cat in a box

No, not a food post for once ;) Just wanna show you "my"
sweet cat, who visited me, when I came home from work.



And no, I won't ship her!

I made some samosas using this dough recipe for the second
time. As for the filling I mainly took only potato and peas.
They taste great plain, but even better with chutney... yumm!!!

When I bought the fish yesterday, it was because I wanted
to eat a bowl of noodle soup with fish balls. In the evening
I read a few beef/chicken/fish ball recipes and noodle recipes
for some ideas.

So I ground the fish this morning, mixed it with salt and pepper
and a little bit egg white, which was difficult to portion of
course and thus too much. Instead of making balls I decided to
put it in a foil, made a roll.

While the fish roll was in the steamer, I started to make the
noodle. This was the ground recipe, but I added the leftover
egg yolk, some more flour and a little bit oil. After letting the
dough rest for a while I let it through the noodle machine a few
times before I finally let it through the spaghetti cutter. The
result: the perfect egg noodles!!!



Now back to the fish. It's certainly the most boring fish thing.
Far away from the delicious fish balls I was imagining!! :(

But suddenly I had an idea what to do. I cut the fish roll in
slices and fried them. Along some Chinese cabbage and
Ramiro pepper and basted with hot vinegar sauce, I got a
Pempek inspired lunch :)



Now I need some elves to help me wash the huge pile of
pans, bowls and plates...

A nice source with some live music videos.

I don't know, what they are - I'm guessing: buckwheat
Beechmast! They're all over in the forest.



You might be able to see the scene in stereo, if you stare
at the image for a while (and crossing your eyes). Fun, no? :)

Happy Easter!

Sorry for the overload of food posts this weekend, but I
simply gotta celebrate the return of my senses :) It's so
good to be able to smell and taste again!!!
