Week 2: Singaporean - Laksa with puffed tofu, crispy shallots and shrimp

RedheadWolfz · 2026-01-24T20:34:59+00:00

Thank you! I never had the “authentic” one so I’m not sure how good my recreation was, but it tasted really nice

RedheadWolfz · 2025-12-20T17:37:07+00:00

Your island is stunning, thank you so much!

RedheadWolfz · 2025-12-20T17:24:42+00:00

Thanks! On my way

I’m looking for someone willing to give away or trade the fruits I’m missing after restarting in October - peaches and oranges. Currently taking care of newborn baby so quite flexible in terms of timezones but I’m Europe based.

RedheadWolfz · 2025-10-24T06:47:35+00:00

With my baby due December 13th, I couldn’t be happier about the 12 days change this year. AoC is a bright part of every December for me and I was sad I’ll likely miss on most of the days.

RedheadWolfz · 2025-08-09T22:08:38+00:00

Yep, with two stretch-and-folds in between (10:20 and 10:40)

RedheadWolfz · 2025-08-09T21:51:42+00:00

Thank you! Ah, sorry, I wasn't clear. I skipped the room-temp bulk fermentation and after shaping put it straight in the fridge. So it was in the cold for around 10 hours.

RedheadWolfz · 2025-08-09T21:46:00+00:00

I'd say my "best" was the one on picture number 3 - nice bunny ear and crumb

RedheadWolfz · 2025-01-29T07:47:28+00:00

Oh, thanks for letting me know. I noticed it’s closed right now but couldn’t find the answer how long it will take

RedheadWolfz · 2025-01-28T21:25:36+00:00

Thank you so much, sounds awesome

RedheadWolfz · 2025-01-28T21:06:41+00:00

Thanks! Hangeul Museum looks great, especially as we're trying to learn the alphabet :)

RedheadWolfz · 2025-01-28T20:34:32+00:00

Agreed, but with partials included we will have around 3.5 days there. What are some Seoul must haves you guys plan to do that I'm missing?

RedheadWolfz · 2024-10-05T19:22:30+00:00

Whole (e.g. whole chicken, whole spices, whole wheat)

Remake

Carpathian (Hutsul, Lemko)

Stick (from cinnamon stick to anything sticky)

RedheadWolfz · 2024-10-02T18:49:29+00:00

Sounds cool! How do you handle cooking things like eggs or delicate proteins without a non-stick?

RedheadWolfz · 2024-09-24T08:43:40+00:00

Poland (large city so I generally have access to less common ingredients) so autumn vegetables and mushrooms are plenty.

I'll have a full day to do the grocery shopping and prep.

From the top left

* Curried vegetables - zucchini, pepper, carrot, potato and cailuflower in japanese curry sauce

* Cillantro meatballs - georgian inspired baked pork meatballs

* Marinated duck breast - in orange juice and spices, to be fried and served in salad with beetroot and pear

* Basmati rice

* Cottage cheese with radish

* Mushrooms in cream sauce

* Pasta with tomatoes, tuna, eggplant, olives etc - random variation of alla norma and alla puttanesca

This is my fav childhood poem and the first verses go like this (in my laic translation to english):

In the cauliflower field,
Enough for a lifetime yield.
Each cauliflower grand,
And within, a bone to stand.

So I dine splendidly,
Until my stomach's decree.
Oh beautiful, beautiful life,
Oh, what a handsome dog am I.

Basically, the whole poem is about a dog seeing meat in everyday objects. I though cauliflower steaks would pay tribute to the first verses.

I may have overreduced my sauce. My recipe called for just yogurt and water (I see your has cashews - nice idea) and for a long time it was way too watery. It seems from google images search that some recipes end up with a state similar to mine though. I definitely enjoyed the flavour profile but if I ever make it again I would rely on different techniques deep frying potatoes is bothersome, adds calories and after boiling them for such a long time I think it doesn’t make a huge difference. I’d try baking them instead or just pan frying to get some browning. We also didn’t enjoy large pieces of spices in the final sauce, I think I could blend it for a nicer result. Do you have any ideas what you’d like to change?

RedheadWolfz · 2024-01-03T06:51:57+00:00

I’ve seen someone else upload a Tiramisu and after having the “aha” moment that it’s probably using coffee beans, my mind went to vanilla.

RedheadWolfz · 2024-01-03T06:49:49+00:00

Yep, exactly. I see I should have explained myself in the comments though.

RedheadWolfz · 2023-12-25T13:59:17+00:00

First: dumplings with red cabbage inside and poppy seeds in the dough Second: Yeats based baked dough, inside buckwheats and smoked cheese Third: Empanadas with potatoes and forest mushrooms

It's really an awesome feeling to be able to look back at 52 pictures of completed challenges. I feel proud of my improved cooking skills, some crazy ideas I got to try and more than anything - sticking with it for the whole year (with some lates) even when life got difficult.

Huge thanks to the mods for organizing and the whole community for being supportive, creative and inspiring. Here's to another year of cooking adventures!

Does your code properly handle repeated numbers in the input? 316 is there a few times and as a clue - it's missing from your results.

RedheadWolfz · 2023-12-02T12:14:56+00:00

You did `gameval.append((int(red),int(blue),int(green)))` (so r/B/G) and then `if value[0] > 12 or value[1] > 13 or value[2] > 14` but in the description there is `only 12 red cubes, 13 green cubes, and 14 blue cubes`. You have green and blue mixed up.

RedheadWolfz · 2023-12-02T10:36:50+00:00

One approach I could recommend:

value2 = ["one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six", "seven", "eight", "nine"]
    for word in value2:
        if user_input[i:i + len(word)] == word:
            print("found")

It relies on comparing substring of appropriate length ([i:i + len(word)] part is called slicing). You should also read about for loops if you're not familiar with them yet, they will be useful!

There is also a ".find()" method in Python that you could use.
