The Nose Knows

The first dish is tenderloin with apple, red onion and broccoli.

The second is a horse steak with broccoli, red onion and a sweet pepper.

The last one was intended to be with chicken, but there was a hint of an odd smell to it so I decided not to use it. The reason that we have a nose hanging right over our mouth is to be able to sniff anything we eat, in case it may have gone bad or seem unpalatable. So I trust my olfactory sense implicitely when it comes to these things. Nose knows best. It tasted good as it is, though for linner today, I'll have the same with the intended chicken.

KISS

Today's motto was "Keep It Simple, Stupid!".

Breakfast was so simple I didn't even take a picture - two apples and an orange. No protein made me a bit peccish, so I made a nice big lunch.
It was stir fried tenderloin and broccoli with the simplest of salads - tomato and cucumber.

Hardly had time for dinner, so to eggs and a salted herring with some veggies hed to do. They did.

Dutch Fries

Dinner is pork tenderloin with mushrooms and red cabbage. The orange chips are fried pumpkin slices.

I made the mistake of adding a bit of salt to the pork dish (which turned out to have needed none) but none to the pumpkin. That turned out to be a bit bland, so I sprinkled just a little salt over those as well. That made all the difference. I've decided that the Netherlands gets a second national dish (the other one obviously being salted herring), in our dutch national colour, orange. Ladies and gentlemen, may I present you - Dutch Fries.
