Malcolm loves this cereal. You know, this lil fler. He doesnt really like to eat much. He’s already two years old, and still prefers to tag onto my breast, sigh. This is why i buy him this Greenmax Yam Multi Grains Cereal each time i go to the organic shop. He wont eat this each day. Sometimes, he can finish the whole bowl of cereal. If not, Gordon will eat everything for him.
I love this Greenmax Yam Multi Grains Cereal too as it contains a lot of vegetables. It’s a complete meal all on its own. Sometimes, i will add some organic sesame oil to it. Once in a while, i will add a little Marmite to it for added flavor. Eaither way, both my kids likes to eat this Greenmax Yam Multi Grains Cereal very much.
This is how the packet of Greenmax Yam Multi Grains Cereal looks like. Do give it a try. It’s a great and convenient snack. Better than eating instant noodles when hungry, eh. A packet of 16 sachets only costs Rm16 or so. Nutritious and delicious.

This Bitter Gourd with Spare Ribs and Dates Soup is a hot favorite with my family. Bitter gourd has many health benefits. It contains a mixture of flavonoids and alkaloids which stimulates the pancreas to produce insulin that controls the blood sugar levels in diabetics. If you are a diabetic, then bitter gourd soup is good for you.
You will need one bitter gourd, 5 large red dates, 5 large dried oysters and spare ribs. You can use chicken if you want to. It’s easy to prepare. Rub spareribs with some salt and set aside. Cut the bitter gourd into half, and scoop the spongy insides out with a spoon. Wash it and cut into bite size pieces. Cut the dates and remove the stones. Wash the salt from the spare ribs and blanch with hot water. I do this to remove the “porky” taste from it. Final step, put everything into the crockpot and put on high for a few hours.
And this is how the Bitter Gourd with Spare Ribs and Dates Soup looks like when served. The soups is clear, not cloudy. The bitter gourd is soft and not bitter at all. The dates and dried oysters add sweetness to the soup. Smells heavenly too. Go on. Make this for dinner tomorrow, ya. Hope you like my Bitter Gourd with Spare Ribs and Dates Soup recipe.

I dont have much time to cook today. My mother-in-law told me she bought some pork spareribs (the soft bones type) this morning. About 600gm or so. I also found a large radish in the vegetables section of the fridge, and a packet of beancurd too.
At first, i thought of making soup with the radish and spareribs flavored with some dried oysters and red dates. But i know how much hubby loves beancurds and decided to make stew instead. It’s way faster and i only need to cook ONE dish, lol.
With my mother-in-law’s help, i put everything into the crockpot in no time. First, rub the pork ribs with salt and leave for about ten minutes or so. Remove the skin and seeds from the radish and cut into small pieces. Next, chop up some garlic and peel and onion or two. As for the beancurd, i did not cut them up.
Wash the salt from the pork ribs and blanch them in hot water to remove the “porky” smell and taste. Place all ingredients into the crockpot and add just enough water to cover the top of everything. Next add soya sauce and some oyster sauce to it. I added a dash of black pepper into the pot before i closed the lid.
I put the crockpot on high. It’ll be ready in a few hours. Since i cooked it before i left the house this afternoon, it’s ready by the time i reached home at around 4pm. I gave some to my kid when he came home from school and he loved it. Hubby had no complaints. I love it too.
I find that it tastes better if you add a dash of soya sauce to it when you eat it. Best taken with a bowl of hot rice. I am downloading Moonlight Resonance Episode 29 now and will be enjoying it with a hot bowl of this delicious Stewed Pork Spareribs With Radish And Beancurd. Moonlight Resonance is quite interesting, you know. You all following this TVB Drama Series?

We took the kids up to the Foodcourt for some fun before having dinner at Black Canyon. Gordon only played for a while and laid down on the play area. I took him back to the seat and let him play with his PSP whilst we waited for hubby and Malcolm. Didnt take long as he found a car lying around and picked that up. We waited for a while and as no one came to claim it, we let him have it.
I dont think Gordon can stomach anything. not that i want to since he’s still running a temperature. We ordered something from their Set Dinner Menu priced at Rm12.95++. I had Spaghetti with Chicken Hot Basil, whilst hubby had Green Curry Rice with Chicken. Both comes with Hot Tom Yum Soup and Ice-cream. To be honest with you, i cant really remember the names of the dishes we had. But they are more or less like that, lol.
Black Canyon is the only decent place for dinner as far as Jusco is concerned. The foodcourt was jam-packed earlier as the time we were there coincided with the Breaking of Fast. Almost every table we walked past had food on it with Muslims waiting for Masuk Waktu Imsak and Masa Berbuka Puasa. After dinner, we bought what we needed to buy and hurried back home as Gordon wasnt feeling too well.

It did not rain today. But my kid is having a fever. Didnt leave the house. Prepared light meals for everyone. Gordon has Organic Chasoba with Sesame Oil and Kikkoman Sauce. Malcolm had a few spoonfuls of his brother’s food. Both hubby and i had instant noodles and poached eggs. That’s all.
When the kids were having their noon nap, i remembered the packet of Simplot Potato Wedges inside the freezer and baked some for tea. Squeezed some Kyupi Mayonaise, mustard and tomato sauce to go with it.
It’s all gone now. Going to buy some when the kids wake up. I’m not in the mood to prepare another meal. Will eat out tonight. Most likely go shop at Jusco and eat there too. Now, what shall i eat there?
