Normally, after a day of having lechon manok in Cebu, it would still be just as good eaten with dukot and ginamos (or gipusil-- ginamus na gi pusan ug sili). Eaten with the hands, the ambience is really still there. But what if you're many miles away and outside the window, the snow is pouring like cotton balls. If it were not for hot flashes heating me up, I would probably be back snuggling in my bed.
So finding myself in this predicament, and thinking that my grandchildren will be hungry in a few minutes, I mustered up courage to take out all the leftover chicken, veggies, seasonings and all. Time to be creative now and we also need to clean out the fridge since New Year was coming in a couple of days, and we wouldn't want leftover Christmas food to still be there.
I saw some Jamaican curry in the shelf, so I was thinking of making chicken curry. But no potatoes, no coconut milk--can't use the 2%fat milk since am in no mood for any dairy now...Oh well! here's to my version of a curry noodle kaboodle:
left over chicken pinched into pieces
left over carrots, green cabbage etc..
onion
sotanghon noodles and canton noodles
jamaican curry
salt pepper
oil
chicken broth or (chicken cube dissolved in water)
saute onion, add in chicken and carrots
mix in the curry and broth
boil for 5 minutes
pour in the noodles until soft but not mushy
turn of the fire
pour in leafy veggies and season with salt and pepper
if too dry, put in a little olive oil and pepper
serve
this is the curry i used.
