Oh yeah, I got tickets to POP last week…
Probably going to run into a lot of people there, although at LovEvolution we didn’t because we were probably too drunk.
10 people in for Countdown. I foresee massive cuddle puddle. Or, you know, staying up till 7am by myself AS USUAL. Haha. So sad.
Here’s an easy recipe for fish stew. I found it online and made it sometime last semester. It’s fucking amazing. I used tomato sauce instead of diced tomato and consequently used more coconut milk. I think I also added fresh tomatoes and celery and other vegetables that were around. I was also cooking for 30+ people so I don’t even know what proportions I added- just winged it to taste. Whatever- fucking amazing.
Brazilian Fish Stew (serves 6)
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds tilapia or cod fillets, cut into chunks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 onions, chopped
- 4 large bell peppers, sliced
- 1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
- 1 (16 ounce) can coconut milk
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
1. Stir together the lime juice, cumin, paprika, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add the tilapia and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 20 minutes, up to 24 hours.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Quickly fry the onions in the oil 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add the bell peppers, tilapia, and diced tomatoes to the pot in succeeding layers. Pour the coconut milk over the mixture. Cover the pot and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cilantro and continue cooking until the tilapia is completely cooked through, another 5 to 10 minutes.
