I very much didn't.
My toilet can vouch that every single drop off hot, chilli-infused oil made its way through my entire digestive system.
Chinese food in Japan.
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.

Cabbage Fried Rice
This recipe for cabbage fried rice is a great way to make a batch of fried rice using more cabbage than leftover rice. You only need to prepare a few ingredients; this side dish will be on your table in about 30 minutes.
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.

Japanese-Style Cabbage Salad
This Japanese-style cabbage salad is a healthy slaw with green onion and almonds tossed in a sweet dressing of sesame oil, rice vinegar, and ginger.
Have you ever tried doing that? If not, I recommend it!

In other news, it's that time of the year again in Japan when they release fruit-flavoured crisps!
