Hi Natty! How are you today, Honey? I hope you are doing well, and keeping cool and calm during these busy days. It's Sunday over here today, and it has been an active day. Sundays are always busy for me. I cleaned my mother's bedroom in the morning, and in the evening I cut the grass.
I made fried rice vermicelli for dinner. I found a sample video for you of what it looks like. The shortest video: the concept is the same all around, what differs is the stuff you put in it. I had my raw rice vermicelli already soaking in water by the time I finished cutting the grass. Rice vermicelli comes dried. First I fried up a crude omelet. Not as crude as the guy above, mine actually looked like an omelet even though I planned to throw it back in and chop it up into the mix. Then I fried some chopped garlic then my stir fry mix, which is cabbage, Chinese cabbage, green beans and red hot chilli peppers. I dumped in the ramen broth I made the other day from a salted fish head and kelp, turned the heat to high, and let the veggies steam for a bit, then took them out with a strainer on a stick. That left just the broth, and I added some Mae Pranom (Siamese tamarind paste commonly used for tom yum) to it then the rice vermicelli. Stir it up and let it brew until the broth evaporates, then mix in the veggies and omelet. It was a heavy-handed effort since I just got done cutting grass and wasn't in any mood to cook, but it turned out successful. It didn't need any extra salt, the ramen broth carried the dish forward. That broth is good stuff. I have to use it for ramen someday.
