using up what's left



mushroom kamameshi, teriyaki pork



jyaga ninjin, baby bok choy, veggie gyoza, gyoza sauce




the kamameshi is leftover from tuesday. the pork is half of the country style ribs package. i cut some pieces into medallions on tuesday, and froze them for 2day's use. the teriyaki is shmantz's recipe. equal parts shoyu and sugar with ginger and garlic. i marinated the pork and some leftover mushrooms for 30 minutes, patted them dry, then pan fried it. i sprinkled on the sesame seeds at the end so they wouldn't burn during frying.

the jyaga ninjin wuz kinda like nishime long rice. i don't know what i wuz doing, but shmantz said it wuz delicious. i used the small potato in this recipe, and what wuz left of the carrot. the baby bok choy wuz lightly salted and blanched, and the veggie gyoza wuz fried in sesame oil to give it a nice taste.

again, this wuz enuf food for lunch and dinner. shmantz had issues eating the rice with his "slippery hashi". he came home with almost all the rice, one medallion, one gyoza and half the jyaga ninjin. next time, i think i'll make onigiri so it's easier to eat. or pack him a ramen spoon. who got the small ones? maybe you should send those to shmantz! the plastic ones, not the hello kitty ones...

I like that your archives are moldy bento! But I hope that none of schmantz's bento gets moldy in real life!!

We have no little ramen spoons... maybe you can get him those fork/spoon sets in a little case... hahaha.

syko, maybe i can do a guest appearance bento when i visit! i'm sure yours looks fine cuz you gots the cutesy bentobako! ross says, "y-o-u-r is your. y-o-u apostrophe r-e is you are."

wow! "the veggie gyoza has more calories, fat and sodium than the meatz gyoza" - just goes to show, vegetarian not always the healthy!
