… Spicy Vegetable Noodle Broth
It’s Christmas. Tomorrow Christmas cooking begins in earnest. Today was about doing the food shopping … most of it anyway … tomorrow and thereafter is about the cooking.
This is one of those dishes that look beautiful. I’m not sure why this is one of the very last meals I’ve cooked. But it’s a good one. A really good one.
There is a fair bit to do – making a broth – a paste to flavour the broth and the seafood as well as cooking the sea food. The squid takes a bit of prepping what with removing the tentacles, slicing the body (is it actually called the body?) and scoring the crisscross pattern into the squid. There is quite a bit of stuff to go in to the broth as well.
All in all I’m pretty amazed that you can make a meal like this in just over sixteen minutes. But what’s more amazing is that it tastes absolutely amazing.
You really must cook this one. You must.
