Heather says: You love those Ikea Swedish meatballs so much, don’t you. Of course you
do, you’re not made of stone. You don’t, however, love driving through
traffic to circle the 50-acre parking lot, or swimming through the
crowds of mouth-breathers that hoved in from the suburbs to buy
exquisite plywood shelving with sleek birch veneers. What in the fuck
can you do, though? You love those meatballs.
So
make them your damn self already. Mix together some ground chuck and
ground pork (about 3:1, respectively, for about a pound total), an egg,
a half-handful of plain bread crumbs, a quarter of an onion (minced),
more nutmeg than you think you should (at least ten scratches across
your microplane zester), four or five good cracks of pepper, and a few
pinches of crunchy salt. Mix only until combined, and use a little ice

Well this is the kinda food that I churned up at the very very last

Saute chopped garlic in
some oil till fragrant. Add in shelled prawns (found a small tub in the
fridge that weekend) and stir till cooked. Next, dump in shredded
oyster mushrooms and carrots. Mix well before adding the noodles. Pour

This is a waste on fresh prawns. But you can’t serve prawns that are
not fresh either. It’s a dilemma. The best thing to do it to think of
an alternative, which I’m going to try making this again using Bee-Hoon
(rice vermicelli). So remember to come back to check. *wink*…more
