Re: Weekly meals plan
Do either of you have an easily posted recipe for the mushroom orzo soup?

Re: Weekly meals plan
This is the aubergine and it was so, so nice. We had it this evening. https://biancazapatka.com/en/chinese-eg ... lic-sauce/Hazey_Jane wrote: ↑Tue Jan 21, 2025 5:39 pm Could I please have the recipe for that? It sounds amazing
I'm trying to remember what I did with the peanut sauce as I made that a few days ago.
It had peanut butter, rice vinegar, gochuchang, lime, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and I think that was all I added althugh it looks like it might need something sweet so I could've poured a bit of mirin or honey in. I basically whisked it all together, to taste. Today I stirred it into crisp shredded white cabbage, carrot and then mixed it all with the really thin rice noodles. It was all a bit store cupboard-y really but really tasty.
