Glutinous Rice Dumplings Coloured With Blue Pea

A friend delivered some home made glutinous rice dumplings to us before the dumpling festival. For the past few years she has been blessing us with her home made glutinous rice dumplings.

I steamed to heat up the dumplings for breakfast after we returned from our morning walk. The dumplings were not big, so I added 2 pieces of toast.
As you can see, half the rice used was blue (from the blue pea flower).
Very delicious and tasty dumpling.
Some of the ingredients used: Black eyed beans, dried shrimp, mushroom, diced pork, and etc.
Morning sky at 9:35am.
Hubby went out to buy Indian rice. The fried chicken from this stall is very popular with the locals. There used to be long queue but due to lockdown, the queue is shorter now.

Dinner
There was another portion of stewed chicken feet with mushroom in the fridge, which I heated up for dinner.
It tasted better after being kept overnight in the fridge.
Blanched home grown sweet potato leaves and 1 last long green okra, drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.
Simple dinner with noodle.
Bauhinia Kockiana blooms from my front garden.
This is the most attractive plant of my garden.


Kindness makes a man attractive.
And it is better to be poor than dishonest.
Reverence for God gives life, happiness,
and protection from harm.
(Proverbs 19:22-23, The Living Bible-TLB)

  1. The bright orange yellow colours of the flowers are so brilliant! Instantly will brighten our day to see it. I would love to eat your friend's home made blue dumplings. Does she sell them?

    1. Thank you, Mun. My friend doesn't sell the dumplings, just make them for own consumption and to share with friends.

  10. I LOVE the sky shot and the flowers! And those meals are so yummy! We are having extreme heat (right now the temperature is 43c and we are expecting it to get to 46 before the sun goes behind the mountain as we start to cool) and without central air conditioning, there is NO cooking happening her. It is so hot, the one local restaurant is closed. The good thing is the Lettuce, Broccoli, and carrots can be harvested from our garden, so we will have cold ham, cheese and salad for supper.

    1. When it is hot, I don't feel like cooking too. Salad sounds good especially with home grown greens.
