Had this salted crab when I was in JB and have been craving it ever since. It’s the wet kind, with sauce that you simply can’t resist dipping man tous into. Decided to try recreating the sauce but with prawns instead since slaughtering and cleaning crabs is kind of daunting for me.


10-15 large grey prawns
2 salted egg yolk
1 stalk of curry leaves
2-3 chilli padi
1 tablespoon butter
4-5 tablespoons evaporated milk

Steam the egg yolks and mash them.
Deep fry the prawns (I did not do that but I prefry them till about 3/4 cooked)
Melt butter and fry the curry leaves and chilli padi till fragrant. Incorporate the egg yolks, stir in the evaporated milk. Add salt to cater to you taste and stir in prawns.

I burnt the butter a little so did not manage to get the true fragrance of the curry leaves out. Turned out quite ok, though still not as yummy as the sauce I had in JB. Guess cannot compare, big fire and big wok against my little stove, how to fight. But in a crunch, still pretty tasty.

I would like to share my grilled salmon. I think the trick to cooking salmon, try to cook on the same day that you buy, so that it is fresher. I read from some website before, usually salmon will taste nicer if cooked on the same day.


Ingredients:
1 piece of salmon
1/2 lemon
salt
sesame oil
freshly grounded black pepper
1 orange
2 teaspoon of sugar
1 tablespoon of corn flour

Steps:
Step 1:Marinate the salmon with salt, sesame oil, black pepper lemon and orange.
Step 2:Put the salmon aside for at least 1 hour.
Step 3:Grill the salmon on LOW for about 12 minutes.
Step 4:Bash the salmon with the leftover marinate occasionally.
Step 5:Heat up the wok, add the left over marinate and sugar.
Step 6:Add a bit of water into the cornflour, mix well, and pour into the wok slowly to thicken the sauce.
Step 7:Either pour the sauce over the salmon or put the sauce aside for dipping.

Really super duper simple. Took all of 5mins to prepare.

Silken tofu
sambal belachan
lime

Steam the tofu
Fry a teaspoon or 2 of the balachan in a little oil
Dump the belachan on the tofu and squeeze a lime and you have a tofu dish.

hee..I cooked curry last weekend and ended up with some leftover (approx 100ml) coconut milk. I was contemplating to use it to prepare dessert eg Green bean soup or bubor hitam. In the end, I used it to cook nasi lemak for lunch yesterday.
