Joy of cooking
So ST's been sick for the few days since back from farm stay. Dictator of the kitchen has asked me to take over the reign over her kingdom(except her oats) for a few dinner. And usually we would have home cooked chinese food.
Its been a long time since i cooked chinese food. Western Roast dinner don't really count. Just season the meat, throw it in the oven, carve it up, serve. Easy peasy ABC 123.
I find chinese style stir-fried meat and vege more complicated(thats for me lah). With a little limited space, one has to be organised. Cut this first, then that. Season the meat and cook the rice. I hate to forget something, like cutting up some vege or garlic. It makes me mess up the whole place.
But after that, its a good time to re-org. As you stand and cook the meat, see the meat being cooked, you take the time to think of what has happened, and what to do next.
Plan your timetable, when to do start this assignment, when to start that. (most of the time is thinking of "When is the next time you can go whack a ball, kick a ball, eat roast duck."). If not i would be sitting infront of the laptop, caught up in the fighting orcs or the undead.
So its good, make me think of more constructive stuff, sort out my ever messy schedule work and plans.
Now serve up the food. Usually this is the best part, where I get to enjoy my food. Well, unless it taste like crap. Enjoy!
Over and out!
