Some good food moments from this week:
Thursday 9/6/2018: I went to lunch with my roommate Emelia at Nana’s today. It was very crowded, so our food took about 30 min to arrive. We got our food to go and walked to a picnic table by the creek. I ordered chicken miso ramen and Emelia ordered a chicken bento box. The miso ramen tasted wonderful. It had sweet corn kernels in it that gave it the perfect bits of sweetness that perfectly contrasted the umami of the broth.
Friday 9/7/2018: Today I made chicken curry for our suite’s Friday night dinner. I cut up and caramelized one half of a red onion and combined it with one large tomato, diced. I sautéed two chicken breasts, diced into one-inch cubes, and after about 3-5 minutes added the tomato and onion mixture. I then put on a pot of rice, about 1 cup of rice to two cups of water. The tomatoes let off a lot of moisture so after about 5-10 minutes I only added a half cup of water (instead of a whole cup) and the spice packet, Kitchens of India: Paste for Chicken Curry. As I mixed in the spice paste a wonderful aroma filled the entire suite. I let the sauce simmer until it was thickened, about 10-15 minutes, and then poured the curry into a serving bowl and added about two tablespoons of sour cream. I served the curry with rice and crisped sweet potatoes.
