Monday's lunch!
Monday October home lunch — rice, eggs, vegetables. Standard weekday rotation continuing into Q4.
Monday lunch at home with BB — first Monday of October, the steady weekday rotation continues into Q4.
Today’s plate:
- Hot rice base
- Fried egg (sunny-side)
- Stir-fried vegetables
- Pan-seared protein
- Chilli sauce on the side
The Monday lunch is the start-of-week reset meal after the weekend. After Sunday’s home spaghetti bolognese, Monday returns to the simple Asian-style home plate.
Hot rice base was the standard fluffy jasmine.
Fried egg was the M-style sunny-side. Crispy white edges, runny golden yolk.
Stir-fried vegetables today were cabbage shreds with carrot strips, smashed garlic and a splash of soy.
Pan-seared protein was a small portion of sausage rounds.
Chilli sauce on the side as always.
We sat at the kitchen counter, drank coffee from the V60, ate slow. The work-from-home Monday rhythm had become genuinely automatic.
The home weekday lunch had become the cost-effective baseline that anchored the work week. Some lockdown habits earn their permanence post-reopening; this routine sits firmly on the keeper list.
Overall: 4.2 / 5. 😋👍🏼 Reliable Monday home lunch — keeping the routine.
