Lunch and dinner for yesterday

Day 2

After the amazing rice pudding for breakfast, it was always going to be hard to better any meals on Day 2. But somehow we managed!

Lunch was quite simple: leftover pork mince cooked with sauteed leeks and rolled in lettuce leaves (I'm going to make this again tonight so will post a detailed recipe and pictures later).

Dinner however was the piece de resistance (again spelling?)...
Over to Mandy's place, after a walk around Southbank and my first (and most likely only) trip on the Brisbane Wheel, where we prepared chicken noodle soup.

Ingredients
Chicken stock/broth (again recipe to follow)
Shredded brussel sprouts
Shredded cabbage
Chicken pieces (from the roast chicken cooked on Sunday - the bones of which were used to make the broth)
Shallots
Rice noodles
Celery leaves

Method
Simply place the broth in a pot of the stove to re-heat. Add the brussel sprouts, cabbage, chicken and cook until the vegetables are tender. Then add in the rice noodles, shallots and celery leaves. Heat for a couple of minutes then serve.

VERDICT: I need to take more photos. And yum! I'm going to use bigger noodles next time (not the vermicelli).
