holy shit i'm tired....it's 1.30am and i just got done giving both cousins about 40 pieces of my mostly "never worn" clothing...i'm such a cruddy shopper....hopefully things will change....
so i started cooking at noon....loaded up the big pots for stew and soup....rendang and oxtail soup were the first to simmer, headed to the supermarket and started on brining the turkey by 2.....i thought i was about to die by 4....but a giant coffee got me through the pain long enough to know deep fried turkey was close to lift off....
i don't even know how many dishes came out for 8 people....but thats just how we do it at my house....or how I DO IT..hahaha.....
deep fried turkey, mashed potatoes (mushroom, bacon, garlic, onion, chives), creamed spinach (montery jack/parmesean), stuffing (italian sausage is key), beef tendon rendang (benny is the man), tom yom soup (will taste better tomorrow), oxtail soup (cloves, cilantro...interesting?...awesome), actually my aunt brought oxtail soup too, steamed fish, steamd shrimp, chinese spinach and chinese okra, romaine salad, cranberry compote (i cheated a little bit), turkey gravy (instead of wine, i used beer)
