Today, Malaysia celebrates her 53rd year of independence. Being Malaysian, a good way to kick start this memorable day would be to indulge in Nasi Lemak with Chicken Rendang, a truly Malaysian fare.
Was at my camp buddy’s house one day. And inside her spanking new kitchen, there’s this basket of Kan Sui Jung on her counter. These are the plain mini alkaline dumplings, around the size of a golf ball, or maybe smaller. We usually eat these with gula melaka. Some people love it with plain castor or granulated sugar though. How do you eat yours? With sambal belacan? LOL!
My sis bought me this Magic Steamed Cake recipe book for my birthday. She must have known the only oven i have at home is a small Philips Toaster Oven, lol. I used to have a bamboo steamer rack, but i cant seem to find it anywhere at all. Guess MIL must have thrown it away. That bamboo steamer rack is not cheap, sigh. Have to buy another from the kong-ngah-pou (place where you can get cooking items) near ex-Super Kinta.
Am having Sing Jau Mai for lunch at the foodcourt opposite my kid’s school now. It’s not too bad. Could have been better if it’s less salty. I seldom eat here anyways. I just order myself a drink and go online till it’s time to have recess with my kid. It’s a daily routine and i cant say if i’m okay with it or not. Just that if i dont do it, nobody else will.
