Number of servings: 2

Ingredients:
200g (7oz.) watermelon rind (not the green part)
1 tsp. salt
100g (3.5oz.) thinly sliced pork
50g (1.8oz.) carrot
100g (3.5oz.) bean sprouts
6 Chinese chives
an inch (small piece) of Shoga (ginger root)
A

* 1/2 tbsp. Sake
* 1 tbsp. soy sauce
cracked black pepper
1/2 tbsp. corn or potato starch
1/2 tbsp. sesame oil

Directions:
1. Remove hard green rind and weigh on a scale (200g). You may leave a bit of red portion.
2. Cut the watermelon rind (1.) into short and thin strips. Sprinkle with 1 tsp. of salt, leave for 5 minutes until tender, then squeeze out excess water.
3. Cut pork and carrot into thin strips. Remove the roots and heads of bean sprouts (you can leave the heads if you like). Cut Chinese chives into 2 inches long. Cut Shoga into thin strips.
4. Heat sesame oil in a frying pan and cook Shoga until fragrant. Then add pork, carrot, bean sprouts, watermelon rinds, and Chinese chive in order. Add A and stir-fry until the seasonings blend. Turn off the heat, add starch mixed with the same amount of water, heat again to thicken the sauce, then sprinkle with cracked black pepper to finish.

JUMBO Ebi Katsu

On Saturday morning, I had a dream eating JUMBO Ebi Katsu, so I had it for dinner to make it come true!!! Luckily, it was offered with 10% summer discount :D And a glass of beer was 50% off! (I don't drink beer, though.)



Actually in my dream, I couldn't eat it since I woke up when I realized... I told my darling why he woke me up (maybe he didn't...) but he said he knows nothing, of course. Sometimes I'm sleep-fogged, never mind!

Their appetizer tofu was really nice with wasabi :D



I wore my everyday hoodie since I got up late and didn't feel like dressing up. LoL I totally understand what Kym said before. Hoodies are my go-to item of clothing!



Katsukura is my favorite tonkatsu restaurant! We've tried many other tonkatsu restaurants, but I think here is the best!!!

Last but not least, I edited a new video last night but damn iMovie again didn't save the project... I wonder why this happens often (I gotta call Apple)! My one-hour-work ended up nothing X(

Heart Cloud In The Sky

My darling found this heart-shaped cloud in the sky.



It changed the form quickly so we were lucky to see it at that time.

I think I'm so busy that I'm kind of forgetting to see up the sky now...

How fast! It's already Friday today!

Have a good weekend!!!
