A recipe I have to make again

Lunch today was inspired by WholeFoods' cabbage crunch salad. I improvised based on the ingredients list and another cabbage salad recipe. And here it is, preserved for posterity.

Serves 1 very hungry or 2 not so hungry people

Ingredients

1/2 head of cabbage
2 tbsp silvered almonds
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1/2 tbsp mirin (sweet japanese sauce) or any sweetener
1 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp light flavoured oil
1/4 tsp salt
pepper

Method

1 - toast the almonds by heating a pan over medium heat (or slightly hotter) and tossing the almonds until brown, about 3 minutes. be careful to watch them - it only takes a short while to go from toasted to burned.

2 - mix all the ingredients and enjoy.

So there we go.


We stayed up last night watching Curiosity land on Mars. Well, we missed the actual landing, but tuned in about 20 minutes after. The people on the team were so excited and happy. It was great to see. And it'll be really interesting watching the photos come in from Mars over the next few years and seeing if they find any remains / evidence of life.

We went to see Total Recall on Saturday. I really enjoyed it. It was pure action sci-fi with some very fun ideas.

Not much else happening.
