Chinese New Year in a not so chinese place

Happy CNY to everyone! Gong xi fa cai and have a great year of the rat. Phew, i'm in my second cycle of the zodiac already. I took half day leave on CNY eve and did some spring cleaning of my room. Since my room's quite small and i clean it every week, spring cleaning was quite fast and the rest of the day was free. then i decided to be adventurous and i made this


Unglaubich!!

I cannot express in words how that tiny little piece of slightly burnt meat made me sooooooo damn happy!!! All that 45 mins of staring at the oven and constantly turning the meat and all the while smiling to myself.... Pure bliss i tell you... simply heavenly!!

Anw, i had a pre CNY gathering with the Stuttgarters and one Karlsruherin at my place last sunday. We had a feast of rice, curry, Fried Chicken(yes really!!), rosti and also improvised Yu Sheng! I must say that the fried chicken was really quite good. Crispy and tender and juicy! Gracias to Kanna for it! (and to my ikea wok too!)
