For dinner last Wednesday night I made fried rice with SPAM, green beans, corn kernels, onion, garlic, egg and oyster sauce – that’s probably my favourite combination of fried rice ingredients. I cooked enough for a decent feed and for bento the next day.
I made sandwiches for my Tuesday bento lunch – three fairly normal sandwiches, and one experimental one (starting from the top, you won’t have any trouble spotting the experimental one! :)) Curried egg and sliced cucumber Honey leg ham, swiss cheese and english spinach with wholegrain mustard and mayonnaise Curried egg, cucumber and str…
I really felt like baking mini banana muffins on Monday night, so that’s exactly what I did. The recipe I use is Banana Muffins II from Allrecipes. I couldn’t find my old printout of the recipe, so I googled it to get another copy. I’d just weighed out the flour for sifting and was about […]
For my bento lunch last Monday I packed myself leftover rice and my latest chicken dish with no name from my dinner the night before. I also quickly stir-fried myself some cos lettuce with garlic and soy sauce. I’ve always love stir-fried lettuce – Jac’s not keen on it as the lettuce does take on […]
I cooked this for my dinner last Sunday night. I peeled a large potato and cooked it using a potato microwaver, then cut it into chunks. I fried garlic and chicken thigh strips in the wok, then added chopped fresh bok choy, sliced tomatoes and the potato chunks, flavouring it all with oyster sauce. I […]
I made myself a very simple dinner last Saturday night – San Remo chicken and mushroom-filled fresh ravioli with a stir-through fresh tomato and garlic sauce. I simply boiled the pasta and added the sauce, which came in a conveniently microwavable container. I really love this ravioli. I can eat it just on its own, […]
Last Saturday was my first morning alone with Jac away in Sydney. I woke up around 7:30am, which for me is a sleep-in :). I had a cuppa, wrote a few emails, showered, got dressed and caught the train to visit my parents. I’d promised to help them choose and buy new mobile phones. The […]
On the night of Jac’s flight to Sydney, we grabbed a quick dinner at Nando’s because 1) neither of us felt like cooking and 2) Jac wanted to eat a fairly light meal – chicken and salad seemed like a good idea. She ordered the mediterranean chicken salad (AU$12.45), with the grilled chicken breast basted […]
Another recent brunch at Hungry Jack’s (known as Burger King outside of Australia – see Wikipedia entry for information about Burger King/Hungry Jack’s in Australia). A Bacon Deluxe meal for Jac, and a Crispy Chicken Wrap meal for me. Jac’s already drinking her Diet Coke, which is why it’s not pictured here. I really e…
Lunch last Friday: fried rice and chicken and vegetable stir-fry with satay sauce, from 88 Royal lunch bar (88a Royal St, East Perth).
