Other Stuff

Can it.

posted Thursday, 20 March 2008

From time to time, I interrupt my usual liquid diet and try some of the lumpy stuff – food. I enjoy the market, selecting my goodies and chatting with the stall holders. Then I go home laden with provisions and think – what to cook?

I have the ingredients. I love cooking. But, I’m bored. I want something new!

So, I go searching on the interweb for some new recipe ideas. Have you ever undertaken such a task? Please don’t. It is an established fact that 99.99% of all recipes on the interweb are terrible. Even the edible ones..

But I reckon I found the worst.

soupChinese Tuna Casserole

Ingredients

2 cans tuna
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can evaporated milk
1 small diced onion
1 can drained bean sprouts or Chinese vegetables
1 can mushrooms
1 can chow mein noodles
slivered almonds (optional)

Directions

Drain tuna well & flake.
Mix all ingredients together in a casserole, leaving out half of the chow mein noodles.
Sprinkle remaining chow mein noodles on top of casserole.
Bake in a moderate oven (325º - 350º) approximately 1 hour.



Frankly, I'd rather starve. What kind of moron cooks canned food for an hour? Doesn't America have fresh food? Couldn't she find canned onions? 

About as Chinese as haggis! 

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh! 

(I love the idea of canned chow mein noodles! 'Chow mein' means fried noodles. So, here we have fried noodle noodles. In a can?)

It's been a long time. The next time you want to do some serious cooking check out http://www.foodnetwork.com/. I use it all the time.

So how's life in Liuzhou? I follow your blog fairly regularily and it seems not much has changed. I repatriated back to the States in early 2005, but still come to China fairly regularly, and in fact Im in Shanghai again this week.

Is XX still in LZ? You two made life there a little more interesting.

Take care
