Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend.
After eating out most of last week, I hunkered down for the weekend trying to get going on long-delayed organization and clean-up before I have family to stay in a couple of weeks.
Some cooking to go along, and break up the procrastination followed by spurts of work
Mix of actuals and plan:
—
Fri - Unfortunately named but delicious Umami Noodles alongside steamed ginger-soy yellowtail. Really good on both counts.
Sat - Mustard-green chilli salmon, dal, and rice.
Sun - Char siu pork with egg and scallion fried rice. Had a big mug of cauliflower soup earlier.
Mon - I probably need to get out of the house after a weekend of being a hermit, so maybe I’ll get drinks and a bite somewhere with a friend. Otherwise one of the meals planned for later.
Tues - Planned Hoppin John somehow turned into Biryani.
Wed - Leftovers of steamed yellowtail with ginger and soy, basmati+quinoa, added sautéed bok choy.
Thurs - Delivery - Thai green currry chicken (love this version because they load it with mushrooms too, and the curry paste is very fresh).
Fri - Probably out to meet a friend, otherwise leftovers or something easy from the freezer. (I need to finish the fish fingers and chicken fingers and random other junk I seem to have collected!)
Weekend - TBD but maybe I’ll finally get to the ground turkey ideas for the package I froze (two or three from: kheema, shepherds pie, larb, merguez, korean patties, kababs).

I also baked after ages because I was craving something sweet - orange olive oil cake. Eating my way through it now!
