Without planning to, I had curry three days in a row! The night before Jac made a Thai green curry with fish, eggplant, zucchini and peas. She didn’t cook the fish in the curry; she panfried a couple of fish fillets, placed the fish on top of the rice, and spooned the curry over the […]
Looks like my old trick of starting a post about something and finishing with something else! Jac had an appointment with the doctor one morning recently and decided she’d have breakfast with me before dropping me off at work. We went to Ba Ba Black (Shop 25, 60 Royal St, East Perth – next to […]
“What shall we eat?” we asked each other, as we lay in bed on a Saturday morning. “I’d love a Sausage and Egg McMuffin,” I said, thinking about a rubbery, spicy sausage pattie with an overcooked fried egg and chewy melted orange cheese. “Well, let’s go then!” said Jac. We went through the McDonaldR…
This was a bento lunch I packed for myself – a sliced panfried chicken thigh on a bed of mixed salad greens, with baby roma tomatoes, Always Fresh marinated mushrooms and oven-baked baby eggplant. Oh, and seedless green grapes for something sweet. Jac cooked the chicken and eggplant for me. All I did was assemble […]
Here’s a recent rice noodle stir-fry with chicken and vegetables (carrot, celery, bok choy and green beans). Don’t these noodles look wormy? They were very slurpable! This was the kind of dish that left my chin and cheeks splashed with sauce! :)
A recent feed at Spencer Village (Spencer Road Shopping Centre, Thornlie)… I bought a packet of nasi lemak from Sarindo – I chose the fried fish version (you can choose between fish and chicken). As well as a piece of tumeric-flavoured fried fish, you get fried egg, three slices of fancy cut cucumber, ikan bilis […]
After we went to hospital to see my sister-in-law and my brother and meet my new niece Zoe, Jac and I decided to grab some dinner in Subiaco. After some walking up and down Rokeby Road in search of inspiration, we settled on Edo Japanese BBQ Restaurant (320 Barker Rd, Subiaco). I would’ve loved to […]
We recently bought a Breville Snack Creations toasted sandwich snack maker. It’s great – it makes four sandwiches using eight slices of bread in one go, enough for a meal for Jac and me. I love these sandwiches as they are a tasty, hot, savoury meal and so easy and quick to prepare. Here are […]
Another recent meal – chilli and garlic prawns served on salad. Jac included thinly sliced fresh red chilli in the salad, which was a surprise as well as surprising.* The prawns were satisfyingly bursty, with a pleasurable bite from the chilli – just awesome. I want more prawn salad! :-D *A surprise because it was […]
Jac recently cooked me a fry-up for breakfast, with bacon, fried egg, tomato, mushrooms and a toasted English muffin. I buttered both halves of the muffin, and spread kaya on one. Can you tell the egg yolk was actually broken? Jac cursed herself as she placed it on the plate, as she poked it accidentally […]
