nota: essa minha receita saiu no site pimenta no reino no final de maio. foi uma alegria enorme pra mim ter minha receita no site da Faby Zanelati
Camarão cremoso gratinado
Quando eu cozinho minha filosofia é não usar mais do que duas panelas. Na maioria das vezes é apenas uma mesmo. Gosto de, quando vou comer, já ter o máximo de coisas limpas. Eu moro em hall de residência da universidade, faço minhas refeições no meu quarto, e minhas instalações culinárias se limitam a uma prateleira na geladeira, uma prateleira no freezer e duas portas nos armários da cozinha. Ali armazeno minha comida (tem alguma coisa no meu quarto também) e panelas e canecas de cafe / chá e talheres e pratos e temperos. Então, para viver feliz estipulo alguns limites que sejam gerenciáveis para minha pessoa, e assim sempre que cozinho faco o suficiente para duas ou três refeições. Adorei fazer – e comer – esse camarão.
Ingredientes
2 col sopa de azeite de oliva extra virgem trufado com mangericão
300 gramas de camarões
um pouco de pimenta calabresa (quanto você goste)
1 cebola cortada em rodelas
4 dentes de alho
4 tomates para salada (pequenos) cortados ao meio
um pouco de vinho branco
1 col sobremesa de mostarda em grãos
250 ml de cream elmlea do tipo simples (primo do creme de leite)
1 col de sopa (so pra dar um sabor) de cream cheese (requeijão)
queijo parmesão pra gratinar no final
Modo de fazer
Não medi criteriosamente nada. Essas medidas são aproximadas, mesmo, só pra dar uma idéia. antes de começar a cozinhar deixei todos os ingredientes cortadinhos e no ponto para serem adicionados à panela. Refoguei o alho e a cebola no azeite. Fogo médio. Acrescentei os tomates. Não mexi muito. Fui deixando pegar um sabor. Adicionei e refoquei os camarões, que soltaram um pouco d’água. Fogo baixo pra secar um pouco da água e assim ir ficando mais cremoso. Acrescentei a pimenta calabresa, a mostarda em grãos e o vinho branco. Quando tava quase pronto, com os camarões cozidos, acrescentei o cream almlea e o requeijão e deixei cozinhar mais um pouquinho. Arrumei esse preparado num pirex, joguei uma chuvinha feliz de queijo parmesão ralado na hora por cima e levei ao forno pra gratinar.
Comi o camarão com esse arroz tailandês cozido só com água, sem sal ou óleo. Também não acrescentei sal ao camarão, deixei que ele ficasse só com o que já recebe dos outros ingredientes do prato. Enquanto o pirex com os camarões estava no forno eu fui limpando os sinais do meu servico na cozinha, que compartilho com mais seis estudantes: três da china, um dos estados unidos, uma do canadá, e um da india.
this is for me to write freely about my impressions, experiences, and memories while living here in Southampton. it is also meant to be an open window between myself and the world - my significant others there included. love - peace - good health - family - friends . . . a good book / movie in great company to enjoy life, along with a superb meal & wine & dessert is what i wish us all, Kalina

le plat du jour: salmon with bread
14 mar 2011
le plat du jour today was this scrumptious salmon with flute bread, from waitrose. i love both dearly. the salmon is so practical. we buy them in baking bags (envelopes) that are sealed at the supermarket, we just place them in the hot oven for 20 minutes and voila! it is beautifully done. ideally the salmon could be eaten with roast potatoes or nice, but i neither have time forcomplicated and time consuming cooking nor did i feel like cooking more than the salmon requires. it was a fantastic meal. had tea on the side and no dessert. uhlala!

