Just to let you know,
Rosie has been eating actual meals.
We had a hankering for stir fry
last night, so here's what I made.

I found a small fillet mignon in the freezer,
let it thaw slightly,
then Mr. Hawthorne made very thin slices.
When you want to slice meat very thinly,
let it freeze slightly,
or in this case,
let it thaw a bit.
My other ingredients:
broccoli,
carrot,
onion,
pepper,
and baby corn.

For the thickening sauce,
I made a cornstarch slurry -
equal parts corn starch and cold water,
and I added in
some Worcestershire sauce
and Tamari.
And that little frozen block
in the cup on the left
is a frozen chunk of VEAL STOCK.

First, I stir fried the broccoli.

Added in the carrots.

Add in some corn.

And the onions and peppers.
Stir fry until broccoli is just barely tender.
Then transfer vegetables to a bowl
and cover.

Heat the wok back up,
add in some oil,
and toss in the meat.
Now, this is beef tenderloin,
so it just needs a few seconds.

I added the veggies back to the wok.

Then I added the cornstarch slurry/
Lea & Perrins/Tamari Sauce,
heating through.

And my little cube of frozen VEAL STOCK
went in.
