Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
Good food is wasted on kids honestly, they always want the most basic tasting food. My favourite way for broccoli is to toss it in oil, salt, garlic powder and pepper then roast in a really hot oven or bbq so it gets a bit charred all over. Gets a really nice nutty flavour to it.
Currently the youngest just wants whatever we’re eating. Sometimes she doesn’t even know what it is and immediately wants it when she sees us eating it 😂
Oh I love roasted broccoli!
We just cook what we want, but serve the parts separately. So with say korma or butter chicken then the rice is separate and the kids can just eat rice if they want. With stir-fried noodles, serve some of the noodles and veggies separate so they can pick the bits they want to try. Burgers and tortillas work well too, as they just put on what they want.
Over time the kids have come to enjoy most of our regulars, but again, never all the kids for any particular food 😆
