Yesterday morning, I could not sleep, so I decided to cook two large sauce pots (which I had to do anyway), which I will slowly consume over the coming weeks.
I usually make a general-purpose sauce which I can use for:
- Pizza 🍕
- Pasta 🍝
- Pizza Pasta 😋
- Jollof Rice 🍛
The whole process takes several hours, which predominantly features cutting up:
- Tomatoes 🍅
- Green peppers 🫑
- Spicy peppers 🌶️
- Carrots 🥕
- Onions 🧅
- More spicy peppers 🥵
I usually fry two pots of ground beef 🥩, but this time, I decided to use ground pork 🐖 in one of the pots, as I feared losing the latter to freezer burn (it had been frozen in the freezer for a while 😅).
I also added soy sauce to the pork pot due to a conference between my brain 🧠 & my tongue 👅 (translation: food intuition).
Overall, it turned out to be delicious! I then placed the pork sauce on pasta 🍝 I had cooked earlier (note: I need to make some more pasta!), then I placed shredded sharp cheese 🧀 on top (note 2.0: I need to shred more cheese!)
Overall, I am pleased with how this turned out, & depending on the price point, I will use ground pork again (food is expensive, which is why I meal prep nowadays).
