What's for Dinner #92 - the Fool Me Once Edition - April 2023

Dinner tonight was another round of stuffed shells for mom (assembled fresh from the frozen stuffed pasta from the other night and the separately frozen sauce), plus cheese.

Had a minor dinnertime disaster when the outlet that the countertop oven is plugged into started sparking, and I decided no further use till the electrician comes and checks it. So I cooked everything in the microwave (at varying powers) instead, including melting the cheese on top. No one cared, as it turned out, everything still tasted good, just not browned on top.

Sis and I had masala omelettes a la dad (though nowhere as good as a la dad). Minced onion, tomato, cilantro, and green chilli mixed into the beaten eggs and done. Dad beat each separated egg by hand with a fork so that one egg was the size of two, the ratio of masala to egg was perfectly in balance, and the omelettes were both fluffy and thin, somehow. Still, I haven’t had one in a while, and it’s tasty even when it’s not exactly right.

Tomato avocado salad on the side.
