Album 'Scissor Sisters' 2003
Seriously what is going on with the weather at the moment?!
It's all about creating your own plates of sunshine..
Serves 4...or feeds you for the rest of the week!
Boil
Sharwood medium noodles
In a jug add a small chunk of tamarind with 100ml boiling water
Meanwhile in a wok:
Add 1 tbsp groundnut oil (toasted sesame oil is just as good)
1 crushed and chopped garlic clove
1 tsp lemon grass paste
2 chopped spring onions
1 carrot in edible chunks
Handful of fresh spinach
half a can of low fat coconut milk
5 chopped close cup mushrooms
sieve the jug of tamarind and add the flavoured water to the wok
drain the noodles and get them involved
some frozen peas
few cashews
and I added half of an orange pepper
Simmer for 15 minutes and then serve
The above might sound a bit hectic and busy but it's up to you what you would like in a stir fry.
Maybe try tofu
beansprouts
mangetout
runner beans
fine beans
The textures and flavours you want can easily be achieved and cooked very quickly, also it can be made healthy. Think of all those vegetables you missed out on last weekend!
Hope you have had a nice start to the week despite the weather.
