Couscous in a bowl

Back to cooking for this weekend at least. Decided to make some Turmeric Couscous topped with Pan Seared Yellow Pin Tuna with Cream Tabasco Sauce and Feta Cheese.

In a skillet, Pan Seared Sliced Sashimi Tuna (seasoned with Black Pepper, Dried Basil, Dried Rosemary and Salt) in 1tbsp Olive Oil.  Cook until golden brown / light brown.

In a sauce pan, Cook 4tbsp of Couscous and 4tbsp of Mixed Vegetables (optional) in 1 cup of water under low heat. Add dash of Turmeric, Garlic, Black Pepper, Basil. Simmer. Add 1tbsp Butter. Mix and add Sliced Tomatoes and Onions. Cook for 5 minutes. 

In a clean pan, Melt 1tbsp butter, add 50ml All Purpose Cream. Mix. Season with Garlic, Salt, Black Pepper and Oregano. Mix and add 1tbsp Tabasco Sauce.

Easy peasy :) Just add Feta Cheese on top of the Cream Sauce. Bon Appetite!

PS Broccoli and Shrimps were boiled with no added spices. Salad was the Potato Salad that I made a few days ago.

I'm not good when it comes to using ovens. But this particular dish was something that I learned while I was staying with my Aunt in Sweden. They usually like baking/ oven cooking their food than frying and I do understand why because too much fried food is unhealthy and so I'm trying to remember how she prepared baked salmon and chicken. And since today is no meat day for us Catholics - it was a great idea to be making this. 

Lately, I've been posting foodie stuff on here - well, it's too obvious that I've been bored and had been trying to practice the skills that I thought I wasn't capable of some 9 years ago but here I am, I am able to prepare dishes that looks fantastic and at some point taste fantastic (not diggin' sure but bet it's really good).

I hope one day, I can invite friends over and cook some of these platter meals to them. It'd be fun. So, enjoy and I hope that this recipe helped. And PS, I really like the red bell pepper thing. Been hooked to it since I tried it in Manila a few months ago.
