#Curry Chicken Baked Rice

[buffetlicious]

Even though there is a Saizeriya (サイゼリヤ) at Sun Plaza nearer to my place, we have only visited it once or twice. The reason is because of the free shuttle bus service to Sembawang Shopping Centre that picks and drops us from the very same bus stop in front of our block. Being a fussy eater, mum always goes for the Black Pepper Chicken Spaghetti (S$5.90) since she doesn’t fancy the other dishes.

First time trying out the Curry Chicken Baked Rice (S$6.50). I am surprised they served this on a hotplate and not in a baking dish. While the cheesy rice is decent with just enough curry flavours to whet the appetite, the chicken tenders were on the drier side.

ngl without any shame potatoes are my absolute favourite food. i can eat them any time, any place, any form. i'll cook them everyday, all year. i'll invent new recipes, just to enjoy them in even more versions. i'll consume them until im sick. i'll eat potatoes until i become one.

keeping soup/stew bases on hand is truly the most useful thing for cooking. like, if you have a thing of miso paste and/or a thing of gochujang and/or a can of tomatoes and/or a box of curry roux suddenly your cooking repertoire suddenly expands exponentially. not only can u make soup but u can also suddenly make super easy flavorful marinades. a bunch of sauces. add a little zing to ur carb of choice. instantly make any meal less sad. transform one meal into three so u dont get bored. the possibilities are endless.

Thai Red Curry Chicken Bake It couldn't be easier to prepare this baked chicken curry dish: just mix up the sauce, chop an onion, and then sit back and unwind as it bakes.

What things smell like according to Logan Howlett/ The Wolverine. A series of smell based headcanons. Do with these whatever you want :)

People:

Ororo: burnt marshmellows, rain, chunky chocolate chip cookies, protien shakes, spansih rice, chillies, and cocoa butter. She always smells great.

Scott: cucumber shampoo, the remaints of a bonfire the next day, fresh dry cleaning, axe shower gel, lavender sheets

Jean: caramel latte, lavender sheets, vanilla spiced chai, books, mint ice cream, fruit smoothies, stinky hair product, lemon poppy seed muffins, sassafras

Hank: Books, sanatizer, various chemicals, a very specifc fur dander, kinda musky but in a 'im covered in fur and sweaty' kind of way.

Rouge: "Dolly Parton", brick and concrete dust, cherry blossoms body spray, freshly engraved wood, strawberries and milk conditioner, spicy gaucamole and freshly sizzled sausages.

Gambit: tv static, a fresh deck of cards at the casino, spicy jumbo, gin, lime jello, hair gel, "suprisingly good actually"

Kurt: brimstone, smoke from franckinsense, myrrh, a less smelling dander then hank, Holy chrism oil (olive oil and Balsam made by catholic priests), metal, and blue raspberry. Fur/ beard pomade sometimes for special ocassions.

Morph: even when changed he can smell is sandlewood shampoo, he smells like how "Jack Outta smell", latex, pine and cedar, clear nail polish, "that ugly quilt that your grandma kept on the back of her couch that was the warmest, softest thing you've ever slept with."

Charles: Old man fart, metal, chalk, shoe polish, nutmeg, wool, "a trusting hug", books, mahogany, expensive champagne.

Laura: "teen spirit", a shitty cheap "girl power" deodorant that doesn't do well hiding the sweat, apples and peaches, kinda woodsy.

Wade: Cancer, gun smoke, citrus dish soap, blood, oranges, taco sauce, infected skin once in awhile, red dye 40, slight over cooked and crispy apple pie, sugary cereal

Puppins: wet dog, dog dander, oatmeal senstive skin puppy shampoo, chicken, "the dirtest trash she can find to roll in on her walk"

Althea: Old lady, way too strong perfumes, butter biscuits, tea, peppermint candies, more cocaine, "baby powder", lanvender linens, cotton and daisy's Landry detergent.

Feelings/emotions:

Big/serious lies: smell like Gasoline and salty sand near the sea.

Small fibs/playful/ teasing lies: smell like Anise

Lies with decent intentions/are bent truths: smell like honey

Those two are easily mixed up.

Innocent (the person truly believes it. Ex. A child saying dinos are real) truth: smells like thick vanilla creamer.

Filling, whole truths (the person knows for a fact its a truth) smells: like fresh baked rolls/buns

Cancer smells vary like: urine, nail polish remover, some people have a pungent semi sweet smell like rotting fruit, and tar is another smell, depending on which part of the body. If already in late stages, one can smell like cadavers. Even spicy almost.

Pregnant people vary in scent but he can smell the rise of different hormones: Some hormones sweeter then other. If you asked him he would say cinnamon or dying roses. If you're later in your term the scents are more soft like lotion or custard. Lemon ussually.

Serotonin; cheese, lemon cakes, fruity, a bit light, and flakey like a pastry. Marshmellow fluff.

Dopamine; sweet fresh coffee, doritos(?), cocaine. Don't ask why he knows what cocaine smells like. He was alive during coke cocaine.

Endorphins; Sweaty Sex, mint, dark chocolate, violets, chemicals, varies by persons pheromones

Oxytocin; "playful cherries", freshly washed cotton pillows, the warmth of a bath, skin on skin hugs, strawberries

Joy/relaxation/relief: Jasmine, vanilla sugar cookies, fresh soup.

Writing Notes: Herbs, Spices & Seasoning

Herbs and spices can add flavor and variety to your food.

Use a little at first, then add more when you are sure you like the flavor.

To substitute dry herbs for fresh, use ¼ teaspoon powder or 1 teaspoon crushed for 1 tablespoon fresh chopped herbs. Some herbs and spices are expensive.

You might want to buy only a few of the less expensive herbs and spices you will use.

Herbs and spices lose flavor and can spoil or get buggy if kept in the cupboard longer than a year.

If you use herbs and spices slowly, buy small containers, or store them in the freezer.

MY RECIPES:

SWEET POTATO PIE

MAKES: 1 x 8-9” pie

INGREDIENTS

1 ½ lbs sweet potatoes (2-3 potatoes) (3 cups flesh), whole, to be roasted

1 x 12 oz can evaporated milk

1 cup (200g) dark brown sugar

2 eggs

5 Tbsp (70g) butter, melted

1 Tbsp lemon zest (zest of 1 lemon)

1 tsp lemon juice

1 Tbsp cinnamon

½ tsp kosher salt

½ tsp ginger

¼ tsp nutmeg

a few cracks (⅛ tsp) freshly ground black pepper

+

1 disc (½ recipe) All-Butter Pie Crust*

*I’ve posted my pie crust recipe on tumblr before tagged “recipes”

DIRECTIONS

1. Roast sweet potatoes: Preheat oven to 400°. Line a baking sheet with foil. Wash and scrub whole sweet potatoes. Pierce potatoes all over 3-5x with paring knife. Roast 45 minutes until fork tender. Let cool, then collect 3 cups flesh.

2. Prepare crust: Roll out pie dough (12-14” diameter circle, ¼” thick). Press into tin and crimp edges. Chill shaped shell in fridge or freezer until ready to use.

3. Preheat oven to 350°.

4. Make filling: Put all ingredients in food processor. Pulse 3-4x until smooth. (You can also use a blender, or simply beat ingredients until fully combined.)

5. Pour filling into pie shell.

6. Bake 45-60 minutes until puffed and firmly set (toothpick clean) everywhere except the very center, which should retain a very slight jiggle (but not look liquid). The center will set as it cools. Start checking at 45 minutes and continue baking at 5 minute intervals until set. (If crust gets too brown, shield edges with foil.)

7. Let cool completely before serving, at least 1 hour.

NOTES

Roast the potatoes whole, in the skins, so the sugars & starches properly caramelize. Do not steam or boil potatoes, even whole. They will take on water and make the filling soggy.

You can roast the potatoes up to 1 week in advance. Collect flesh day of.

PECAN PIE

MAKES: 1 x 8-9” pie

INGREDIENTS

2 cups (250g) chopped pecans

1 cup (200g) dark brown sugar

1 cup light or dark corn syrup

¼ cup (56g) butter

4 eggs

1 Tbsp vanilla

1 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp cinnamon

+

1 disc (½ recipe) All-Butter Pie Crust

DIRECTIONS

1. Prepare shell: Roll out pie dough (12-14” diameter circle, ¼” thick), press into tin, crimp edges. Chill shaped shell in fridge or freezer until ready to use.

2. Preheat oven to 350°.

3. Cook sugar syrup: In a saucepan, bring sugar, corn syrup, and butter to boil over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, whisking constantly, to cook sugar. Take off heat. Let cool slightly, 3 minutes.

4. Temper eggs: In a bowl, beat eggs until lightened and frothy. Slowly, while whisking, pour ½ cup of warm syrup into eggs. Whisk to combine. Then, while whisking, slowly pour egg mixture back into the remaining syrup mixture. Whisk until smooth.

5. Whisk in vanilla, salt, and cinnamon.

6. Pour chopped pecans into bottom of pie shell. Pour filling over pecans.

7. Bake 45-60 minutes until fully set everywhere except the very center, which should retain a very slight jiggle. The center will set as it cools. Start checking at 45 minutes and continue baking at 5 minute intervals until set.

8. Let cool completely before serving, at least 1 hour.

NOTES

Many recipes do not require you to cook the sugar before baking the pie. However, pre-cooking the sugar (and tempering the eggs) ensures the ideal gooey, silky, perfectly smooth texture.

Toast pecans if desired: Arrange pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast in preheated oven 5-8 minutes.

been a while but here's what i'm cooking this week, extra special and laborious since it's my gf's bday this week:

a very easy red curry w rice noodles + chicken + coconut milk

another very easy pasta dish, maybe w bacon, but mostly just with parm and butter

big container of homemade garlic dill pickle chips

frying some of those pickles w creamy herby homemade ranch

MAYBE i'll make a batch of brown butter miso chocolate chip cookies to keep around for a snack if im feeling crazy

big fluffy buttermiilk pancakes w a side of thick cut bacon and a generous drizzle of maple syrup

cold crisp cucumber salad w snap peas and lemon and red wine vinegar and herbs and maybe feta

fried chicken sandwiches w the homemade pickles, mayo, + brioche buns. the meat either dry brined w spices, salt, sugar, + msg uncovered on a rack in the fridge or brined in whatever pickle juice i have leftover

a fudgy, decadent 4 layered mud cake with dark chocolate ganache and fudge frosting. i splurged for fancy baking chocolate and dutch process cocoa to make it extra special + itll be topped w birthday candles, same as last year :))

[hillbillyoracle]

If you have a chronic pain condition, get a rice cooker. They're decently cheap, you can often thrift them, and they make so many meals.

My go to is "garbage rice" - toss in rice, a frozen veggie mix (usually peas, corn, and carrot), add spices (usually curry spices) and water then cook. After about 10 minutes of cooking crack and egg or two in and cover until done. Add some tamari sauce or similar and top with a slice of cheese.

Takes me less than 5 minutes of standing time.

I've skipped the egg in favor of canned chicken then added jarred sauces (usually curries) and that's excellent too.

By using all frozen or shelf stable foods, I don't have to meal plan. I just stock a set list of ingredients and mix and match. I can just throw something together when I'm hungry.

If you have more energy, I've baked cookies in mine, made Mac n cheese, and made hot pot like soups (I fell in love with mine in my dorm room).

I know people sing the praises of the slow cooker and instant pot but I think nothing beats the simplicity and ease of cleaning of a rice cooker. Just feels more manageable.

the taste of love is not just extravagant five course feasts and medium rare wagyu beef.

The taste of love is taking out the tomatoes from my omelets because I hate tomatoes.

The taste of love is cracking open walnuts and picking away the shell gently, nuts rattling in a bowl.

The taste of love is al dente pasta, not too hard, not too soft, just right.

The taste of love is perfect ratios of spices, my favorite flavors, rubbed onto tenderloin steak.

The taste of love is fresh, ripe and tart blueberries on greek yogurt, on warm, busy Monday mornings.

The taste of love is warm, soothing peppermint tea on chilly, calm Friday evenings.

The taste of love is being spoon fed warm rice with chicken curry, a gentle handkerchief brushing away the tears on my cheeks.

