Food: dinner

First let me show you what I cooked for Star and Adam last Sunday

the usual suspects: red sauced pork

bok choy. According to Star, I made the most delicious sautéed bok choy in the world, and I don’t even know my secret! 😉

pork short ribs and chinese yam soup

sauteed mushrooms with pork and chili

I instead made myself a macrobiotic meal: chopped lettuce, tomato, tofu, butternut squash, brown rice and miso paste

and a soup made with daikon, arame and parsley.

My sautéed method: heat sesame oil, add the vegetables, cook for 1-2 min, add shoyo, mirin and pinch of sugar. Add some water if needed, cook for another 1-2 min and serve. Sometimes I would top some roasted sesame seeds as well. A true asian flavor! 🙂
