Choucroute Garnie
With everything that’s been going on with my mother-in-law, I haven’t had the time and energy to cook a proper meal at home. For two days, I’ve left home early morning to join my mother-in-law at the hospital and from there, went to the office. Because I’ve been late coming in in the morning, I try to stay a little later at night. When I get home, I feel the exhaustion just piling up on my shoulder and I can barely drag my feet to get to bed, let alone cook. In short, we haven’t been eating well. On the third day, Dad decided to take matters in his hands.
Seafood Pasta
With the pack of mixed seafood I wrote about earlier, I decided to make Seafood Pasta, in a white wine and tomato sauce. One of the Italian restaurants in Cebu I like is La Tegola and one of my favorite dishes they make is Pasta al Cartoccio, which is seafood pasta in a tomato sauce. After cooking the pasta and mixing in the sauce, they wrap it up in foil and let it stay inside the oven for a couple of minutes. The dish is usually served unopened to your table and a waitress/waiter opens it in front of you. The smell that first lets out of that foil is heavenly!
