Lunch

[buds]

Desserts:

Buds, I m on diet leh. Hahaha.. I fixed soba noodles tdy with chicken nuggets and my p1 ds said, wah, mama is the best cook! Ha, if I can cook like you, he won't want to eat outside Nasi lemak anymore. Hahaha.


I used to goreng the sambal Tumis , then spent the whole afternoon cleaning up the kitchen. Now very tired to do it liao. Then my good Malay neighbour gives me little tubs of the sambal now and then.

Eh,your family so blessed to have a good cook at home! And your presentation is so nice! I m very inspired

Yes, the slow frying of sambal tumis does take a long time and oh my the mess afterwards... :faint:

They sell ready-made sambal at the market. Indian or Malay stalls in neighbourhood markets have it these days. Looks like this pic below.

But since your good Malay neighbour gives you tubs now and then, i suppose that's fantastic. Envy. :please:

As for sambal belachan.. if wanna make your own paste.. here's a link.

If you have FB account, a friend once shared with me that there is this account called 'Warung Makan' that sells the sauces and sambals that you can freeze.

How did you get your boy to eat pumpkin? Mine doesn't even touch pumpkin.
He doesnt like porridge. Prefers heavy flavoured food. Just like DH.

What's Chinese apricot?

buds,

ur sambal vege looks spicy. Like the way u cut the long beans…i can’t do that,no patience

[Desserts]

Yo buds, thanks for the recipe. Sometimes, if I under fry the sambal Tumis, it turns out bitter . My good nieghbour says must goreng till oil comes out, that means must add quite a lot of oil. They have shifted out, so no more yummy for me :sad:


Your lunch looks so delicious! :drool:
I tried the buttered fish using cross sectioned ang zor fish, tweaked yr recipe a bit cos I didn't get that nice seasoning you mentioned, think I didn't put enough seasoning, so not tasty enough. Must try the butter fish again;)

Tonight s dinner, tea tree mushroom soup, jap curry chicken, and sweet potato leaves with white baits.

This hot and humid weather is really tak Boleh tahan

Can buy ready-made sambal tumis from any indian or malay stalls at the neighbourhood market, add in the veg (tau kwa : diced-cut, tempeh, long beans), optional prawns, sugar, salt and a tinge of ikan bilis stock. When cooked at home can go for seconds. At the stalls will be quite ex for complete meal. We are surviving on single income, so it is penny-wise to eat (more) from home.

Where do you keep your laundry when you cook the sambal? Won't the house smell of sambal? The cleaning up also another problem.