The taste of love is strawberry preserves poured into popsicle molds, crafted for sore throats.

the taste of love is hand tossed, heart shaped pizzas with olives as the eyes and a mushroom slice as the nose and a sliver of bell pepper as the smile.

The taste of love is chiffon cake baked from scratch, iced with the words “I love you”, crumbs melting on your tongue, the taste of triumph, the taste of support and congratulations.

The taste of love is the chef's finest ingredient.

Attention and care.

How early is too early to have a sandwich for breakfast? Today I’m feeling grateful for being able to go to a 7am Pilates class, come home, shower, and lay in bed naked reading Substack on my phone while drinking an americano with steamed oat milk. I’m slowly starting my work day now, still in bed.

I don’t know if it’s the passing of time, the rain, my friends canceling our Minneapolis road trip, general anxiety, but I’ve been feeling insanely lonely the last 48 hours. And I haven’t really been alone either. I had friends over for dinner (stir fry veggies and chicken in curry sauce with rice) on Tuesday, went into the office two days this week, had an unexpected work lunch yesterday, met some new people, went to yoga with my friend after work, watched Wanda last night, which I loved..

Tomorrow I’m getting my bangs trimmed and baking a cake for my friend’s house warming party on Saturday. I still have about 3 cups of cherries left over from michigan, which feels like a shortage. I think I possibly got myself addicted to them on some level after walking through the cherry orchards last week and diligently alternating between picking fruit and eating it. cherries are a good source of magnesium which has a calming effect I guess, my sisters therapist would always tell her to drink cherry juice if she was anxious before bed.

I’m going to try to make an upside down sweet cherry cake, I don’t know how it will turn out since it’s a new recipe but I’m hoping it will be spongey. If it is spongey enough I’ll cut it in half and add a layer of cream cheese frosting and black current jam that my mom and cousin made, and top it with lemon whipped cream.

I think my mom and aunt and cousin will come to the city on Saturday during the day, I’m going to find us tickets for an architecture boat tour or maybe instead we can go to art museum depending on the weather and how early they get here. because of the unexpected lunch yesterday the sandwich I made with love came back home with me last night (with love) I’m looking forward to eating it for an early lunch around 11, and I love an early lunch. I feel better realizing I have things to look forward to, be it a sandwich or a cake or a party

Headcanons and a short fanfic for Kureishi Misuyo🦴

Art by Mito-Amatsu

He goes ice skating 3 to 4 times a week because he enjoys it so much. He loves watching figure skating too.

He is really good at cooking especially curry and rice.

He dates a lot of people and Cosmo tells him he needs to stop acting like he’s a spring chicken and get married already 🤣🤣🤣

He hates caffeinated drinks and it makes him feel sick.

A day out shopping…

Kureishi had a lazy start to his Sunday as he woke up later than usual and went to check his fridge so he could make some breakfast, he gasped at the sight of it being so empty.

“…well damn…and I’m making dinner for the boys tonight…”, he said with a sigh, “….alright, time to go shopping”. He’d quickly shower and grab some breakfast on the go before heading to the supermarket.

He’d try a different supermarket that was having some sweet deal and he couldn’t pass up on that.

He had got all his supplies for the week before passing the bakery, “…oh I’m sure the boys would want something sweet…Adam got us in the habit of having dessert after dinner ever since he joined us”, he said with a little chuckle as he looked at the desserts. He wasn’t much of a sweets kind of person especially with his training and what not but he did indulge every now and then.

He looked at the various desserts and couldn’t decide, they all looked so good, “…need some help, sir?”, asked a person dressed in what seemed like a chef’s coat.

Kureishi looked up and smiled weakly, “…yes, they all look so good but I’m not sure what my students would like…they eating everything really”.

“I baked these all this morning…maybe a nice French chestnut cake…it’s light and has whipped cream…”, they said with a smile.

He was sold, that sounded so good, “…I’ll take one French chestnut cake then…”, he said with a smile.

The baker smiled and nodded before boxing up the cake, “…so you been working here a long time?”, Kureishi asked gently as he waited.

“No, I just moved here recently, I own my own bakery just down the street but I also supply this supermarket…”, they said with a smile as they handed in the box, “…I’m Y/N by the way”.

