Tuesday's dinner, which was supposed to be Monday's, (are you still with me?) a quick and easy Beef (and Fake Beef) Satay.
Strips of beef (or Morningstar Farms Meal Starters) marinated in brown sugar, soy sauce and ginger, then quickly cooked in the oven. Served with sauce.
Not bad. As Matt said, it may not be purely authentic, but if we were somewhere on the Malay Peninsula, we probably wouldn't have gotten kicked off.
To go with, we served a big bowl of rice, and Breaded and Fried Tofu.
Chunks of tofu dreged in flour, egg and then panko, and fried till golden. Very nice. And quite filling!
Simple meal, and once the beef (and fake beef) had marinated, and the tofu was pressed? Came together in fifteen or twenty minutes.

- Beef & Ginger Stir Fry
I know, I know. We've been on a real Asian/stir fry/Donna Hay kick. But, we love the flavors, the ease, and of course Donna! This recipe was yet another quick one: grated ginger & garlic go into a sizzling hot skillet, followed by the beef (or Morningstar...

Grilled Flank Steak Sandwiches; something Matt's been looking forward to. Flank steak (or Morningstar Farms Meal Starters, faux beef) marinated overnight in Dijon mustard and red wine. Next day, pat dry the steak, grill about fifteen minutes. Let...
