Steamed Dishes At Home

From Friday till Sunday, I only managed to cook one meal for my kids. The rest of the meals were taken outside... (actually they prefer to... that shows how "fan-tas-tic" my cooking is! Outside food is always tastier)

This meal below was on a Saturday evening, after our badminton session but before the table tennis workout at 8.30pm. Five of us walloped the food below, three of them growing boys so what I did was mostly meat.. chicken meat, pork meat and fish meat.. LOL... Filled them up to the brim so that no supper would be served that night...

steamed golden fish (kam cheong)

minced meat with arrowroots
(ching toong choi chu yuk nga ku)

steamed chicken

this one is a "kampong" chicken

ABC soup-potatoes, tomatoes & carrots

Should be enough, right?

    But of course, lately, started to make soup, cuz that kucing up there influenced me on how to be more lazy when cooking! Wakakaka!

  24. If I'm not mistaken, Merryn is a nyonya descendant, like me... usually nyonya food not steamed wan, Claire... perhaps that explains why we like food that has strong taste, aroma and generous with herbs and spices. LOL... you ask her and see... confirm Merryn will say she loves food that has strong taste. Hence... she would prefer fried food in comparison to steamed, like me. Fried food usually got more strong taste.
