Saturday
Thai red curry (with additional herbs!) with kumara, white onion, and green beans, with Jasmin rice.
Sunday
Made home-made pizza!! (Pizza base was partly made with wholemeal flour). We made a big oven tray of pizza, divided into four:
- Margherita: tomato, basil and mozzarella
- Carciofi: tomato, basil, artichoke, later some rocket and parmesan on top
- Piccante: tomato, bell pepper, white onion, pepperoni, jalapeno pepper, cheddar
- Acciughe: tomato, anchovies, capers, white onion, jalapeno pepper, mozzarella
Monday
Chicken scaloppina, with boiled potatoes, carrot and broccoli, served with a luscious red wine sauce and a home-made focaccia, straight from the oven (with rock salt, garlic and rosemary on top). YES.
Tuesday
Quickly seared beef strips (sirloin steak) on a bed of rocket & spinach leafs, with parmesan shavings, next to grilled green asparagus (with olive oil and more parmesan shavings - woohoo!), a basil-olive oil-tomato salad, and grilled potatoes and kumara (garlic & rosemary), served with some focaccia bread (lightly toasted with some mozzarella) and olive oil & balsamic vinegar dip.
Wednesday
A quick dinner with fried haloumi (fresh lemon juice on top), a toasted wholewheat garlic pita, and salad: mesclun leafs, red bell pepper, avocado, sprouts, tomato, some fresh parsley and basil, balsamico vinegar and olive oil.
Thursday
Spring risotto: fried one white onion in butter and olive oil, until transparent, then added a cup of Arborio rice, stir-fried that, added some lemon zest (half a lemon), and started adding vegetable stock (1.5 cup, and then 0.5 cup extra water), and a little bit of lemon juice (of about half a lemon). In the end added blanched green asparagus and spinach, some grated Parmesan, and little parsley and basil. Served with the remainder of our haloumi, and some extra lemon juice. Yum yum yum!!
Friday
Ate out at Tonino’s pizzeria, Mission Bay.
