after posting all the poké pics, I had to make some for tonight.
Decided to go with salmon with a mango salsa, enoki mushrooms, kimchee, seaweed salad, chuka ika sansai, with spicy aioli, on top of white rice and topped with a little masago, picked ginger and sesame seeds.

Kinda OT but maybe not:
I know it’s THE 1st world problem, but today I was thinking how I can’t shop for food and ingredients the way I’d like to for the foreseeable future. Whatever is usually eaten raw and difficult to wash adequately is out of the question for me now. I’ve really missed my leafy greens. :frowning: (I washed them thoroughly anyway, but anything that isn’t cooked/ peeled, I don’t really want to buy right now).

Dinner tonight: prik king with jasmine rice. Incredibly delicious, but it also lit my fire ( I mistakenly used a tbsp of curry paste instead of a tsp :fire: :fire: :fire: ).

Strange fact I learned just yesterday: that mistake is 30% worse in Australia than in the US!

Of course it’s not comparable to the beauty that Eugene’s wife built (it’s gorgeous and yes I’m jealous of this stone oven too), but I can’t not shamelessly plug my lovely Li Ziqi

I’m not sure if I would call it cute… It has an expression as if it is in pain, understandibly because its insides are burning :laughing:

This thread is an amazing source of inspiration!

Here is my favourite dish (if you count by how often I made it): Pasta Bolognaise with lots of chili powder :yum: :yum: :fire: :fire:

And from more recently, a gorgeous creation from leftovers for breakfast :smile:

That’s a sausage omlette, in case it is hard to see :grin:
