Down with the flu. I was thinking of what to make for dinner tonight and then I suddenly thought of savoury oatmeal, something I never tried before but heard lots about. My version was steel cutters (+ 1 tbsp red lentils) cooked in water with sauteed savoy and yellow bell peppers, with a piece of cod for protein. I melted a huge dollop of mushroom pate into it for seasoning.
I suppose my blocked nose suppressed my sense of taste cause I couldn't really taste (or smell) much. I could only feel the texture - creamy and chewy. A pity really. It kind of reminded me of singapore fish rice porridge, but a more hearty version (oats are heartier than rice), which sent me a shudder of yearning for yong tau foo and slurpy kway teow noodles. Speaking about tofu, I think I found a substitute for tau huay - Sojade's soy yogurt. Bought it from Whole Foods a couple of days back and it's like soy jelly.
I still like my sweet peanut buttery oatmeals better.
I'm watching a tennis match at the O2 tmr! I would have been more excited if I was not unwell.
