HOMEBOUND FOOD... dinner meal with 2 dishes and a soup were cooked on the day we arrived back from Penang. Opened the fridge and managed to create the below dishes for dinner... nothing spectacular, the usual norm from their childhood days. I have yet to create new dishes, I guess I never will.... LOL... My dishes I know are normally "hand-me-down recipes" from my mother's time and no matter what and how I do, I could never cook the same taste as what my mom did. Now thinking back, I should have stand beside my mom when she was doing the cooking last time....
TABLE FOR FOUR... We had our own reunion Chinese New Year dinner on Monday evening.... we made a simple one, just hot pot at home. All we have to do is to clean the vegetables, get everything defrosted... and the hot pot boiling with a packet of seasoning. They sell a lot of hot pot seasoning over here, from tomato soup to shrimp and chicken soup, I just threw in the whole packet of paste. No doubt not so healthy but it is so easily done.... As usual, Chinese New Year won't be CNY without a plate of Loe Sang... No crackers so I put in a few pieces of Tacos... LOL... Most important is the sauce.... The apricot, plum sauce and honey makes it right.... And our dishes for the evening..... We ate too much shrimps the day before so we omitted for this evening.... Simple and yet satisfying meal for our Reunion Dinner....
Your home cooked dinner is delicious! I love to eat all the dishes. The coffee table is so big to be able to put so many dishes. Your fridge also can keep so many ingredients to cook these dishes.
