Brown Rice Special


Here's what I worked with that serves 2persons:

  • 1 cup * brown rice
  • 6 circular slices * pineapple
  • 7cm * fat sausage
  • 2 * eggs
Artistic process:
  1. Cook brown rice in pot
    with (+/-) 2 * cups H2O.
    Bring to boil in (+/-)15min and leave to simmer off the stove.
  2. Slice sausage and dice pineapple slices. Pre-heat pan or wok.
  3. Neglect pineapple slices temporarily.
    Distribute sausage slices on pan and stir-fry evenly till crisp(or
    according to personal preference of done-ness) Remove from pan.
  4. Scramble eggs in pan.
    Remove and set aside.
  5. Scoop brown rice from pot to pan(if large enough) or wok
    Stir fry for a while in medium-heat (not till rice gets dryer/browner)
    Toss in pineapples to the fry; distributing evenly over the rice.
    Continue to stir-fry just long enough for pineapple warm-up to and to mingle amongst rice.
  6. Add sausage and egg.
    Stir the whole-lot till well-mixed.
  7. Serve before guests start fighting over appetizer-scraps.
Some tips to enhance your artistic-experience:
  • Have paper-towels or tissue handy at all times; unless you prefer extra "seasoning" in your masterpiece
  • Stir-fry with flair by varying your skillet stir-strokes. Broad strokes reveal the chef's confidence whilst short quick ones signify his/her fine attention to detail.
  • Wow your guests even more by tossing the whole stir-fry lot in the air with a flick of the pan-handling wrist, simultaneously executing a pirouette, and finally catching the art-work back safely in pan.
  • In case of emergency, have the pizza-man's telephone number handy.
    Michelangelo's anyone?

Easy Dinner

Mom was eager to catch last episode of TV-serial this evening.
She asked if I would go buy us takeaway-dinner. I asked Dad and
he said. "Why not we cook something. There're things in the fridge and freezer right?"
I thought about it. Then remembered that we got a bottle of olive oil not long ago; and I had wanted to try cooking stuff with with it! Aha! I'll use the frozen fish, some tomatoes and whatever else I can find.

Fresh ingredients into the fry:
20mins later, my creation was ready to be served:
"Pan-fried Dory-fillet with Tomato-apple sauce"












Chef's comments:
-Fish was fragrant with olive oil and coarse black-pepper seasoning.. (now i think almost anything cooks nicely with olive oil (^^)
- Fried tomatoes were bursting with olive-oil enhanced juices
- Fried apples were tender and tasted like "apple-pie filling"
- Tomato-Apple sauce that resulted from frying the two ingredients was yummy!
(^^)


Hope u're not feeling too hungry now.. :p
