FOOD FOR MIND

This are food for my mind, as I told you before, I used food as my conveyance of live so this recipe are literally for my mind. I have quite bad anxiety, which I notice when I was un-nurtured my body, I got anxious pretty easily and it will continue getting bad. I tried this kind of easy food for quite sometime, it help me through difficult time, or I think so or maybe I could deceive my mind by think it so. This natural remedy are worked quite well for me, for temporary at least hehe but it much better than taking any chemical medicine, don’t you think so?

This are simple recipe, I only used ginger, garlic, black pepper and Himalayan salt to seasoned, the amount of ginger I used is only 2 slice as I don’t want it to over power the flavour, I just want an infuse of warmness, for the rest I let the ingredient do the talking. I always have shiitake in my fridge when it in season, as I love it for my emergency ingredient, it is versatile in everything and it taste super delicious.

The warm hint of ginger, the sweetness of petit pois, the chewy savoury of shiitake and salty spinach, do I need to describe it even more? I enjoy this meal with my fried rice, If you don’t get bored with my fried rice I will attach the recipe here, it is caramelize onion, lime leaves and lemon grass fried rice, quite odd combo but I love it, it is fragrance.

So shall we?
