Doesn't look like much, but I liked it. Had a bunch of ingredients that needed to get used. Found this cabbage recipe using the Supercook app (in the left side of the bowl). I had way more cabbage than I thought, so I ended up multiplying the recipe by 5 and baking it in a large pan. Took longer and covered it in foil for the last 10mins or so. The cabbage still has some crispness and isn't mushy, which I prefer.

The right hand side is stir fried leftover rice with chopped tomatoes, onions, and teriyaki flavored Spam. Sauteed it in the same frying pan I used to toast the cabbage. Pretty good together, also used some furikake on top. Wasn't meaty enough for TMM though, so he's eating other stuff XD

Nice! It reminds me of cooking in Japan with leftovers! Usually in Japan, we just stirfry the cabbage with the rice or noodles, without boiling it. That way, the cabbage stays mainly crisper then if we boiled it first.


Another thing we do is just chop up the raw cabbage into thin slices/strips, mix it with other salad veggies and pop some (oriental) or soy dressing in it.


Have you ever tried doing that? If not, I recommend it!

Tried making Salteñas. This is a fave food of my dad's. There's a bakery here that has really good ones, and I wanted to try it so I could make it when I visit my folks.
It wasn't too hard, just time consuming and messy. Following some of the comments, I mixed in the gelatin with the beef mixture and let it cool overnight. Also mixed the paprika with the dough to give it color. They taste good, but they weren't nearly as juicy as they're supposed to be. Also didn't bother making nice pleats to seal them, since this was just a test. We have so much filling leftover, we're going to make a pie out of later.

If I try this again, I won't drain the meat and use maybe half of the filling ingredients.

Ahh, a Hispanic take on the British pasty!
