清炒佛手瓜丝

买了生平的第二颗佛手瓜
本来要用来煲汤的
回家一趟~ 老妈子sponsor了好多煲汤的材料
这颗可怜的瓜只好靠边站
上网查了其他的煮法
可以切丝拌炒
找来了胡萝卜丝和黑木耳丝
大家伴一伴~ 就成了一道可口料理
瓜瓜很清甜

那晚全是蔬菜 - 包括那煲汤
真是苦了我这个重口味动物……

凉拌芒果+青瓜+寒天丝

冰箱里有那天用剩的小黄瓜、家里种的苹果芒、买了不知干嘛的酸柑
泡了一些燕菜丝(寒天)拌了些开胃酱汁
就有一盘即健康又开胃的小吃了!
味道有点像rojak~ 但是很清爽~
每一种材料都会散发出它们各自的味道和口感
谁也不会覆盖谁
酸甜咸辣~ 小黄瓜,芒果,酸柑的香味
会在你的味蕾上演奏着美妙的交响乐

把小黄瓜、芒果、燕菜丝切好 放在深碗里备用
酱汁:酱油,糖,香油,酸柑汁,辣椒粉,芝麻
suma放在一起拌一拌~ 摆盘(可省略)就可以开动了
超简单的

这是我第一次‘生吃’燕菜丝~ 呵!
从小就被灌输这种食材是用来煮菜燕的
把它切小段 泡水至透明状就可以了
别泡太久 会软软没有口感的哦
this make a very good appertizer or snack in between meals
full of fiber n vitamin C ^^
