Clearing fridge to accommodate food for my cooking class came up with a surprise stir fry! I had mostly salad vegetables: snow peas, radish, Persian cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, onion & red bell peppers. So, I decided to fry them in duck fat & sprinkled black sesame seeds right at the end. Just goes to show, you can stir fry any vegetables!
The rosemary slow roast lamb shoulder
a la Jamie Oliver has been so handy. I warmed up in its own juice & added chopped cilantro. Went well with my salad stir fry, seaweed salad and quinoa lentil.

Miso Soup & Salad
Tip for making quick, tasty lunches? Have a few ingredients handy like miso paste & soup in cartons, walnuts, all have good shelf life. Scallions is a must, they garnish, add a punch to everything plus give chicken breast & yellow miso soup some color! Don’t be afraid to use leftover cooked vegetables to salad. I had spicy brown bean eggplant, broccoli & roast sweet potatoes which I added to spring mix, tomatoes, walnuts & scallions. I’m in love with a ‘vase whisk’ I bought recently which is perfect for my home made salad dressing. I’ll tell you more about this in another post. Drinking soup from my black & red lacquered bowl with lid makes it taste so much better!
