...ASIAN (III) + (IV)

this week i have already been particularly good on blogging. i think i have never been that consistant writing blogs. or even follow such a routine for four days now.

applause!

(right, im applausing myself, because it is nice to be given credit for such a thing!)

but people i have not been that good. i might have eaten asian food for four days now but i have not cooked all of it myself. i was very lazy yesterday (which was wednesday - most horrible day of the week i suppose). it was not as if i had no time or i was busy doing other stuff. i just was not up to cooking at all. so i decided after strolling through the bookshop and reading re-decorating magazines and books (i am totally into interior design!) - i lost track of my sentence... so i decided to buy myself sushi. and i totally enjoyed it. it was not as good as i wanted it to be. the fish was not cold enough for my share but well, soy sauce tasted extraordinarily nice and the oranges afterwards were tasty as well.

i totally own up to that now. but at least i admitted it! ha!

thursday is exceptionally asian again,...

good. but i was good today. i was not sure what to cook myself. it should not take as long as rice would take, it should not burn easily, it should not taste to spicy it should not... you know a lot of different shoulds were involved so i took quinoa which my mam gave me once because she thought it tastes lovely (and it does!) and cooked it for like 20 min (1cup of quinoa, 2cups of water, salt & spices added). i pondered what to eat with it. like i could not eat salted quinoa for lunch only. after a quick look into my (empty) fridge i added some curry, as well as some grated carrots, i had some tuna left too (naturally out of the can...)... and to make it a bit more asian i put an egg into it at the end of my experiment.

as far as i can remember my food experiments have always backfired. but this one... you would not believe it, it was not only eatable, it was tasty and nice and spicy and it tasted a bit like tuna but not too much and a bit like mild curry.  

'very nice' i thought to myself. i will probably cook this experiments once again if i ran out of ideas ;-)

i had bean sprouts-salad with it (added soy sauce, sesame oil, some vinegar, seasoning and some of the leftover carrots i did not want to put in my experiment).

winner!

have a lovely day, x
