We had a student free day yesterday, the husband was due home Sunday but got delayed with the storms in Brisbane not arriving until Monday completely throwing my winging it into disarray.
So my weekly meal planning is somewhat behind but its now done never the less.
Monday night I did up a red noodle curry. It was sensational. I used a store bought red curry paste and some more wining it I teamed it with some asparagus, carrot and cabbage. Yum. Even B3 who insisted that we have a breakfast dinner loved it. The same, but different, inspiration recipe is here.
Tuesday is Korean beef stirfry I am giving it a go after trying some on Sunday night. I know I won’t be able to achieve the same grill intensity for the meat, but we will give it a shot. I’m not using the cellophane noodles that is in this recipe however just a bit of rice.
It’s just a three meat and vegetables for Wednesday. It’s our free day and so I don’t mind ‘slaving’ over the stove. Its crumbed steak from the local butchers and a Gado Gado salad. Its set to be super hot and we are almost in a drought I think. My house is shrinking like it hasn’t in such a long time; I’m going to be truthful though – I make this salad purely for the peanut sauce.
Thursday is an old favourite Chilli Concarne but I’m adding some shredded beef just to mix it up a bit. Sour cream and some lime perfect.
And Friday is the toasted sandwich night. My husband says he is tired of them but seriously how can one ever tire of a toasted sanga? The only advice I have is butter (with a little oil to stop the butter burning in the pan) plus butter of the bread and fry in a pan. I don’t believe the toasted sandwich maker can achieve the same perfection.
What’s on at your place for the week?
