Minced Turkey

i can tell it's Friday night.. because Nic is home and his music is blasting from his room.. he's in a happy mood, i think it's because C is here.. she seems like a really nice person.. and she speaks a bit of Mandarin!!! she worked in Xi An for a year at the National Park there.. how cool is that~

Nic, C and Jo were all in the kitchen when i went in to heat up my dinner.. Nic offered me some wine but i turned it down.. Jo made muffins! so happy.. i love Jo's muffins! especially the White Chocolate ones! they are so yummy.. i dont think i've ever crave for muffins till now.. haha.. and she made tiny ones that i can finish at one go.. 5 bites and it's gone!

it's a perfect little thing..

that's one bite.. a greedy one, no doubt.. hee!

i stir-fried some minced Turkey for lunch this afternoon! i've never tried minced Turkey before.. i was afraid so i bought a lemon, just in case it didnt turn out alright.. lemon zest can come to the rescue! wahaha.. i marinated the meat with salt, pepper, Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce and lemon zest.. and stir-fried the minced meat with onions.. when the meat was about done, i added some soy sauce and viola! stir-fried minced Turkey with Onions! it was quite good really, and the meat is still tender even though i overcooked it a little.. i then boiled some pasta with a bit of salt and olive oil.. drained the water and added pesto to the pasta..

Pasta Pesto with stir-fried minced Turkey and Onions!

i shall do some research about minced Turkey.. and see what i can do with it next!
