Omu-rice with cream sauce

Omu-rice is rice rolled inside of an omlet. We usually have fried rice with ketcup inside. As I had to cook the rice from scratch, I didn't make fried rice but put all ingredients in the pot, with the rice to cook.




Ingredients : serves 2
1 cup (160cc) rice - wash in water and drain
2 inch(5cm) carrot - mince
1/4 onion - mince
1 slice chicken - dice
1 chicken bouillone
180cc water
1 tbs oil
3 egg - stir well
a little salt and black pepper
2 cup milk
1 tsp flour



Preparation
1. Stirfry rice, carrot, onion, chicken with oil until rice gets clear color in the pot
2. Add water and bouillon and cook until water boils
3. Put lid on the pot and cook on the small heat for 10 mins.(Don't open the lid).
4. Take the pot off the stove and sit to steam for another 10 mins(Don't open the lid).
5. Put milk, salt and pepper and flour in the pot and stir well with a whisk.
6. Heat #5 until getting creamy
7. Pour half of stirred egg in the hot pan and fry thin.
8. When the egg is cooked, put some rice on the middle of the egg and slide it on the plate
9. Pour #6 on #8

Inside looks like this! Yummy!

Breakfast

I don't publish my blog often these days because I have been lazy and not cooked well. I was not going to publish today, but something nice happenned to me. One is that my favorite blogger made a recipe for me. Thank you very much, Izumi-san. I will talk about the recipe more when I make the food. Another nice thing is that a first lady of a consul general in Sao Paulo gave me an orchid in a pot. I visited the consulate general on business and told the consul and his wife that I will quit working this month and it could be a last chance to see them. Then Mrs. consul said "wait" and went into the building. After a few minutes, she was back with a pot in her arm. I was surprised. How wonderful she gave me a gift! The consul and his wife were so nice and friendly. I appriciate their kindness and this oppotunity to meet them.

This is the flower given by the first lady.

I got an unfamiliar vegetable at the market. It looked like dandelion leaves. I forgot the name in Portugues. I was told that I can have it for salad. When I got home and washed it and tasted some... bitter. I didn't think I would enjoy it for salad. So I put it in soup.

Breakfast ; dandelion leaves soup...It sill tasted bitter.

This is the vegetable..... I felt like I became a rabbit or hamster.

Dinner

I thought I should have cooked it more. I stirfried the vegetable with garlic....... still bitter. I threw it away. It is very rare for me to throw food away. I still have some of those vegetables. Do you know anyone who has rabbits or little herbivours animals which like dandelion leaves?
