Roll ups. Stir fried beef strips which have been in a marinade, fresh I mean super fresh pita from the Oasis bakery in Murrumbeena, hummous, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, capsicum, shredded carrot, pickled cabbage from the lebanese shop & I've gotta have a bit of beetroot. The trick is not putting too much in while putting a bit of evrything in & roll it tightly.
Followed by a fresh fruit salad bought from the fruit & vege shop.

WPT - sounds nice.

I do a wrap like that with home made hummus or a marinated thin sliced lamb back strap type one with home made tzatziki.

But tonight home made San Choy Bow.

Before I tried it I had the same reaction.

But the way this lebanese shop in the Melbourne suburb of Murrumbeena "Oasis" does it & with the rest of the mix, its yum scrum.

Mind you I didn't eat olives or avocado till I was about 18!

That sounds delicious. Chicken, pork or beef SCB?

I find it the best with the Pork & Chicken or you can use Pork & Veal mince in the SCB.

A little bit of Hoisin sauce and a touch of Oyster sauce gives it a great extra flavour.

Sounds yum. I like pickled cabbage in some things. I wouldn't normally put it in a concoction like that, but..............

Well, there are many possible answers to the question of what the C stands for, but I won't go there. Suffice to say I asked for the round eye burger.

I got the idea from the Oasis bakery. They have a cafe attached & make lebanese meals incuding felafel & shwarma. Their standard salad ingredients include the fresh salad types & a bit of pickled cabbage.

Spag Bol with meatballs tonight.

Bit cooler and after having BBQ and Salad for the last few days and nights, nice change.

But needs more chili.
