My mom buys these pork trotters for me occasionally. They are definitely meatier than the usual ribs that i used to ask her to buy. Being a somewhat lazy cook, i prefer to let the oven do the cooking than me slaving over a hot stove. Having marinated the pork overnight in soy sauce, i place them on a bed of cut potatoes, carrots and tomatoes. Dribble oil, soy sauce, Chinese rice wine and honey all over. Bake at 230C for about 30 – 40 minutes, turning them every 10 minutes.
And this is dinner. Great with rice, or some noodles.

FIL brought crabs back from the wholesale market this morning. I’ve been living here for more than a decade. Guess this is only the second or third time i’ve seen him bring crabs back. Fish and prawns are the norm. Since he had angioplasty last year, prawns are no where to been seen either, haha. FIL did everything from cleaning to cooking the crabs.
By the time hubby and i entered the kitchen, everything is already cooking in the wok. We only went about adding eggs into the mixture and tasting.
And this is the final result. It’s good. According to FIL, this could easily fetch Rm150 at any seafood restaurant. Arent we just lucky to be in the seafood business

I woke up with a grouchy 8yo this morning. The other front tooth of his is loose and he doesnt like it. As i was preparing fried rice for their lunch, he walked in and declared he doesnt want rice today. He then took out a packet of rice vermicelli and i cooked that with some marinated minced pork for him instead. I remembered seeing a friend preparing cheese omelet for breakfast a while ago and that gave me an idea is to what to put into his lunchbox for recess later on.
And so, tadaa…. Gordon’s getting Cheese Omelet hor-pau-dan styled for recess today. Crunchy on the outside with all the cheesy goodness all wrapped up inside. I’ll skip the mayo and top it with ketchup for him instead. He can have it with a few packets of those dried Japanese seaweed. Heavenly, eh. I dont think he’ll object to this at all!