le plat du jour: feeding body & soul
25 june 2010
today I still felt a little lost with the crumb of freedom I have now from the many recent responsibilities. I came to the office today wearing the official Brazilian shirt and went to watch the second half of the match Brazil vs Portugal at the Stag’s head. Not much emotion, it was a draw, but we’re safe, that should make up for a reason for celebration, I think. on my way back home i stopped Somerfield, a local supermarket, and this guy started talking football with me. he wanted a chat but at present i don't have enough information to carry out a proper conversation, i'm afraid, but we still had a nice chat.
le plat: Then I came home, hungry and thinking I do need to cook up some of the food I have in the house. i just put two veggie burgers with sliced mushrooms in a tray, sprinked salt, chilly and olive oil on them, and put it in the oven to bake for about 20 minutes. the burgers were frozen. the mushrooms look dark, but the 'plat' tasted fantastic. when i was making the food one of my flatmates said it smelled really good. i added seasticks to the plate and voila! it was surprisingly different and turned out better than i expected, considering my lack of planning for the cooking and my natural inability to cook good food.
l'assiete: dark lindt chocolat
la boisson: english tea. i had a banquet today. really loved the different food, with no carbo this time. i only ate one of the great veggie burgers, saved the other one for another meal.
other than finding time to cook some, i started to read a good yesterday, as i feel the need to feed my soul with other words, other images, freer and maybe more poetic. please don't get me wrong, i love my readings, really do, but want to vary a bit. doing the fun reading makes me feel like someone who can afford a luxrious hobby. ok, so yesterday i started reading 'time was soft there', from Jeremy Mercer. he worked as a jounalist who specialized in crimes in Canada. in the book he tells of his experience of living in the Shakespeare and company bookstore in Paris. the book is very interesting and Jeremy a great writer. i actually contacted him the other day through email and he replied to me. Everytime i speak with someone famous i remember my cousin Silvana saying i never lose the habit of approaching famous people. why is that? maybe a symptom. i am, with the good food and the good book feeding body & soul :-) cheers!

le plat du jour
19 june 2010
le plat: steamed asparagus, seastick and stuffed cabbage. i seasoned this veggie salad with olive oil and chilly. it tasted good. plus rice and meat the burger i inherited from mat before she left.
le gateau: lindt dark chocolate
la boisson: english tea.
note: i always have the dessert together with the tea. my lunch today was very delicious. i was surprised myself. it had been a long while since i last cooked because i've basically been busy and eating on campus every day. i now have veggetables that are going old and will probably have to go to the bin soon. hehehe i also steamed broccoli but forgot to eat them with the meal. oh my! to feed the soul, well, good jazz all day long.

le plat du jour
13 june 2010
le plat: mash potatoes, avocado, and seastick.
i am not sure this plate of mine looks very attractive for some people, but fact is it was really good and different. i loved to have the avocado with the mash and the seastick. it was, for me, a complete meal.
le gateau: null
la boisson: taiwanese tea
it was also 'plat of the jour' the long, very long journey on campus. at first on the avenue campus, where i stayed all day, until about 5.30 pm. when everyone leaves the office i can't stay there alone. i simply cannot make it. i don't know why but i don't feel like staying there alone.
so, at about 5.30 i went to highfield campus. there i met hsuyia and jenny and chatted with them for a while at the cafe. were went there to eat something. we were all there on a sunday obviously to study. jenny is finishing up her MA dissertation. hsuyia will have her upgrade in a few days; so, she is now reading up more studies to keep cool. i stayed on campus until 10pm. when i left it was quite cold and i was quite tired, but feeling that i ha done the right thing. i always thing i have to make the right choices, and most of the time i don't make the right choices in my life. it takes me forever to 'get the picture', but i'll get there. back home i just had some cereal with milk to eat. bed is so inviting now.

