This was a Tuesday. A nice and cool lovely morning.
Starting our morning walk at 6:59am.
~~~~~
Breakfast in town at Restoran Tet Shin, Ipoh.
We ordered a plate of mee jawa to share. I request for extra sambal.
Next, I ordered some fried ingredients from the Hakka mee stall.
Peace Lily from my garden.
Afternoon sky at 1:08pm, expecting rain any time soon.
~~~~~
Lunch in Falim.
I ordered deep fried prawn fritters and enoki fritters and 2 prawn dumplings for us to share.
Plus 1 bowl of porridge for hubby.
~~~~~
Home cooked dinner.
I bought 4 very fresh black pomfret and I took out 2 to thaw. I wanted to imitate the steamed fish we had in Chemor which I posted here. I don't tilapia so I used black pomfret. This is my first time using black pomfret for steaming.
I rub a little salt over the fish. For the topping, I used chopped garlic and chopped pickled white radish (choy poh in Cantonese). I fried the chopped garlic and choy poh in a little oil, add a little sugar and oyster sauce. Remove from pan and place over the fish and steam for 8 to 10 minutes. My steamed fish lacked colour because I do not have chopped spring onion and chopped chilies. The steamed fish tasted almost like the one we had in Chemor.
Sauteed cabbage with garlic and salt.
This was our dinner with some steamed rice on a rainy evening.
Linking to Wordless Wednesday & My Corner of the World.
In bygone days he permitted the nations to go their own ways,
but he never left himself without a witness;
there were always his reminders - the kind things he did
such as sending you rain and good crops
and giving you food and gladness.
(Acts 14:16-17, The Living Bible-TLB)
It been a while since I done anything with cabbage.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Thank you, Dora. Even the price of cabbage has gone up.
DeleteI have not eaten cabbage in awhile. I did have some cauliflower but had to throw half of it away as I had not used it in over 2 weeks and fridge smelled bad as well as something else in there. Cabbage is good though. I was a bit rainy today, cooler days in afternoon. Freezing fog when I woke up on Sunday. We went to church early and had a bit of breakfast at the new gym at our church. Then worship service. So good to be there again, in the gym. I have a new job and hope I continue to have it. I like it but it's more to do than I expected. Will see what happens! Have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Beckyl. Hope you will be blessed with a good job. Stay warm, stay safe. Have a blessed week too.
DeleteThose fried foods look really inviting, but steamed pomfrets are my favourite.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteAll the food looks yum! Have a great day!

Thank you, Lovely. Have a great day too.
DeleteThe peace lily is lovely Nancy we have one growing inside and it's doing alright.
ReplyDeleteThe cabbage looks rather nice.
Thank you, Margaret.
DeleteCabbage food is tasty. My mom makes really good tasting cabbage rolls (in finnish kaalikääryle). The cabbage box is also good.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tarja. I haven't tried making cabbage rolls.
DeleteI sure would love that mee jawa, looks good. All the fried stuff and prawn fritters too!
ReplyDeleteSteamed black pomfret - we never do that even though the seller will tell me when there is a variety of black pomfret that is suitable for steaming, not all are suitable because of the smell. Usually we steam white pomfret but we are not that fond of its mild taste PLUS it is a lot more expensive.
We usually steam white pomfret and not the black ones. If really fresh, the black pomfret tastes just as good.
DeleteDo you have German roots? 6:59, LOL. I always took off 05:12 to arrive 05:45 at work.
ReplyDeleteThe fried food looks very tempting. Beautiful flower, too and the prospect of rain, ohhh...
Thank you, Iris. You go to work really really. What time do you need to start work?
DeleteSuch a difference between the morning and afternoon sky. The lily is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a lovely day.
DeleteYour colourful and varied food looks good. Love the photo, too. Have a great day! Valerie
ReplyDeleteThank you, Valerie.
DeleteCongrats on getting the taste you want for that fish. I don't remember whether or not I have eaten steamed dark pomfret fish because mostly get tilapia at shops. Love your Mee jawa. Wow! Is the sambal spicy or not?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. To me, the sambal is not very spicy.
Delete...the Peace Lily is lovely and what a wonderful name.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tom.
DeleteI cannot remember if I ever used black pomfret in steaming. Mostly white and silver pomfret as much more expensive, so steaming is the best for both.
ReplyDeleteFresh fish is good for steaming.
DeleteYour peace lily is beautiful. I love fried foods.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gigi. I too love fried foods.
DeleteDeep fried prawn fritters sounds interesting Nancy.
ReplyDeleteCruisin Paul
Thank you, Paul.
DeleteNancy,lhe lily of peace grows very well inside our houses.
ReplyDeleteI have seen them in color and they are very pretty.
Warm regards from Argentina
Thank you, Norma. I will try to grow them indoors.
DeleteOh the food. Delicious and I'm ever so hungry this morning.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, Nancy. ♥
Thank you, Sandee. Have a great day.

ReplyDeleteThank you, William.
DeleteMe gusta la col te mando un beso
ReplyDeleteThank you, JP.
DeleteDelightful Peace Lily and the sunrise too! Our sun is very late coming up right now! Take care and enjoy your meals!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kathe. Take care and stay safe.
DeleteFried enoki like that would be yummy! Easier to buy fried food rather than deal with an oily kitchen after deep-frying.
ReplyDeleteOh that is A LOT of choy poh/garlic on those fish.
Yes, lots of choy poh plus garlic on the fish. These make the dish very yummy.
DeleteAll the food looks delicious and that peace lily is so beautiful

Thank you, Julia.
DeleteThe weather isn't greatly different here as it rains anytime though it is monsoon, the rains aren't unexpected. The white-green of peace lily looks pretty!

ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa. Have a great weekend.
