So I'll be hopefully heading home next week. That means access to an actual kitchen and fridge with actual food instead of relying on the caffeteria and fast food joints.
Now, I haven't properly cooked anything in months and I'm really getting a hankering for some playing around with food.
So far, I have no idea what exactly I'll be making (or having access to, but that's easily remedied by a trip to the store) but I have some vague cravings of meat and veggie stuff.
I've been considering chicken and mushroom mix with maybe some sort of sauce or extra vegetables in the mix, but aside from the main two ingredients I have no idea what would go well with this so it doesn't try to fight the usually strong mushroom flavour. Maybe some white sauce would be good since from expirience tomato based stuff doesn't usually play nice with mushrooms (then again I could've been doing it wrong for all I know).
Another option is beef/pork, with some more vegetables in some sort of sauce or just swimming around in whatever liquid the veggies and meat let out. I've been thinking of making some sort of ghetto sweet and sour sauce but I'm not sure what I'd be adding aside from vinegar/ketchup/soy. In any case I want something chunky so I've been considering peppers, carrots, onions and maaaaybe pineapple if I can find a sufficently small package since I don't think it'll be used for anything else.
As far as side dishes go I'm thinking either something rice or potato based, depending on the main course.
