I did make this tonight. I called it Peking duck conFusion. I used rice noodles instead of rice. Oh how the Asian chef angels wept.

Yes that's a shadow of my head.

This is a blessed bowl of hot yum-yum.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

All day breakfast for dinner tonight because I'm lacking inspiration - I just hope the poachies on toast turn out gooey and delicious. Got some nice free-range bacon and a few mushies on the side.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Whoa. A half arsed English fry up. I love a breakfast dinner. Baked beans for the win.

[–] Electronic_Owl 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, just got a tin o' baked beans out of the pantry for me. Mrs_Owl hates them and will be having grilled toms

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 2 points 1 year ago

Toot toot. 💨

Very easy to make but I can make food look more gourmet than it actually is.

Is that coriander? This looks really nice besides that, but I am on team #fuckcoriander (I don't think it tastes like soap)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Tastes like ass

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 3 points 1 year ago

That is coriander. Precisely cut with a pair of kitchen scissors. A bit like cutting a hedge.

That looks pretty yummy. Love your bowl Other Asian

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I need to find more of them. I only have 2 and now I have an extra body to feed she would like an Asian bowl too.

[–] Goddess_Amaterasu 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you have any Asian convenience store near you? That sells all sorts of things not food more like assortment of stuff. There’s 2 places in Footscray and I think they might sell something along that line. Next time I’m in Footscray and if I don’t forget I’ll check it out for you

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Thanks for that. All I've come across is those melamine bowls. These ones are ceramic.

[–] Goddess_Amaterasu 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah melamine is quite popular of late but there should still be some places that sell ceramic ones.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll keep my eyes open. If I have to go melamine I will but I don't want to.

[–] Goddess_Amaterasu 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ll keep my eyes peeled for all the Asian shops I go to

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] Goddess_Amaterasu 1 points 1 year ago

Not a problem at all.

[–] baconmash 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you got the authentic good stuff

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 4 points 1 year ago

And I don't remember where I got them from. I've had them for about 20 years and I've got the little ones to go with them.

[–] Goddess_Amaterasu 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So no Asian chefs are crying, you have 4 different Asians in your comments who approve. We equal at least one chef I’m sure 😜

[–] CEOofmyhouse56 5 points 1 year ago

I'm chuffed ☺. It was actually really good.

[–] baconmash 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

rice noodles fit perfectly here.
droolingly,
