I had some leftover basmati rice so we made fried rice and used omlette strips in it for protein. I cooked the beaten eggs in a greased cast-iron skillet. I'd lightly fried some chopped fresh garlic and then poured in the beaten eggs and cooked them until they were hard set and then flipped them onto a board and cut them in thin strips.
Then I regreased the pan and fried a minced shallot, some green peppers, carrots and snow peas and then added the egg strips and some light soy sauce and a few shakes of hot sauce. The dish tasted great.
I finished the book "Iranian Rappers and Persian Porn" by Jamie Maslin. Iran sounds like a wonderful place to visit. The country has old castles and temples that go back centuries. They even have graffiti from soldiers at some ruins and fortifications that came, conquered and were later conquered by others. Now I am reading "Where Men Win Glory, the Odyssey of Pat Tillman by Jon Kraukauer. The one Amazon reviewer says its a good story to read as fiction. I tried to read "Boots On The Ground" by his mom, Mary Tillman and it bogged down. I've always been interested in the Tillman story. He was so good looking. I first saw the story when I was contracting at the Boston Globe and his looks stopped me in my tracks. The mystery behind his death made his story all the more compelling. His father raised him to be confident in what he did. According to Kraukauer, he was over confident, something I know nothing about.
