NOODLE STIRFRY

So my Mum sent me this text message from Luzern, Switzerland...

"Hi, thanks 4 the call, I am sitting in the sun looking across the lake at the old town and Pilatus with snow on it. Absolutely gorgeous. Love Mum"

and i responded...

"Lucky you! I'm cooking stir fry, watching home and away, with melbourne in the background! Barely comparable. Enjoy and speak soon. xo"

YELLOW FIN TUNA NICOISE

My Mum makes a mean Salade Niçoise, and it's a bit of a favourite.

On Sunday night, Momz had a new take on her usual niçoise, with Yellow Fin Tuna, seared briefly so it's just sealed, very rare and melts in your mouth. Sittin' on a bed of baby cos and rocket, potato, hard-boiled egg, green beans, asparagus, homemade sundried tomatoes, spanish onion, olives, and a soy mayonnaise-balsamic vinegar-flaxseed oil dressing.



Unfortunately there wont be much of Ma's cooking round here for a while - she's off to France for a three month stint... So this spoilt bitch better get ready to chuck on the apron and hit the kitchen!
