Taiwanese Beef Noodle (台式紅燒牛肉麵)

 




I always wanted to try to make Taiwanese beef noodle, a popular dish in Taiwan.  The beef is very tender and the soup is very flavorful.  So, I tried today, except I was running short on garlic.  Fear not, I used red scallions and celery instead.  Basically, whatever leftover in the fridge, LOL.

Of course, instead of Chinese noodle or pulling the noodle myself, I was using the Italian pasta which was chewy and perfectly served as beef noodle.  The end results were not disappointed.  Yum!

Cabbage with Tornado Omelette

 


I usually sauteed cabbage with Eggs.  It's a very easy and nutritious dish I'd like to make for lunch.  But, this time, instead of the regular, I made a variation: I first sauteed the cabbage, then made a tornado omelette on top of the cabbage.

There is no recipe nor video; it's my own creation in the hope to make cooking fun.  Enjoy!

Nigiri Sushi




I bought a farm-raised salmon from Costco, followed the youtube video listed below to cure the salmon.  Left them in the fridge for a week, took them out yesterday and made the Nigiri Sushi today.  I think the salmon tasted better after being cured.  YMMV.

Beyond Burger

 


I was at Costco the other day and saw Beyond meat in the fridge.  So, I purchased one pack just for trying.  I didn't have an opportunity until today.

Combined with the leftover sourdough bread I had in the fridge, I pan-fried the beyond meat, topped with an fried egg and cheese under it.  It was very good.  I sent my friend the picture; he said he could smell it.  Lol.

Guacamole


 I made guacamole from scratch.  The ingredient includes avocados, tomatoes, sliced onion, salt, lime, olive oil and black pepper.  Basically, the ratio of avocados to tomatoes is 1:1.  The amount for rest of the ingredients are whatever to your liking.
