Cooking

Believe it or not, I cooked tonight. If you know me, then you know I don't usually do this much--although I am trying to do so more. I must say, having a chef for a husband is a wonderful thing (I highly recommend you find yourself one.) and something that makes a wife a very spoilt woman--that is, when he is actually not at work, and in your own kitchen cooking for you.

I must also add, that even though I am deemed "a chef's worst nightmare," because I am a vegetarian who--more often than not--eats vegan, I am beyond fortunate to have a chef husband who is incredibly skilled at preparing vegetarian and vegan meals that are simply amazing! I'm talking of meals that are not just pasta and some veg. He does delicious things with Quorn™ , like mock General Tso and fajitas. Those are just two of my favourite meals, and they don't even scratch the surface of Matthew's cooking prowess--with or without Quorn™. You name it, and he can make it for you vegetarian or vegan style (or carnivore style)--and the taste is phenomenal!

However, we are talking about my having cooked tonight. Melissa, the novice. The baker. The one that Matthew says he wouldn't want in his brigade because I am too bloody slow. It might have taken some time, but I made Pav Bhaji tonight. I found the recipe by way of Ellybeth's flickr site, and it is indeed "awesome." I forgot to put the fresh cilantro on it though. Oops! Well, since Matthew's home tomorrow, maybe he can make something for tea with it? ;-)
