cook – as long as you don’t demand perfection of yourself! Have fun cooking and just let go.
