Tartar and stir-fries

9/5/2012

It's only been recently that I wandered into our kitchen again since G is now sooo malikot and has to be watched over like a hawk. I bought a cookbook wherein there's a month's worth of planned menu. The recipes are fairly easy to do and most are simple Filipino homecooked dishes. I haven't really sat down and used the book to plan our menu (which I SHOULD be doing now especially with current home setup), let alone tried the recipes there. Now that I remember, I did try making leche flan and beef stroganoff wherein I burnt the caramel syrup for the flan (but the custard is pretty much ok according to M) and I had underdone the beef.  They're not miserable fails but I think I need a bit more practice to nail them.

Back to the subject, we had some dory fillets in the fridge and I was thinking of making beer battered fish for one of our lunches. But I decided to ditch the beer batter since I am still breastfeeding G. A hyper kid + a dowse of alcohol = not good combination. But I did try my hand on making homemade tartar sauce :) Result? Fantastic! I may have added a bit more lemon juice but no one's complaining :)  Recipe for the tartar sauce is found at Casa Veneracion (aka Pinoy Cook) but I didn't add any milk for my version of the sauce.

Meanwhile, a stir fry is a quick way to make a dish comprising of odd bits and pieces of veggie and meat. I marinated strips of pork lomo in worcestershire sauce, sauteed some blanched veggies, added the pork and then the marinade and some thickener to make a sauce.

Voila! Ubos ang mga tira-tirang pagkain sa ref! Walang tapon. Hehehe! Another way of using left-overs is making fried rice. We've been making garlic fried rice for our lumang kanin because it's easier (kasi bawang lang ang kelangan mo) to do. But I wanna try making again a fried rice dish. Sana lang magkaron ako ng time and energy for this. Will share it with you pag nakaluto na ako. Ciao!
