Stir fry beef steak pieces and mushrooms

I bought a nice big beef steak on bone from Waitrose couple days ago. While Mr Chen has been feeling not well, so I better not to feed him a giant steak which definitely he will eat it all but with a very high chance of feeling more sick afterwards.

Usually if given steak or fish, I will select fish. I just won't feel particularly exciting to eat a steak. But I need more nutrition now, so I half the steak, cut one half into square pieces, and fried them with lots of mushrooms. And put the other half to the freezer. A lighter way to enjoy steak!!

Beef madras curry , pakora, cucumber, garlic nan and rice

The beef madras curry is homemade, using madras powder mix. Lots of onions, garlic and shallots added, and two potatoes and extra chillies. Beef is from the lovely M&S. But because their stew cuts are so lean which Mr Chen said he is really disappointed and ordering me never to buy those beef again :-S

The pakora is shop bought, from Asda. 12 pieces of onions and mix veg fillings, only £1, what a bargain!!! Mr Chen was very excited coz he thought I deep fried food at home :-S obviously I didn't, I just grilled them hahaha. Again I hate oil!!!

The garlic nan is from Asda too. Only 60p. We had one piece each. And I can even freeze two pieces in freezer, ready for our next curry meal :-)

With rice and cucumber, lots of coke and orange juice, a very satisfied curry meal which making us to work harder to lose weight, in the next meal :-S

Sirloin steak, portobello mushrooms, creamy mash and garden peas

有人見我煎兩塊12oz扒, 覺得有啲唔夠, 叫我煎多舊魚 :S

好彩我冇咁顛 , 食唔飽仲好啦, 餐餐七分飽, 冇咁易肥!

結果係多到見唔到個喋底, 最後又係飽到飛起, 減肥真難!

磨菇荷蘭豆妙燒牛肉 / stir fry of roast beef, mushrooms, mangetout

又係炒隔夜餸嘅時間啦, 之前roast beef都食剩唔少, 所以我諗加啲磨菇落去炒應該幾好, 因為磨菇會出水, 咁啲肉就冇咁乾啦, 再加啲老公最愛吃的荷蘭豆, 炒埋一大喋, 又搞拈一餐啦!!

Here is a rib eye steak we bought from the Hop Shop, Castle Farm.
http://www.hopshop.co.uk/index.php

It is a lovely place with very nice lavender field. We bought some rib eye and sirloin steaks and apple juice. Here is the first rib eye. As u can see it has a big bit of fat in the middle, Mr Chen is very happy with it!!

红烧牛肉面

每次炆牛腩, 我都會煮多啲, 因為如果煮兩人份量, 真係嘥火嘥精神, 所以每次煮呢啲炆嘢, 我都會freeze away 一兩餐, 有時囉出嚟加餸呀煮麵呀, 方便又好味!!!

Italian cooking class 2 - Involtini di Carne

the teacher said...
Involtini means "wraps"
Carne means "meat"
and this is topside beef slices wrap, filled with fresh breadcrumbs, pancetta, garlic, parmigiano cheese
i think they are similar to Hong Kong people's 金菇牛肉卷 (Enoki mushrooms wrapped with beef) haha very nice.

and the Sugo di Pomodoro !!??!!. ok the tomato sauce, is made by squeezing the (tinned) tomatoes with a vegetable mouli. so all the seeds, skins etc are removed. i m thinking if i need to buy this new kitchen gadget!! fun :-)

lastly the teacher said Italian meat dishes shall served with small pasta, not with spaghetti, tagliatelle etc.. so I used shells pasta! they look not bad at all!!!
