Dreams, desires, discovery....
Jan. 7th, 2009 09:45 pmHad a weird dream last night. It's the second version of one I had just before Christmas. It involved me cooking at a hibachi restaurant, and getting soused on sake...
This time, though, I woke up in the middle of it. I was quite drunk at the time. Since I was up, I went to the bathroom, and I staggered the way there and back. I felt VERY wasted. And, yet, it was all from the dream....
....... yeah.....
So, I made a meal, and this time I replicated it correctly.
Boil low-carb spaghetti broken into 4" sections in water with 5T soy sauce instead of salt to season.
In a nearby pan sautee shrimp in a pan seasoned with sesame oil, but with an additional tablespoon of butter for flavor, until nice and pink/orange. Add a little soy sauce for color, then add in lemon juice and sesame seeds and cook until the sauce is thick. Remove from pan and set aside for later.
To pan, add 1T butter again, then add two zucchini and 2 large carrots, cut into bite sized pieces. I prefer to seed the zucchini, myself. You can also add thick sliced mushroom caps. Cook until soft, then season with a small amount of soy sauce, and more sesame seed.
Toss noodles, shrimp, and veggies together. Season with ginger sauce (1/4c onion, 1/4c rice vinegar, 1/2c soy sauce, 1T sliced fresh ginger, pureed).
Yes, this is teppanyaki shrimp served as a pasta salad.... And, I made it for dinner tonight. Not a strand of pasta or shrimp remains. I think I saw two or three zucchini bits on one of the kids plates.
