Boiled Chickpeas, Claypot Chicken Rice & Home Grown Long Beans

This was last Wednesday, the 6th day of MCO 2.0. We started off the day with a free breakfast.

 Curry noodle from our friend.
Boiled chickpeas for lunch and snack.
I washed and soaked the chickpeas overnight in the fridge.
Long beans harvested from my garden.
~~~~~
What we had for dinner.....
Hubby went out to takeaway (tapau) our favourite claypot chicken rice. Besides chicken, other ingredients include Chinese sausage and a small piece of salted fish.
While hubby went out to tapau, I sauteed the long beans with garlic and salt.
Garnishing from the previous day (leftover from the roast pork bone porridge), sambal dried prawns and bird's eye chilies in soy sauce.
Claypot chicken rice and sauteed long beans for dinner.
Sunrise at 7:40am
Sunrise at 7:50am.
From my garden: Baby Kaffir limes drenched with rain droplets.


For God's Word is solid to the core;
everything he makes is sound inside and out.
He loves it when everything fits,
when his world is in plumb-line true.
Earth is drenched in God's affectionate satisfaction.
(Psalm 33:4-5, The Message-MSG)

  2. Your long bean is really so very long. The curry Mee hoon looks so creamy and tasty. I don't think you both can finish all the garnishing during dinner. Did you?

  17. I always love seeing the long beans...I have another blog buddy that grows real long beans like those. I need to get some seed and try some. Just to see them grow.

    That looks like a bunch of baby limes!

    1. Yes, it is fun to watch the plants grow and fruit and of course to harvest and taste them.

  18. The soup in your opening photo makes me want to eat it right now, lol. The other food looks very tasty too. I'm about to make dinner of turkey and wild rice soup so I better get started. Your sunrise photos are very lovely too. What a wonderful sight to greet you when you wake. Have a safe weekend.
