It's been a while...

Posted by Dawn at Sunday, October 21, 2007
Few days ago, Vicky cooked a new dish. Normally, she would just deep fry the selar fish. But this time, after frying it, she set it aside and fry chopped tomatoes with shallots. It tasted really good.I told Vicky that it would taste nicer with a little lime juice in it as the tomatoes she used were more sweet, rather than sour.



Over the weekend, I finally decided to do some cooking. It has been a while since I last cooked. Seldom cook nowadays as I am so busy at work and Vicky has been doing a great job in cooking. But since she does not cook Western, that was what I cooked for the weekend.

On Sat evening, I prepared roast chicken leg and shepherd's pie for dinner.



I really liked what I ate (not trying to be thick-skinned here, but it really tasted good). CT and Vicky loves the chicken very much as it was very tasty and juicy. For the shepherd's pie, I used minced pork instead of the usual minced beef (which is def more tasty) as Vicky doesnt take beef. She cant stand the beefy taste. So, I had to use minced pork instead. But in any case, it tasted good too. It was a healthier version as I did not use butter and cheese. If you want your shepherd's pie to taste better, you can add lots of butter and sprinkle cheese on top before grilling. I just made do with what I had in my fridge.

On Sunday for lunch, I cooked mushroom pasta. Used portobello mushrooms, brown and white mushrooms. It was a simple and tasty dish. Added garlic, margarine(didnt have butter in my fridge) and mushrooms. Stirfry them. Then, add whipping cream (not whipped cream) and bring it to simmer. Then pour over the cooked pasta. I chose linguini pasta for this dish.



For mushroom lovers, you will def love this dish. Simple and good since there are diff kinds of mushrooms in this dish.
