Ristorante de Munro
Ladies and gentlemen. welcome to Ristorante de Munro. located in the quiet suburb of St Lucia, Brisbane. today, Chef Louie (sounds like Italian name hor..) will be showing you how to cook, Pasta de lamb chops with truss tomato.
ok ok, let's be serious. actually i just wanna show my mum that:
1. i can cook my own dinner.
2. what i cook for my dinner.
3. that i'm not starving myself just because i can slim down or look slim.
firstly, the condiments. as you can see, we need mint sauce(also know as mint vinegar), a bottle of simple marinade spice, sesame oil and plum sauce.
next, ORGANIC pasta of your choice.
thaw the lamb forequarter chops prior to marination. lamb forequarter chops are chosen because of the high fat content as you can see in the picture, those thick white strips. when you bake it in the oven, fats will just melt and oooooze out as an oily puddle. marvellous.
ok, using the condiments above, add your own 'agaration' or desired amount to the lamb chops and leave for an hour to marinate.
next, we have feta cheese, greek. feta (typical) nutritional value per 100 g (3.5 oz), Carbohydrates 4g, Fat 21g and Protein 14g. slice and dice. use as much as you want.
2 eggs. beaten.
boil water.
add pasta when water is boiled. add salt just like all good recipes recommend, if you do not want your pasta to stick together.
place marinated lamb chops in baking tin and top with diced truss tomatoes. bake 150 degree celsius for about 30 mins. longer if your chops are thicker or larger; or if you want it to be more burnt.
once the pasta is cooked to your liking, drain away the water and throw in the diced/crumbed feta cheese for a few quick stirs. and then add pasta+feta into the bowl of beaten eggs. mix well. add pepper to taste. after the lamb chops are cooked, place on pasta. drizzle remaining oil/sauce onto pasta. serve.
voila!!
the verdict: with bright lighting, camera and snazzy close up shots, any tommy, dicky or harry can produce such great photos to make the food look professional and appealing to the taste buds. just as long as you do not let anyone taste it, no one will ever know if it's good or bad.
all right. that ends the high fat dinner i usually have. thanks for being such good audience. for those who expects, demands and wants me to cook for them when i go back. DREAM ON.
for those who knows Louie and are interested to know how he keeps his 'fit, slim and shapely' figure, please read on... ladies, please ready your pen and paper. here comes the best kept secret!
Unveiling..... Greeeeeeen Tea!
mix one teaspoon of tea leaves into 500-750ml of boiled water. drink EVERYDAY.
if it doesn't work for you, go home and blame your parents for lousy genes.
