Minced Pork With Salted Fish & Sauteed Zucchini For Dinner.

On this particular morning, we didn't go for our morning walk because I have to send hubby to the railway station to catch the train to Kuala Lumpur. 
This view (7.30 am) greeted me when I opened the gate to reverse the car.
It was a day trip and I was at the railway station in the evening (6.30 pm) to pick him up.
The train was delayed and I took a walk in the park in front of the station. I walked over to check the Ipoh tree, newly planted to replace the one that was uprooted by a storm.
The tree was planted on the 21st Feb. 2018.

Hubby came back from K.L. with some "mui heong" salted fish. A friend brought the salted fish all the way from Kuantan as a gift.
I used some of the salted fish to cook the next evening's dinner.
Steamed minced pork with "mui heong" salted fish.
I mixed the minced pork with a little sesame oil, Chinese cooking wine, cornflour, a little water, and a little oyster sauce. I cut the salted fish into small pieces, placed them on the minced pork and topped with ginger strips 
Sauteed yellow zucchini and carrot with dried shrimps and garlic.
This is the first time I have seen and cooked a yellow zucchini.
The zucchini was given by friend who visited a vegetable farm.
When there is a salted fish dish, we need to have rice to go with it.

The following picture are for joining Good Fences.
We passed by this zinc sheet gate and chain link fences on our way to visit a friend.
Trying to prevent passers-by like us from having a clear view?

Linking to Good Fences.

None of us can hold back our spirit from departing.
None of us has the power to prevent the day of our death.
There is no escaping that obligation, that dark battle.
And in the face of death,
wickedness will certainly not rescue the wicked.
(Ecclesiastes 8:8, New Living Translation-NLT)

  2. Your food looks so good! The rusted metal fence probably looks worse than what's behind it.

    That gate and fence does block the view quite well, makes me wonder.

    1. Thank you, Paul! They do not use cod fish for salted fish because it is too expensive.
