I _love_ leftovers, and even more than that I love mixing two leftover dishes. It's never a planned thing so much as practicality -- I have a little of this and a little of that, on their own not really enough to make a decent lunch, but together they're sufficient in size.
This time I had 3 leftovers. I cannot tell you how amazing it tasted. Nor can I really tell you what was in it, because I don't remember. But there was rice, some penne noodles, long noodles, veggies, veggie beef and loads of spices. All of this I fry up in a healthy amount of olive oil until some bits are a little crunchy.
By the end of it, the rice was mushing together and everything was mixing wonderfully.
If I ever had my own restaurant I would server but a few things:
• Super crunchy chicken strips
• Green tea (cold and hot, no sugar, the really bland watery stuff that mellows you out nicely)
• One leftover casserole dish.
That is, I'd cook up some dishes and then immediately fridge them and mix them up a day or two later and that's it. You want other choices? Get outta my resto. Naturally I'd go out of business within a week, either for lack of sales or some kind of fresh food bylaw, or both.
So it was a delicious meal. I was genuinely saddened when it was done, because it's not the kind of thing you can cook in one go. This was a meal not unlike an equinox.
