    @acpgee do you have a recipe link for those garlic noodles? They look really good and like they would be a quick meal.

    My basic recipe is this https://deliciousnotgorgeous.com/vietnamese-garlic-butter-noodles/
    but I added a little broccoli and prawns. I dropped the broccoli and prawns to fry with the garlic, adding oyster sauce and fish sauce when the garlic starts to colour to prevent it from burning. I took the pan off the heat once the prawns were cooked. I used Chinese egg noodle nests which cook in 3 minutes while making the sauce.

    Thursday dinner: Pork tenderloin, roasted redskin potatoes and baby peas

    Your Fiesta Ware color matches both the loin and the potato skin almost perfectly. Nice. But might be even MORE visually appealing on a different color.

    Sorry if my plating offended you

    Not offended. I love Fiesta Ware. I tried to imagine how fantastic it would have looked on turquoise, cobalt, or sunflower.

    First time making soft shell crab!

    I didn’t want to put a coating or crust on it. I found a super simple recipe with butter, evoo, sea salt, garlic & herbs .. came out fab!

    Put on a bed of Cauli - shroom risotto mixed with some wakame.

    Beef rendang batch cooked 48 hours sous vide. What we didn't eat tonight was tossed in the freezer. Di San Xian with the potato, aubergine cooked separately in the air fryer and green peppers sauteed in the wok which is a lot less work than the traditional recipe which calls for deep frying the aubergine, potato, and green peppers separately before stir frying together in a sauce. Smashed cucumber with black sesame dressing. Rice.

    I don’t bother making the balsamic reduction and just drizzle some balsamic vinaigrette on the rocket. I cook the steak on a very hot cast iron pan for 3 minutes total for very rare steak. I prefer to oil the meat rather than the pan. After resting slice against the grain for the tenderness.

    When I am in an Italian restaurant and don’t want a lot of carbs, I will order the tagliatta di manzo.

    I haven’t tried this yet, but it looks like another quick Asian inspired pantry pasta dish.
