I still have to try this with tofu to see if it works, but if you eat feathered beasties:

Here is a recipe for Bathing Rama, a tasty Thai dish that consists of chicken (or tofu!) marinated in a curry sauce, served over a bed of spinach and green onions, and topped with peanut sauce.

Half-Assed Recipe Time!

YAAAAAAAAAY!

Tonight's no-measurements-done recipe is:

Krab Rangoon!
Note: This is krab with a "K" because I am cheap. Crab with a "C" would doubtless taste better, but it costs munnies.

Ingredients:

*Krab - or crab if you're feeling all fancy-pants

*Scallions

*Cream Cheese

*Won Ton Wrappers - I would recommend the square ones

Directions:

Finely chop the scallions and the krab. Add in a large blob of cream cheese. Mix together thoroughly. Adjust proportions as ye see fit. It should stick together, but shouldn't be overwealmingly cream-cheesy.

Put about a scant tablespoon of the mixture in the center of a won ton wrapper and folt the edges up around it. Seal with damp fingers. Lather, rinse repeat until you run out of either wrappers or filling.

Submerge the dudes in scorching hot oil and leave them until they are golden-brown. Take them out and put them on a paper towel to soak up excess oil. And for the Love of Benji, don't fry your fingers or other appendages!

Wow, I just now noticed that I accidentally double-posted my last entry. Oops. I guess I'd better hide in my closet and flog myself. Perhaps I'll re-appear in public wearing a scarlet "DP".

Anyway, I was cooking okonomiyaki tonight and remembered that [livejournal.com profile] redconverse had requested the recipe.

By this point, I pretty much improvise my okonomiyaki rather than follow an exact recipe. So here's what I did on the last batch, which turned out quite well.

Hello hello. Once again I update from the lovely Java Joy. Here's my first installment of catch-up story time:

Shortly after my mom had left for home, leaving me alone in my new apartment, I decided that I was too lazy to make myself a proper dinner. Maruchan Ramen was on the menu that night. The flavor: Creamy Chicken.

In order to make myself feel less like I would die from lack of proper nutrition, I decided to augment my noodle soup with fresh, tasty vegetables. I chopped up green onions, cabbage, and broccoli to add to the pot. I didn’t add any meat or meat-like substances and felt a little guilty over my lack of protein, but I was far too lazy to do anything about it.

With my ramen soup complete, I sat down in my camping chair with my TV tray before me and began to enjoy my supper. So full of noodles, vegetables, and speckled seasonings! How could I not love it?

Alas, my bliss did not last. As the bottom of my soup bowl came into view I noticed that some of the specks I assumed were seasonings seemed conspicuously aphid shaped. “Funny, that” I thought to myself, “I didn’t know that seasonings came in aphid shapes.”

As it turns out, seasonings in fact do not come in aphid shapes. I had just consumed 3/4 of a bowl of aphid-noodle soup.

After finishing my meal (I had already eaten most of it, there was no point in stopping now) I found the source of my unwanted ingredient: infested broccoli. It had been purchased at a local grocery store earlier that week, and I honestly did wash it, but it seems that destiny took over and made sure that I got protein in my meal whether I wanted it or not.

Let this be a lesson to you all: check your vegetables before purchase, and for goodness sake, put some meat and/or meat substitute in your ramen!

The End
