A bit slow off the block on this photo album.
This is the first actual meal I cooked in 2013:
Baked chicken with spicy Cajun seasoned bread crumbs
(Ok... I cheated - ramped up Shake 'n' Bake Cajun mix with Slap Ya Mama seasoning),
stir-fried carrots, zukes, and cauliflower,
and a side of brocoslaw with dried cherries and roasted walnuts.
Satisfying after a lovely drive to the farm this afternoon!
.
Fresh lily bulbs - a special variety that looks like the Tiger Lily but not noxious.
These are sold in Chinese markets fresh or as dried "petals".
They can be made in soup or stir-fried (as I was told by a Chinese student!),
but I love them ion a simple broth with a bit of ginger

Soo's #113: Kung Po Gai Ding !

Bowl of #113 with Jasmine rice and a sprinkle of Sechuan peppercorns
- a new batch of peppercorns - numbing along with the heat of the fresh chilis!
.
Vegetable "fried rice"...
.
Oven baked chicken with Cajun rub and Slap Ya Mama, roasted beets,
stir-fried beet greens, fresh mushroom sauce.
Blanched gai lan with sweet soy sauce.
Picked this bundle up in Wpg... mainly stalks but very young tender
plants.
YUMMY!
.
Greek meatballs, switched up with ground chicken
instead of beef / pork combo, sweet peppers instead of spinach.
These were pan-fried then simmered in chicken stock until tender
because of the raw rice in the mixture.
These are VERY good, moist and flavourful.
.
The meatballs are immersed in avgolemeno sauce
(eggs, lemon juice and the chicken stock used to simmer the meatballs).
These were served over a bed of spaghetti squash,
and we had stir-fried sweet peppers, zukes, and baby corn with the
meal.
Leftover Greek meatballs are decked out so pretty!
Had it with shiritaki noodles instead of spaghetti squash.

Grilled lamb chops with mint sauce!
Bill's birthday supper :-)
.
Turkey meatballs with tofu Shiritaki noodles, choy sum, bean sprouts,
curry paste
and Old Momma Chili sauce in fat-free chicken broth.
.
"Just a spoonful of..." Mmm...mmmm!
