sounds delish, Enjoy!

I saw a young Chef on a Food Channel making OCTOPUS with curry sweet and spicy sauce. All of a sudden octopus has a comeback since meat is so expensive. BTW the guy used can octopus for his recipe. Ugh I didn’t know they sell canned octopus.

They do but it’s only good for stews and things. You can taste the can otherwise. Fresh or fresh/frozen is better if you can get it.

Has anyone tried making donuts or cinnamon rolls? I found the recipe for both of them. They came out delicious. My family loved them and my siblings demanded to make more.

If the question is for me: I can’t eat sweets. I’m pre-diabetic inherited by all my past generation. Although they added several recipes here that sounded so delicious I was drooling lol. The only sweets I can tolerate w/o getting very sick are fruits and they have to be sour like green mango, green grapes, etc…

The question was general but the phrasing was misguiding. :sweat_smile: I edited it just now.
I love eating very sour fruits as well. I’m the only one in my family and they think I have a weird taste :laughing:
So, you can try sweets but without sugar. Or sweets are completely forbidden?

Sugar makes me very ill I get sweating/ strong palpitations/fainting, panic attacks and confusion but it also has to do with my gastric bypass. The Dr who did the surgery (Bariatric Surgeon) explained that the small intestine can not absorb the sugar and it affects other organs and causes all this side effects. It’s been 14 years already. I can’t eat donuts, cakes, ice cream or soda, and when I do take a small bite or sip (which I do at least once a month); I forgot to mention I get severe vomiting. Total nightmare…

PS. Before the gastric bypass I had very bad diabetes and needed pills (I refused the injections) after the surgery I became pre-diabetic and was able to stop the METFORMIN pills.

I don’t miss the sugar so much since it makes me so ill, and those artificial sweeteners for some reason I dislike them so much bc I get a metal taste in my mouth, the few times I tried them and believe me, I have tried all of them. Once in a while, I’ll take a small bite of something sweet; as long as is not a big portion, I can tolerate.

One time I was craving for a CARVEL ice cream sunday (wacky Wednesday buy 1 get one FREE) I took 3 spoons and started driving, after a while I started sweating profusely, had palpitations, and had to pull to the side to throw up and that was many years ago. That was the first and last time, I bought a strawberry sunday from carvel. I don’t recommend that surgery to anyone. I used to at the beginning though.

In regards sugar replacement I think Stevia sugar (plant based) should work and birch sugar but small amounts as this is Xylit from alcohol sugar and can have a digestive impact such a bloating, gas and/or diarrhea.

Yea, he has to clean it. Each of those little suckers on the tentacles has toothlike circles that have to be removed and also to get grit and sand out of the tentacles. (I liked Mystic popup bar) :grin:

Oh! He’s a quick recipe! about 15 to 20 minutes tops.
Rice
Yangzee barbeque pork - thin slices https://d2d8wwwkmhfcva.cloudfront.net/800x/d2lnr5mha7bycj.cloudfront.net/product-image/file/large_8b0ead45-1131-4391-ab6c-d9def3c0e499.jpg
Hot Chinese style mustard
Sesame seeds
Veggies - whatever you want a couple of cups worth (It cooks down)
Sweet peppers - sliced into rings - https://whatscookingamerica.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Baby-BellPeppers.jpg
Garlic - minced
Soy Sauce - about a tablespoon of
Gochujang - 2 tablespoons or more (to taste) - https://www.google.com/search?q=gochujang&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS838US838&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi_utfO5rvqAhXeGTQIHfmqBI4Q_AUoAnoECBgQBA&biw=1340&bih=852

Get all the ingredients ready because the cooking time is pretty fast.

Get the rice cooking
Slice up some Yangtzee barbeque pork and serve with hot mustard and sesame seeds
Get the wok hot
Put in about a tablespoon of sesame oil
about a spoon of minced Garlic (Even vampires need SOME garlic :laughing:)
a bunch of veggies
add sliced pepper rings
stir fry that until it is a bit charred (Slight charring brings out the vegetable’s natural sweetness)
If too much water forms, move the veggies up the side of the wok to char slightlyand let the excess water boil down. Keep a little water for the sauce. Do NOT throw out the water, just boil it down.
add a couple of spoons of soy sauce. stir it around,
when the veggies are ‘al dente’ cooked but still firm, add a couple of spoons of GoChujang for taste and stir around till everything is hot.

Put the veggies in a serving bowl and immediately wash out the wok and re-season it. (Or it will get rusty)

Gochujang is a Korean hot-sweet spicy chili sauce that is really tasty. Yea, it is hot for newbies but I think it’s just tasty not very hot but then again, I grew up eating ‘burn your worms out’ HOT food.

That’s how they clean them? I always used the knife to remove the round things (we don’t eat those).

I’m writing down the ingredients bc I’m going food shopping tomorrow, and this recipe sounds like something i’d like to eat.

I got the soy sauce, sesame oil, and the rice. I need the rest. I’ll have to be careful with the spiciness bc of my gastric bypass surgery the Dr. warned me about eating spicy food can be dangerous. I’ll just use very little just in case. Thank goodness my area has so many Korean, Japanese and Chinese products (a bit pricey though).

Thanks for sharing!
