Red Snapper and Shark

June 12, 2022 by thebengali

Fresh red snapper is a good option for a quick side with steamed rice. Especially if you have a Shark stirfry with a hint of gravy on the other burner as a main course. The recipe for tonight was quiet simple: mustard oil, snapper fillets, sprinkle herbs, salt and chilly flakes, close and cook for ten minutes. Open lid, turn and cook for five more minutes. The shark stir fry is simpler. Mustard oil, garlic, chilly, shark meat chunks, salt, […]

And every day there’s someone else on that list. 13.15 pm Am struggling right now. Struggling to walk, struggling to sit, […]

Another day of working from morn till night, dragging by myself from hour to hour, lying to myself that there is a higher purpose to this daily drudgery? […]
