Sambal Tumis Stinky Beans With Prawns & Steamed Brinjals

This was a Thursday morning. Weather warm and hardly any breeze.

Dawn at 6:56am
Stop by the roadside to buy 1 packet of nasi lemak (rice cooked with coconut milk) and add 1 spicy sambal chicken drumstick.
Leftover fried wonton noodle.
Our shared breakfast.
Fragrant Gardenia bloom from my garden.
My simple lunch: Toast with marmalade jam and Bru coffee with nestum. Hubby went out to buy fried noodle (no photo to show).
Harvested 1 purple brinjal or eggplant or aubergine.
Also harvested 4 green brinjals.
~~~~~
Home cooked dinner
Sambal tumis Stinky beans and prawns. I used instant sambal tumis paste.
Steamed homegrown green and purple brinjals and drizzled with garlic oil, oyster and soy sauce.
I gave some angled luffa to my neighbour and they blessed us in return when they cooked the angled luffa.
Yummy and delicious dinner for 2 people.
Sunset at 7:43pm

I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.
I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me,
so that from the rising of the sun to the place of its setting
people may know there is none besides me.
(Isaiah 45:5-6, New International Version-NIV)

  4. That spicy sambal chicken drumstick looks like to die for, so nice!!! I love stinky beans!

    They do not sell those at the shops near my house though - predominantly Chinese/Foochow area. I guess they are not into petai so much...and I'm staying home, not going to the central and jungle produce market so there are things that we have to go without at this point in time.

    My daughter's brinjal is growing very well, plants look good but they do not bear any fruit, dunno why. So sad to see!!!

    1. Brinjal takes a longer time to fruit. Just need to be patient. The flowers come and go before they finally turn into brinjals.

    3. Fertilizing the plants will help too.

  8. Wah, your dinner is very flavourful with the sambal. I like the luffa dish best! Yum yummy! The sambal I guess cannot finish, right? Or both of you can finish the sambal? If I eat, sure my stomach at night will feel hot hot 🔥🔥🔥🥵
