Ha-ha.
Yeah, you sneaky fookin' prawns, heh?
-Wikus
(Sharlto Copley) referring to the prawn-like aliens who have taken up
residence in his home town in District 9 (2009).
The
first one-pan dish in the Hairy Dieters cookbook is Prawn and Chive
Omlette. I used real prawns from Tesco's fish counter, as opposed to
fictional aliens.
This
was a pretty simple meal to start off with, so kudos to the authors /
editors for putting this at the beginning of the section.
I
made a few errors due to my ridiculous memory- I listed out
everything I needed, but not the quantities. So, at the fish counter
in Tesco, I guessed at about 80g of prawns. The recipe lists 100g.
Also, the instructions end with “serve with salad”. There was no
mention of salad in the ingredients. I tend not to think outside the
box when it comes to cooking- I just do what it says so I don't get
it wrong. I didn't have any salad in at that point. Oh well!
It
was nice though, and I surprised myself again with what I achieved.
It wasn't that difficult at all. Small steps.
