Kitchen surprise: summer rolls

[missdiane]

I have some decent stock in the house this week, clearly
 
Not pictured - one carrot because I decided it needed more veggies, a little sesame oil and soy sauce
Recipe
Chop your veggies to no longer than about 4 inches, otherwise you won’t be able to fold the edges in properly
I used half of the smoked salmon filet and flaked it and mixed it with the wasabi and regular mayo and a little sesame oil and soy sauce so I didn't have to bother with a dipping sauce
Next, take your sheets of rice paper and soak them one at a time in medium-hot water for about 10 seconds to soften them a bit, add your ingredients (not too much) and roll them into tight burrito-like rolls

One of them has some Everything But the Bagel seasoning because I didn't have as much of the salmon left. I have another half of the salmon to use tomorrow. I don't think I'll use the wasabi mayo because the smoke is pretty pronounced

Kitchen Surprise: Not-really-Coronation Not-Chicken

[hilarita]

This feels like a bit of a cheat, because we had a grocery delivery at the weekend. But I did not have to leave the house to make this! Also, it bears only the loosest possible relationship with Coronation Chicken, but at least it's much easier, because it doesn't start with Now Poach Your Chicken.

Ingredients:
380g Turkey steaks
1 red onion
quite a lot of mushrooms
sugar snap peas
red and yellow peppers
tin of apricots in juice
sultanas
cashew nuts
creme fraiche
tikka masala curry paste
pasta
slightly olive oil

Equipment:
2 saucepans
a hob

Method:
Measure out your pasta into a saucepan. Pour the juice from your tinned apricots on them.
Put some oil and a bit of masala paste into a saucepan.
Chop your onion, put it in the saucepan and start it frying.
Mushrooms! Chop and add your mushrooms!
Chop and add your turkey! Remember to stir things!
You should probably start your pasta around now.

Top, tail, destringify your sugar snap peas. Add them to the pan.
De-seed and chop your peppers. Yep, add them in!
Slice your apricots a bit (I wave a knife around in the tin; it seems to work), and add them to the pan.
Add cashew nuts and sultanas to taste.
At this point, there's probably around 3-4 minutes of pasta time left. If not, wait until this statement is true.
Add another helping of masala paste until it's as hot as you like.
Add the creme fraiche. Stir well.

Serve pasta. Plonk sauce on top. Enjoy your not-coronation not-chicken.
