I cut one of the sweet limes - still tart, but nice flavor. Zested it first and mixed with sugar for the beginnings of a possible shrub.
Snacky dinner - some leftovers from my long flight a week back, that I had frozen - cheese sandwiches that turned into perfect grilled cheese, and pan-fried “dumplings” called Muthiya - literally, “fists” - bec they’re shaped by closing the hand into a fist. Still hungry, so soft scrambled eggs inspired by that thread.

Did you make those noodles too? Jealous!
No way. I live 10 minutes walk from Clement Street and fresh Chinese, Japanese, Viet (rice) noodles.
Plus wrappers of all kinds. And veggies…

It looked real good. To make it more “South-east Asian” next time, you could sprinkle some chopped red chiles for added colour and heat!

that’s a cheese sandwich you had leftover from a plane ride that you froze and then turned it into that scrumptiousness??? impressive!

dinner was out, 2nd night at a new South Indian place for review. Wow, it was really, really good. We had lamb keema, spinach and cheese samosas (my first non-potato samosas!), pistacho korma with veggies, and lamb biryani. All incredibly well executed, so tasty. Non-loving lamb BF liked both lamb dishes - in fact, the biryani was his favorite! Great rice, and wonderful chutneys. Glad, because it’s a family-run place and I want them to do well.
And now i really want to tackle making a biryani at home, but it seems daunting. It was different here than most I’ve had - the rice was quite separate from the meat, without as much saffron (which I do love), and not quite as oily as many I’ve had.

In our ongoing quest to limit eating out, I made dinner on a Friday night! My mom gave me a copy of Christopher Kimball’s magazine “milk street”. I think this is an offshoot of a podcast?
I made a broccoli pasta from it that needed a little tweaking for our tastes but really nice. I will top it in toasted breadcrumbs and half the garlic next time. Beautiful color!