“That’s so cool, I’ll pop by your bakery soon…I’m Kureishi Mitsuyo…I’m a chiropractor not too far from here”, he said gently.

“Oh I’ve heard about you…only good things”, Y/N said with a smile.

He chuckled in response, “…that’s good to hear! I try my best! And if you ever need a chiropractor, come on by “.

“I shall, I hope you enjoy the cake!”, Y/N said with a smile as Kureishi smiled and nodded before heading off with his groceries to check out.

Dinner was a hit with the boys, “…I got some cake from the local supermarket…the baker own that shop you think is cute, Cosmo”, Kureishi said as he brought the cake out for them.

“Oh yeah! I went there a few times…they’re really good”, Cosmo said as Adam cut them some cake.

“The owner is pretty cute, don’t you think, master?”, Adam asked teasingly.

“The baker? I mean yeah but I didn’t want to hit on them since they were pretty nice and all”, Kureishi said with a little blush.

“Can it, Adam…he needs to get married already! He literally has so many people that he’s just ‘dating’. The baker is really nice…maybe even too good for him”, Cosmo said with a giggle as he ate some cake.

“Yeah you’re right, Cos…”, Adam laughed as he tucked into his piece of cake.

“I’m gonna kick both of your asses…eat your damn cake and shut up”, Kureishi said with a pout but deep down he knew they were right. It was about time he did settle down and maybe even have a few kids. He wasn’t getting any younger that’s for sure.

Maybe he’ll pay the baker a visit later that week to tell them how much the boys liked the cake…and ask them out on a date.

Hihi I saw your post about looking for ideas!!! <3 what about a late night dinner date with Barbatos ? :)

summary: romantic date night with your boyfriend

notes: i hope you like this!! i got carried away and istg there was steam from my fingers LMAO. requests are open!

it was late at night, it had to be. barbatos’ demanding job as future demon lords butler was extremely hard for him to get free time. though when he did, he wanted it to be spent with you. while barbatos was rushing to get ready for your date at Ristorante Six, you were already on your way, getting a ride curtesy of lucifer. once you arrived you got seated immediately, ‘barbatos must of already booked us in..’ you thought. you sat down at the two chaired table, looking around while you waited on your boyfriend

barbatos arrived roughly 10 minutes after you, once he sat down across from you, he apologised. “oh MC.. my dearest apologies.. i had quite a few things to set up before leaving, i hope you understand” you smiled, “of course i do, you don’t have to apologise!” “ah but i do, i don’t want to leave you waiting” he gave you a small smile. you loved his smiles, they were always so genuine.

after a few minutes of small talk a waiter arrived at your tables, “i’ll take a Hellfire Curry Rice please?” barbatos asked, you just ordered a roasted roc, it reminded you of roast chicken back home. once the waiter left another came by and left a bottle of demonus. barbatos didn’t say anything, but you could tell by the way he was looking at you right now that he was trying to talk to you with his eyes. they looked almost pure? as pure as a demons eyes can get. you couldn’t help but smile at him

eventually the food arrived and the two of you ate, though the food was good, you knew it would be even better if barbatos cooked it himself. you used your fork to grab some of barbatos’ curry, he furrowed his eyebrows at you, confused, before he gave you a chuckle. you took a bite of his curry, “woah! thats really good!” barbatos nodded, “if you like, i can make it for you sometime, my dear?” oh how you melted at his nicknames

once you both had finished, you decided against dessert, opting for a sweet treat at the demons lord castle, where the two of you would make it together. when you both arrived at diavolos castle, you excitedly walked to the kitchen, barbatos following in suit with eyes full of admiration for you. you were already buzzing at the thought of what barbatos was going to make you, he decided for a human world eclair. while making it barbatos stood behind you, holding tour hands and guiding your hands while making the eclairs, you couldn’t really focus, only thinking about how close the two of you were right now

while you finished your baking, barbatos was now cleaning up some of the dishes. once that was all done, the two of you went to barbatos’ room with the eclairs. barbatos wasn’t much of a talker, but once you both bake together, its almost like he can never shut up about recipes, you don’t mind though, listening to your boyfriend talk about his interests while eating his delicious food was a beautiful night
