Lunch ... the second course

Last night while I was looking thru the stuff sold on facebook, I found people selling smoked boneless bangus (milkfish) so I had two delivered this morning. I've never tried it before.

We had leftover corned beef hash so the wife made an omelette to accompany the fish. The corned beef was bought from another guy on facebook who makes it at home. Superb stuff

Attachment 75443

The fish was superb, two cost 320P or about 210B, delivered.

I was so excited about the fish, I forgot to get out the pepperoncini a few would have been perfect for this meal.

^Can't believe you've never had Bangus before, it's an every-day staple protein there!

Had a steak wrap for lunch today. Bought a small whole Aussie rib-eye and cut it up for the fridge and freezer so it made sense to cook some, add some salad, fried onions, mayo, and wrap it.

never had SMOKED bangus, just the usual fried

The wrap looks nice, no sauce or anything on it?

Ah ok, got it now and I've never tried it smoked. You can understand why I thought it would be impossible for anyone there not to have eaten Bangus before though! Can you get Snapper or Mahi Mahi (aka Dorado aka Dolphin fish) down there easily?

No, just mayo. Was still very moist though with the steak juices seeping out with each bite.

I've seen snapper but the price is right up there with salmon and I've not seen dolphin (the fish). Dolphin is probably my favorite among the finned creatures.

As I recall, my mom would wrap a fillet up in aluminum foil with onion, tomatoes and lemon I think and bake it. Maybe I'll try something like that with a slab of mackerel here.

Early Sunday lunch - hogget - 1/2 shoulder

The recent pies in this thread had been on my mind. A Chunky steak pie and Sausage roll sorted that out.

Miso soup; brown miso paste, 3 cloves of garlic and 2 inches of fresh ginger thinly sliced, sesame oil, dark soy sauce, hot chili powder, 4 spring onions, half a bag of baby spinach and egg noodles : enough for 4 bowls in under 10 minutes

Attachment 75790

That looks really tasty.

I can understand how Miso might become addictive, and does any other noodle come close to egg noodles?

Firstly, Miso soup is not supposed to have noodles in it. It is a broth soup with tofu. If you add noodles, it is most likely ramen or udon.

I would imagine that udon noodles would be more appropriate.

Well in my humble opinion any soup made largely with miso paste is miso soup in my household. :)

I love it, once a month tho. I would have done it with Soba but only had egg noodles but yes i love them too - takes longer to do the chopping than the cooking :)

Blimey, I'd forgotten this was pretty much from your 'hood snubs.

Apologies. :D

Speaking of which . . . lunch:

. . . with miso soup.

Mrs KW found a stroganoff recipe that added miso soup paste to it. Took the taste up a notch!

Definitely in my top 10 if you could only have 1 more meal list. Good price and fantastic quality this morning too.

Looks damn good. I have been watching you do wraps over the last few weeks and decided to do one up myself. Smoked chicken breast, TG bacon, lettuce, tomato and a ranch dressing sauce.

Saltwater prawns, they're what's commonly known as school prawns in Australia. Not frozen, these are fresh caught each night in the Gulf of Thailand and you can see them being unloaded each morning off boats at the back of the carpark of Naklua seafood markets (which is where I was this morning)

No idea what the grey thing your talking about is, she's putting the shells at the front of the tub as she peels them so maybe you're seeing an empty shell which isn't orange in colour once the meat comes out.

Excellent. The only prawns we get here are frozen Aussie tiger or Vietnamese stuff. Most disappointing

No need to devein those prawns?

Of course, there's nothing worse than biting into a prawn and the poo-shute is still in it. Yuck!!
Look closely at the backs of the peeled prawns and you'll see they've had a knife ran down their spines for vein removal.

Wow. Good job done there.

They're so easy and sooooo good :) Your wrap with, among other things, bacon - lettuce - tomato on it made today's lunch choice easier.

Will have to jump on this bandwagon. :yup:



What wraps do you use?

I think the last pack I bought, they all stuck together, and when separating them they pulled out big holes in each other, which resulted in me shouting at innocent people in a hissyfit.

I keep them in their original bag but then put them inside a big zip-lock once opened, and store them in the fridge. They keep well and never stick together. I nuke them for 15 seconds before assembly begins.

Edit to add, Foodland stock them.

I use the ones from MIssion, they come in a great ziplock bags so even easier..

Betcha they were Danitos flour tortillas. Those things stick like hell. They must put them in too hot and then the condensation gets to them. The Mission and El Sabor are more expensive, but much nicer, thicker, and as HW says they never stick together.

The instructions say 'use after 3 days' ... fuck me ... after 3 months in the Fridge they were still being consumed (and they were fine).
