Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Halloween Decorations theme and Rainbow Chard


 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date.  Her theme is 'Halloween Decorations'.  Here is my piece, an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2").

My friend S dropped off some vegetables for me last month.  There was Rainbow Chard, kale, fresh beets, even some tomatoes from her garden.



This is my Rainbow Chard stir fry for the Dinner Date.  

I chopped the stems into 1/2" segments, the leaves into 1 1/2" segments. Then I sauteed the stems for 10 minutes in oil and minced garlic.  They were well softened, so I mixed the leaves in with my stir fry sauce for another 10 minutes. 

My stir fry sauce

2 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs dark soy sauce
1/4 c oyster sauce
1/2 tsp red pepper or chili flakes
1 tsp sugar

Your spider is a handsome sort ... a very cute Holloween Decoration. Your stir fry sounds very Thai ... as I have watched my DIL cook she often uses all of the ingredients you have included. I am guessing yours is a bit spicy where her will burn the nose hairs out of your nose, Ha! Anyway, I love your recipe and will try it if I can find the Rainbow Chard :) Hope you have a wonderfully spooky Halloween (and you are able to guess right when it comes to how much candy to have on hand for the trick or treaters :)

Love the Halloween painting. That rainbow chard meal sounds wonderful, but I would not add the pepper or chili flakes.
