*cue heavenly music*
so by our second week here, Daiku and I finally sorted out the kitchen situation- and got a bunch of basic equipment! I'd never been so happy to see ordinary pots and pans before. and what was the first thing we cooked after living off of packaged and convenience foods for so long? if you know me, it should come as little surprise that the answer involved: brown rice! lentils! and greens! I could probably eat some version of this meal every day. the brown rice and lentils were cooked together, and on top went a mixture of greens sauteed with garlic and olive oil, topped with raisins, sultanas, and balsamic vinegar. heaven on a plate.

Hooray for kitchen equipment and great food!
Fabulous!!! So glad you you have equipment now, and were able to make (and enjoy!) that scrumptious lentil-greens dish :0)
The simplest meals are the best meals. Looks wonderful...
for the longest time after we moved to california, steve and i had only 2 forks, 2 knives, and 2 spoons. when his brother came over for dinner, we would generously give him a fork and then discuss amongst ourselves who would eat dinner with a spoon. it feels so adult to have kitchen equipment. :)
Even your photo is heavenly!!!
Glad to hear you're getting settled, Bazu!
boooooya! I hope I win!
:)
congrats on having a working kitchen again. -sigh of relief-
Horray for pots, rice, lentils, and greens!
Hooray for kitchen items!
I'm so far behind on blog reading and I really enjoyed catching up with you. Looks like you're having a wonderful time in the UK and enjoying some good food. It's great to hear you can now properly cook. Can't wait to see what you whip up next.
yay, pots and pans! that meal looks delicious. i've been wanting some lentils really bad lately.
Can I come live with you and we can make Cheezley sandwiches and enjoy cuppa teas with crumpets?

I'm glad that you already have kitchen equipments. Now you can cook any food you like...and that meal looks delicious and healthy..
