humbly, Roasted Cabbage. 🪶📜

Crunch. Crunch. Crunch. 

The humble cabbage 🥬 is elevated roasted style.

A perfect pair for body-building proteins in steak or fried form.


For this first 2 tries:  i sauted it, i conquered.  Then i toasted it, conquered even more 😜


📝 Steps: 

Wash cabbage & drain well.

1. Slice into wedges, about 3/4 inch, abd keeping the core intact so it does not fall apart. 

2. Preheat toaster / oven to 200°C for 5mins.

... while oven is prepping, continue below:

3. Place into a mixing bowl, sprinkle some olive oil, dash of salt & pepper, and preferred spices.

(We added chili flakes, smoked paprika, and oregano. Make it complement the main dish. )

4. Line the oven tray with baking paper, and gently place the wedges. 

5. Toast for 15minutes on each side.


Verdict:

- toasted version for the win! 

- mind tho, if not toasted enough, cabbage wedges get a bit chewy in the thicker parts. If time is of no issue, then toast longer. 

But you may consider jullienne & then toast for uniform texture and better bite, faster serving.

Tip: for version #2, to be or not to be... to toast, to air fry, or to bake in the oven?

how i met Nancy Drew

It was my sister who introduced me to Nancy Drew and her posse, Bess and George. Back in 4th grade, from a book she brought home from the school library.  Erm, at least that's how I remember it. One Nancy Drew thing stands out in my memory though. The title "The Secret of the Old Clock".  I vividly remember how the book looked, hard-bound, yellow spine, thick pages. The picture in the front cover showed Nancy, alone, crouched on the grass in the quiet woods at night, opening that old clock and looking so, well, so secretive about it!  I recall how i felt then, seeing that picture, there is a thrill, like you were on the verge of discovery of a very precious secret!   Thus, i got hooked in a much enjoyable way.  I had graduated from fairy tales, fables and legends and had moved into mystery. It was one mystery solved after another! A different kind of adventure! How about you?  Were you, or are you an avid Nancy Drew fan? What was your 1st mys...
