MCO - Day 44

30 April 2020    Day 44 of Movement Control Order

        As always, the Internet is a treasure trove. During this MCO, especially, it has been really indispensable to me, where recipes are concerned. Another food blog that I’ve been visiting is a family-written blog. The parents and the daughters take turns to contribute their kitchen adventures. They are, by the way, an American Chinese family.

        From this blog, thewoksoflife.com , I presented to hubby the Mongolian Beef. This morning, he texted me to ask what I would be experimenting with for dinner. When I told him it would be Mongolian Beef, the cheeky man asked, “The 2 ladies?” It got me stumped for a while and then I realised that he was referring to the recent scandalous news of the 2 unfortunate Mongolian beauties who were imprisoned for sex.

        Well, the beef strips were beautiful too tonight, as they were tossed in basic yet incredibly flavourful ingredients - ginger, garlic, dried chillies, scallions, soya sauce, beef stock, brown sugar and cornflour. Fortunately, they only ended up, imprisoned in our tummies.
“Dinner’s ready, darling, please help me with the photography and garnishing whilst I mop the kitchen floor.”
