juletide has opened sign-ups! It's a rare fandoms exchange with all the Yuletide 2019 fandoms in and a 600-word minimum.)
It's been a while since the last food update! I spent a while at my parents', not cooking, in the middle. Here's most of what I made at home:
Yuxiang rousi – this tastes excellent, can recommend.
Repeat of scallion poached chicken
Mongolian beef – the amount of sugar specified in the recipe is absurd. I used maybe a quarter of the amount and it turned out just fine.
Did some sort of improv bok choy with garlic and chicken stock. It, uh, didn't go as well as it should, though the fresh home-grown bok choy tasted nice nonetheless!
Miso glazed carrots taste good, though my glaze was significantly less liquid that the description of "brush it on" implied.
Coming up:
Hunan beef
Moo Shu pork
Twice cooked pork
Sweet bean sauce pork
(after that, probably something to use up the whole chicken I have)
Sides... maybe a potato salad, probably lots of napa cabbage stir-fry. Maybe just watermelon. Or cucumber salads.
