J bento

Ritz pork chops, mini spaghetti, and last nights salad mixed with rice

Dad keeps saying grandpa used to make pork chops with unsweetened marie biscuit crumbs,
while i cant find marie biscuit crumbs, i decided to use ritz crackers instead since they are not sweet. I think it turned out =)
a bit like cereal prawns isnt it?
Todays dinner was a bit different from the past few days
Baked snapper with topped with garlic sauteed mushrooms, celery puree, chevre chaud (warm goat cheese) with walnuts and carrot sticks, salad with parma ham

These shimeji and eringi mushrooms were hand picked by moi! =)
they were still in their pots, and i got a chance to pick them out. haha it was fun ~


this celery puree is a bit different from the one we tasted in Paris cos i cant find celery root so i used the celery head plus the whole bunch of leaves, and i didnt have enough potatoes, hence the very green puree, but it was nice.

Usually, celery root puree is made using blanched celery root, potatoes pureed into a paste and mixed with butter and milk, and paired with meat dishes like how we enjoy mashed potatoes with roast chicken or beef, but this is less rich than the usual mash and i really loved it at the first taste. hmm... i wonder where can i get celery root...
