Sesame chicken and not-so-udon noodles
Today I decided to brave the cooker again and go on another culinary adventure using a recipe I found for sesame chicken and udon noodles. For one thing I didn't have any Chinese leaf, which sucked because I used to love it as a kid. So I had to swap that for regular lettuce. I also couldn't find any udon noodles, which is probably because I didn't venture far enough into china town, or even into the area at all so the noodles became regular egg noodles. The recipe came out rather nicely, i even put in effort enough to toast some sesame seeds. It's sort of minimal effort for a nice presentation too, just pile everything in according to the recipe. It took a little longer than it said on the recipe to make, but that's probably just because I'm not the greatest or most practised cook in the world, and maybe something to do with the fact that I kept having to check and re-check the recipe to see if I was doing it right.
It was nice, the chicken seemed a little unhealthy as it was fried and the peanut rich sauce was amazing but tasted like it had evil amount of calories (high calories = yum) but this was all balanced out by the healthy veggie salad. Mmm!
