How are you lovely readers?
I'm not feeling that flash right now actually I'm feeling flat that's why I wasn't able to write yesterday, haven't read many articles too so got loads of articles to read after I post this.
And because of this feeling, I thought about foods that I like whenever I'm feeling a certain mood. Everyone has their favorite food and drinks and everyone crave for something when they are feeling sick, feeling bored, when they watch a movie, when it's raining, we have these different cravings for different occasion or any random feelings that we have.
Foods I crave when I'm sick
I want something hot, something spicy, and something sour whenever I'm sick. It gives me comfort, it lightens whatever I'm feeling. And something sour is good when you have colds.
Pork in Green Mango Soup (Sinigang na baboy sa manggang hilaw)
The soup of this dish is originally made of tamarind soup but here in our house instead of tamarind, we use green mango as the base for our soup and we add lots of taro to make the soup thick. I love it more when it has so many vegetables (string beans, potato tops, ladyfinger, radish, winged beans, and squash flower), one dish that I like the vegetables more than the pork.
Hot and sour soup
This soup is a Chinese vegetarian soup. It is made from four kinds of mushrooms ( enoki mushroom, king oyster mushroom, shitake mushroom, and dried wood ear mushroom), bell pepper, carrot, tofu, and egg. The soup is a bit spicy and sour just like what its name says. What do I like about this soup? Its spiciness and sourness that make it soothing to the throat whenever I eat it aside from the fact that the dish is healthy.
I call these two dishes my miracle food because whenever I'm sick and I had it after a couple of hours I'm feeling good already.
Foods that can make my day.
These are the breakfast meals, my favorite meal of the day. The most important meal of the day but I can let the day pass without it. If I need an upper and that the start of my day is a bit on the downside I make sure that I prepare these dishes but sometimes I also don't give in to these cravings in the morning.
Pancake and sausage
I loved pancakes, I loved it with peanut butter, with jam, with sausage, with bacon, or even a simple pancake with butter and maple syrup. But if I'm not in a mood to cook I just order the one from Mcdonald's or the fluffy pancake from David Food Orders that you can find on Facebook or you can just click the link.
Avocado Ham and egg open sandwich
I learned this breakfast meal when I was in Perth and fall in love with it. It's like an egg benedict style only it has avocado in it. It's a super breakfast that you'll never get hungry until 12 noon. Ingredients? Toast, butter, rocket herb, ham, avocado, and poached egg. Sometimes when a rocket herb is not available I replace it with spinach or lettuce. Sadly I can't find my picture of it. But if one of these days I can buy avocado I'll make one and will definitely share it here with you.
TOCILOG (Tocino, Fried rice and egg)
Tell me who doesn't love this dish? It is one of those favorite Pinoy breakfasts. The tocino, sinangag and sunny side up egg half-cooked without salt but with ground pepper, yep I don't like it when its overcooked and the sides are burnt. I like scrambled egg on it too but same with sunny side up I want it without salt but with ground pepper. Don't forget the spicy vinegar for the dip.
Food that I crave when I'm watching movies
I'm not a chip or crisp junkie. I'm more into cakes, donuts, burgers or sandwiches when I'm watching movies. Nope, no popcorn too, I have an allergy to it, I even don't like the smell of it it gives me headaches.
Donut
Any donut will do as long as it's with coffee and yes I do have black coffee when I pair it with donuts.
That is some of the food that I crave at a certain time but yes still have a lot more to share but my eyes don't want me to type anymore and it already wants to sleep.
What about you guys? what are the food that you crave when you are sick, watching movies, or just chillaxing? Hope to read your one of these days.
