If you live in a culinary desert 🏜️

You need to take up cooking again πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ


While the experiment of going through cool books with the kids turned out to be less than successful, doing it solo turned out better results - for my wife and me (the kids refrained).

The dish is called Mongolian tenderloin. One needs to work with locally available ingredients and eating horse meat is frowned upon here πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

The recipe is simple - prepare rice to have ready for when you’re done with the meat. As for the latter, cut the tenderloin into half inch sized cubes, coat with a thin layer of cornstarch, fry to almost done and remove and let rest for a moment. Use the same skillet to add ginger and garlic, fry for half a minute, add soy sauce, brown sugar and some water and bring to a simmer. Add in the pork and wait for the sauce to thicken. Voila!

For the full Mongolian experience put something from β€˜The Hu’ (if you’re into Mongolian music the must have) on the stereo and enjoy the meal πŸ₯˜πŸ˜‹ Or if you like your Mongolian music not to remind you of a horse sortie M-Pop is a suitable, milder alternative (Wasabies for instance) πŸ˜πŸ‡²πŸ‡³

my wife also makes it, with sticky rice made to perfection (don't underestimate the quality of rice and prep). Very yum! Needs to be mated with something bold to drink imho. Well played, sir

That looks so delicious!

So I can't take all the credit, but worried too many chefs might spoil the broth hahaha, do you like Kimchi Omelets or Pancakes?

Looks really tasty!

I have a book of 6000 Mongolian proverbs given by a friend who did her dissertation on them
