We got our latest Covid vaccine last Friday. Based on my past reactions, I figured I wouldn't feel like cooking supper. Brought some packets of joong from the freezer, and that's what was for supper. Good thing as I was very tired and developing flu-like symptoms (body aches)
But I also had a slab of pork belly marinating overnight in the fridge. Thought I'd better cook it up. This was my first attempt, and I don't think I will repeat it again. LOL! Much easier to buy when I am in the city! The flavour was good, but the skin did not blister as anticipated. The slab was pretty fatty. I packed up most of it for my grandson. who loves it!
Didn't do much forCNY, but I did manage Tong Yuen, the savoury kind. I had more dumplings than hubby, who is not a fan. I gave him 3, and some udon noodles. I think I eat this just for the daikon!
Tried a recipe from Jamie Oliver's new book "Veg": Reverse Puff Pastry Pizza. He had posted a video on facebook. I tried it last night and we enjoyed it. Would have liked more puff pastry as the sheets I had on hand were smallish. I pan fried a striploin steak to go with it as hubby is such a carnivor. We enjoyed supper watching the Super Bowl!
