    My go to meal is Cambodian beef lok lak. My techniquw is a little different from this recipe in that I douse the sliced beef in cornstarch just before cooking. Shake the beef through cornstarch in a sealed food container or reuse a plastic bag. Arrange the salad on the plates. Make the stir fry sauce and tne dipping sauce. Fry the beef with the garlic until beef loses raw colour or garlic starts to colour. Toss in the stir fry sauce and continue to stir fry for maybe a minute until the cornstarch coating thickens the sauce. Serve with optional rice or sunny side up egg.

    Coating the meat in cornstarch helps it keep more tender, but you do need to use a good non stick pan, or a well season carbon steel wok or cast iron frying pan, as it otherwise wants to stick badly.

    Hubby took care of dinner. Side of green salad and vinaigrette we keep in a squeezy bottle in the fridge. Main of beef estouffade aux olives pulled out of the freezer from when I made a big batch a few weekends ago. Dutch andijvie stampot as a starchy side.

    Poached flounder, basmati brown rice w/rice seasoning and salad of romaine, olives, avocado, tomato & celery dressed w/sesame oil, ponzu and white miso. I didn't decide to do that dressing until I had chopped all the vegetables so the olives were a bit odd here. I added the rest of the "dressing" to the fish.

    Classic caesar followed by chicken tacos. First attempt at making corn tortillas not a total success because they weren't very thin or pliable enough. Needs practice or resorting to store bought. We used store bought salsa (it had been lying around the pantry for almost a year) and guac (no ripe avocados to be found).
