What did you cook or eat today (September 2025)?

[msmofet]

Went for hibachi tonight. Told the cook/chef I loved garlic. He added a lot of butter and garlic when cooking my steak. Then at the end he fried up a little more and topped my steak. No vampires tonight.

Aloo gobi. I have loads of cauliflower!

We served quite a few portions of that this afternoon!

I finished up in the restaurant at about 5.30.
B***er cooking tonight, I thought, so went to the nearest Chinese.
Spring rolls, Szechwan chicken, sweet&sour shrimp, vegetable fried rice.
Purrrrfect!

Yes. I used 1/2 Tbsp of regular lime peel zest and 3 shredded kaffir leaves in the paste I made. The recipe came from True Thai by Victor Sodsook, page 34. I didn't have a whole kaffir lime, unobtainable here, so went with what I did have. I can buy the leaves in hand frozen packages at a Thai store 80 miles away. They're like $3.20 for a dozen or so.

Made the paste here.

I wish I could send you some
Like rascal I got 2 kaffir lime trees

Your meal looks great Barriehie
Hope you enjoyed it

I had a big bowl of the roasted cauli and potato soup last night.
I cooked up a couple strips of bacon for the topping. Wonderful addition.

Boneless chicken thighs for sandwich meat.
Cooked using two shakey premix things I was given (going for any shortcut that’ll do today )

A taste test left me underwhelmed with the chinese rub (it’s ok just a bit too mild) but the garlic one (which is quite salty) is lovely. I’d buy it again.

It may not look very appetising but this cheap ready meal in the microwave for lunch is actually quite nice!

Liver and onions in a rich gravy served with mashed potato and mixed vegetables.

It was really good and I've a small bit left over for a snack later in the week. The homemade curry paste set it apart!

I'm sucker for liver and onions and have often had ready meal versions. What brand is that?

I get the impression that liver and offal in general isn't popular in the US.
