2009/08/19 Supper 2

From 2009/08/19 Supper

Pork chops, same as 2009/08/16 breakfast. They were a bit thinner, and in for 14 minutes instead of 12. I didn't want to risk turning people off with pink meat, but didn't want to over do it either. The vegetables included zucchini this time, and a lot of things were fresh from DeHaan farms.

It was a hit, the kick was just as good again, and I have one left over. Yum. Thanks to Amanda and her D300 (50mm) for the great picture.

2009/08/19 Supper

From 2009/08/19 Supper:

Nachos. One layer carefully placed, covered with toppings, then another layer of chips and a final top layer of topping. Every chip had stuff on it, and there was not socially awkward "mega chip" with 40% of the stuff on it. Made by Josh also, good job.

This was part 1 of FancyFood I. Everyone loved them. We all knew there was a lot coming (pork chops and dessert) but somehow, we ate a lot of them, and still ate most of the rest of the courses.

2009/08/19 Breakfast

From 2009/08/19 Breakfast:

DeHaan breakfast. An egg, not flipped but with the yolk (and white) not runny at all. This on melted cheese on bread.

A classic, both from DeHaan farms and now the 144 as well. Best served with skim milk or OJ which is between 2 and 72 hours old.

2009/08/18 Supper

From 2009/08/18 Supper:

Chicken Packets. Rice (pre-cooked) garden beans, carrots and chicken pieces wrapped in tin foil then in the oven, 400F, for 25 minutes. Unwrap and eat. Yum.

Josh made this. He was living at my house in that time between his lease being up and having his thesis handed in. Very nice. I love cooking in tinfoil almost as much as using my steamer.

2009/08/17 Lunch

From 2009/08/17 Lunch:

Hard boiled egg with (real) soy sauce for dripping.

Simple. Healthy. Filling. This is the million dollar invention.

2009/08/16 Breakfast

From 2009/08/16 Breakfast:

Organic pork with salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme and garlic cloves. In the oven, 200C, for only 12 minutes.

The vegetables are onions, sweet red peppers, mushrooms, chili powder and tin of tomatoes. Simmer until it's pretty dry.

This is one of the best meals I've ever cooked. It's a practice run for FancyFood 1, and I'm very happy to serve this. Even by myself, I found myself making "mmm" sounds. The spicy kick is strange because it's so apparent, but also so mild. Everyone will taste it, no one will think it's too much.

2009/08/15 Supper

From 2009/08/15 Supper:

Pork and (fake) crab in noodles with egg mixed in. Garlic, dill and lots of parsley.

This is my worst picture yet. I want to buy a digital SLR. All this food looks good in real life, honest.

2009/08/14 Early supper

From 2009/08/14 Early supper:

This is a favorite of mine from bubble tea shops. Condensed milk over hot toast.

So simple, so tasty, also very filling. It's a bit of an art to eat.

2009/08/14 Breakfast

From 2009/08/14 Breakfast:

Yes, breakfast. Spagetti with pork meat balls in cream sause.

Wii fit told me to have a big breakfast and small meal at the end of the day. It's good advice, I felt full of energy all day.

2009/08/13 Supper

From 2009/08/13 Supper:

Pork simmered with green and yellow beans and carrots. Seasoned with sea salt (very unlike me), celery salt and garlic. Thickened with corn starch.

My pictures are going to be poor until I get a better camera.

What this will be

I am going to start posting what I eat if it is note worthy and I get a picture of it. I will also include a short run-down of what it is, but am unlikely to include enough detail to call it a recipe. I hope this shall encourage me to eat better, and also may serve as interesting to some who know me, want quick meal ideas or just enjoy reading about, and looking at, food. Enjoy.
