FollowIt was a last minute preparation, with only half an hour for the marinate sauces to seep into the chicken boxing. My bad.
I find that I am so much lazier during school holidays and so much more efficient on school-going days. I find that when I sleep in an additional of 2 hours a day, my days are SO much shorter and I get so little work done! Well, I can’t have the best of both worlds. If I get ample sleep, I lose out on time for accomplishing tasks. Money can wait. Work can wait. But our health can’t wait. My body is screaming for 7-8 hours of sleep each day for it to repair and to perform optimally. I can only repay all my sleep debts during school holidays. If only God could give us an extra of 2 hours a day, that’ll be awesome!! 🙂
So back to my home-cooked dinner yesterday. It was a dinner executed in under an hour.
Below: Pan-fried red snapper fish coated with coriander powder. Coating a fish with flour / powder reduces oil splatters. Once fish is fried, I fried some minced garlic and drizzled some soy sauce on the pan with the leftover oil. Pour sauce onto fish.
Below: Chicken Boxing marinated with soy sauce, cracked black pepper and palm sugar syrup. This is super yummy and the girls can never get enough of grilled chicken boxing.
Below: Organic broccoli blanched with oil and sea salt. Sweet corn steamed together with rice in rice cooker.
Cost of dinner = below RM40 and to me, it’s considered a budget dinner for four.
How much does your dinner cost per person? Times are bad. I’m striving to learn how to cook more budget meals 😉
