I used the remaining two-third of the frozen fish that my neighbour gave to cook for two days' dinner.
In order to cover the "fishy" smell of the fish slices, I marinated the fish slices with salt, sugar, and curry powder. Just before deep frying, I tossed the fish slices with potato flour.

1st day's dinner
This was 1st day's dinner for 2 people.
Omelette.
Crispy on the outside.
Sweet and sourish Thai chili sauce dipping for the deep fried fish slices.
Karela or small bitter melon soup boiled with carrot, red dates, gojiberry and pork rib.
~~~~~
2nd day's dinner
There were leftover omelette and fried fish slices from the previous day's dinner.
Just add 1 new dish - Steamed clams.
Good that we were able to finish all the dishes without any wastage.

From my garden.
My calamansi plant is flowering again.
The flowers give off a nice fragrance and the bees are back again.
I don't know what type of bees but they are small in size.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Gigi.
DeleteYour plates are beautiful, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gigi.
DeleteYour dinner meals are so luxurious. Oh is that the name cos I just call them small bitter gourds and there are two in my fridge now. What fish is that? Doesn't look like dory.
ReplyDeleteI was told its patin fish.
DeleteNice foods they appear delicious and almost bringing christmas closer, I like frozen fish too.
ReplyDeleteChristmas is just round the corner. It is going to be a quiet Christmas here.
DeleteI know but with delicious foods like you posted the quiet Christmas can be managed indoors.
DeleteThank you, Steve. That is possible.
DeleteNow that looks delicious. If I could I would come over for dinner :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Margaret. You are most welcome.
DeleteSo many dishes...but without rice, sure can finish!
ReplyDeleteI am usually the one who will finish the veggie.
DeleteInteresting and differernt for me
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
DeleteWhile i like curry, my Sweetie does not, so we always soak fish (when we have it) in milk and mustard. Now i will wonder if your way works better.
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely garden shots!
You can try once and see if your Sweetie likes it.
DeleteMmmm both meals look so good.
ReplyDeleteI have ordered the frozen patin off Shopee since you mentioned them in your previous post and didn't have negative comments hehe.
Lol! I prefer the patin to be deep fried. I don't know how else to best cook it.
DeleteMuy buenas tus comidas. Besitos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteNormally when my mom cooks, it is usually one homecooked soup and one main dish. I justt had daikon soup yesterday. Your homecooked soup and dishes look good, got clams some more.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, I will cook just the soup, sometimes more depending on my mood and also whatever that needs to be cleared fast.
DeleteBitter melon and winter melon are different?
ReplyDeleteYes, they are different. One has a bitter taste, and winter melon does not have bitter taste.
DeleteLooks like delicious meals!
ReplyDeleteYes, the bee you captured sure is tiny! I've never seen one that little before but I'm glad they have a place to feed.
Thanks for sharing your link at 'My Corner of the World' this week!
Thank you, Betty for hosting. Have a great new week.
