Penang Lobak & Stewed Pork Rib For Lunch

Our morning walk will be on hold during this Chinese New Year holidays. Our sons were still sleeping so hubby and I went for our early morning breakfast.

Sunrise at 7:15am
~~~~~
Breakfast at our regular coffee shop.
My breakfast: Herbal tea and croissant.
Croissant sandwich with 2 slices of butter and kaya (coconut milk).
I didn't take snapshot of hubby's breakfast.
He ordered shredded chicken noodle (kai si hor fun).
~~~~~
Lunch.
Ready made Penang lobak aka "ngoh hiang" which I bought from our regular supplier. A pack of 6 rolls for RM15.
Pan fried to heat up the lobak, sliced and served with chili sauce.
Ready made stewed sour plum pork rib (bought from one of our regular restaurant). Steam to heat up. Very appetizing dish.
Sauteed sweet potato leaves with garlic and salt.
This was the only dish I cooked.
These ready made dishes saved me a lot of work in the kitchen.
Purple bougainvillea by the roadside, planted in front of the owner's house.


Everything is appropriate in its own time.
But though God has planted eternity in the hearts of men,
even so, many cannot see the whole scope of God's work
from beginning to end.
(Ecclesiastes 3:11, The Living Bible-TLB)

  2. My missus made her own ngor hiang for Chinese New Year, supposed to be auspicious eating those, maybe because of the golden colour. In my blogpost today!
