Here's What I Had For Dinner - Part III - Don't quote pics!

Hmm. Sounds good to me. Maybe some toasted sesame seeds to top and some rice vinegar on the broccoli? Radishes? Something zingy?

Stir fried vegetables in satay sauce

Sichaun Kung Pao Chicken.😂

Had to buy a few ingredients like Black Vinegar, Chili bean paste, Shaohsing Rice cooking wine and.....and the dreaded, Sichuan Peppercorns. Threw them out last year as I had used them incorrectly, whole instead of as above advises, finely chopped.

They, peppercorns (not actually peppercorns which I knew) might be going in the bin again 😂 or I'll use a much lesser amount than advised. They are ferocious!!! 😆

Not many if they're silken tofu - I've never been able to cook anything with that without it falling apart on me.

But if they're firm tofu - simply cut into bit-size pieces, place in a bowl with a tbsp of cornflour and any spice mix you like, stir to make sure they're all well covered, then shallow-fry until they're crispy. You can go Indian by adding turmeric and garam masala, Tex-Mex by adding cumin, chili and smoked paprika, North African by adding ras-al-hanout, Chinese(y) by adding five spice and sichuan pepper, or completely mad by adding whatever you grab from the press 😀

If they are silken tofu, you can make them firm up by freezing and defrosting them, but they still may not hold together quite as well.

Made some sous vide fillet steak pieces in a Demi glacé with a chicken mousse and finished with some crispy chicken skin. Served it to the cat for her birthday. An Espusso Meowtini

Spaghetti in lemon pesto with Italian sausage, kale and peppers.

Matar paneer and roti (store bought)

Treccioni alla Norma. It's just the simplest of tomato sauces (onions, garlic, tin of tomatoes, salt, pepper, fresh basil and parsley) with pasta and some floured and fried slices of aubergine. Simple but very, very tasy.