londres: almoco no domingo
16 may 2010 (sobre o final de semana em londres)
no domingo a beth convidou a elsa para almocar com a gente, e cozinhou, mais um vez, comida super especial. e ainda me deu uma marmita pra trazer: o excelente risoto da para duas refeicoes. a beth eh uma pessoa leve, que gosta de ter amigos por perto, e de um coracao generoso. foi muito bacana conhece-la e passar esses dias com ela. conversamos sem parar sobre muitos assuntos. ela tem uma cabeca aberta, e uma leveza sabia de quem ja viu muito, mas muito mesmo nessa vida e nao fica chocada com pouco. beth eh de paz!
na sexta e no sabado ela fez umas comidas que eu adorei, umas saladas e um arroz integral e outras coisas mais criativas e sadias. ah, teve tambem um tortelloni campeao. no domingo o cardapio para a elsa foi um risoto com vegetais (cenoura e abobrinha), queijo parmesao ralado, alem de uma cebolinha no final. teve tambem um salmao no forno com batatas cozidas ali do lado, acompanhados de uma salada fresca de vegetais crus maravilhosa! a salada teve duas opcoes para tempero: um molho feito de maionese, creme e cebolinha e um azeite misturado com vinagre balsamico para. banquete. suco natural de abacaxi. a sobremesa foi uma combinacao de suspiro com sorvete e geleia de framboesa. ah, o cafezinho da beth eh campeao. bote uma colherinha do cafe sobre o sorvete. socoooorro. Deus eh mais.
nao sei a resposta, mas eu nao sou nem um pouco parecida com isso, com essa ordem. pensando bem, preciso sim de ordem e higiene; e quando estou mesmo num caos geral aqui no pedaco preciso primeiro de ordem para so entao ser produtiva, mesmo que eu nao va utilizar nenhuma das pecas que foram resgatadas e devolvidas a seu justo lugar. acredito que a disponizicao das pecas no tabuleiro da vida de cada lar revela o estado mental dos seus habitantes. na minha casa eh assim. parece que sei exatamente onde piso quando ha ordem e uma boa arrumacao. parece que nem sei por onde comecar quando, bom, cade mesmo minha caneta? cade eu?

o sentido da vida
4 may 2010
(post originado de um email enviado - agora mesmo - pra minha irma. apenas minha parte ta aqui.)
kassandra,
ontem fiquei muito triste de ver que o fabio barreto, o cineasta, ainda ta num momento preocupante, sem acordar do coma, sei la. poucas e tristes informacoes no uol. rezo por ele. de um acidente de carro, que a gente espera nao ter causado problemas incontornaveis, ate hoje ele esta num estado complicado. um homem lindo, jovem, e talentoso, e com uma familia linda esperando por ele. acho muito, muito triste.
o que tu tem feito? caminhadas? sabado passado assisti um filme: 'walk the line' sobre a vida do cantor americano country / gospel / romantico - do tennessee - johnny cash. toda vida mostra ou esconde dores apenas suportaveis nas telas. talvez por isso contemos de nos aas vezes: na esperanca de tudo se transformar em fantasia, ou pesadelo.
eu to aqui, lenta, atolada. . . devagar, e tentando acertar o passo. o frio nao vai embora, apesar das flores e das cores terem chegado lindissimas. nao canso de admirar isso. tenho variado meu caminho, tenho caminhado mais, tanto na direcao da uni como na direcao do centro da cidade. e assim tem sido minhas tentativas fazer mais, ou fazer, apenas.
to terminando um cha verde com limao. hoje meu cafe da manha foi pao com cafe, mas sinto falta do chazinho, que me ajuda na digestao brilhantemente. a proposito, ontem de noite tive uma diarreia inimaginavel pra mim. acho que foi de uns vegetais que preparei na frigideira. refoguei tudo com manteiga e um pouco de azeite e depois botei um tiquim de molho de soja. pense na portinha de tras aberta e gritando ao mundo inteiro que queria sair. a aventura varou madrugada adentro. mas to bem. ontem meu jantar foi esses vegetais, arroz (comprei aqueles do saquinho que vao na agua fervente e ficam no ponto logo), e salmao assado no forno, temperado com sal, pimenta, e coberto de lascas de cogumelo e um tiquim de manteiga e azeite de oliva em cima. eu queria comida comida, e arroz. agora nao sei mesmo onde a bomba foi preparada. minha quimica so entende de amor hehehehe
beijo e fique com Deus,
morena
