This was the first Thursday of March.
Took this photo before we started our morning walk at 7:08am.
Sunrise at 7:33am.
Sunrise at 7:36am.
Sunrise at 7:40am.
Home grown Green Amaranth growing in a small patch in front of our house.
I harvested the Green Amaranth and some left over Water Spinach (kangkong) found growing next to the Green Amaranth.
Will be using these greens for dinner.
I re-steamed the thawed frozen smoked salted duck (half a duck) and chopped it up for dinner.
Blanched Green Amaranth with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.
This was our dinner for 2 persons.
The smoked salted duck was tasty but the texture a bit hard.
We have not yet seen all of this take place,
but we do see Jesus - who for a while was a little
lower than the angels - crowned now by God
with glory and honor because he suffered death for us.
Yes, because of God's great kindness,
Jesus tasted death for everyone in all the world.
(Hebrews 2:7b-9, The Living Bible-TLB)
i m so envious of your home-grown veggies...your land must be so fertile to have such a green leafy fresh produce!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Nux. We have been adding compost and fertilizer to the soil to plant our vegetables.
DeleteYour wonderful food alwas makes me hungry. Love the sky photos. Have a great weekend, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThank you, Valerie. Have a great weekend too.
DeleteI love your home grown bayam! It is delicious simply stir fried with garlic and salt. They way you do it is also very good.
ReplyDeleteThank you, PH. I usually stir fry the bayam with garlic and salt. This is one of the time I choose to blanch the bayam because they were very tender.
DeleteI have never had/seen Amaranth! You live in a great place, that is so nice to see!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Iris.
DeleteThat duck looks so good!!! Texture a bit hard? That is the problem sometimes. I buy home only to find that eating it can be quite a struggle. So pissed off!!!
ReplyDeleteEven though a bit hard, we finished it. Lol!
DeleteYour green plate is delicious and the sunrise a wow.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Riitta.
Delete...the duck looks like a wonderful choice.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tom.
DeleteI miss water spinach! Don't ever see them over here and they used to be one of my favourite summer veggies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie. Water spinach is also one of my favourite veggies.
DeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jim.
DeleteI always like to read about your garden adventures. That's great to have homegrown food. This sunrise is amazing too.
ReplyDeleteSunrise at 7:36am - it is perfect
Thank you, Amila.

Green Amaranth is a green vegetable which is rich in nutrients. Have a great weekend too.
DeleteI have heard of amaranth, but I don't think they sell it here. What does it taste like?
ReplyDeleteI don't know how to describe the taste of amaranth but I know that it is rich in nutrients.
DeleteThe food is making me feel very hungry, it looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mamas.
DeleteI love duck and used to roast one from time to time. But it is expensive so I don't cook it very often.
ReplyDeleteI have not tried roasting a duck before. Duck is not cheap here too.
DeleteBeautiful skies and your duck always looks tasty. Enjoy your weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Yogi. Enjoy your weekend too.
DeleteOh that smoked salted duck looks amazing
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sakuranko.
DeleteOh the food. I took some of each dish. Delicious.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and weekend, Nancy. ♥
Thank you, Sandee. Have a beautiful weekend.
DeleteAmaranth is cardio healthy and helps reduce stress.
ReplyDeleteAmaranth leaves are an excellent source of protein, with its maximum accumulation in the flowering phase. In addition, the leaves contain a good amount of provitamin A and vitamin C.
Nancy how lucky you are to have them at your fingertips!
Thank you, Norma. We eat amaranth quite often.
DeleteSuch a dramatic sky.

DeleteRico pato, te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteThank you, JP.
DeleteThank you, Francisco.
ReplyDeleteVery flavourful Smoked Salted Duck. I can only eat one piece with rice because if I eat more pieces then I would need to eat more rice. I prefer your Green Amaranth dish For Dinner. Must very tasty since you grow the greens yourself. How many meals for you to eat all the duck?
ReplyDelete1 piece of smoked duck will not be enough for me because I eat more rice than you. Lol!
DeleteYour meals make me hungry!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mimi.
DeleteI've never seen amaranth as a plant before
ReplyDeleteAmaranth is easy to grow here.
DeleteEsa verdura se ve muy bien. Besos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteI'd think of stewing the duck in sauce to make it more tender.
ReplyDeleteThat was what I thought of doing but then there were only a few pieces left, so might as well finish all.
DeleteAmaranath is a superfood. There is nothing better than homegrown veggies. Thanks for sharing with Garden Affair.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Arun for hosting.
