I'm having stir-fried chicken with peapod (snow peas) and galangal root. -with rice of course.

The ribs weren't bad...a bit fatty, but nice flavor.
What in the world is galangal root? I've never heard of that critter

It looks a bit like ginger root except it is slightly tougher and white instead of yellow. It has a zing to it like horse raddish, yet it's different than that. It has sort of a pungent fragrence and gives a unique flavor to cooking.

hmmm...that sounds extremely tasty. I'll have to keep my eyes open for some of that...fat chance where I live, though. Being a small town, the variety you find in the stores is not always what you'd like it to be.

Yep it is. I had to get it in a Chinese supermarket. Then I freeze it. The local supermarkets don't have stuff like galangal where I live either, so you might not even find it at a regualr supermarket in a city either. I only know one dish with it though.

The other night I made bean enchiladas for the first time - suprisingly easy, too. The only thing - I bought HOT enchilada sauce by mistake!

So what's everybody eating today? Today is my school night so I have to eat on the run. But probably making a nice quick sandwiche.
