I really like having company at lunch time, but I also love having lunch by myself when I have a good book to read as I eat (book of the moment is The Merchant of Venus by Ellen Hart – should be finishing it off tomorrow). And so yesterday, I lunched alone with my book. […]
Chicken biryani from Maya Masala. It is just so yellow, isn’t it? Even more chickeny than usual, which of course was great! Hot chips with garlic salt, from Jesters. Chicken karaage with BBQ sauce and mayonnaise from Nagano Sushi. Jac’s platter of sandwiches for Saturday dinner. I just don’t feel like doing anything today. I [&hel…
And so on Thursday I got the coconut milk on my way home from work so I could make the Thai green chicken curry while Jac was at hockey training. Everything was all set. I put the rice on to cook. I sliced the chicken thighs, I sliced the fresh green beans and the tinned […]
This week we had a team dinner after work at Chutney Mary’s Indian Restaurant. I had a great time. The food was fantastic, and my boss and workmates are all lovely and just really good fun. We went for the non-vegetarian banquet for AU$34.00 a head. There is a $38.00 non-vegetarian banquet option which includes […]
On Monday I made one of my old favourites – corned beef, egg, corn and rice. So easy and delicious and comforting. Part of the pleasure of the ritual involves the careful opening of the tin of corned beef – you know, the kind of tin that must be opened with the special metal key. […]
On Sunday evening, Jac made a curry – beef rogan josh. As well as beef, the curry had potatoes, peas, green beans, carrots and tomatoes in it. It was yummy. Jac cooked it for ages so the beef was really tender. I’m so bad at eating curry though – my nose was running like crazy, […]
Yesterday, Jac asked me if I’d like her to cook me something before she and VR left for Dunsborough. I said I’d love her to cook me a Thai green curry, and so that’s what she did. She used both chicken thigh and breast meat, and the vegies I like in it – zucchini, peas […]
I ate this lunch at my desk at uni on Tuesday. I really cannot get enough of this chicken curry! The vegies were good too.
We needed to pick up some groceries and drop off my new jeans for tailoring on Saturday morning, and so we grabbed a bite to eat while we were out at the shops (any excuse, really!). Do any of you have the same problem as me? I can never find any trousers or jeans that […]
This was lunch on Monday at uni: curry chicken, honey chicken and rice. Not much else to tell you, really, other than it was goooood.
