Best Eggs Benedict

Just a quick one.

Having recently had breakfast with my mum at Frankie and Bennys, I have to say, they do the best Eggs Benedict I've ever had.




Awesome!!

Take out, made in.

I'm a total sucker for take out food.
I always tell myself it's been ages since I had it, I can afford it, I deserve a treat...or any other excuse I can think of!

Having had a day when I wanted take out, but couldn't afford it, I had to improvise.

Having got a couple of reduced chicken breasts, I decided on chicken fried rice.

It's the simplest recipe, or mine is, I don't know how other people make it!

I fried up some sliced chicken, onions and mushrooms in garlic, ginger, sesame oil, Chinese 5 spice and soy sauce. In the meantime I had the rice steamer cooking up some plain White rice.

When that was almost cooked I chucked in a handful of frozen peas.

Then I tipped all that out into a bowl, and scrambled an egg in the wok. Next I piled in the drained rice with some more sesame oil.

While that was frying I fried some big chunky onions and made a curry sauce using a curry paste





While the curried onions reduced down, I put the chicken and veg mix back into the fried rice, seasoned with soy sauce and lots if black pepper, then warmed through.

I dished up with the curry as a side.





Very tasty with the rice.






A nice cheap meal, which felt like a good treat.

Fantastic!

Goodnoms at Wudon

After my last soap making class, and a couple of well earned pints in the Belle on Great Western Road, Mr.F and I decided to venture into Wudon for dinner.

We have been a few times before, and have always enjoyed it. However we have been banished to the Southside of Glasgow, meaning less and less time in the West End for us.

After being seated by a very friendly member of staff, we poured over the rather tasty looking menu.

I decided on having the Original Ramen, minus the seaweed and fish ball. Not a fishy fan.

Mr.F decided to have a variety of wee plates, going for Wor Teep, Teriyaki Beef,

boiled rice and Dragon Sushi.

And my favourite, the Ga Lay Kwok





All in all, it was a fabulous meal, coming in under the £25 price mark, tasty!!




Plates almost licked clean!!!

I would highly recommend Wudon for the casual diner to the fancy meal. The staff are great, the food is outstanding and all this authentic Asian food comes with a very reasonable price tag!
