Salted Eggs, Stuffed Home Grown Eggplant & Bitter Gourd

We woke up early and were out of our house for the morning walk at about 6:30 am. 
Grateful for the bright light that brightens up the streets for us.
That is hubby walking ahead of me while I was taking some shadow shots.
We each had a metal stick. The stray dogs are smart. When they see us holding stick, they stay away.
Testing out the pathway that nobody seems to be using. For the time being, we prefer to walk where there is less crowd.

Breakfast with friends.
We took our friends to Restoran 1010 for Hor Hee noodles. We couldn't get a table for 4 people so we have to take 2 small tables.
I love to add bird's eye chilies to my noodle.
~~~~~
I received a call from a friend to collect some durians from her house.
These are hill durians which her husband bought and kept some for us.
The colour of the durian flesh may be pale but the taste is good.

Home cooked dinner
I made stuffed eggplant (white brinjals) and white bitter gourds with minced pork mixed with fish paste.
I used the excess minced pork + fish paste mixture to make patties.
Steamed white eggplant or white brinjals.
Serve it with dried prawn sambal.
I cooked 2 home made salted eggs. These 2 are from the 2nd batch home made salted eggs. One egg turned out very nicely. The 2nd one didn't look good, probably the egg was not fresh. Taste wise, it was not as nice as the other good egg.
For dinner, I boiled rice porridge. We finished the steamed eggplant and salted eggs.
Kept most of stuffed eggplants, stuffed bitter gourd and patties for next day's dinner.

Linking to Good Fences.

He personally carried the load of our sins in his own body
when he died on the cross so that we can be finished with sin
and live a good life from now on.
For his wounds have healed ours!

  8. Do the dogs attack people without sticks? Where did you buy the metal stick? So sad to know the dogs must have been beaten badly by the sticks before to know that they need to stay away from the sticks.

    1. Some dogs might attack but most will just bark and attempt to come near. Dogs are smart. Our metal sticks are actually unwanted old golf sticks that hubby improvised as walking sticks.

    2. Oh, very good to reuse the golf sticks as walking sticks.

  10. Wow! I love your homemade ytf, especially the brinjals. I can just eat the steamed brinjals plain just like that without the sambal. So tasty! I guess the pale salted eggs are not salty so you can finished eating them. They are not that salty, right?

    1. Actually the pale salted egg is more salty than the red yolk one.

    2. Oh, that's surprising. I would have thought pale is not that salty.

  17. How glad i am that i checked again, i thought i had already commented, but did not.

    That's good to know that the dogs stay away when they see you can defend yourself. Most dogs do not attack, but you cannot be too careful.

    Wonderful meals!

    1. You are right, most dogs do not simply attack us but you will never know in case one will decide to do so. Happy weekend.
