It was raining almost every evening or night. We have not been using the air-conditioner and some nights we don't even need the fan.
Afternoon sky at 4:20 pm.
Heavy rain expected any time.
~~~~~
I had beef in the freezer and a packet of ready made rendang paste. I have been thinking of beef rendang for a long time and rainy season is the best time to enjoy beef rendang.
My home cooked beef rendang using Brahim's ready made rendang paste.
Plain blanched romaine lettuce because I was too lazy to prepare garlic oil.
Steamed brown rice.
Simple yet appetizing dinner for 2 people.
The brown rice was not mixed with polished rice.
For this wonderful news - the message that God
wants to save us - has been given to us
just as it was to those who lived in the time of Moses.
But it didn't do them any good
because they didn't believe it.
They didn't mix it with faith.
(Hebrews 4:2, The Living Bible-TLB)
Don't think I've heard of polished rice..maybe it's another name here.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Polished rice has more starch and less nutrient.
DeleteLooks very tasty. Another great homemade eal.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mamas.
DeleteThat should read meal.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mamas.

DeleteReady made paste makes it so convenient to cook rendang. I love it with nasi minyak/nasi tomato and acar.

DeleteYour homecooked beef rendang must be tastier than those sold outside.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, the taste is quite good. This is a good paste.

ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day, Nancy. ♥
Thank you, Sandee. Have a fabulous weekend.
DeleteI totally, totally love that sky!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rose.
DeleteInteresting that you cook your lettuce. Here, we eat it uncooked with salad dressing.
ReplyDeleteSometimes we eat it raw, most times we blanch it.
DeleteI have no idea what polished rice is!!! The meal looks great though. Stay safe and have a good weekend, Diane
ReplyDeletePolished rice is white rice with all the outer nutrient and bran removed. Have a good weekend too. Stay warm and stay safe.
DeleteWonderfully moody shots.
ReplyDeleteThank you, William.
DeleteYour beef rendang looks so very tasty. Is the rendang paste on the sweet side and only a bit spicy?
ReplyDeleteYes, the paste very nice, not spicy.
DeleteYum
ReplyDeleteThank you, RR.
DeleteThis is my kind of meal, beef & rice is yummy!!
ReplyDeleteI love it too.
DeleteEasy and yummy way of cooking rendang.
ReplyDeleteYou remind me that I haven't mixed brown rice in for quite some time. Gosh MCO has made my brain slow!
Actually I don't want to mix with white rice but hubby complained the brown rice not nice.
DeleteSe ve muy bueno. Besos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
Deleteso very nice
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
DeleteThe good thing about rain is it has to stop sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI am thankful that is true.
