Picturesque meals of female university lecturer
Even simple dishes in Ms. Thuan's hands become the most attractive thanks to the extremely beautiful presentation.
As a woman who loves her husband and children and is passionate about cooking, despite being busy with her job teaching English at Hanoi University, Ms. Nguyen Thi Minh Thuan still sets aside a certain amount of time every day to cook.
She always presents the rice dish in the most beautiful way possible, so that her two children and husband enjoy eating.
Even if it's just a plate of stir-fried or boiled vegetables, in her hands it can turn into a beautiful, vivid picture.
Ms. Thuan does not waste time decorating dishes. “I have some cutting molds when making cakes, which can be used to cut vegetables and fruits, so the trimming process is very quick. For me, arranging them on a plate does not take much more time than pouring them all onto a plate. Maybe because I do it so often, I am used to it.”
To get a plate of green vegetables, Ms. Thuan's secret is to turn on the stove at a very high heat, wait for the water to boil before adding the vegetables and boil them for the right amount of time. The principle of a delicious plate of vegetables is that the vegetables should not be too hard or too cooked.
On her family's dinner table, the vegetable dish is always the most beautiful and soulful dish. She knows that vegetables are an extremely important dish, helping to balance the nutrition in the meal. Thanks to this beautiful decoration, she never has to urge her children to eat vegetables.
She confided: "The meals are all simple dishes, rarely have delicacies, but all members of the family find them very delicious for many reasons. First, I always try to balance vegetables and protein. Second, the meals are always arranged in an attractive way. And most importantly, they suit everyone's taste."
“My two children are so grown up, there is no need to prepare real meals.cuteto entice me to eat but I still want to do so. My husband and children always wholeheartedly accept and support me so I have more motivation", Ms. Thuan boasted.
Feeling his wife's enthusiasm, whenever he has time, her husband cooks with her in the kitchen. It is a pleasure and also a very effective way to relieve stress for him. He does not directly decorate but always knows how to save her the ingredients to do so, such as a few sprigs of herbs, tomato peels to roll flowers...
The February 14th meal, like all other meals, is filled with love from Ms. Thuan for her small family.
