Ma Jie Curry Noodle For Breakfast

This was last Wednesday.  As usual, we went for morning walk.

Bauhinia Kockiana blooms.
 After morning walk, we drove out to town for breakfast.

The olden days domestic Chinese maids from China were called "ma jie".
This snapshot with the low cloud and hills was taken at about 11.20am.

A dulang washer refers to a person who pans for tin ore or sediments at the water's edge. Historically, the Kinta valley was very rich in tin.


The man who knows right from wrong and
has good judgment and common sense is happier
than the man who is immensely rich!
For such wisdom is far more valuable than precious jewels.
Nothing else compares with it.
(Proverbs 3:13-15, The Living Bible-TLB)

    1. It is because the curry oil is not very red. The curry is quite mild and not very spicy.

    1. I got this plant many years ago. The nursery near my place has these plants for sale. If they do not have, we can give snapshot and name of plant to the seller and they will inform us when the plants are available.

  7. The Bauhinia Kockiana blooms are lovely. The curry noodles are delicious especially with pudina leaves. Do both of you like to eat the pudina leaves with the curry noodles?

  15. Las flores son preciosas y no recuerdo haberlas visto nunca por mi país; los fideos tienen una pinta riquísima,; y en cuanto a lo del estaño, siempre he sabido que los yacimientos más antiguos de este metal, estaban en China, pero, lo que no sabía era que se consiguiera por el sistema de bateo.
    Que disfrutes de una feliz semana.

  24. I almost confuse ma jie with samsui women (hong tou Jing) who are female Chinese immigrants who came to malaya and Singapore during 1920s and 1940s in search of construction work.
