Vietnamese garlic noodles is an unlikely recipe containing Vietnamese fish sauce, butter, sugar and parmesan.

We had some mung bean sprouts and asian aubergine that needed using up. Pork loin hor fun because the traditional beef could not be found in any of our nearby supermarkets. Chinese steamed aubergine salad with shallot oil dressing on the side.

Would you mind sharing your recipe for the shallot dressing? Sounds good!We had some mung bean sprouts and asian aubergine that needed using up. Pork loin hor fun because the traditional beef could not be found in any of our nearby supermarkets. Chinese steamed aubergine salad with shallot oil dressing on the side.
I'm assuming shallots, oil, salt, pepper, vinegar?

Below is the recipe is use for the aubergine salad, but I deviate a little on making the dressing. On the veg, I sprinkle on some soy, sweetish vinegar, and pressed garlic. Chop some green onion or chive very fine and eventually a little garlic, then heat up about a tablespoon of neutral vegetable oil until it is smoking hot. You can start to smell the oil smoking. Turn off the heat, stir in the chopped shallots, followed by the chopped garlic and pour immediately over the salad.
This is a Chinese technique also used for steamed (or microwaved) fish. The traditional technique would pile chopped green onion and ginger onto the fish, followed by soy, lemon, sugar. Then a few tablespoons of very hot vegetable oil is poured over the aromats to contact fry and blend the flavours.

A girlfriend of mine swam the English channel today and is coming over for dinner tomorrow. We had a 1.5 kg "special occasion" steak in the freezer which I pulled out. it is a Txuleton style rib eye of 12 year old retired dairy cow that looks very well marbled.

Lunch at work: Mac and cheese (super runny, not very good), key lime pie, California roll and a mountain of ginger.3 -
So my girlfriend who swam across the English Channel on Sunday came to dinner tonight. She couldn't eat that much because she was developing mouth and tongue ulcers from exposure to salt water. She was a little heavier than I am used to seeing her because she needed to gain weight for completing the Channel crossing. She coldn't gain weight by eating fattier meats (she lives in Hong Kong where that kind of food is readily available) because pork belly etc makes her too full but managed to gain the required weight by eating more carbs. That's telling.
Txuleton steak, roast potato, salad. Sauces were toum, zhoug, and hollandaise.

Not as fancy as the above, but here's tonight's dinner and dessert. Dinner was a small pork chop, green beans, and a couple small potatoes topped with bits of Beehive red butte hatch cheese. I highly recommend this cheese.
Dessert was a split banana, several split strawberries, and homemade vanilla bean ice cream.

Took pictures of breakfast and supper today.
Breakfast was a few potatoes loaded with scrambled eggs, red butte hatch cheese, bacon bits, Greek yogurt, jalapeños, and after the pic I added some cholula hot sauce.
Supper was a turkey burger served in romaine with red butte hatch cheese, tomato, jalapeños, and sweet relish. Dessert was a small bowl of homemade vanilla bean ice cream.

Vegan Szechuan including Di San Xiang where potatoes and aubergines were cooked first in the air fryer instead of the deep fat fryer. Ma Po Tofu where I just left out the small quantity of ground pork. Most vegan recipes for this dish add shitake mushrooms for umami so I should probably try that next time.

Smokey Bacon tempeh, Heirloom tomato, Kite Hill Chive " cream cheese", Vegan Queso, Nutritional yeast, dash barbecue sauce, spices and herbs on Ezekiel bread.

Back in town after a week on the road with less than stellar meal options. I just finished my Wednesday brunch:
Coffee and a little rolled oats to go along with what are probably some of the last strawberries from my garden this year (maybe 1/2 cup)
