Stovetop bread

Oh the nostalgic smell of homemade bread baking in the house. To go with some garlic butter and wash down with coffee. First time I was doing this and I was not sure it would work out. I saw others doing this stovetop bread online so there was hope. My mom told me she made stovetop bread when I was little using a three burner countertop stove. An oven stove was a luxury in those days. Any bread dough recipe will do. Knead and rise the dough. Oil the pot. Knead the dough again and rise again, this time in the pot. Cover while cooking on the very lowest heat for about 25 minutes. Next time I will try 15 to 20 minutes because this time the bottom was too charred. I cut out the charred bottom before serving. I ate some of it as it tasted like a crunchy bread cracker. I think this needs fine tuning and I am up for the challenge. The insides were most delicious though.

*I tried it again using less time and it was perfect

Mash potato and coconut stew chicken with red beans

Mash is simple. Perfectly boiled potato pieces. Not too soft and not hard. Mash together with kerrygold butter and full cream milk. Butter first so that it can melt with the heat of the boiled potato. Any stew chicken recipe will do but add coconut milk and canned red beans that have been drained and rinsed. Add the beans at the start after browning so that it softens while the chicken cooks. Let the water boil down to a medium thick saucy texture. I did not have parsley but that would have made this better. Also golden ray butter was added to the stew chicken.

It was one of those days. We were not sure what to make for dinner. I had to go to the grocer for toilet paper so I would be able to pick up ingredients. I wanted red bean burgers but mom wanted chow mein so we went with chow mein. I do not fuss once it is healthy, easy to digest and simple to make. I got carrots, cabbage, and sweet peppers. Then some maggi all purpose seasoning. There was actual chow mein seasoning but I was scared of the MSG but I still do not know if what I settled on has MSG. My mom cut up the ingredients and I would do the sauteing and dishing out. I also made the tea. By the way, this is not my first attempt at a cooking blog and regular cooking. I used to do a lot of cooking when I was vegan. One day I will probably return to being vegetarian and then being vegan. It just feels like the right thing to me. Here are some photos. So basically cut up and rinse with water and vinegar. Saute in some oil. Then add seasoning, butter and black pepper. The secret for me f...
