杂菜

"杂菜" is a pretty common dish in my house. But cooking it, yesterday is the first time. Since this is one of Dear's favourite dish, I cannot throw my "杨家的脸" so before cooking, I called back to ask my personal Shifu, My Mum!! =P

It was a pretty easy dish, so do try it as it taste very nice!!

Don't you feel like eating it just by looking at my pictures?!?!

Ingredients:

Cabbage

Mu Er (Soak in water)

Chicken wings

Dong Fen

Dou Jiang (Smash the dou Jiang)

Garlic

Method:

1) Marinate the chicken with soya sauce, pepper and oyster sauce. Leave in the fridge for 1hr if time allows

2)Heat some oil in the pan and fried with some garlics.

3) Once the garlics smell is out, put about 1 tbsp to 2 tbsp of dou Jiang in. (Depends on the quantity and how salty you want it to be). Fry together with the garlic.

4) Put the chickens wings in and fry till almost cook. Put cabbage in and mix them before putting the mu er.

5) Put some water in. (Chicken stock will be better. I don't have so i put chicken cube)

6) Put in the dong fen

7) Let it boil until the cabbage and meat is really soft. (Add more water if you like more sauce)

8) Seasonings will really depend on individual. If you want it more salty add oyster sauce and soya sauce.

9) We really like our cabbage soft so I boil them for about 1 hour

Easy right?? Enjoy the dish!

The Unexpected Weekend Getaway!!

Friday, we took the early noon flight to Bali to accompany Alfred's Uncle. As he is going back on Sat, we extend our stay for 1 more day so we got some time alone over there.
And how can we miss Mr Alfred's favourite BBQ Seafood At Jimbarang Beach. We went there few years back and i still vivd remember that the food is very nice too.

As is still pretty early when we reach there, we went to Hotel Intercontinental for a walk. This hotel is really very nice with its own blocked beach. Which mean you will not find people walking to you selling things and is not crowded with too many local people. A nice hotel but Expensive as well!

SunBathing before dinner

Why Jimbarang beach bbq food is nice?!? First is the scenery. As you will be able to enjoy the beautiful sunset while having dinner! So be sure to reach there early to enjoy this. If you are late, it will be so dark that i think is difficult to see what you are eating.


When Alf is here, he will always go to this BBQ store call Menega Cafe. Reason behind is because this store uses digital weighing scale. So perhaps more accurate and they won't cheat on you.
** That is our main course , lobster!! **

** Clockwise - BBq lobster, Sambal Kangkong,, BBq sotong, BBq Clams and BBq Prawns **** Some photos of us at jimbarang beach**
The only sad thing for this trip is I did not get to do any spa or massage!! Sob....

Cheesecake Factory 2

Yesterday after dinner, Dear and I went to Cheese Cake Factory for our dessert. It been a long long time since we went there already.

So of course the must order dish is the Chocolate fondant!! The best of all!

Dear ordered his favourite Latte and a Chocolate cake that is not nice at all.

Oh well, although is so sinful after eating the desserts but i guess once in a while should not be much problem bah!! =P

Mee Goreng

In order to used finish the left over yellow noodles and dou ya that is lying in my fridge, i decided to cook mee goreng for dinner.

Is a very easy dish! Even the ingredients are simple things that you can find easily in the fridge or supermarket.

Just fried with dou ya, tou gan, egg, meat or prawns and tomatoes.

Then the seasoning is tomatoes sauces, chilli sauces and soya sauce.

Ta dah, then you will have a delicious Mee Goreng!!
