alright, well most of you probably know by now that i loooove to cook. but there one little thing about cooking that i don't like, and i'm not talking about the cleaning up cause you can always leave that to either your maid or your mum. i'm talking about those dishes with the ultra complicated recipes. you know, those that probably take you, 5hours to prepare and 2hours to cook. like what's the point right? i like food that easy to prepare, meaning getting groceries is a snap, and damn fast to cook. so today's special recipe is something really easy peasy that anyone could do it. around 10minutes of prep work (or probably 15 minutes if you cut damn slow using a knife) and 15minutes cooking time. and serves 1. its called ... plus some spaghetti enough for 1 person and 2 tablespoon of olive oil. cook the spaghetti for however long the packet tells you to. usually its like 8 minutes. heat the pan, add in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and when the oil is hot add in the garlic. toss around for like 1 minute and then add in the beef slices. followed by the 2 chopped up chilli padi. just stir fry for like 10minutes and then add in the capsicums. dont stir fry the capsicum for too long or else it will be soggy. remember : we like our capsicums nice and hard ;) after like probably 2 minutes of stir frying the capsicums, now add in the already cooked spaghetti. MAKE SURE YOU DRAIN THE SPAGHETTI FIRST!! we're making a beef stir-fry, not a beef soup spaghetti mind you. toss it around for about 2minutes and add salt and pepper to your liking. and then ... place everything nicely in a plate... without flash/ with flash looks simple right? well, IT IS!! a very easy peasy light dinner and it healthy too!!! thats all for this time, i do hope you all can try this out this simple yet yummy pasta dish and then tell me how goooood it was. =) alright, you all take care. loves, ali joe. |
