Barley Ginkgo Dessert & Steamed Fish With Rice Porridge

After breakfast, I stopped at a roadside stall to buy barley and bean curd sheet because I wanted to boil barley ginkgo sweet drink. This special type of bean curd sheet is for boiling with barley.

I took out the ginkgo nuts from the fridge, cracked and peeled the nuts. Then I cut the nuts into half and removed the shoot from inside the nuts.
Boil washed barley, bean curd sheets, ginkgo nuts and water together over low fire until the barley expanded and bean curd sheet melted. Remember to leave the cover slightly opened in case the content boiled over. Then add sugar according to your taste.
We had kaya spread on bread and barley ginkgo sweet drink for lunch.
(Kaya is coconut milk+sugar+egg jam).

Home cooked dinner.
Sauteed Chinese or napa cabbage and carrot with garlic.
My neighbour gave me a fresh water fish (white whisker's cat fish or pak soh koon in Cantonese). I used it to steamed with Sichuan salted vegetable, ginger, chili, garlic and spring onion).
Plain rice porridge for dinner.
I saw this mini or toy carousel at the Kapitan Kongsi Hotel in Malacca.
Blue Plumbago from my garden.
This bush needs constant trimming to keep it in shape.


The sinful nature wants to do evil,
which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants.
And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite
of what the sinful nature desires.
These two forces are constantly fighting each other,
so you are not free to carry out your good intentions.
(Galatians 5:17, New Living Translation-NLT)

    1. Thank you, Angie. I usually use salted veggie but there was none in the house. I found Sichuan pickles, so I used it instead of salted veggie.
