I haven't seen them all, but I told everyone in my circle to please watch The Amazing Maurice. It's a good adaptation, not a great one, but if enough people would go and watch it legally, there's a higher chance more adaptations will come and it could be a win for all.

Please give The Amazing Maurice a chance. He only needs one. Or two.

I'd just jump it. You can add them directly to the pan or wok. As to when, the question is how you want the end texture to be. When you put frozen food into a pan, the first thing they'd expel is water. So if you want a dry dish, put them in the beginning to dry them out. If it's a saucy dish, you can put them at a later point.

Maybe they seem to go bad quickly because there's no added preservative :D Having said that, I made this Korean marinade two weeks ago - gochujang, garlic, chili peppers, an apple, soy sauce. I put it in a jar and we haven't been using it as much as we could. I've been expecting it to go bad, ferment, or grow mould for a while, but it's still good. I think it's all the salt acting as preservative? I really don't know.

Oh yes, his recipes are good. They're not flashy, but they're usually perfect for my pantry. I'm also happy he's now ventured into using East Asian and SE Asian ingredients, like miso and fish sauce.

Here's my favourite salad: Juice two oranges and half a lemon, put in a big bowl. Thinly slice three apples, immediately put the slices in the bowl with the citrus juice. Grate 1 cm of ginger if you like it, mix in. Add in cooked beluga lentils, however much you want. It stays crisp for about three days in a good fridge. I tend to use a mandolin to slice the apples, so they're chip sized - smaller pieces get soggy quicker.

It's also great as a side dish.

I didn't buy that because of Apple was so opaque about the mini's battery size. I understand that modern chips require more energy, but damn it if I don't miss my old dumb phone that could last three days on a single charge.

I settled on Pixel 5 because it's the sweet spot between small-ish and enough battery.
