Yesterday was fun. It was serious fun. Not that laugh out loud type, but a great day. Why? It started with a video posted by a friend (YouTube nee Facebook)
And the conversations that ensued.
Trying something new:
Recipe:
2 palm sized sirloin steaks
6 mini potato things
6 stalks of asparagus, cut in to half. Not the long way, that'd be difficult.
1 handful of snow peas
2 hands full of fresh spinich
1 red pepper. sliced and diced
5 stalks of long beans, cut in to 2 inch pieces
10 slices of cucumbers, halved
Other random veggies in your fridge.
Head of Iceberg Lettuce
Tools:
Wok
Bamboo Steamer
Procedure:
Fill Wok with water. heat water. Place Bamboo Steamer on top of wok.
1. Take the 2 palm sized sirloin steaks and apply steak rub, pepper, or whatever you have that you general like to put on your steak before cooking. Rub that stuff in to it. Or not. Your call. Place your seasoned (or unseasoned) steaks on to pieces of Iceberg lettuce and, in turn, place those in to the steamer. The order is not important. You can put the lettuce in the steamer. the steak on the lettuce. So long as the order is Stove. Wok. Steamer. Lettuce. Steak. You're good. So as to save time, you'll pretty much follow this steamer to leafy green formula through out the recipe.
2. Quarter the mini spuds. Place mini spuds on lettuce next to steak. Butter them. Parsley them. Garlic them.
3. Place second level of steamer on the first level. Make a bed of spinich. add all the other veggies.
4. Steam process should be about 20 minutes (from the time you put the steak down). But adjust to your taste.
5. Serve. Add some type of light balsamic vinegerette type of dressing to the assorted veggies.
6. Eat.

Every now and then, we all get the urge to try something new, to boldly go where we've never gone before. It's your turn to have that urge right now. Your sign is nothing if not action-oriented, a fact that's not immediately obvious because of the charming way you go about taking those actions. Right now, though, you'll be willing to pull out all the stops to have some fun -- some serious, unusual fun -- and you won't care who sees you get the ball rolling.
