Stir-fried Udon Noodle 2



This is the udon noodle stir-fry in dark sauce. I want to recreate hokkein mee but I guess without the lard and crispy pork fat, the flavor is just not there. Furthermore, mine is too dry to be called hokkein mee. It's hard to watch the wok while cooking this because half way through, my daughter did something that called for some spanking action. Thus my sauce evaporated while me running around from one place to another. Oh well, but the result is still delicious though, got a head knock from both hubby and daughter.

Microwave Muah Chee



I used to make muah chee using the boiling method. It is also easy to make but not as easy as microwave muah chee. I saw this short-cut method posted at kitchencapers a while back and decided to give this a try.

It is definitely easy but the dough can be very sticky and difficult to handle. Taste good though!

Recipe from Gina at KC:

(A)
250g glutinous rice flour
375ml water
2 Tbp. shallot oil

Mix (A) in a Pyrex bowl and microwave on High for 7 mins. Cut into tiny pieces using a kitchen scissor and drop it into the peanuts and sugar mixture. Coat well and serve immediately.

(B)
250g peanuts, toasted and grind
50g sugar

Mixed (B) together to create peanuts and sugar mixture.

Oops! I think my peanuts is not fine enough, should have processed it more. :P

LOOK! LOOK!

The baby in my ticker has moved to the last one!! Hahaha.... Finally I'm at the final stage, one month to go, 30 days to go, wow! but hopefully this one will decide to come out early instead of later.

My Ob will start doing internal exam next week and I will know whether I have made any progress or not. Last time, I didn't make any progress at all with Evy but at 37 weeks, I was 2cm dilated and 60% effaced. But then again this didn't really mean anything because I was still 2cm and 80% effaced until my due date, at 40 weeks before I had her. So, we never know, the baby will come out when she pleases.

Getting a bit excited now because she can come as early as in two weeks time (hoping!) or as late as in four weeks time. Not sure who she looks like, can't wait to find out! Also hoping three of us can cope with this new arrival well and the transition into a family of four will be smooth and uneventful.

Cassava Kuih


Made this cassava kuih (kuih bingka ubi) using adapted Agnes Chang's recipe.




This recipe has the rough texture and thus you can taste the cassava in it. I used the frozen grated cassava easily available in the frozen section at asian grocery stores. I have changed this recipe into cups measurement.
