The answer here is, nothing! My stove is still on order--it's in the mail. They promise it will arrive tomorrow. (I've been surviving for the last 19 days on the 10 different ways I know to make a tuna sandwich.) So...my home-made Italian sausage is in the refrigerator waiting for a b-i-G pot of spaghetti tomorrow night. Hallelujah and pass the Parmesan!

Tonight is a porkloin done up with a garlic, spicy mustard and fresh green peppercorn rub, served with cheddar mashed potatoes, corn on the cob and a nice fresh garden salad.

Its tough to have to rough it but what the hey! Laughing

Well... to start, I had a pre-dinner makju followed by a bowl of beef bone ramen doctored up with vegies, then pork fried rice with onions, green peppers, carrots, celery and green onions. For desert, a big fat peach and coffee...

Grotto's dinner sounds better though - I've got to get an oven. Dreaming of roast beef!

tonight was Thai green curry on basmati rice, and I'm making something vaguely samosa-ish for lunch tomorrow.

Wow, so many people cooking good food! I don't know what I will eat until I see the menu. I wish I had cooking skills/motivation.

First a salad with bacon, mandarins, almonds, mustard, onions, leafy greens, mmmm

Then a family recipe: Hungarian chicken paprikash with dumplings and sour cream.

All leftovers from the dinner party I hosted for some adult students. The men ate it politely, the woman asked for seconds and thirds Smile

After having hosted several dinner parties over the last few years, I can definitely say that Korean women appear to enjoy eating unusual foods much more than the men.

It's all about the freezer! I made enough rice for another few meals, so in a couple of days when I'm too lazy to really cook, I can just thaw some out and fry it up with some veggies and an egg.

Yeah cooking for one and eating leftovers for the rest of the week (nowadays I only cook 2-3 servings!) can get boring... sometimes I actually look forward to having one of those 'school dinner outings' sprung on me Confused
I do like to eat good food though Smile so usually the motivation is lacking only when I'm knackered or holidays are coming up and I'm going away.

I'm having a pre-dinner, post-work beer first. Then I'll move on to the soup I made last night, which consists of:

sliced Australian beef, tofu blocks, carrots, hobak (what is the English word?), bean sprouts, leeks, kimchi, Shin ramen noodles/spices, and pepper.

Two words: mashissoyo.

- A wonderful bag of Orion's Onion Poker Chips.

- Two fantastic bottles of Hite Beer.

- 5 spectacular Time Lights cigarettes.

However, those were just the appetizers.

Haven't eaten it yet, but I'm sure the entree will be deletable. Laughing

Vietnamese stir fried chicken with lemongrass from my garden. And a nice salad with romaine lettuce from Carrefour! It's the first romaine I have had in Korea. Yippee!
