6/3/08 | Leftovers: Korokke / Yakisoba
[ Currently Eating: Blueberry Oatmeal ]

I have to make a short post today, since I have to get to a meeting in a bit. So we’ll go with Leftovers for Lunch again and hopefully I’ll get another post in later in the week. This is yesterday’s lunch, another combination of leftover “Parent’s” cooking and something made at home.
Sorry, this isn’t as a good photo as a few of the other Korokke ones I’ve made. The potato and meat based fried croquettes are really popular at my parent’s house, and they heat and crisp up really well in the toaster for nearly a week afterwards.
The Yakisoba, which is a little like Japanese chow mein, is half homemade and half storebought. They have sell the noodles, which are the fresh variety and not dried, and the dry sauce mix at the store for very cheap - about $1.50 or less for a three pack. They completely kick the ass over any dry ramen varieties. But they aren’t very good for you, of course. If you haven’t had it before, the taste of the sauce is a bit strange - very worcestershire sauce-like. We take 2 packs and add to that some sliced pork, carrots, celery, onion and whatever green veggies are around. Not too bad for dinner and leftover lunch the next day.
