Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice is a heavy order whenever I go to any Japanese restaurant, and I feel like I just got away with something recreating this little dish. The key is to use sushi rice and sushi grade fish, both of which I do not have any interest in sourcing. Enter: Whole Food’s. While I don’t particularly enjoy their sushi when eaten fresh, this hack is a game changer.
I started this blog as an inventory of food I make for myself since I have the propensity to eat something every day for three months and then never eat it again after being painstakingly sick of it. However, give me a year and I will likely have developed a taste for said item again. Since my memory is equivalent to that of a goldfish, if I didn’t have an inventory to refer back to I would likely completely forget about the recipe.
Anyway, that’s a long way to get to the point: this post is anything but ground breaking, but I don’t want to forget about these. Come back next week when I’ll tell you how to boil pasta.
The perfect winter comfort food for the lazy chef. Also, fun fact: all tuna is wild-caught. I usually get Wild Planet, which is pole and line caught and responsibly sourced. They have a no salt added version if you’re watching your sodium.
Ok first of all I air fried my fish and if you don’t have an air frier already I IMPLORE you to buy one. I literally use it every day. I don’t use oil on anything but if you’re not counting calories like it’s your fucking job then adding a little makes everything amazing. Like you could cook a piece of kale and be blown away. Also, Truff Hot Sauce is worth the hype. I’m making these for lunch to add more veggies to my diet and stay fairly low carb, not to mention they take 7 mins.
Cauliflower is having a moment and I am fucking here for it. In a somewhat effective effort to get thin for summer, I’ve been toying with low-carb options. As anyone who has given up bread knows, after 2 days you feel so deprived and are like screw this and then eat an apple pie, so eating satisfying foods is KEY. I’ve been having this for lunch almost every day and have officially tricked my brain into thinking I am actually eating pizza when really I am basically eating a salad. Minimal prep and I have meals for the week.
