Uneventful weekend. I did end up putting the XBox back on the shelf. And cleaning my apartment. Packaging up the first order from Limewear. Doing some general business stuff. Had a meeting about GTDB.
It was pretty relaxing.
My laundry is threatening to take over my bedroom...but I am the master of my domain! At some point I'm going to need to do my laundry.
Right now, I'm just being me. I'm enjoying myself.
Glenn's recipe for Sesame Garlic Shrimp, which I made for dinner last night.
3/4 pound shell-on shrimp, 1 scallion, 3 cloves garlic, 2 carrots, 3 ribs of celery, dash of fresh chili pepper, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/2 tsp Togarashi (get it at www.worldspice.com, or use cayenne,) 2 tablespoons sesame oil, oil to coat a wok.
Prep: Mince the garlic, scallion, chili pepper. Set aside. Designate:Aromatics.
Prep: Slice the celery on a diagonal into 1/4" slices. Shred the carrot into fine 1" long shreds. Set aside. Designate: Vegetables.
Prep: Shell the shrimp, place in a bowl. Rinse briefly in cold running water. Add soy sauce and togarashi (or cayenne.) Toss with a wooden spoon until coated evenly. Designate :Yummy Shrimp.
Cooking: Heat regular oil in a wok to coat, until oil barely smokes. Add Aromatics and stir fry briefly until chili flakes start to brown. Add Vegetables, and stir fry for about 2 minutes, or until vegetables become translucent. Add Yummy Shrimp, making sure that all the liquid in the bowl ends up in the wok. Stir fry for about 1.5-2 minutes, until the shrimp is just undercooked. Add sesame oil and stir for 15 seconds, coating evenly. Push all ingredients into the center of the wok, cover, and steam for 30 seconds more. Remove from heat, and stir for 30 more seconds.
Serve over white rice.
Yummy. Wish I had some now.
