3rd day of Chinese New Year 2022 (3rd of Feb). While the young men were still sleeping, the early risers (hubby and I) went out for our breakfast.
Sunrise at 7:20am
No morning walk for us for the whole week of Chinese New Year celebration.
Sunrise at 7:25am.
We had breakfast at one of our regular coffee shops.
I ordered 1 plain polo bun.
Hubby ordered pre-fried noodle (yee mee) in soup.
~~~~~
Lunch for 4 people.
Sweet Lips Fish from elder son's fishing trip.
I cut the fish into 2 halves. Even half the fish was too much for 4 of us. I steamed the top half and topped with blended ginger and garlic oil.
Beef slices cooked with king oyster mushrooms and fresh shittake mushrooms.
Three dishes including a plate of green (blanched choy fah) for dinner.
~~~~~
Dinner for 3 people.
Younger son going out for dinner with friends.
Minced meat with egg patties. This is something I which I haven't had for a long, long time. This is my childhood's favourite and also I used to cook for my sons.
Cabbage with beef slices.
Added the ladies finger harvested from my garden.
Simple dinner for 3 of us.
This mural shows 2 washer women signed by Kareem.
Dulang washers are usually women who pan for tin sediments at the water's edge.

That, by the way, is what baptism pictures for us:
In baptism we show that we have been saved from death
and doom by the resurrection of Christ;
not because our bodies are washed clean by the water but
because in being baptized we are turning to God and
asking him to cleanse our hearts from sin.
(1 Peter 3:21, The Living Bible-TLB)
Dunno what fish that is. So good your son goes fishing and comes home with fresh fish straight onto the plate.
ReplyDeleteThis fish is also new to me. My knowledge of fish is limited. I only know that fresh fish tastes good and don't have fishy smell. Ha ha.
DeleteYour homemade meals are the best! Love that steamed fish and egg patties.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteThat Steamed Sweet Lips Fish must be huge for you to use half only but still is too much for 4 pax. Your Fried Minced Meat looks tasty. Are they like the meat patties for burgers?
ReplyDeleteThe problem is not all 4 of us like fish. Hubby takes only small amount of fish. This egg + meat patties are very different from the burger's.
DeleteI've never heard of sweet lips fish before, but it looks good, a great catch! Lots of beautiful food today, thanks for sharing. Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThank you, Valerie.
DeleteLove pics!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Natiza.
DeleteWhat a sweet name for a fish!
ReplyDeleteThe patties look great - how do you do them?
Good mural, too. Hard work, am I thankful for the washing machine!
Thank you, Iris. Just add seasoning e.g. salt, soy sauce, pepper, etc. to the minced meat and then crack it a few eggs. There should have more eggs than meat. Put in some oil in the pan over medium low fire. Scoop some of the mixture with a small ladle. Then flip half over the other half, something like a pancake.
Delete...I'm with Iris, it's nice to have a washing machine.
ReplyDeleteI am also with you and Iris. Yes to the washing machine.
DeleteNever heard of sweet lips fish. We have a "sweet lips" wine, lol.
ReplyDeleteNice mural, thanks for participating in Monday Murals Nancy.
Both the fish and wine are lips smacking good. Lol! Thank you for hosting.
DeleteThat fish your son caught looks really nice, and I like the way you cooked it. The egg patties look good, too. Interesting art of Malaysia!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gigi. Have a good week.
DeleteAmen
ReplyDeleteThank you, RR.
DeleteSo interesting
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
DeleteBeautiful sunrise and beautiful food. I'm hungry now.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week, Nancy. ♥
Thank you, Sandee. Have a fabulous week too.
DeleteHello Nancy, :=) A wonderful days menu. I think I would enjoy, firstly the bun, it looks as though it might be sweet, and then the minced meat with egg patties.
ReplyDeletebut there is a great choice of food all of which look tasty, but I don't like seeing the head of the fish,even if it does have sweet lips!:=))
The polo bun is slightly on the sweet side. So sorry for showing the fish's head. Here, we usually serve our fish whole or with the head. Some enjoy eating the head.
DeleteI have never heard of Sweet Lips Fish -interesting. Looks like a nice fish, yum yum. Keep well Diane
ReplyDeleteThank you, Diane.
DeleteThe polo bun and soup look wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny.
DeleteThose are beautiful meals!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mimi.
DeleteI don't think I've ever heard of a sweet lips fish, I want to try it! - http://www.domesticgeekgirl.com
ReplyDeleteI will have to check out the proper name for this sweet lips fish.
DeleteSweet lips fish with it's head on still when eating it?? Is is sushi? I bought 1.45 lbs of salmon the other day. I am sure it will be delicious. I've not cooked it in awhile. Caught in Alaska by USA. Alaskan cod is good as well. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Beckyl. Sorry about the fish head. No, it is not sushi. It is steamed fish. Have a good week too.
DeleteSe ve muy rico el pescado te mando un beso.
