Cooking for the Husband


I've sort of settled into my new home. Yesterday, I drove Mr. F's car to Meat One (rather overrated) and got chicken fillets to cook for dinner (he was staying late at work, so I thought I'd surprise him). I made Crispy Chicken with Lemon Sauce, except, I didn't let the sauce boil and thicken and it was kinda runny and the chicken could've been more tender.

Anyway, I served it with fried rice and chinese noodles (given to me by mommy dearest). Mr. F took a few bites, didn't say anything. Then he got up, took the dish to the kitchen and "modified" it with Stir-fry sauce and chilli sauce and cooked it for a few more minutes. Then he brought it back to the table and bade me try some. It was delicious... :P

So my husband's a gourmet chef and I'm a sandwich and microwave person... this will be interesting.

  1. I think this is the clearest indication from the almighty that you ought to just get a cook.

    Men are proficient cookers with premade sauces.

  3. You should have the cook teach you a few things! Would she (he?) be willing to do that?

  5. I admire his guts...

    In my household that would have meant my wife/mom/sister to not talk to me for 2 weeks at least, create lots of drama... and most probably me going hungry for those 2 weeks. (IT HAS ACTUALLY HAPPENED :P)
