We went to my son's friend's birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's today.
Originally we were going to go to Fruits and vegetable picking at a farm, but Jimmy got a little tipsy at Chuck E Cheese's (yes, they have alcoholic beverages there!), we decided to just head back home and relax the rest of the day.
Maybe relaxed a little too much?
I felt asleep for a couple of hours while my baby girl was sleeping!
So, tonight, again, is easy cooking. ha ha
(when do I ever cook anything difficult anyways...)
Recipe of the day:
Pepper steak
Pork Tender (Beef)---1/4 log shredded
Green pepper---1 julienned
carrot---6 baby carrots julienned
Shiitake mushroom (dry)---4~5 sliced
Sauce 1
*soy sauce---1tsp
*sake---1tsp
*sugar---1tsp
potato starch---2~3tbs
Sauce 2
*Oyster sauce---2tbs
*soy sauce---1tsp
*sake---2tsp
*sugar---3tsp
*water---2tbs
Mix those ingredients in a small bowl first.
1) In a small bowl, mix sauce 1* ingredients except for potato starch, then mix in pork. When they are well mixed, add starch to coat pork.
2) In a large pan, cook vegetables and mushroom with 1/2tbs of oil. When they are halfway cooked, put them onto a plate to put aside.
3) In a same Pan, add 1tbs of oil, then cook pork until both sides are cooked.
4) Add vegetable back into the pan, then add the sauce 2* ingredients and turn off heat.
Cook on a high heat from the beginning to the end.
It's a long weekend, we were planning on doing this and that.
But I've been kind of under the weather and now it looks like my husband is also getting sick...
I guess our memorial weekend is for us to sit back and relax...
Picture of the day:
My son discovered that he really likes pancakes.
So I made mickey mouse (?) pancakes for him this morning :)
(my husband did the mouth and nose)
