Decadent dinner calorie wise. Sea bass and carrot tempura with dipping sauce. Sides of rice, Sichuan blanched courgette salad, Japanese pickled celery and daikon. I have been experimenting with making tempura lighter. For the batter I used 2 parts rice flour (which absorbs less oil than wheat flour) to 1 part potato starch (which lends brittleness). I have been frying very hot for just a few seconds to harden the batter. Afterwards I finish in the air fryer. Next time will see if I can do the hardening step in scant oil in a non stick pan. You can't put a wet batter in the air fryer which will just blow the batter around. Cooking tempura in two stages reduces the stress around timing, for something that normally needs to be served immediately.

That sea bass looks delicious!!! 😋

Sunday brunch:

Multigrain French toast with pure maple syrup, sausage and coffee

Homemade salt beef we had in the freezer that had been cooked sous vide, dutch zuurkool stampot (mash with sauerkraut), glazed carrots, celery braised in the broth in the sous vide bag, roasted daikon.

LazyBlondeChef

Variation on a tuna melt using gluten free baguette and tuna mixed w/Primal Kitchen Chile Lime mayo & capers topped with shredded pecorino cheese.

acpgee

Starter of half a roast cauliflower with alioli. Main of beef hor fun.

acpgee

Starter of the other half of last night's cauliflower with alioli. Main of rice with air fryer Dongbei Guo Bao Rou. I have finally figured out how to do wet battered recipes that normally call for deep frying in the air fryer. Pan fry the wet battered food in batches of a single layer for a few seconds with a scant amount of oil in a non stick pan to harden the batter. Then finish in the air fryer.

LazyBlondeChef

Chilean sea bass, sautéed baby bok choy and salad of cherry tomatoes, Persian cucumber, Kalamata olives spritzed w/olive oil.

Yoghurt brulee. 130g no fat greek yoghurt. A teaspoon of granulated sugar. Blow torch.

RoseJaneNB

Super low calorie delicious zoodles with a creamy garlic and Parmesan sauce. Mix together crème fraîche (fat free), 25 g Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, pepper, sweetcornand a hint of cayenne. Oven bake “zoodled” zucchini without oil for a little while then mix all together and top with thin rings of onion. Lovely!!!!! I probably had more than 300g of zucchini, I’m not exactly sure. I used two whole big ones. But for a 250 calorie dinner I’m very happy and satisfied now even have calories spare for a bit of desert

acpgee

We had some figs that needed using up. Starter of salad with figs, blue cheese, candied nuts and classic mustard vinaigrette. Main was linguine aglio olio with celery leaf instead of parsley because we had that languishing at the bottom of the fridge.

Naked chicken tenders sauteed in onions and garlic, 1/2 sweet potato and peas

LazyBlondeChef

Argentinean red shrimp, amaranth w/pecorino and salad of Persian cucumber, cherry tomato, Kalamata olives spritzed with olive oil. When my partner grated the pecorino he included some of the edible rind but it doesn't melt and tends to clump which doesn't look all that attractive especially since amaranth tends to turn gray as it cooks.

Oh goofed with the first pic which was from lunch yesterday. Should have been this.

Good use of leftover chicken and peas. Added to veggie pasta rotini Alfredo...

Melted a little parmesan on top... Made for a yummy late lunch.

Slat and pepper tofu topped w a bit of sriracha, green beans stir fried w garlic chili oil, plain rice, red bell pepper w some French onion dip.

The green beans were the best part

LazyBlondeChef

Adzuki bean chili con carne with rice. Chili topped with chai fontal cheese which worked because I used the Mexican seasoning that I made a while back which has allspice in it and the fragrance shows up in the chili. I don't believe I've ever had adzuki beans before but I won't be getting them again. I'm a bit picky about beans and so far only like black beans and great northern beans but I'm still willing to try ones I haven't had before. Garbanzo beans are fine in hummus or falafel but I otherwise don't like them.

Dave's Good Seed Bread toasted and topped with laughing cow cheese spread, two eggs, and wilted baby kale. Served with one cup diced watermelon.

Pad thai with tofu using the David Thompson recipe with a side of sauteed spinach. I took the photo before adding a wedge of lime and a sprinkle of fried shallots.

Salmon, smashed potatoes, burst tomatoes and green beans (HelloFresh meal kit)

Been trying to get to the supermarket for days now, but my back is in spasm so I can’t drive!

Digging deep in the store cupboards and freezer for dinner resulted in an Artichoke, Pea, Broad Bean and Lemon Pasta dish. Surprisingly good! 😊

LazyBlondeChef

Went out to a sushi restaurant. Jalapeño poppers, gyoza, nigiri sushi (albacore, shrimp, salmon, eel, scallop, tuna and yellowtail), Sapporo beer and nigori sake.

acpgee

Starter of salad with grapes, blue cheese and candied walnuts. All white main of tempura sea bream and daikon with rice and tentsuyu. Tempura was slightly reduced in calories because it was pan fried quickly to harden the wet batter so that it could be finished in the air fryer.

Cauliflower steak parm with salad



Buffalo chicken taquito

LazyBlondeChef

Mussels in white wine sauce over black (soy) bean spaghetti. Lemon parm chopped salad. The spaghetti is one of the many gluten free pastas I've tried over the last year and a half. At first I didn't like it that much but it's starting to grow on me.

Lunch was a half portion of the non vegetarian portion of this:
