Red Dragon Fruits & Minced Pork+Fish Paste Patties

This was 31st August, 2021. We celebrate Merdeka or Independence Day on 31st August every year.

Sunrise at 7:25am.
We didn't go for our morning walk.
We drove out to town to buy breakfast.
On the way back from town.
Top of Kledang Hill covered with low cloud.
We bought dry curry noodle with curry chicken + bbq pork from Kedai Kopi Yee Fatt.
The boss is very generous with the mint leaves.
Hubby doesn't like mint leaves so I happily took all.
I received 1 papaya and a comb of bananas from my neighbour when they returned from their shopping. Our sharing of food is done over the wall.
A good friend stopped by our house to give me 2 red dragon fruits. During this pandemic, we will share by delivering over the gate or at the gate.

Hubby doesn't like dragon fruit but I love it. I finished this big fruit for lunch all by myself.
~~~~~
Simple home cooked dinner.
Minced pork + fish paste + spring onion patties.
I made enough to bless my neighbour with some.
Blanched broccoli.
Drizzled with extra virgin oil and some soy sauce.
This was our no rice dinner.
After an early dinner, I had time to take these sunset shots at 7:25pm.
Ending this post with this lovely evening sky and sunset.

It is better to finish something than to start it.
It is better to be gentle and patient than to be proud and impatient.

  2. Minced paste and fish paste? They use that to make the Sibu Foochow siew mai, usually tenggiri, supposed to be nicer than just using meat. Bet I would enjoy your fritters.

  6. No rice dinner is good cos the patties and broccoli will just fill u up enough for the night. No need to have carbs from the rice. Love red dragon fruits. We are eating one daily. I like to eat dry curry noodles too as long as not too spicy. Your dry curry gravy covered all the noodles so is your noodle egg wanton noodles or yellow noodles or mihun kwayteow?

    1. Oh, its yellow noodle for hubby and kway teow for me. When it comes to tapau, it is better to have yellow noodle because the kway teow tends to stick together in a lump.

  7. I am with your husband regarding mint. I like it with some dishes, but not too much, otherwise it becomes overpowering for my taste. Sometimes it's good to skip the rice.

  8. Sounds ... nice (?) sharing over the gate.
    We had a (very expensive) dragon fruit in 2007. I even took pics.

    Good idea with the oil on the broccoli, I´ll keep that in mind!

    Good last words, too.

  9. Please don´t get me wrong, I also take pics of 10-cent noodles.
    But these were so special and like really expensive.
    Blogger drives me nuts. If you got this somehow twice.... please delete.

  18. Dragon fruit is good for the prostate... to avoid problems with enlarged prostate. Found this out last time so now I periodically buy these for my dad/hubby.
