Lunch with sis and a little bit of heart to heart

On a not so busy Wednesday afternoon after passing my learners test (I had to re-write it because my learner expired again, Bleh!) *happy cheesy smile* 

I decided it would be great to go out for lunch with my beloved sis-ta. So we headed to Primi Piatti in Rosebank to celebrate and indulge in some good 'ol' comfort food.

I needed some serious food in my belly after a rough night with Roxanne and Michelle as well,It was a wonderful night and I was glad to see Roxanne after nearly three years. Roxanne actually moved to the UK and so she was here to visit, what other way can one celebrate such an occasion? Well with plenty of vodka and rock music. 

I say nothing in this world beats a Pizza and Orange juice to perk ya up!

I might have gone a little chili crazy though but I really love chili so much I couldn't resist! 

Towards the end of the day I had come to the conclusion that Nolo was at war with her pasta in some way and I should keep her away for pasta in the future... just look at that!

Before heading home we decided to make a quick stop at Wolves Cafe for their AWESOME Red Velvet cup cakes Yum!

I reckon this was a a day well spent :)

I can so take the heat

What is the best thing to do when you are feeling down and cold.......COOK!

I don’t really have a fancy name for this dish at all so I am going keep it nice and simple.

Curry Prawn with Sweet Peanut Sauce

Prawns

Potatoes (you can have it with rice or pasta but the potato goes really well)

Parsley

Onions

Curry Power (mild)

Fresh Cream

Olive Oil

Garlic

Black Pepper & Salt to taste

Syrup (maple or golden)

Peanut Butter

Flour

Prep:

Heat the Olive Oil to sauté the finely chopped Onions and Curry, Then add the Prawns together with the crushed Garlic. 

Remember to keep an eye on the prawn as not over cook them, 10 min should be enough because after adding some finely chopped parsley put the pan back onto the stove for another 5 min.

For the Prawn sauce:

Mix a little bit of flour with the fresh cream (this serves as a thickening agent) and then add the mixture into the pan. Place the pan back onto the stove for another 5 min.

Sweet Peanut Sauce:

Heat the syrup in a little pan and add half a teaspoon of peanut butter. Then stir until everything is mixed.

That is it! 

I served mine with a backed Potato and it is DELICIOUS!!!
