whatcha eatin

[~reefchik~]

Lunch today is going to be a small ribeye steak and leftover bok choy. Gotta be good!

how do you cook the bok choy?

A little olive oil in a large frying pan. Heat it up while chopping the bok choy into bitesize pieces. I discard the very end of the white section but use the rest. Saute/stir fry for about 5 minutes it in the olive oil and then add a little garlic-ginger sauce (I usually buy the Iron Chef sauces & marinades - they are great!) and continue to saute until the greens are wilted, the sauce is on all of it, and the white crunchy parts are just beginning to get tender. I guess that's about 10 minutes total.

Hey, how can you complain about food in a country that eats bubble and squeak, toad in the hole, spotted d1ck, and cookies that have "that squidgy orange bit" in them?
I love the names the British give some of their dishes. They all sound good too!

reef that all sounds nasty. The only thing british is fish and chips and shepards pie

The British people I know are all excellent cooks and make -amazing- meals.

I love that method for bok choy. I always have it with a piece of seared ahi tuna.

Had Chick-Fil-A for dinner tonight. Tried one of their new spicy chickens. It was tasty and quite hot.

It really is strange though when you've been used to eating certain foods, prepared a certain way of course, and then you're in a totally different atmosphere in regards to food.
And England isn't all bad. They have fantastic milk and butter, these limey cows are the best. And as I mentioned before, England has some lovely sweets, so that helps to make up for the lack in interesting main foods available.

Some brown stuff my wife called "steak". I recall having it in a restaurant a time or two but it's been sooooo long I don't recognize it anymore....

Kyle made udon with sesame oil and soy sauce. Mmm.

Mmmmm...we went to Che Burrito in Hamilton...I had a huge vegan-steak burrito with quadruple jalapenos. I think if I had to live on one food forever, it would be jalapenos

[xrayjeeper83]

I love jalapeno's, i had a few on my burger tonight. It was the only thing that saved it lol

[CarmenH]

Yea, they fix anything
