this is SO up my alley… looks great!
reminds me of something i made when i got back from Japan last year, after having it there, but now I can’t remember the name of it. Maybe this was it… must search pictures.

Yes, but that’s done very fast after the broiler

Oven-“Salad” - red cabbage, red bell peppers, broccoli and carrots are roasted with paprika and oil in the oven and cooled down. Cooked and cooled quinoa is mixed with the roasted vegetables, chickpeas, parsley and a vinaigrette made from tahini, honey and lemon juice.

Tonight I made Serious Eats’ Bastila, which was delicious with a few modifications. I deeply browned the onions, used a combination of almonds and pine nuts, included the optional saffron, increased the phyllo, swapped olive oil for butter, and added a little chicken bouillon and soy sauce to the filling. This was a savory and lightly-sweet hit.
The one part I wasn’t thrilled with was the scrambled egg layer. Even though I soft scrambled them, by the time it was done baking, they tasted overdone to me. Next time I would just pour beaten egg over the chicken.
Served with garlicky yu choi.

Taco Tuesday. NYT Easy Chicken Tacos (which will not be a repeat for me; easy but one-dimensional flavor) on fancy flour-lard tortillas (which will also not be a repeat for me) with delicious pico de gallo and fancy avocado shipped to me by my sister.

Tonight’s dinner was half an acorn squash stuffed with a ground beef and rice mixture and topped with Rao’s marinara sauce.

Went simple tonight: New England baked haddock with a toasted Panko, lemon zest, and parsley topping. Steamed green beans alongside with the last of the crumb topping.

Alas, no Taco Toosdee @casa lingua after all.
Instead, we met up with the gang for buck-a-shuck HH,
after which we didn’t feel much like the heavy-ish Indian leftovers.
Instead, a veritable smorgasbord of Kleinigkeiten aka little things / tapas Abendbrot kinda meal: smoked duck breast, Boursin, our friend’s delectable seeded sourdough, shrimp cocktail, dolma, roasted sweet peppers.
Easy & done did the trick.

Thin crust chicken Alfredo pizza with added potatoes, red onion, jalapeno., and hot honey. Ate a slice and it wasn’t done to my liking so the other two pieces are with additional minutes in the air fryer.

Chorizo and bean enchiladas from the freezer. Avocado and radishes. Faux margarita. I’m stuffed too.

I realize this looks not so great, but it was actually quite satisfying. I had leftover rice, French breakfast radishes and shiitakes (also a quantity of star anise procured for free from a restaurant liquidation), so I made sort of this. The rice subbed for the starch slurry, and I added squid because I thought some squid would be nice. Came out good! Would make again!

Yesterday I got a strange dish for lunch at the market’s hot food counter: simmered pork over rice. I couldn’t tell what it was supposed to be–a little sweet, with a marinated hard boiled egg. It was kind of dry, so I brought half of it home…
…where tonight it became pork fried rice with mushrooms and scrambled egg, garlic, a little fish sauce.
