A warming one-plate dinner

When Thursday and Friday arrive, usually the fridge is getting empty of fresh veggies, but this week since we had some guests for dinner I bought more than usual last weekend to have a wide choice of possible menu, and so there’s still a few deliciously fresh veggies wauting to be cooked. In particular it’s rate to find things different from kabocha in the pumpkin-squash family, but last week I found a beautiful butternut squash. And after all the looking delicious pictures found on IG this autumn, I was really excited to cook it. I just roasted it with yellow carrots, and made a fluffy whipped omelette (which almost tasted like a quenelle and made me think that I really should cook some!!). All in orange tones, the whole plate is served warm and with just a bit of salt and pepper on top. Have a nice Friday!

Fluffy tofu omelet

I am extremely picky on the quality of the food we eat and I find it ridiculous to want to eat absolutely meat or fish at every meals or everyday. I’m more inclined to cook a really fresh and delicious piece when I find one and skip it the rest of the time. Lot’s of people curiously worry about proteines intake but not about vitamins or other as much important nutrients. I care about none because I know that what I cook is perfectly healthy. I’m a vegetarian that eat sometimes a bit of cooked white meat or fish. And I’m an egg lover!

Eggs are perfect from breakfast to dinner, they can be prepared and combined in so many ways that I could cook them differently pretty much everyday!! So when I found myself with a bloc of momendofu in my fridge, immediately I though about a delicious fluffy omelet for dinner. The tofu always needs to be drained for a better taste so never skip that part. In a bowl I put the tofu and 3 big eggs, a little of salt and pepy and I mixed until it took some volume up and started to foam. In a large frypan I heared s bit of vegetal oil and cooked on both sude the omelet. Then cut and serve with steam veggies.

Vegetarian late dinner

Sometimes (often) I don’t have much time to prepare dinner so I really like to prepare sautéed fresh seasonal vegetables (carrot, lotus root, potato, okra), and this time I accompanied them with a fluffy tofu omelet. Yes fluffy again, after yesterday’s pancakes recipe!

In a bater I mixed 3 eggs and a block of silky tofu roughly drained, and beat well. I cooked it in a frypan under cover at medium heat both sides until golden.
