So I’m still doing the udon noodles thing. As I was driving home from work today I was chatting with Mum and explained the meal at XO Restaurant Narrabundah and how I made garlic prawns and bacon with udon noodles. She said she didn’t like them because they were too thick however she thought the concept of Asian bolognese was really interesting.
I had a pretty good day at work although I have a splitting headache because of my lingering persistent cough after my bout of ManFlu last week. I wasn’t really in the mood for anything fancy for dinner. I wanted something quick and easy. Given how simple it was to prepare the udon noodles from the other night and given the amount of Atlantic salmon I have the refrigerator, it was a simple decision to make some noodles with the salmon.
