Grocery Find

After a long search, I finally found a source for lemongrass in my new city.  I like to put it in stir fries with some fish sauce and onion and pepper, but its hard to find where I am currently living.  Yummy dishes ahead!

What other pleasures have you been enjoying this summer/winter?  Baking that is too hot for an Australian summer, breaks in the shade beside a beach, a new sport ...

Re: Grocery Find

Hmm yes it's been pretty chilly here so I am mainly obsessed with chicken soup~! When feeling industrious I'll do a roast chicken (spatchcock of course), and feeling more lazy I'll pick one up at the shops. Then I take the chicken apart and put most of it away for chicken salad and that sort of thing during the week, and I'll cook down the bones for a couple of hours while I chill out. Then I use that quick stock to make my soup, with carrots and celery and chicken and mushrooms and basically whatever vegetables lying around it's incredibly tasty and easy and nourishing for winter. Yum I think I'm gonna do that tonight....
