I have a very good friend called Emily, who sadly lives far, far away, in London...a few years back, we were mucking about, and came up with a philosophy that has served us well, thus far anyway! Don't die wondering...try something new! It can be applied to all sorts of things, from jobs, to friendships & relationships, you get the picture right? I'm urging you to try it out for yourself, who knows what you may discover!
What has this to do with my husbands lunchbox? And what is that odd thing I am holding in the picture? It looks like a shark or sting ray egg, you may have seen them at the beach, washed up on the shore? In fact it's a delicious tropical fruit, known as DRAGON FRUIT! Most summer fruits are well & truly over by now, and with the cooler months ahead, we're staring down the barrel of a lot of apple & orange action...pretty boring.
Luckily for us Aussies, some of our country is tropical all year round, so we can get fruit like the dragon fruit, and at least pretend that we're somewhere warm...
These interesting fruits come in 2 varieties, and have a half sweet and half savoury taste. It can be potluck as to which colour they'll be inside...white or red! And yes, the red one's go in red...and come out red too!!!!
So...in the lunchbox today?
A fruit salad of pineapple, red & white dragon fruit and mandarins...almost looks too pretty to eat! And leftover singapore-ish noodles, adapted from a recipe from UK chef Ching He-Huang ...the recipe can be found at:
I added heaps more veggies to it, and I really enjoyed the subtle curry flavour and beautiful sunset yellow colour from the turmeric... give it a go!
