Ale's Goodbye Dinner

I made tuna cakes and the tangerine cake from my last post. The tuna cakes are very loosely based off this recipe from Martha Stewart. I used flour instead of breadcrumbs because I burned the bread when trying to bake it dry and gave up. We didn't have any cilantro so I used carrots which doesn't really compute but adds a nice dash of color. I made a green onion and yogurt sauce as well.

I use a quarter cup measuring cup to get a nice round shape for the cakes.

My mum picked up potstickers from "The Noodle City" our favorite Chinese restaurant in town because we were too busy to make our own potstickers. She got chicken and vegetarians ones. I'm particularly fond of these potstickers because the dough is especially thick. She made an avocado and spinach salad.

Joanna made a Korean dish that I think translates to the King's Dish. She followed an incredibly elaborate set of steps making the sauce to marinade the thinly sliced beef, chop the vegetables just so, and prepare the sticky chewy noodles. Interestingly she added sugar to the dried shitake mushrooms which was delicious and something I plan on trying later.
