Today's menu:

We did make pizza. No photos, since I didn't think of this thread when there was fresh pizza in front of me. Random but of information; the uncooked pizza dough did not seem to suffer from being frozen yesterday and thawed before cooking today. Also, homemade tomato soup can be cooked down to a good pizza sauce.
 
Today's lunch was simple: skillet-fried beef & cheese frankfurters and southern cornbread from a boxed mix I brought back from the US. Must have gotten the right kind of mix because the cornbread really hit the spot without even buttering it.

I read a couple of days ago that pizza dough will keep for up to 3 months frozen if it has a bit of oil over it

Do you know of an Indonesian corn meal with the right grit for either cornbread or fish frying?
 
I believe it originated in Quebec. I am prepared to stand corrected if thats wrong
You are right. But honestly, I don't know much about Quebec "culture" ..


Poutine (/puːˈtiːn/ poo-TEEN, Quebec French: [put͡sɪn] (About this soundlisten)) is a dish of french fries and cheese curds topped with a brown gravy. It emerged in Quebec, Canada, in the late 1950s in the Centre-du-Québec region, though its origins are uncertain and there are several competing claims of having invented the dish. For many years it was perceived negatively and mocked, and even used by some to stigmatize Quebec society. Poutine later became celebrated as a symbol of Québécois culture and the province of Quebec. It has long been associated with Quebec cuisine, and its rise in prominence has led to popularity throughout the rest of Canada, in the northern United States, and internationally.
 
Pasta with chicken and homemade pesto. I decided to use a recipe where you cook the pasta in chicken broth and then add milk and cream cheese (didnt use it) towards the end. The milk really reduced the bite of the pesto, which was unfortunate for me, since I love pesto, but good for the kid, since he hates it.

I don't know how to load them in here, as in my phone & the forum isn't & when I try to copy & paste from phone it says file too big
 
That is it in the cooking process...

Oh it worked, well I can't get finished product the tikka is already portioned up & frozen & the opor is almost gone - sorry
* note to self must do better next time.
 
I found some pics from when I made the same things back in Feb. I add lots of turmeric to the opor, so it maybe more of a yellow than white curry :)
