hey tigergrrl!

am bloomin starvin tho' as i am awaiting the arrival of BF before i could start cooking it.. i just hope it'll turn out ok as the extra soya to replace the ketcap manis has made the 'paste' v watery... hmmm, is the rice meant to be quite dry like in normal fried rice, or v moist for this dish? reason why i'm asking is that i haven't had it before, but am making it for BF as he's raved on about the one he has at work! traitor or what!!

The dish I make is slightly moist although I am not sure if this is the true consistency. But its luverly! So who cares.

sorry for the delay..

well, the dish didn't turn out the way that i had expected. apart from replacing some of the ingredients with ones i could find in my store cupboard, i found the experience rather disappointing. i didn't think the dish was v 'fragrant' as the chinese would say it. it was just like a chinese fried rice dish with a hint of spice in the background. maybe i should up the spice and make it again some other day... oh well, i'll live and learn!

i've made tonight's dinner in advance - i've made a lamb in mooli dish but spiced it up with 5 spice, star anise, soya and cumin. hopefully, this will be a success... i know i was meant to use beef brisket, but had a lamb in the freezer to use up.

just started making 2 soups - chicken feet & peanut soup and the other i can't really describe. it's got goji berries, pork ribs, chinese dates, dried mustard, clams and something that looks like soft brown semi-opaque berry (v sweet). the latter is made up. dunno how it'll turn out tho. the chicken feet one is what i've been craving for all week but only made a small one as it's not so interesting after half a bowl.

also, we're having seabass with springonion and ginger....

as there's just the two of us now (only child left for uni last yr - boohoo!) i sometimes have to make the effort to make more than one dish.

I made instant noodles (if you can call that cooking

) mixed with oyster sauce and dark soy sauce. This is only because I got home late from work.

I am now eating a questionable egg custard tart.

Zerochan · 9th February 2010, 12:06 AM

Sawpaw · 9th February 2010, 06:09 PM

Making a massive pot of chicken soup for my sick flatmate. She's been throwing up for most of the night and phoned in sick today. Luckily I'm on a day off so I popped out to get her some medicine and other bits.

Just call me nurse sawpaw!
