I can't cook: I actually cooked
hiii
Right, I've actually cooked a proper meal. One that needed chopping boards and bowls for ingredients and everything. I've been craving a Chinese for ages and haven't yet found a decent one near my flat so I decided that for my first proper post I'd make something Chinese-inspired; cashew chicken stir fry. Promise it's nicer than it sounds! Incase anybody fancies having a nosy at the recipe, here's the link here.
In my first post when I said I genuinely don't cook, I actually wasn't being dramatic for a change. 6 weeks after moving in, my chopping boards, pyrex jug and wee wooden spatula thing still have the labels on...
This recipe is so easy, even I managed to follow it with no issues. Basically, cut and cook your chicken, cut your veg, mix up your sauce and fling it all in a frying pan. I changed a few things; used tender stem broccoli instead of normal stuff because I'm fancy and added the cornflour in at the end because I forgot about it. These things happen. One thing I realised whilst making this though is that my portion control is rubbish; my portion of rice could easily have fed 3 folk. Ate it all myself, no regrets xxx (see massive bowl of rice below if you want to be impressed)
I probably should include an actual pic of the meal considering that is the whole point of this blog... Obviously it wasn't anywhere near as good as a proper Chinese but it was a decent substitute, 8/10.
Big thank you if you've read this!! I'll make something more exciting next time for my loyal readers. Plz like and share xxx

here's another bonus pic of my dog, looking more photogenic than I will ever be:
